All that to hide hostnames from your ISP? Again, what a load of sham.

Why is HN so against people who _enjoy_ engineering? Why should I run some run-of-the-mill stack that has enourgmous legacy cruft and just not "fun". Not every business wants to be sillicon-valley optimized money farm - some peo

379€ - wow, that's an absurd amount of money for personal software. Include that with every tutorial being priced too and having to buy synths and samples etc this turns into one expensive hobbie.

What are these possibilities? You only get IP and client side information that client is _willingly_ sending to you. So if a script/user/bot/etc tells it's Firefox from 1.2.3.4 then all you know that it's a request

Google has an effective monopoly on search engine market - you _can't realistically_ block google from scraping your website. They have this power and they are abusing it. Also robots.txt is bullshit, if a person can access a public we

I mean it should. That is also a huge anti-competitive action that just isn't pursued by anyone yet: google makes money of scraping and denies scrapers scraping them - that's all sorts of messed up. The problem is that someone wou

A lot of "bot protection" systems have javascript proof of work (like cloudflare) which is just laughable. It has come to the point where you have to add a delay on proof of work solution since your bot solves it much faster than

by kabacha 7y ago
That's not very relavant to my proposed problem. Here's an immaginary scenario: recaptcha blocks all crawlers except google's ones, how are competitors supposed to compete if they can't crawl anything despite robots.txt

by kabacha 7y ago
Could anti-competitive suit be raised towards google regarding their reCaptcha? They aiming to have (if not already) a crawler blocking tool that obviously doesn't block their own crawler. Doesn't that sound a bit dystopian?

What a ridiculous claim. Of course there is finished software. If you need a subscration calculator what do you do when it can do substraction? Add addition? That's how we end up with this disgusting bloated software world we live in.

This is a such a weird niche. Personally I love "business card" websites but I feel that this is not a correct way to approach this. Why stick with this weird format instead of some responsive grid/flex design? Why only limit

Can confirm, am running Kitty too and ran into exact same error messages, exporting different TERM environment variable did fix this though!
