If your house loses its value to zero as you suggest Bitcoin to become a random number, your house is in a terrible condition that no one can live.

How do you solve decentralized store of value without random people competing for its legitimacy?

It's also the tech with largest misunderstanding of its value in HN. 13 years of existence without a center figure shilling for the most part, it's still holding as a way to store value without any central authority and more appli

Those TA is nothing but bullshit. Everytime it hits that "support level", they talk about the next one, like, ever since breaching $50k and they don't account for anything but Bitcoin's activity and not the bigger pictur

Just disable Zopfli which is the most time consuming compression method and typically they compress at an instant.

Can we just go back to good old days and stop with animations to bring the content from all directions which is even slow enough I get blank screen for a few seconds as I scroll down which really reduces the readability.

Not sure why you need a separate NTP client running when systemd has systemd-timesyncd.

HTML can't be fixed with a small trick like that. Just use templating engine like Pug and get away with most of the annoyances. It's concise about what part of the text is covered by a certain tag due to forced indentation, not to

What I value is the ease of deployment through docker repository ecosystem and not exactly about containerization.

I wish apps are written in more RAM friendly languages like Go. I don't have enough RAM to run all those Java tools. (Metabase, Sentry etc)

It's not too wrong to say Safari is the new IE being the anomaly of all.

If the format is meant to be the next defacto standard, wish they made the name more distinguishable. People without fully understanding it will abbreviate to JPEG as well and definitely cause confusion.

I actually thought I had missing packages that I use via Homebrew on FreeBSD packages but I was surprised that it's covered pretty well now. I guess it's only Docker that bothers me then.

Talk is easy. People weigh practicality over theoretical perfection.

It'll just be sad to see apps like VMware or Parallels release a new version claiming they made a breakthrough after you've made some milestone release...

I guess the only advantage of FreeBSD is that it's got a permissive license for them to not open up the modification sources which can be a primary concern for corporates.

I'm tired of hearing theoretical awesomeness but is there actually any practical awesomeness about FreeBSD? FreeBSD just lacks the modern tooling environment that is Homebrew and Docker and I no longer even consider using FreeBSD as a

Most are hobby projects that don't even look any good. I'm using Wiki.js and it's customizable navigation menu is much better with wiki as a starting site.

I think you got that wrong. Speed isn't a bottleneck anymore and you won't get much better experience. This is same as phones. Soon, they'll have to be more creative for people to consider buying every few years. I wish MBA s
