We can of course host our code elsewhere, the problem is the community is kind of locked-in. It would be very "expensive" to move, and would have to be very worthwhile. So far the math doesn't support that kind of change. Usu

Of course they're down while I'm trying to address a "High severity" security bug in Caddy but all I'm getting is a unicorn when loading the report. (Actually there's 3 I'm currently working, but 2 are pat

The autonomous vehicle should know what it can't know, like children coming out from behind obstructions. Humans have this intuitive sense. Apparently autonomous systems do not, and do not drive carefully, or slower, or give more space

Hmm, I'm getting "Failed to request WebGPU adapter. No compatible adapter found. This may occur if no GPU is available or WebGPU is disabled." but brave://flags reports that WebGPU is "Hardware accelerated.&quo

LE has 2 primary production data centers: https://letsencrypt.status.io/ But in general, one of the points of ACME is to eliminate dependence on a single provider, and prevent vendor lock-in. ACME clients should ideally sup

It's less about IP address transience, and more about IP address control. Rarely does the operator of a website or service control the IP address. It's to limit the CA's risk.

We've supported it for about a year!

It works, but as another comment mentioned there may be quirks with IP certs, specifically IPv6, that I hope will be fixed by v2.11.

Don't rockets also start with the same horizontal velocity though, since nothing canceled it out when it got off the launch pad? It would be like jumping, and finding yourself ~250-400 meters away from where you lept by the time you la

Discover (Card/Bank) also announced recently that they are stopping their dark web report service. I wonder if they just used Google, or if it's a coincidence...

I get the whole scarcity thing -- and I've even asked Andrew about this -- because if I'm willing to give him my money after saving up for it, but it sells out first, wouldn't he make more money if he took mine then? But, I g

Great question. Servers should ship with secure defaults.

Make Error Messages Great Again (Sorry, I hate that it has a political reference, but it's really how I feel about this. How the heck is that error message supposed to mean anything to anyone?)

I am stuck in this loop as well. All devices, all attempts to clear cookies, log out and back in, etc, don't work.

Thanks for the mention! Indeed, big fan of the idea of Perkeep, and its authors (I learned a lot about writing network code in Go from reading from Brad Fitzpatrick's contributions.) Where Perkeep uses a super cool blob server design t

I definitely increase my font size, so I'm not straining my eyes. Any monitor with a lower than about 120 PPI causes me strain, unless I really boost the size. For example I read HN at anywhere from 150-200%.

I remember learning about Asimo in grade school. It felt like the future! Robots would be assisting me in daily life when I grew up. Then like the space shuttle, it just disappeared. I feel like there was Asimo.... and then nothing for deca

I believe it's being returned by the FS driver, not mmap() necessarily. I think I knew what instruction it was when I was debugging it but don't remember right now. (I could probably dig through my LLM history and get it though.)

I'd love to be wrong, but the address it's referring to is the correct address from the error / stack trace. I honestly don't know anything about this. There's no search results for my error. ChatGPT and Claude and

Just this month, I've learned the hard way that some file systems do not play well with mmap: https://github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3/issues/1355 In my case, it seems that Mac's ExFAT driver is incompat

I got my amateur radio license last year, and this is precisely why I haven't been able to do much with it: seemingly all the guides, even the license study materials, use vocabulary I'm not familiar with. I have two CS degrees an

The extended standard lib is pretty great, but definitely can't keep the Go compatibility promise, so it's good that it's separate.

Hey HN. Thanks for all the love and feedback. It's kind of a bittersweet decision; turning off notifications feels like closing your windows so you have to deliberately go outside to see what's going on. I like having the windows

I dunno. M1 might be fine, I just haven't tested it with an M1. If you enable semantic features, it does use a large model (not necessarily an LLM) for embeddings; but regardless it will generate thumbnails for images and videos, and t

That's just the joy of Go. But, I do wish I could have made this one a perfectly static application. I don't know if it is possible.
