It's also very easy to use, it's just a normal VPN. You open the app and hit connect and you're connected. Outline is also very easy to add new regions to, you can deploy a VPN anywhere AWS, GCP, or Digital Ocean have data ce

It's private in that it's your own VM you're running the VPN on. No one else has access to it. Whether you trust Google or not, it's all open source[1]. [1] https://github.com/Jigsaw-Code/outline-ser

Outline[1] is significantly easier to use. They have out of the box support for AWS, GCP and Digital Ocean. You can have your own VPN setup on digital ocean for $5 a month, and you can generate keys and share the VPN with friends/famil

> selling $15k servers that are $10k in parts Have you seen what a DGXA100 costs? It starts at $199k for 8 40GB A100's, which have a list price of $10k each. So the GPU costs are $80k. What do you get for the extra $120k? 1TB ram, 2

I actually enjoy these kinds of benchmarks. They're both incentivized to show their own platforms running in the most optimal setups and they're also incentivized to call out any BS from the other party. In the end users get to se

I'm not sure what you're seeing but you're definitely not seeing genuine AirTags 5 for $13. More likely you're seeing the AirTag holders for that price.

The problem with this is that you don't know what the licensing will be when/if they open source it. So you could start using it now and they might change their mind and choose not to open source it or it might be a restrictive li

Is this closed source? I just assumed that a new programming language would be open source but I don't see any links to GitHub or any other place. The getting started page also requires you to put in your name and contact information.

The Verge is a Vice publication. It’s the same company. If Vice goes bankrupt so does The Verge and to be frank I think more people on HN are familiar with The Verge than they are Vice.

It depends what the definition of monopoly is. What Apple does with first party vs third party apps on iOS is pretty much exactly the same as what Microsoft did to Netscape. For example Apple Music is pre-installed and enjoys special featur
