Easy to configure, straightforward and intuitive. Clear and detailed documentation. Recently, I wanted to try HAProxy, but I gave up because I got lost in the config, and I don't trust AI agents to do things I don't understand.

My point exactly. It lasted 12 days. How much did it cost? How much you think would cost 5 years of war with Iran? And how much did sanctions cost Iranians (economy + lives) past 40 years. Afghanistan war costed 2t for 20 years of war. That

And cookie banners are what exactly? That's right, you ask users to consent to use cookies to track them. Thus, cookie banners are REQUIRED because you can't run a business without any insight into how your users use your product.

No. I wouldn't. Because it makes it easier for the stronger power to dominate without hot wars. Sanctions cost the U.S. very little when used against Iran, but for Iranians they are extremely hard and disproportionately expensive. A ho

Sanctions don't work. Syria didn't collapse because of sanctions, but because of a very long civil war and, more importantly, a sudden imbalance in external forces (Russia was preoccupied with Ukraine). I don't think there ha

It does mandate cookie banners. The client I worked for on the last project got fined because they were missing a cookie banner. The solution is much simpler - ban targeted ads. The entire purpose of collecting user data is to deliver targe

It is the same argument as with apartheid South Africa; I don't buy it. Even today, 80y after WW2, jews are (rightfully) fighting to return their real estate, etc confiscated during the war. Those exchanged multiple owners, but ultimat

I tried it multiple times and never felt it was as good as people claimed it to be. Not sure if anything changed lately, but from the screenshots, I get the same vibe. Used Ubuntu for the last 15y, but now tried Arch (omarchy) with hyprland

Israel was formed on violence, just like this. Even more brutal, if you read the history books. Why do you support country founded on so much hate and violence? First prime ministers of Israel were well known terrorists.

Good to know. Many people recommend ThinkPads, but my experience has been with Dell. In the future, I might consider a ThinkPad or a Framework laptop.

This is interesting to hear. I bought Nvidia because I thought they had better drivers and have a lot of support for AI and stuff, but now, in retrospect, this seems like a bad idea.

You simply can't compare anything to MacBooks. I had a Dell that I paid about $2,000 for, and it was really good (or so I thought). Then at work, I got a MacBook Pro, and that's when I saw the difference. Its not only the Pros, n

They patched the issue, didn't they? Here we are talking about hardware issue that can cause physical harm to people, companies must eat that cost. Same way Samsung did by recalling exploding Galaxy Note a few years ago

It doesn't matter. If a customer buys faulty hardware, it's the seller's responsibility to replace it with working hardware. If the breaks had a manufacturing defect, you wouldn't expect the customer to pay for the repla

Recently, I have been increasingly associating Palantir with the 'Samaritan' from Person of Interest, an evil entity monitoring everyone in the digital world, collecting data, and selling it to authoritarian regimes.

One. Continue. For each you mention, I can think of 10 other well-known web apps that don't use them. 90% of the web doesn't use those 2. That's the fact.

They are perhaps #1 and #2 in the "enterprise" market share, but in no way are they overall #1 and #2. Not even close. Which web app or startup uses them?

Not likely. They open sourcing the Copilot UI is the way to kill further attempts to fork. Now you don't have to fork to have features you could get only by forking and maintaining the fork. The amount of work to make a Cursor competit

Well I saw vibe coders commit .env files with real credentials to public repository, but I didn't see anyone blaming Git for allowing .env or secrets to be commited in the first place.
