This has been my go-to for discovering new things to watch for 15 years. If something doesn't show up in the top-100 list, I'm generally unaware of it.

Use Claude Desktop? ( https://claude.com/download ) Personally, I much prefer the CLI. The CLI is a tool that has been refined for over 50 years to excel at text input and output. Once you learn it, it can feel like an extens

> if you believe your organs don’t die when you die, then don’t donate your organs? Because "I" don't know what "I" am. Am I a brain? Am I a soul? Am I the universe? I have no idea. Science currently has no idea.

Um... I, 220% disagree with that statement. I did edit to fix a spelling mistake, I did not add/remove content... I wish HN showed the edit history >:(

I think most people, and definitely myself, when they sign up to be an organ donor, they think of the liver, kidney, and heart. Things that will help other people. Not the brain, the center of conscience, being kept in some sort of horror-m

That's neat! I had no idea rclone supported iCloud now. Looks like they added support about a year ago[1]. Step-by-step instructions: https://rclone.org/iclouddrive/ I just tested, and it worked... rclone is such

You may want to reevaluate. Apple has a great PR (propaganda) department that has convinced many people they respect your privacy. In truth, they do not. They're "better" than Google, but only slightly. And only so slightly t

Shamelessly stolen from Wikipedia: Examples of games that use HJKL are the text-based "graphic" adventures like NetHack, the Rogue series, and Linley's Dungeon Crawl. It is also used by some players of the Dance Dance Rev

Ah, so you agree NFS is not fit for purpose (network file sharing), and I should use something else to share files over the network. EDIT (the above is a bit more snark than I intended, let me add a little more): NFS's direct (still wi

To be clear: I am not criticizing the use case in the article. It's a silly, fun, and creative hacking together of technology. I am criticizing NFS as a whole, and specifically its Linux implementation.

Sure, if you (the admin) have full control over the NFS server, the network, and the client devices, NFS can be secure with the help of Kerberos. But this isn't a simple thing. A Kerberos server needs to be set up, Kerberos clients nee

Usually, no. NFS defaults to "root_squash," which silently changes UID=0 to the UID of the `nfsnobody` user. However, in the /etc/exports file, you can (but shouldn't) add the share option "no_root_squash"

You're being downvoted, but, seriously... NFS is a joke for anything outside of an enterprise setup with a bunch of ancillary support services in place. The fact that NFSv4 has no concept of true "Authentication" and just bli

It's not a "switch" per-se (though some of the kits have realtime tuning switches to make more/less smoke on demand). It's a purposely poorly-turned engine + accelerator control. TL;DR: poor turning, and floor it (h
