Stop switching around between hardware cost and yearly cost, jesus... (pa means per annum ) 0.7PB on Amazon S3 costs $810k for 3 years (as per their cost calculator). Renting 1.4PB raw from Hetzner costs about $270k for 3 years. Running 1.

Your cost estimates are outlandish, making Amazon S3 look like a bargain. In reality 1.4PB raw will set you back well below $50k/pa, not $239k/pa. If you're lazy you could even rent 1.4PB raw from e.g. Hetzner and you'

Amazon SES rocks from a pricing standpoint but deliverability isn't its strong suit. Huh? Are you sure you have configured it correctly, including DKIM? We're using SES a lot (both transactional and campaigns) and never had a pr

Her lack of empathy is absolutely staggering. And, "if I had kids, I wouldn't tell jokes"? Seriously? Did you read to the end, about her childhood? She quite obviously has mental issues. The guy simply shouldn't have g

I never understood this desire to "back up" the internet. It's an impossible endeavour and will only become more incomplete as the net grows. And 99,999% of the data "backed up" will never be looked at. What's

How is that news? This kind of stuff has been done since the 70s or even earlier. You can buy commercial cockroach control kits, including iOS and Android Apps for remote control; https://backyardbrains.com/products/rob

Congrats. That may be the dumbest bitcoin-related headline ever created (and the competition wasn't weak to begin with).

I don't know. It simply works for me ever since I installed it (on linux and OSX) so I never bothered to check for updates.

I ran unison for a while but the conflict resolution was unfortunately lacking. It repeatedly stopped sync'ing properly until I intervened manually. A few months ago I switched to csync[1], which looks better so far. [1] https:/&

You keep talking about "discovery". I don't want to be discovered. I don't want my Signal identity to be tied to any phone number.

I don't want to get any number. I want to have any number of throw-away accounts active in parallel on every device. Just as with jabber, e-mail, IRC and every other open messaging technology.

by moe 12y ago
I agree with 13. There needs to be a way to have an account that is not tied to a SIM card or any kind of phone number. I'm frankly astonished there's even a debate about that.

And just as Cocoa abstracts this away from you any popular Nim frameworks that need such optimisations will also abstract them away from you.

All the time. Some people need these kind of optimisations all the time. Most people don't need them even once in their entire life.

I don't see anything wrong with writing security software that is insecure as long as you don't pretend it is secure.... Except this one very much pretends to offer protection, apparently oblivious of the problems with their des

This is true for every kind of software except security things. It's really hard for a novice to find something that will actually protect them in between all the "convenient cloud solutions" that an intern cobbled together
