Interesting point! I never thought of the content as being non-scarce before. Do you feel copyright laws don't apply, or?

> I have a subscription to a number of news sites. I actually pay for their content. My ad-blocker still blocks a bunch of banners, trackers, and various other bits and bobs. Exactly. This is my point: the ad industry is abusive.

Ad networks run code on my system in order to render an advert. I block this as I did not consent to this, as the practices are abusive and go beyond the rendering of the advert (privacy concerns, big brother, censorship, etc.) Not wanting

LTT's “AdBlockers are piracy” is a tone deaf remark

All or nothing though, eh? :P But seriously I see your point, but would the cost (economic, social, environmental) of developing a launch tech that could get the mass out of the atmosphere without rockets, heading towards the sun, not be be

This could be a stupid question, but could we not literally fire this stuff into the sun? My science be bad, forgive me.

I actually totally agree with your approach, but not the technology stack choice. I think if you're at the MVP/solo-team stage then a single server that you push the app too with Ansible/Puppet Bolt, run via systemd, and then

Orchestration engines can give you a lot of leverage if you run a managed solution because all you're doing there is deciding on the size you need and providing a credit card number. This is absolutely a great way of your DevOps to the

I've come from bare metal, to virtualisation, to Cloud. I then went from AutoScaling Groups and AMIs to K8s and Docker Images. Recently I went from K8s to Nomad+Consul and Docker Images. Now I'm building a small platform to host a

I'm building my own education platform around getting people into IT and towards a career in Cloud and DevOps. A few months back I built a Nomad based cluster with Consul and was like: wow! This is super cool... but it's also expe

Is it? Is it that simple? I write a book about the suffering of a particular minority. The book sells internationally and earns awards. My name becomes recognised globally. Someone buys many copies of the book, modifies them to say the oppo

This is exactly why I both love and hate CI/CD. Ultimately most CI/CD setups are basically systems administrators with privileged access to everything, network connected and running 24/7. It's pretty dangerous stuff. I d

Ironically if you stick to a certain set of the HTML, CSS and JS specs - and keep things simple - you'll never have to deal with browser-craft at all. Your code will just do the job of getting content rendered in a browser and it'

But how many systems do we really need here, though? Where do you draw the line? Can I have an RSS feed that's updated automatically when someone says something in IRC? I'll just sub to the RSS feed, but only if it also converts t

Oh, I know! I have a tonne of assets already. They just all feel disjointed and I'm bad at lighting :P

Solarus looks utterly amazing. Thank you for directing me to that. LUA, too! So easy! Thank you :-)

On another note https://generateworlds.com/ doesn't support HTTPS. If you need help getting a TLS certificate in place I'd be happy to help.

Amazing work. I'm not a very visually creative person. I want to be able to make virtual worlds but the assets are the problem for me. I think this will help alleviate that issue so thank you. Bought a copy. (I really want a little RPG

At last, a constructive response to something on Hacker News. Thank you. I might consider a back up to Discord, but in my game the best back up available is a mailing list. That's my goal for the commercial side of my community engagem

You're still missing the bigger point: whether you're using Discord or IRC (as a service or not) if the server/network is taken away from you, your entire community has to almost start from scratch or pick up the pieces regar

OK Mr. Dramatic. I’ll be careful that my community about DevOps doesn’t make any TF2 bots.

I started using IRC when I was 12. I'm 37 now. I owe a lot to IRC. I learned a tonne from some good people, ran several of my own servers which led me to HTTP, FTP and more. I stopped using IRC full time about five years ago when I rea

I'm actually really glad to hear that Discord is the popular platform among young adults. I run an educational/professional Discord server so this has me thinking I'm in the right place to help teach people about my industry.

It's pretty annoying, but now I've got the dock every problem I've had has melted away. Woohoo!
