/u/kapitanjakc, are your friends in US or EU or APAC? The market is reacting to global events, as we live in an uncertain time after a full and half decade of unprecendented innovation and prosperity. If I understood my parents co

Careful with Loki if you ever plan to export logs out of it. It can export limited logs based on very very limited time range and search range over long time is PITA if your log volume is fairly medium to high. That being said, if it is set

Correct. I experimented by varying the data volume, it was linearly correlated by x2 of data volume.

Tried this for my own homelab, either I misconfigured it or it consumes x2(linearly) memory(working) of the stored data. So, for example, if I put 1GB of data, seaweed would immediately consume 2GB of memory constantly! Edit: memory = RAM

Kudos! It actually looks great and polished. Also, an ubiquitous UI mimicking the MacOSX aesthetics and usage of larger padding actually is nice due to the new high resolution monitors we see everywhere these days. The stock people photos a

Sadly, most people don't care or understand these "tech whiz" things. Here in our little corner of EU, I see massive Chrome adverts everywhere about how convenient it is to save your password in chrome password manager, sync

Lets be honest, the number of HNish folks running Firefox is insignificant, compared to number of people using Firefox because their friends recommended it. So even if lets say 1% of the users(HN and similar folks) perform an outcry and go

I suspect that some more data has been breached than Wise wants to disclose, but the bad practices in industry does not surprise me. It could be that the card provider for wise is at fault here and not wise directly but the fact that charge

A hobby project does not necessarily have to be needed or valuable to everyone. The learning experience of the author is much more valuable.

I suppose it is the same concept as gumroad vendors. Most of them simply put an s3 url behind the gumroad paywall. Once you are done buying, the s3 url can be shared with anyone.
