Problem is there are people who buy tickets for each and every draw for years. That amounts for not so trivial amount of money - would be much better for them if they put it in savings account or basically anything else.

Downside is “elsewhere” is going to cut your reach when you post a link because they want their users to stay in their estate.

Not as pinnacle of good - but pinnacle of “you don’t have to think, just scroll, occasionally like something” ;). Then people expect accounting software to be just login click one or two buttons.

I believe most of it is people expecting stuff to work differently, not having time to wrap their head around proper usage of system, because they need specific outcome and they don't need mastery of the tool. Downside is that "Fa

Not everyone is a chef. I guess 80% of people in the world have poor technique for cutting stuff but they mostly get away not cutting themselves because they have dull knives.

I agree. There was a long thread here where people were arguing about this topic. My take is that people saying sharp knives are safer don’t understand how average people are using knives. Totally different than in restaurant setting or ‘se

Neat part is that’s my local network and I don’t want to spend time doing that. I’d much rather spend time arguing about it on HN. That’s the neat part of “it is my time” and I want to use it the way I want. It doesn’t apply to stuff I publ

XD I can yeah it is easy but I have 20 years of experience. I don’t want to spend time setting that up. For less technically capable people you just lost them in first sentence.

Just wait a bit and there will be some TLS denialism spawning here. For a lot stuff on my local network I don’t want the hassle and there are loads of use cases in local networks for normal people to just have port 80 no certs on something

I think it was just any laptop with i9 just bad CPU for a laptop. I had dell and swapped it as soon as was possible to i7. I think they just made those only because they knew there will be enough people thinking “bigger better CPU == better

Mostly it is that you don’t go around fixing random stuff. You might actually get in trouble picking up stuff that is not a priority. Company I work for is less strict so we do “fix anything Friday”. But for some other companies you might g

That’s a bit of evergreen topic. “stop bloating web with js” comes up fairly often and there are those people who think they found a solution and everyone should start using whatever they imagine is “best for everyone”. In my opinion most o

I think you want ZSTD instead of GZIP nowadays.

This should be the most upvoted answer. Yeah there are are startups where head guys don’t know that and developers jump the gun because they feel like they’re ones that have the best understanding of the issue at hand. But of course that’s

About apps done by software houses, even though we should strive for doing good job and I agree with sentiment... First argument would be - take at least two 0's from your estimation, most of applications will have maybe thousands of u

FTFY: Explain to me how you self-host a git repo without spending any money and having no budget which is accessed millions of time a day from CI jobs pulling packages.

If you look from perspective of vulnerability assessment, it kind of is.

It is easier to write your own code than to understand someone’s else code. It would be much better if we get more humble people who get down to work to understand why and how existing code or framework works instead of trying to work aroun

I think someone just got free marketing materials to promote the redaction tools. Now much more people will be aware of the issue.

This is a curse of lots of software companies: ** mini-frameworks is a realization of the creator's mental model, but it's not everyone's mental model** People being smart enough to make their own understanding work well - bu

Person asking above question explains he doesn’t understand so I guess he also doesn’t understand prosecutors, lawyers, law enforcement, judges make mistakes. So yes this is best explanation. Revealing everything might bring great harm to i

Typical software developer fallacy - well it looks the same so we can abstract and merge concept. Well NO lock file and SBOM formats are used for different purposes and are to be consumed by different audiences. They will evolve in differen

by ozim 10mo ago
Second that. It is trivial to add SBOM generator to your pipeline - it is not trivial to make all kind of package managers to switch and each format is used for different audiences.

by ozim 10mo ago
You forgot about the important one SBOMs are created with thought about sharing them with third parties like your customers - lock files not.

I smell vaporware. Formal verification is easy on easy stuff like simple functions - complex functions it might be impossible. Then you most likely will get bunch of snake oil salesmen promising that you can verify full system…
