Not speaking on behalf of PSF, but to me, it looks like a no-go, as some packages are maintained, legitimately, by people from sanctioned countries, with no way to pay any amount outside their country.

Here is my take, as a person who attended multiple photo editing courses from professional award-winning photographers: * Shooting intentionally for further processing is not the same as shooting for the best out-of-camera look. * One needs

1. Thanks for partially (in paragraph 4 but not paragraph 5) preempting the obvious objection. Distinguishing between disk reads and writes is very important for consumer SSDs, and you quoted exactly the right metric in paragraph 4: reducti

User here, who also acts as a Level 2 support for storage. The article contains some solid logic plus an assumption that I disagree with. Solid logic: you should prefer zswap if you have a device that can be used for swap . Solid logic: zr

Prediction: there will appear new "Made in the USA" routers that differ from some Chinese model only by the label. Already the case in Russia for e.g. powerbanks.

Exactly. And look, the linked Python script only solves one problem: making both firewalls believe that the party behind them is the one who initiated the connection. Address/port mangling is not addressed at all, both public addresses

No, it isn't. Many middleboxes (including OpenWrt by default) drop unsolicited inbound TCP connections even on IPv6, and therefore the same hole-punching algorithm is needed. The hole being punched is in the stateful firewall's co

On HN, I sometimes used AI to change the tone of my comments - e.g., to add sarcasm or extra-polished corporate-speak for comical effect. OK, now I won't.

Another issue is that it discards the color pair if the generated coordinates fall outside 100% sRGB. The problem here is that many low-end laptop displays cover significantly less than 100% sRGB, but come with the correct primaries in the

It's worse. The code contains a function that, given the target ΔE, generates two colors in floating-point Oklab representation, separated by that distance. But there is no check whether the two generated colors end up rounding to exac

There is another correct way. Denote the general topic, ask it to ask you questions that would be needed to write it. Discard the final output, write something yourself based on what it asked. Example (minus the final review): https:/
