Incredible to see this play out here and good to see that this got unflagged now. I only saw this earlier (while this submission was still flagged) due to someone somewhere else mention that https://news.ycombinator.com/acti

Cloudflare seems to be the only company in the world where sales does not want to speak to you. So if Arroyo becomes part of the Cloudflare Enterprise offering, dont get your hopes up to be able to use it. Except maybe if you are already a

Matplotlib is a bit painful. Often seaborn will work quicker, especially when using Pandas dataframes with proper column names and seaborn compatible layout. Its annoying that you cannot create a broken axis out-of-the box, but I am sure yo

I have been using Claude this week the first time for a _slightly_ bigger SwiftUI project than just a few lines of bash or SQL I used it before. I have never used swift before but I am amazed how much Claude could do. It feels to me as we a

This project seems to be building on top of Multiboard [0], which is a lattice that is used as a base to mount all those runners and equipment holders on. So the idea is that you put a lattice up with "a few" screws and then you c

The ACLs might look a bit scary at first, but they are actually quite intuitive once you coded up a rule or two. It basically works by tagging machines (especially those deployed with an API key) and grouping users. Then you set up rules wh

Has this solution been audited? In particular, is it safe to replay attacks by actors listening in to the network traffic? Also from the diagram it looks like the secret key is stored unencrypted on the server, or do I read it wrong?

This is probably a naive question because I am not local, but how usual are wild fires during the winter? There seems to be snow large parts of the US and freezing temperatures. In LA it is currently 8°C (46°F), which is not freezing, but a

There are two types of good books: short ones, and longer ones with indicies and summaries after each chapter. Then there is the other 95%. Or is it 99%? Its hard to write a good book. That makes them so valuable.

Thank you so much for your suggestion. I tried just yesterday to explain to a kid how software can model and optimise something they were interested in. But I lost them really fast. But maybe I should be looking into their syllabus more so

I totally agree with this. From an academic perspective this makes total sense. But they will keep asking why "why would I want to do this?" until they see a real-life impact.

Thank you! I have tried this, and it works to some extend with the parents. Because I can probe them about their work and interests and point out all the way software is involved. But that leaves the kids out in the cold. Because they dont
