I, for one, would like to see an ISP dedicated enough and tecnically able to inject ads in my FTP stream. :)

Sure! You mean writing documentation, aligning divs, writing tests, caring for the infrastructure, right?

I'm not sure I understand your point. First, older generation having lower IQ than newer is neither the Flynn effect nor its reversal. The Flynn effect compares historical test results to current ones; not old people vs young people bu

I'm certain there is a lot more very good content on YT than anywhere on TV, but that's unfortunately not the content that google is pushing toward the users. (Yes, I'm aware that they push whatever the users click onto and w

This explains too little. I remember TV before corporate dominance and it was nowhere as bad as cable-TV. It's hard to believe but initially the content was much thoughful, with actual cultural gems produced for it. Then that content g

It's even worse than that: in some circles, kids are expected to be ignorant, or expected to be emotionless, or mean to each others, or asocial etc. We became mostly what was expected from us, with little variations. Once you've

Just did. Couldn't do it from the iphone because it insists on reinstalling apple's mail app for every email links. BTW, I believe you can leave an email on your profile, not sure if advisable though.

Also, thank you so much for allowing an actual purchase!

Thank you, this looks nice and useful, will definitively give it a try. For now, the only thing to report is that some screens are too long for my iphone7 and therefore I'm missing the end of a few sentences here and there. Would send

And each of those are just thin wrappers around curl I guess. We should be glad that some good free software could be produced in the past to serve as the foundation for today's greed.

It's not about failure, it's about servicing the host running etcd or the network around it.

These days AI just obsequiously praise whatever stupid ideas the human throw at them, which encourage humans into hallucinating breakthroughs. But it's only a matter of time before AI gets better at prompt engineering. /s?

I don't get the point of benchmarking k8s without the guarantees of etcd. At some point, you are just competing with clusterssh.

I do not disagree, but just for the record, that's not what the article is about. They migrated to Hetzner cloud offering. If they had migrated to a bare metal solution they would certainly have enjoyed an even larger increase in perf

The title should have been "...from AWS and DigitalOcean". If it were only from AWS, they would probably also have mentionned a drastic reduction of API complexity.

e-waste is very much linked with over-production, of which any particular product taken in isolation, be it iphone or tomatoes, is of course insignificant, the issue being the economy at large not iphones or Apple. I don't know what&#x

"Drowning in e-waste" was a metaphor for "slowly destroying the conditions for civilisation with the violent obsession for more fossil fuel and more minerals to extract".

There is an important element in 1984 that is missing from BNW and very relevant to modern history: the never-ending fictious war between several similar regimes to justify internal control. In my opinion, the movie "Brazil" (insp

In all honesty, there are three topics I try to refrain myself from engaging with on HN, often unsuccesfully: politics, religion, and rust. I don't know what you had to go through before reaching rust's secure haven, but what you

Not the one you asked, but since I share the exact same feeling, and for what it's worth: I used to reach for Qt when I needed a complex desktop app, the kind of app with a high density of widgets, controls and information, great care
