I'm glad they released this feature. There are databases/services which require you to input the IP address to listen on instead of the network interface. This will greatly simplify configuring those services.

Thanks for the reply! Can I suggest adding some docs to Fly to run Flame apps? To cover the more complex aspects of integrating with Fly, such as running Flame machines with a different size compared to the parent nodes, what kind of fly.to

I have a question about distributed apps with FLAME. Let's say the app is running in 3 Fly regions, and each region has 2 "parent" servers with LiveViews and everything else. In that case, how should the Flame pools look like

A blanket ban on cell phones in schools will hamper teachers and staff too. Plus, the usual reason why jamming is illegal in most countries: dialling emergency numbers!

Slightly off-topic, but just wanted to mention, the author of the post is the creator and developer of Polypane [0]. I've been using Polypane for the last few months (got a student discount with the GitHub Student Pack) and it's

Perhaps a better design could be two number fields clearly demarcating the two halves of the value. Plus, you cannot fill more than digits after the decimal place for most currencies, so IMO the design they went with (even though it is done

Banks in my country send all sorts of emails with "scammy" subjects, and then when you open them their banner says "Don't fall for such scams" or "Scams start this way". Maybe if they added an option to op

Oh I meant the Fire TV 4K streaming stick, not their actual Fire TVs. Their naming has become really confusing. They used to call the previous ones Fire TV Sticks, but I think they dropped the "Stick" from the name in the recent v

Not exactly. A cursory glance of this [0] Wikipedia article shows that the Presidential Election term is usually 4, 5, or 6 years long. For so many countries to be holding an election in the same year is quite unlikely. And even if the numb

A reasonably priced serverless (kinda) setup is possible on Fly.io. Fly charges for a VM by the second, and when a VM is off, RAM and CPU are not charged (storage is still charged). They also allow you to easily configure shutting down mach

There's no Reduce White Point on Mac as far as I am aware. However, you can use the fantastic Lunar [0] app to achieve this, as it supports "Sub-Zero Dimming". To use it, I think you just need to start Lunar, and then press t

Drawing over other apps is a problem too. On my OnePlus, I just checked, there are 23 apps with the permission to draw over other apps, but only 3 of those are the ones I've explicitly allowed. 20/23 apps are Google, OnePlus, or A
