I fundamentally disagree with most of your points. It might work for a usecase you have in mind but in general, it can't work. And it assumes that the world is a perfect place where the incentives are aligned and that ISPs cooperates a

You know, like they already did previously? It is utterly insane to me how onshape even consider luring folks in again after absolutely ruin their userbase and community. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9hmi1leU2s

Sure they have, the pandemic was a huge, but temporary, issue. Something more capital wouldn't necessarily have helped with either.

It is kind of relevant, we have zigbee. Which is a bit quirky, along comes Thread that promises to make it more open, better compatibility between vendors and more modern. If it turns out that big companies use Thread in a way to oppose tho

This was before freebsd used openzfs, maybe easier now. But my point still stands, you are off the beaten track at a time when you want to minimize risks. Comment on this thread to this effect, didn't know about the encryption issues:

I'd really love something like this. I really suffer if I get too hot, but I just can't imagine these being effective enough to make a difference. Maybe the fact that you can feel something coldish on your skin is good placebo tho

x2go is a bit smarter than pure x-forwardning and also allows you to resume a session at a different time (or on a different machine) similar to something like tmux. Much much better performance and does pretty well even on cellular. A bit

But then you run into the risk of incompatibility bugs between the different versions. I had tons of issues getting it to work with versions too far apart, which tainted my feel for that approach. There is an argument to be made for dumb fi

That doesn't make any sense. Native snapshots are fantastic, but are merely an effective way to do backups. One where you trade some complexity from the backup software to the filesystem. (only talking backups, snapshots of course have

We do, and they are pretty cool but incredible limited. For one, you have to limit yourself to vscode and/or other IDEs with this capability - which ought to be a dealbreaker right there. But then you still have issues around syncing p

Development inside a container is still pretty darn miserable though. Nice in theory but not worth it.

This is alone a big enough reason that there never has been any reason to be hyped about passkeys. The hype train on passkeys has been insane.

Graphene was insanely hyped close to two decades ago though. Every other month you'd hear stories of things that could be disrupted by it. That was my recollection, though could be biased and me misremembering. But it feels like a vali

A lot of telemetry can become personal data. Filenames etc. are the easy parts. Telemetry needs to be motivated for it to not be considered spyware. You need to really consider what you are logging and why , and then, is it worth the downs

Very little harm... If the telemetry is from your users I'd like you to value them more than that. Also consider the potential risks of handling personal data and leaks.
