Show HN: Hyperlocal DNSSEC Validating Unbound Docker Image
Hello there!

I've built a secure and trustworthy NLnetLabs Unbound Docker image as the most images didn't meet my standards on a zero trust policy. It supports DNSSEC, is sealed with chroot, runs with a non-root user and exposes only unprivileged ports. It is intended to provide a hyperlocal setup holding a local copy of the DNS root zone using zone transfers though but it will also run perfectly with your own unbound.conf if you'd rather like to use an upstream server which provides DoT or DoH features. So if your ISP's DNS servers having issues, you won't be affected at all. This setup will also add a plus on circumventing censorship using blocked DNS entries and adds a little more privacy but your ISP will still be able to see what you did there anyway.

The image is built entirely online using workflows with GitHub Action and not locally on my systems at home. All downloads, even the downloads of the root files, are verified with PGP keys and the respective PGP armored signature files where available to provide maximum trust.

It's a quite tiny Alpine Linux multiarch image and the architectures are on par with the architectures Pi-hole uses. In fact, it is a perfect complement for Pi-hole as an upstream server if you are already running Pi-hole for ad blocking and tracking prevention. As I wrote on my GitHub page, it was created with Pi-hole in mind. And with lots of love.

I hope you enjoy the image and forgive me my shameless promotion^^ of my open source project. :)

Just come and visit my GitHub repository https://github.com/madnuttah/unbound-docker if you'd like to learn more about this project. If you'd like to contribute, you're very welcome.

Cheers and wishing all the best,

>These were due to lack of regulation.

Both of these are explicit examples of regulatory capture.

The FAA is heavily dependent on aircraft manufacturers to self certify. EU members met in Brussels to discuss the exact metrics VW was spoofing, but failed to implement a measurement strategy that would have easily detected this manipulation due to pressure from companies regarding the expense and time of tests.

>They certainly wouldn't have been avoided by laissez-faire capitalism.

You cannot substantiate this assertion. If the state did not have easily captured, monopolistic, and absolute authority over the certification and other confidence-instilling industries, then it's highly likely trustworthy, neutral third parties would exist and compete to assess and verify the safety and other metrics of various industry. In the restaurant industry, ServSafe and its competitors are a great example. There's also tons of nongovernmental safety and quality certifications in plenty of other fields with the potential for catastrophic failure and loss of human life.

>Please elaborate on these.

I've already cited Smith's books. Derivative and subsequent works regarding the rise and proliferation of the economic philosophy of capitalism are consistent in their message.

>Without "bad human" problems, any economic system ever tested in history would work fine, including the ones you don't like.

No they wouldn't, but that's completely unrelated to what's being discussed. The entire point I'm making is that capitalism's economic and moral foundations minimize the impact and scale of individual bad actors, to a degree unseen by any other system, while simultaneously enabling the common man to participate in innovation. It's an an objective fact consistently observable across time and space.

>The only reason modern "capitalist states" work is because they have a functioning state enforcing the playing field so game is fair.

That's a bold and completely unsubstantiated assertion.

Please actually read some of the foundational literature. Pretty much everything you've said is explicitly addressed.
Yeah, strange to name it identical to the somewhat obscure https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinc_(protocol) when they had a free choice of any first letter. I'd have gone with zinc ( short for Zinc Is Not Catan), which is at least a word.
I'm on the fence on whether luring people like this out with "tell me more(about your incredibly naive and bigoted takes)" is worth it. On one hand they are clearly bursting at the seams with garbage and cannot hold back at the opportunity to implicate themselves. Never stop an opponent from making an error. On the other hand, it has the potential for readers to mistake their drivel for substantive discourse.
I don't understand why car infotainment system is a thing honestly.

If you really need a touchscreen that badly, just buy an ipad and tape it to the dash, would probably offer way more feature and flexibility.

My truck had dials and audio jacks, what else do you really need? The car navigation systems I've seen are universally worse than google map.

Just out of curiosity: are there companies actually writing mission-critical code in a Haskell? My impression is that those normally tend to get written in C++ and the like.
Bingo. IME Producthunt is lazy marketing for indie founders. Their main user base is other founders, wannabe founders and super tech literate power users who are itching to use “the next new beta thing”, who’ll be a tiny percentage of any userbase.

Granted there are cases where that market IS aligned with your product, eg if you built a low cost site-builder or low cost social media publishing platform
Is there a Twitter client out there that uses lists, but also lets me dismiss red tweets? I'd like to be able to more easily remove stuff I've already seen, and ideally save tweets for future reference.

I used to use outwit (Twitter being fed into Outlook) for this.
I'm just a lowly adjunct, but I sense that one barrier to open textbook adoption is the accreditation process. I don't know exactly the connection, but I get the feeling that the department can check some box if they say that all their lower division calculus courses are taught with Pearson's book, for instance. Sort of a "no one ever got fired for choosing IBM" type situation.

Anyone have any insight to this? I only have a sample size of two... which leads me to believe not all departments worry about this so much.

Edit: see these MAA guidelines: https://www.maa.org/programs-and-communities/professional-de...

One suggestion is "there should be established procedures for periodic review of the curriculum... should include careful scrutiny of course syllabi, prerequisites, and textbooks."

As much as I hate to say it, there are legitimate reasons for carefully controlling the curricula in lower division courses. A big one is: transfer credit. People get pissed when it's difficult to transfer their cheaper CC credits to a larger university.

The easiest way to solve these problems is by dictating curricula. But, unfortunately, the Pearson's of the world feast on the resulting homogenized market.

This is similar to my problem with Common Core. Everything in Common Core is perfectly reasonable. But now we have one giant textbook market where Pearson dominates with their products which now bear a "Common Core approved" label on the cover.
That's a great point. I've changed the linked URL above to https://www.pelm.com/use-cases. Thanks!
It is definitely super annoying that companies are allowed to spy on us and do all kinds of crazy things with our data, all using computers and automation and "bots" and such, but individuals are increasingly not allowed to use automation to help us out online. Seems rather one-sided. On the other hand, I get that abuse is a huge problem. I do wish at least bots operating at roughly human request rates & daily total requests were considered OK and universally allowed without risk of blocks or other difficulties leading to increased maintenance costs (so, making them less valuable).
Depends on what you're doing, but you can numerically simulate solutions to PDEs. To me that makes them useful even if we struggle to conjure up closed form solutions.

Modern Disney filmmaking (Pixar, WDAS) is much closer to the Miyazaki approach you describe than you'd think. It's very, very iterative; each film goes through 5-6 screenings, during which the story structure can and does change dramatically. People are very definitely working on the final product while the story is still being worked out. One pretty common pattern: with 8-9 months left to go until release, the entire third act has to be scrapped and reworked, and often big chunks of the first and second act reworked to match. Voice actors for the main characters are involved throughout, and often come in many times to record new pages of freshly written dialog.

If all this seems chaotic, it is. It leads to untold stress as the release date looms closer and closer and the ending still isn't figured out, which compresses the schedule for each department to deliver a finished product. Very very rarely, the release date is allowed to slip (see "The Good Dinosaur" for example) but that's really the nuclear option, as it involves shuffling the release schedule and incurs a ton of cost. This is a big part of why these movies cost so much: compressing the schedule means hiring tons of people and paying them tons of overtime.

Source: I worked the better part of a decade at WDAS.
Of course that 6% only counts land usage by humans. How many (additional) non-human habitats would you have to decimate to cover 12% of the land with (ugly) solar panels?

Maybe thats acceptable in some deserts, but pretty terrible in other places. 1 step forward, 1 step back.

Plus that figure is for our current energy usage, which is only going to increase over time.
Nah, it'd definitely be running as a systemd service.

My point is the comparison is meaningless.

If they get this to work, they will just build something with 100x or 1000x the output.

The number isn’t really important here, some indication of how the development of the technology is coming along is what we care about. Compare this energy to the last best output.

If this works and we productionize it, we will suddenly go from 1/4 Tesla battery to 10,000 Tesla batteries.

But nuclear power is also not predictable, as plants regularly experience unexpected downtime. No power source is fully predictable, which is why you need controllable power sources to make up the difference.

I would say solar’s problem is controllability. You can only turn it up to the limit of the amount of sun received, which is none at night, and sometimes very little in the day.

It remains to be seen how controllable fusion power will be. Will it be for base load only, or will it also be useful to flexibly dial up and down for variable load? Much of current nuclear power is base load only. Clean base load power is still super useful, but it is not a complete solution.
I am the author, and I am 100% with you. This data is from scrapped job offers, as said in the article, not from devs posting their current salary.
Also some offers have lack of transparency as you said, and some also have malformed salary ranges (which I try to clean). So yeah, this is the exact result of those scraped job offers, but take it with a grain of salt.
Nothing new and people on here won't care. A plant-based lifestyle is better for you and the planet. But people love their meat...

Bungie, another tech company, has been making this exact request of its community for years now, and their community has for years now found every excuse under the sun to ignore it. Bungie asks “tell us what’s broken, tell us what feels wrong”, and their community responds instead “recurring feature request X, cynical dismissal of intentions”, and then complains that bugs aren’t getting fixed in Bungie’s products. This self-fulfilling prophecy of refusal, complaint, and outrage repeats on an annual cycle, and yet these users continue to ignore pleas for useful feedback.

As of when I posted this comment, most of HN’s discussion of this post is a stellar example of this Internet forum social behavior. Safari asks “tell us what’s buggy and broken, not about recurring feature requests”, and this community is responding with “recurring feature request X, cynical dismissal of intentions”. There are three or four actual real bug reports in this discussion, but they’re drowned out by the non-curious ‘feature’ and ‘cynical’ repetition.

I’m kind of disappointed that they got a hundred plus viable bug reports on Twitter, but only a couple from HN. Given how much so many of us sneer at Twitter, it’s upsetting to see Twitter dramatically outshine us technically. We’re Hacker News, this ought to be a piece of cake.

For example: I wish that Elon Musk wasn’t prideful and troll-y online (these are feature requests that his personality team has refused us), but if he asked me to name a bug in Tesla’s cars that he isn’t aware of, I’d point out that Tesla cars allow you to drive at unsafe speeds when the fog lights are turned on, which is wasting untold megawatts of Supercharger time per year because drivers either don’t know that fog lights aren’t effective above a certain speed and because there’s no chime or automatic-off setting to prevent energy waste. Yes, Elon’s a jerk, and yes, I have feature requests and cynicism about that — but I’d leap for the opportunity to even have a chance at posting one paragraph that cuts all Teslas’ watts per mile by any amount at all. I wish others here found that as rewarding as I do.

Naive question: how does double-entry accounting help computer accouting systems?
Author here, happy to discuss! I hope it wasn't too confusing or seem like I'm trying to say one is necessarily better. Rather, I just wanted to raise some questions and look at porting/translation from a more abstract, higher-level view.
Planes were built in the first place to have plenty of cargo space outside of the passenger cabin and only a little bit cargo space directly inside the cabin so that the passenger cabin could focus on other amenities. Checked baggage wasn't just a convenience, it was a necessary engineering trade-off to keep cabin space comfortable. It's no surprise that the comfort of the cabin space has directly decreased as checked baggage fees contributed to a massive tragedy of the commons in the passengers cabin space.

The "premium", more finite resource space is passenger cabin space. If the fees were truly about market economics (rather than just fake profits the airlines knew they could get away with) you'd expect that the actually more limited space would be the one with fees and that they'd be charging carry-on fees, not checked baggage fees. (I think that would be amazing how much it would streamline TSA security checks, boarding, and deplaning if they charged fees per carry-on.)
You won't like this answer, but this may well be "working as intended".

If Quickbooks isn't licensed to offer financial services in Ghana, they may be legally forbidden from paying you, and an LLC (with an address you are not at) may not be enough for them to consider the payee a United States entity.

> Isabella's lament was the best part of the movie[...], but it's literally just a "meaningless stepping stone to discover Bruno" within the movie.

Isabella's song ("What Else Can I Do") is pretty much the opposite of a lament and takes place after Mirabel has found Bruno. I don't know what "lament" you could be talking about, maybe "Waiting On a Miracle" which is Mirabel's classic Disney "I Want" song, in the same vein as "Part of Your World" or "Let It Go".

My kids have basically listened to the soundtrack on repeat for two months now and I assure you the songs are anything but "forgettable".

The short answer is Trump's order had actual legal grounds to stick as far as Huawei goes.

Regarding Huawei , Trump basically told the Commerce Department to take action, Huawei was already (or was in the process of being) blacklisted by the commerce department, the commerce department does have the legal right to do that given the nature of Huawei's products and sensitivity of communications equipment.

The commerce department doesn't currently (although I believe lawmakers are looking into it) have the authority to simply blanket ban an app like tiktok on a whim / order. They simply can't do that for any old reason the POTUS says.

As I noted in another comment, in the US it does matter HOW you do things, the courts are independent (compared to say China) regardless how "right" someone might be they need to follow the law.

Does anyone use Safari exclusively for all their browsing? I've heard great things about DuckDuckGo's browser, Firefox Focus, (Vanilla) Firefox, Brave, Opera, etc. I try to minimize the apps I have installed, but when it comes to browsers, I like to have a fair amount of them installed, not because I especially like certain browsers, just that it minimizes the attack surface, and compartments browsing sessions, which is essential these days. I still leave a footprint, but having your browsing insulated from other browsing sessions is a good practice. Anyone else do this? Multiple browsers === Privacy win?

I absolutely agree. I've had some conversations with my local paper, the Santa Fe New Mexican about this, since their subscription cost seems sort of absurd for the value. They point out (correctly, IMO) that the really small upper bound on their potential subscriber base really forces their hand a lot, a problem that the NYT does not face and likely never will (given its national and international reach).
