Microsoft SQL actually is pretty good and really performant (with my limited production use).

I would argue it’s more performant than vanilla MySQL and it supports multiple write masters using peer to peer transactional replication an enterprise license feature (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/re...)

You're overestimating AWS/cloud costs by a decent amount.

t3a.medium is under $30/month and that price only goes down when you reserve for the year. Save even more if you can run your service on ARM/Gravitron.

A VPS service like Linode will have even better pricing than AWS.

Driving over to a data center isn't free (time and cost), either. Those used Xeon blades are cheap for good reason – the companies that originally owned them consider them EOL. There's "no such thing" as dealing with hardware failure (except for occasional stop/starts) in the cloud.

Brilliant. I fully support this spirit. We need to self host more.

Here is another important one that self hosting would protect you from: censorship and ideological regulations imposed by a platform.

Congrats! If you bought PUTS at market open today (or yesterday) you could have made 500% today.

I'm excited about this and in the future will be checking stock price first thing when I see these smaller publicly listed tech companies getting hit with big hacks.

For MSFT (and companies of that size) this type of news doesn't move the stock that much but with current volatility there will be plenty of great plays in the future for smaller companies.
Motorcycles definitely are very convenient. Power to weight ratio is great, easier to maneuver in a city, has better parking options, gets great gas mileage (my speedy v-strom gets about 53mpg), and other nice conveniences.

It has one major flaw though. You're pretty much guaranteed to get injured in an accident and the chance of dying is much higher than in a car. Cyclics see some of these issues as well when they ride on the street but generally they're going slower and able to react to a situation a little faster than a motorcycle rider.

It probably can prevent your electronics from getting destroyed by making your car a sort of Faraday cage in the event of a nuclear EMP.
These bytes are an ASCII zero, then two carriage-return/linefeed pairs and then the byte with value 23, so that 0\r\n\r\n might just be HTTP saying we're done sending you this chunked HTTP response.

I think that 23 byte is the TLS content type, meaning "This is the actual application data you were transporting over TLS". In TLS 1.3 the original content type byte (from previous TLS versions) just always says 23 regardless so that middle boxes leave us alone, "Huh I guess everything is encrypted application data, I'm just a dumb middlebox so this isn't suspicious"

This new, inner content type, safely encrypted and thus invisible to the middleboxes, is at the end of the data because it allows a clever trick with zero padding. See, content type zero isn't a thing. So if we get some data and the last byte is zero, that's not the content type it must be padding, remove it, try again. Still zero? Still padding, remove that and so on. Because the zeroes were encrypted, an adversary can't tell they're padding, but because they're zero the real recipient can discard them safely, yet if we don't need padding we aren't wasting space for a "no padding" indicator, we just don't add any of those zeroes.

However, if 23 here is a content type, this means our intrepid TLS implementer got things a little wrong and all their HTTP data has stray 0x17 bytes at the end of each record received. I don't see code to handle that, but I may have missed it. It seems plausible that in terminal output you wouldn't notice?
I see, thanks. So why would Spotify agree to this if they were able to handle premium subscriptions outside of Google? They expect they will make more money this way even after having to give a cut to Google?
>oppression is unavoidable

Otherwise very nicely put, but surely there is a useful distinction between "not getting what you want" and "oppression"! I think we can all agree that even losing the vote on every issue is far preferable to losing the ability to vote on any issue. But that's not true if, by losing a vote, or a court case, or an administrative decision, you consider yourself 'oppressed'. You lost, true. Maybe unfairly. But that's necessary but not sufficient to prove oppression! Like, if I could wave a magic wand and grant all American voters the (apparent) super-power of gracefully losing, I would.

If every loss is oppression, then winning becomes a moral imperative, possibly requiring escalation to violence. No-one wants to live in that world, so we need to give people a way to take their licks at the polls and then work together to solve the world's problems. And you know what, if you want to go to war over abortion, have at it, but do you really want to die on that hill? Aren't there issues that are more urgent, and more clearly dire than abortion? Or gay people? Or racist people? Aren't we ALL kind of in the same boat with respect to climate change, nuclear armaggedon, income inequality and the backsliding of democracies into autocracies? And aren't all of these at least 5 orders-of-magnitude more important than whether or not a trans woman can compete in NCAA sport?

(Why don't we hear our senators debating the important issues of the day? Why aren't they erudite men, well versed in many fields of endeavor, hosting daily podcasts of debates, singly and in groups? Is this not their job? And isn't it our job to second-guess all of them mercilessly??)

My personal site is a static page on github pages, behind cloudflare. It almost never goes down. This page appears to be down, probably because of the HN traffic.

I don't buy counter arguments to “I don’t care, I have nothing to hide”.
This is completely reasonable if you mean it as "It's extremely unlikely that github or cloudflare will ever choose to censor any content I care to share. Therefore I'm okay with taking that risk in exchange for the free, easy, scalable web hosting"

When you are literally fighting an invasion of tens of thousands of coordinated mass murderers, accurately contextualizing them according to a nuanced multiplicity of dimensions is counterproductive. The task on the ground is to toss as many of them as possible into a meat grinder. Dehumanizing them helps with that, even though it will likely dehumanize the defender as well. During war empathy with the attacker is critical to hunting them, but sympathy is a handicap.
Not in particular, there is triple ranking system in place plus some heuristics and it decided to rank you #1. Nice to be there for a change, huh? :)

As a layperson, no I don't. You will be surprised how many of us couldn't easily follow and understands guides for self-hosting. It took me a while to set it up since the documentation expects me to know everything. Which that is fair because self hosting are technical and requires some knowledge to set it up properly. The challenge is that where I can learn this knowledge in condensed manner? There probably are something out there but they are not centralized enough to help laypeople to run it. Let alone trying to learn how to keep it secured.

This really tells me you don't know much about the history of bicycles, nor did you actually read the article.

The UCI has had a potent effect on the bike market: people buy "serious rider" bikes based on what they see the "professionals" riding. And bulk manufacturers figure people want lower-end bikes that look like the "serious rider" bikes -- and they're right, that's what customers want. What customers don't realize is that the professionals are riding rather poor machines because a corrupt swiss organization is largely forcing them too.

Putting recumbents aside, let's just go back to small wheels. There is no valid reason for the UCI to ban them: they simply banned them because Moultons started winning. Regardless of your thoughts on the disadvantages of small wheels (and small wheels hold practically every single upright land speed record), none of those disadvantages are the reasons you don't see small-wheeled bikes in races. You don't see them because the UCI won't allow them. And the UCI won't allow them because they would smash all the race records. Thus people think small wheels are for folders and kid's bikes, rather than what they actually are, which is for winning races.

That's the thing, until this Open Banking stuff, I simply shared my bank account statements where I filtered out whatever I didn't want them to know - and I was sure that only few people in a local bank branch will see it, and the papers were disposed later.

Now I'm avoiding all this stuff like the plague. I'll never hand out access to my bank account through API to anyone. No inter-banking features or cool fintech apps for me, but oh well. My bank has good enough offer and the app is nice too.
Not sure why you’re getting downvoted but you’re right: people won’t just go away and die quietly. Maintaining a 24x7 guard over your supplies must be part of your prepper plans. Even then you’d better have the constitution to kill anyone trying to get your stuff. It’s not a pleasant thought and almost nobody is prepared to endure such a nightmare.
It doesn't really behave like interest though: the amount paid doesn't depend on compounding or your repayment schedule.
DO you think that there is actually a significant market for a secure open-source microcontroller? It seems like the BigCos have chosen to do things like Titan (open source but not really), Cerberus (also open source but not really), and T2 (extremely closed source). Traditional microcontroller companies don't seem to be interested. The whole root-of-trust industry is also moving towards extremely-closed-source microcontrollers inside your big SoCs.

In the interest of disclosure, I'm actually in a position to start a secure open-source MCU project/company, but it looks like a terrible dead end.

Sort of treating a funny comment seriously here, but I imagine that it's exactly like it is for EEs, which are also using lots of pieces of test equipment (sometimes the exact same, even).

It's not so much that messy labs are desirable or even okay for everyone, it's just that often it's pretty much impossible to keep your test bench "clean" and organized with so many devices, probes, and their cables, interconnected with each other. Or that even in the cases where you could achieve it, iterative changes to your setup mess that up immediately.

Personally I often like it, it feels like actual work getting done. %)
Git isn't quite a blockchain, since it's a DAG and doesn't have a distributed consensus algorithm built in, while a "true" blockchain would be a Merkle tree with a built-in consensus algorithm. But it's very close, and by skipping the "coin" part of a cryptocurrency it manages to be far more useful.

Both the Apple App Store and (I believe) the Google Play Store have requirements that any digital goods purchased through an app that's distributed through the App/Play store use the payment system provided by Apple/Google, which takes a 30% cut in most cases.

This is a big deal because both Apple and Google have been fighting to keep that 30% cut for years, despite the fact that neither company is really providing much value as a payments provider; they're just extracting rent from their monopoly position as the distributor for apps in iPhone/Android land.

YMMV I think - I use macOS, Windows and Linux and find macOS to be the most responsive on comparable hardware. Nothing wrong with the others, but they just feel clunky and inconsistent. On the other hand whenever I start Apple Music on macOS (but not iOS) it immediately beachballs, so nothing is perfect. Also macOS doesn't work as well as it used to with magnetic hard drives - I think Linux and Windows may be better.

As you observed, you can't expect that great results on the internet (or on benchmarks) will automatically translate to great results in your own environment unless you're running the same workload. At the end of the day, I think the only meaningful benchmark is using the machine for your own work (or other use case!)

We'd love for Digital Ocean to have an excellent customer service response. Rebuilding our hosting infrastructure on a new provider may take a few days. Tomorrow, we'll have our Lead Developer start moving onto a new hosting platform while our full-time team of nine (9) developers enjoys a miny unplanned paid vacation.

We signed up for the digital backup service that Digital Ocean offers, but it does no good if you can't access those backups. Luckily, we have a manual backup from a week ago. Unfortunately, we'll need to manually figure out what is missing, which will require directly calling customers via the Stripe receipts. Dear customers, what did you sign up for again? We're sorry, digitalocean.com has... and we need to match your payments receipts and manually create new records for profiles, credits, and reservations (only a few hundred phone calls).

Moreover, payments, bookings, and reservations have completely been halted due to the downtime imposed by Digital Ocean. Existing and potential customers are unable to process transactions. Maybe new customers will wait, or perhaps they'll Google another provider that can make a reservation now (who likes waiting).
