It costs them so little to provide their free consumer service (iirc: they fall-back to providing transit, but it’s very rare and only occurs when UDP is completely blocked) that it benefits them to keep their focus on consumers because if everyone is using Tailscale, the business customers are inevitable.

Ask HN: Is it okay to apply for Jr Level jobs if you strike out at Sr/Mid-level?
I'm getting extremely frustrated with the hiring/recruiting process.

I've been using laravel since 2013. I know livewire, react, alpine.js, and vue.
I'm not perfect, and sometimes I'm a perfectionist or want to go the extra mile
and make sure there are tests written at least for mission-critical bits.

I've also played with Remix.run, Nuxt3, Next.js, go, every python framework,
Rails, hasura+vue/react frontends.

My problem is the majority of my work has been freelance, and non-verifiable.
I have people I've worked for who can vouch for me, but nobody in a FAANG company.
I live in rural Utah and work remotely.

I'm 42, and eventually, I'd like to maybe try DevOps or project (or product) management.
I'm just struggling to pay the bills because I'm not the best at finding new clients,
and I'd like something with benefits that's sustainable.

I also miss working with a team, so it'd be nice to do that again as I learned a lot more
working on a team running scrum, etc...

So should I continue looking for a mid+ level position or just eat my pride and go for
a Jr level position -- maybe with a different tech stack even so at least I broaden my skill-set?

People sometimes ask me to describe the differences between Nebula and Tailscale. One of the most important relates to performance and scale. Nebula can handle the amount of internal network traffic and scalability of nodes (100k+ nodes, constant churn) required on a large network like Slack's, but Tailscale cannot. Tailscale's performance is fine for many situations, but not suitable for infrastructure. It is just a fundamentally different set of goals.

Nebula was created and open sourced before Tailscale was offering their product, but their architecture is similar to older offerings in the market, and is something we purposely avoided when creating Nebula.

Fwiw, I even recommend Tailscale to friends who want to do things like connect to their Plex server or Synology or [other thing] at home remotely. It simplifies this kind of thing greatly and doesn't require you to set up any infrastructure you control directly, which can be a headache for folks who just want to reach a handful of computers/devices.
As an example: shortly after Russia invaded Ukraine, Namecheap cancelled all accounts of all of its customers who were located in Russia. This was done regardless of what content if any was hosted by the account, whether or not the person in question supported the war, or whether the person in question was actively fleeing Russia and may have been relying on technical infrastructure they had previously set up to help them do so.

Just because a service you sign up for is not contentful, does not mean that they won't choose to boot you off for some reason completely unrelated to anything you control or anything you chose to do.
Also, ideas are two for a quarter.

> This "we are doomed" attitude is unhelpful towards positive change.

What's unhelpful is the unceasing denial. It's not good for mental health and it creates increasingly hostile and aggressive people. Not being able to talk about the very likely fact that we are going to witness the collapse of everything we know and love in the coming decades is unhealthy.

> It forces us towards selfishness and away from empathy and mutual-support.

I've found the opposite to be true for me. Everyone I know who is "collapse aware" so to speak is much more empathetic towards others. It's the denial in my experience that makes people so hostile. They're scared and angry but aren't allowed to develop towards a state of acceptance. Constant cognitive dissonance leads slowly to derangement.

> If you're worried about climate change ...

If you don't really believe you can fix things, if you don't really believe that everything can be solved (which I an many other don't) doing these things is the textbook example of nihilism.

The acknowledgement that "we are doomed" does not have to lead to a permanent state of depression, that's only the initial phase (once you get past the anger and denial). There is acceptance, there can be healing and there can be asking questions about "how do I want to life in a world in collapse?". The more people that are able to openly admit this and talk about it the less nihilism (and it's dangerous consequences) we'll see.

I think everyone knows who the dominant country in NATO is. This organization alone gives the US vastly more influence in Europe than Russia wields.

> US dont go into outrage threatening local admins

You should read a bit about how ambassador Richard Grenell behaved himself in Germany. The day after he arrived, he demanded that all German companies doing business in Iran wind down their operations. And the thing is, everyone knew that that demand was backed up by real power, because the US can and does go after European companies that do business in Iran. Grenell seemed to think he was some sort of proconsul, rather than an ambassador to a friendly nation.

Russia's influence consists mainly of its gas and oil deliveries, and the fact that various European companies have invested in Russia. It has comparatively little soft power. Outside of Hungary, Serbia and a few other small European countries, the media, politics and public opinion are fairly strongly anti-Russian.

Just to give you a flavor of how much soft power the US has, the largest private news media empire in Germany, the Axel Springer group (they own the largest tabloid and one of the largest newspapers), was literally funded by the CIA during the Cold War, and still officially lists support for the United States as one of its guiding editorial principles. Meanwhile, Russia's attempts to build up pro-Russian media have gone nowhere. You can't even access RT in a lot of Europe: its YouTube channel is blocked, and DNS servers don't even return results when you query RT.
You can look at Oracle Cloud. They have a "free forever" plan that looks quite nice (4 ARM CPUs, 24 GB RAM and 200 GB storage).
I use Lit every day and I have no idea what you're talking about.

Any property can be a full JS object. When the property is changed, it is re-rendered in your component. I have never touched innerHtml and my Lit apps pass and render all kinds of stuff into html`` tagged templates.

It's really pure magic because you can freely mix regular old HTML and regular attributes with dynamic data and data binding. There's more than one way to write anything which gives you great flexibility. I adore tagged templates, and they work for CSS and SVG, too.
The ecosystem is flooded with over-engineered bespoke solutions, and is sorely lacking in standardized approaches and best practices. It's a core reason why software development cannot reasonably be called engineering, as engineering principles are either never applied or discarded on a whim.

It won't change until we can form a guild (professional association) and turn it into a bonafide profession. Right now, code that one developer creates may be unrecognizable by another developer, even though both are working in the same domain. It would be a disaster if one lawyer could not follow a brief written by another or a doctor could not decipher which techniques were used by another to perform a particular surgical procedure.

It is one of the most interesting rules in sports, and does make for some incredible stories on the (rare) occasion when it is invoked. I first heard of this when Scott Foster played for the Blackhawks and thought it was one of the coolest things I'd ever heard of in my life at the time. And I still think this is one of the coolest things ever. Talk about memories that will last a lifetime. Wow.
I am not very familiar with this tool, and the documentation doesn't mention this use case but it does look like you can pass specific schema(s) or exclude them:

https://github.com/djrobstep/migra/blob/master/migra/migra.p...

It looks like the schema do have to have the same name between the databases, which I think is sensible but again I could be wrong. This is a darker corner of the postgres tooling world that could definitely use some light, so good on the migra devs to trying this out. If you do get it working, consider sending them a PR with some documentation on your use case!
I spoke with a mother of three, who had some opinions on the matter.

She gave me the impression that most "mainstream" things about birthing are designed for the convenience of the medical professionals rather than the welfare of the child or the mother.

For example, the lying on the back with legs spread position is totally unnatural, according to her, not to mention induced labor.

She had her first child "by the book", and her third at home with a doula, with the second somewhere in between.

Everything from cutting the umbilical cord prematurely to slapping the baby to force them to breathe (because they're no longer getting oxygen from the prematurely cut umbilical cord) is violent and traumatic and conveyor-belt-like.

She told me that it has been reflected in her childrens' personalities, with her youngest being by far the most calm, empathetic, and non-violent.
The way I see it, history works in cycles. We're at the end of a cycle now, it's going to be painful until the new one starts.

Ask HN: Reddit's filters incorrectly subreddit banned me; how to restore?
I was experiencing strange bot-"Banned for spam" events over the last few days on a subreddit with small (18) but very particular membership and viewers in the 100-several hundred range, despite the posts only being submitted on the subreddit itself (the promotion to the subreddit was done mostly off Reddit itself).

Last night my subreddit was banned as a result of "Violating Reddit rules" due to the alleged spam and I also got shadow-banned.

I tried explaining the the situation to r/Reddit and they agreed I got caught up in the spam filter incorrectly and lifted the shadow-ban restriction, but so far I did not get a response about the subreddit itself that was banned as a result of the spam filters.

The content was "let's just say important" for the viewership, which I would consider members of an important community in the real world, and the amount of work that went into it ... let's just say A LOT of work went into it.

Does anybody know anything about or have any experience with restoring both a subreddit AND its contents?

Again, the amount of work that went into it, over a LONG period of time, is incomprehensible and duplicating it from scratch would not be possible.

Any help would be appreciated, please and thank you.

Removing the ability to use it in a non-saas (local vaults, vaults shared by other syncing solutions) capacity is what drove the final nail into the 1password coffin for me. I can't trust that they don't hold master keys to all the vaults on their saas offerings.

The swap from native to electron on macos was hugely disappointing but something I could have probably lived with if they hadn't gone full saas no alternative.

I find it much easier to do exercise in the cold than in the heat. In the cold it's just a matter of having the right gear and layers. In the heat, there's nothing you can do. It'll be extremely hot, you'll be sweating like crazy and get tired quicker (or at least I do).

Attitude Adjustment
This was definitely part of the motivation, but even more importantly (and it's possible that we missed it in the duckdb documentation when we explored doing exactly this) we needed the ability to add columns dynamically when we see a new label-name. This is sort of an analogy of wide-columns in Cassandra, but forcing it into the columnar layout to allow it to be searched and aggregated by efficiently. From our research all the open source column databases at best support a map type, through which we loose the columnar layout since the values of the map are all stored together giving us row-based database characteristics. (all databases except InfluxDB IOx, whose developers we talked to extensively and who highly inspired this design)
Not an etymological post, as I was first expecting, but a post on the use of rewrite tactics in Coq using something other than equality, based on Partial Equivalence Relations (PER) and their proper elements (those that are related to themselves—which would be everything for honest equivalence relations, but partial equivalence relations drop that requirement).
> I've found the opposite to be true for me. Everyone I know who is "collapse aware" so to speak is much more empathetic towards others.

Except for the extreme border fixation by the ascendant far right? Except for the militias and preppers? They use a different vocabulary but these groups are collapse-aware as well.

We don't usually call it this anymore but this is basically ecofascism. Environmental awareness does not inherently come with an outward facing altruism.

Yes but only a Raspberry Pi 4. The improvement compared to 3 is so big, that it's not worth getting a 3.

And it's nearly impossible to get any of them. I've been trying to buy another 4 with 8 GB for over a year now, but am not willing to go beyond 80 € for just the board.
I was interested in Authentik, but I was perusing the docs and was extremely put off by the way in which Authentik manages itself as well as additional “outposts”.

> The docker integration will automatically deploy and manage outpost containers using the Docker HTTP API.

> This integration has the advantage over manual deployments of automatic updates (whenever authentik is updated, it updates the outposts)

NO. I do not want software I use to update itself automatically in prod. And I especially do not want to give a docker socket to it so that it can automatically add new components.

if my companion says "I am cold" on a warm day in the shade, then it is a valid complaint, since they probably do feel cold. You express empathy for the readers with "valid complaint" and from an educational, empathy point of view, sure, agree. Are regex's used by more people, or less people, than in 1999? Do people read, write and use them in code? for editing HTML pages? of course it is trivially true. That guy was saying to software developers "don't use regex it is a problem not a solution" .. I was there!

Just say no. I know this isn't easy. I'm the tech lead at my company and I've continuously steered us away from stuff because I couldn't understand why we needed to do things differently and no one else could come up with a reasonable argument for why anything of the things that we had that worked needed changing. I have dabbled with all the things but not found a compelling reason to change anything. Sometimes people go off on a tangent and sometimes they discover something useful but I'm in no rush to get there. What we have is fine and we have stuff to do.

It's happening right this second. Right now the American West is suffering from incredible drought, right now there are water problems there. Right now heat waves in India are causing crop failures meaning then are considering to stop the export of wheat at the same time that a war for resources in Ukraine is cause them to reduce wheat exports.

I've been a "doomer" so to speak since 2016. I'm shocked at how many things I was concerned about have come to pass. If you were to describe the world of today to someone from 1996 they would be horrified and think you were full of nonsense.

But denial is a hell of a drug, so I'm guess you and many other will still not see it no matter what happens. There was a documentary on the sinking island of Tangiers. The mayor of the town (and many residents) remained rabid climate change deniers even as they witnessed their own home be consumed by the sea. Watching that made me realize that nothing will for people to realize what's happening when that realization comes at such a high mental cost.
Yes, probably the saddest thing I read this week. Self-promotion on twatter and HN is different than forming friendship. The goold old days of fora was way better to make friends from the internet IMO. Nowadays everything seems to be a link aggregator which fundamentally change how people interact with each other.

Also it may be more an academic thing, but cold emailing is a good way to make contact. Not necessarily friends thought it can happen but at least it can make projects advance, with very little (public) noise.
