This kinda surprises me, what is so "dramatic" about cloudfared specifically? This seems just like another reverse tunnel tool, and there are plenty of them.

I am not working with malware specifically, but in the past I've used ssh tunnels, random one-off websocket thingy we wrote, wireguard tunnel, frp proxy, and even AWS SSM agent to get access to machines with all incoming connections blocked. They are pretty simple to setup and generally cannot be blocked with whitelist block already.

(and I bet that for malware, they are worse than cloudfared. Based on CF's reputation, they take security reports seriously, so I would not be surprised if they take down malicious tunnels fast. While random VM on low-cost hosters will probably takes days to respond.)

>don't go to Y they don't like Americans

As an American, this has been my experience with French people. Everyone tells me how rude they are, and how they dislike Americans. Meanwhile, I've met a ton of French people and they have all been absolutely wonderful, polite, and totally friendly.

Actually, I brought this up the first time I met two Frenchmen when I was 19 in NYC. They were tourists and I was surprised and mentioned that I was under the impression that French people disliked Americans, and they said "No, we love them! Just maybe in Paris, you will not like it, but the rest of France is much better!"

Idk what to take from that, but the point is, French people are great ime.

You said it would make sense for 3 days in office. This seems to be a common hybrid schedule. Some companies assigned shared permanent desks to people with complementary 2 day schedules. This is better than hot desks. And it is possible both of you are right.

I'm not sure about FE, but the "we're spinning right now at 1000mph" disintegrates under any reasonable interrogation.

For example, consider you're looking at a disk shaped cloud 10 miles above that is 20 miles long from the center. If you're on Earth spinning below it at 1000mph you would be looking back at the cloud in less than 2 minutes.

So how do clouds linger above us on a fast spinning earth?

May not be a convincing question for some, but it's made me think.

I have nothing to say about this particular drug, but it's without a doubt that the FDA carries water for the pharma industry.

My own personal anecdote is that I've been taking NMN as a dirt-cheap supplement for years, until recently, when the FDA decided that one of their pay-pigs is going to turn it into a prescription drug, and likely charge much, much more for it:

I remember in the early-mid aughts I evaluated Postgres vs MySQL. At the time the conventional wisdom seemed to be that Postgres was focusing more on robustness and MySQL more on functionality. And a lot of people seemed to prefer MySQL because of this.

When I looped back around several years later Postgres had started to overcome MySQL. Conventional wisdom then was it was roughly at feature parity with MySQL but more robust.

So it would seem that working on having a robust inner core first paid off, even if it cost some early reputation.
"Violators – both businesses and consumers — could face a jail term of up to four years or a fine of $4 million Kenyan shillings – about $28,000."

Was it that Postgres became cool or that MySQL became unreliable post-Oracle and developers were looking for an alternative?
I agree! Unfortunately, we pivoted to self-hosting right around the time we were running out of money, and around the time I had a child and thus, needed money. I'm really glad we pivoted to something we love and our users love, but it hardly pays the bills.

I've spoken with several people who are starting similar companies and who've reached out to me (happy to do that!) - my advice is similar to yours: keep it simple, keep it focused. KubeSail is a developer tool turned home-hosting tool, but if I could rebuild it, I'd make it incredibly simple to get Jellyfin and a torrent/VPN client installed and that's about it, and then execute insanely hard on making that as streamlined and foolproof as humanly possible.

I wanted to chime in as a calculator dev dude. Qalculate is really nice if you want the kitchen sink, which I do on the desktop. I also, depending on the task use speedcruch which others have mentioned.

Using https://github.com/ArashPartow/exprtk I have one calculator with a repl at 512kb, including a QML wrapper. I have a combined rpn calculator using sympy (based on the work of others) with exprtk as a 'programmer's calculator' on the side (https://github.com/poetaster/fibonacci). And several QML apps for symbolic CAS using sympy.

I have way too many calculators. They are so much fun to build. Now I ask myself, port the Qalculate methods to macros for exprtk or check out using libqalculate? I'm not sure. exprtk is so light? And adding macros discrete.

Had a related thing, back when landlines were expensive. A roommate went off on Peace Corps to Sierra Leone for a year, and I inherited her landline.

A telemarketer called asking for her, and I said "oh, she'll be in Africa for a year." The marketer had a minor meltdown. Evidently, he had been close to the end of his rope already, and this (honest) answer pushed him that much closer. "Don't mock me. Just hang up or say she's not taking calls," he begged me.

This is when I finally realized I didn't need to be honest with telemarketers. Subsequently, whenever I'd get a call asking for her, I'd try to come up with more and more exotic reasons she couldn't answer the phone. Since her name was not pronounced the way the spelling suggested it might be, it was easy to know whether the caller knew her or not, and I could respond accordingly.

Discord seems rather good at picking data centers for chat channels optimized for good voice quality, but not always as good at picking data centers for video quality. There's some latency graphs you can discover "hidden" in Discord's desktop interface. (It's a hover over the right part of the call "bar".) You can use that information to manually override the data center for the channel. I've had some good experiences with switching data center to closer to the people experiencing the worst video quality. (Of course, you need to be a channel admin to manually change the data center. It will also kick everyone else and force a rejoin to connect to the new data center, so it is something to add to a tech rehearsal ahead of time if relying on the channel for important meetings.)

> but in practice this is a big loser in AWS where a staggering number of resources are created by one API call and then tagged as a followup API call

We have a bot at work that sends you (or a DL with a bunch of people) a nastygram if you forget to tag your resources, but it doesn't know this. So if CloudFormation isn't done, you'll get the email and then have to respond to everyone with a screenshot showing that you didn't in fact goof it up. I wonder if you can make it so EventBridge (or however it's implemented, I'm not sure) delay an event for 30 seconds so they don't actually look until CF is done tagging.
Genuine q. The main thing stopping me from self hosting is security. Having a box in the cloud get hacked as long as data is properly encrypted and secured - not good but also can easily destroy and spin up anew.

But having your home server hacked and then presumably your entire home network and everything in it - seems way too fraught to even attempt it.

Thoughts on that? Am I just too unfamiliar with network security and this actually solved now — and there is already a well-defined trusted approach to this?

2. provide a paper trail that would directly implicate people in the event of fraud, removing plausible deniability for the folks involved.

That's exactly it. The "extension monetization" field is a product area fundamentally designed to scam its users. Clearly they're not going to shy away from scamming their suppliers. They just need to fool the authors into giving them control before taking payment, then they move on to the next mark.
The point is composition has no influence on momentum. Nobody doubts causing two bullets, already mid-flight, to collide by shooting other bullets at them is nontrivial.

Ubuntu is now the "Windows" of the Linux world. It's pretty successful if you ask me.
I don't disagree that it's extremely unlikely that certain governments will adopt it, at least not without lots of other governments to point to as success cases at least.

I'm just not sure how it's feasibly funded in any other way. That's the main problem as I see it. Any non-governmental body can't actually fund it to any degree other than as an experiment for a subset of people (which has happened, from HN no less[1], but I don't recall the outcome).

Maybe, possibly, a religious organization such as one of the various Morman churches that strongly encourage tithing could do so, but it would probably be cast more as charity than UBI. That's also ignoring all the other problematic aspects of something like that.

I don't disagree, but on the other hand: Lloyd's used to be a London pub where merchants would hang out all day, carrying out their business as they ate. Business deals at the highest level are still routinely done over breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

I think the problem, as usual, is the power imbalance: they are eating and you are not, in addition to the fact that they have the money and you don't - so it becomes a bit too humiliating.

But Google My Business (GMB) is for end users? GMB specifically markets it directly to business owners, mom and pop types. They will look _very_ critically if you're a third party as I've experienced.

And it's not just GMB. There are other products that Google just refuses to support in any meaningful way yet are definitely end user. Less consumer, but still end user. One example, Google Analytics. There's GA360 with 24/7 support, but it's $150k/yr. GA360 is also the only way to download historical GA data after a year or so (last time I checked?). Another example, Google Data Studio. which is now... Looker? I guess? What a clusterfuck that was. It and Firebase were so glitchy and lost so much of our analytics. Once I finally got it into BigQuery and then into DataStudio, which I spent way more time on that it should've they wanted to charge us up the ass to continue doing it. So I was told to turn it off.

I'm certainly not defending Nintendo, but Gary Bowser is not as innocent as he was made out to be by viral media.

The guy stole FOSS code by making a closed source fork to sell for a profit, tweaked it to be malicious (bricking devices that ran homebrew software that he personally did not like, notably the FOSS competitor to his product), and explicitly advertised his stolen product as being used for software piracy (or unsanctioned copying if you're a stickler for that). Boneheaded actions like that hurt the entire homebrew scene by branding people who just want to run their own code on their own devices as criminals. Gary was in the wrong both legally and morally. It's people like him that incite action against hackers as a whole.

No, your traditions are a mistake. (How do you like it?)
In short: author of Moq adds the dependency SponsorLink, which is an obfuscated closed source library that collects and uploads data from the developer's machine when the developer builds a project that includes a dependency on Moq. The collected data happens to be the hash of the globally configured git email address of the user at this point in time.

I simply cannot understand why someone, especially the author, would think this is a good idea. How can you not predict this will create a backlash and push users away?

Thanks for the transparent response. Even if some or all answers are used to either fully customize the program for the user, or to place the user in a particular track, it's still a bad onboarding experience.

The customer wants to see what your product is, what it does, how it does it specifically and succinctly, and how much it costs, front and center.

These "onboarding surveys" is a recently hyped dark pattern that uses a huge number of questions along with fake spinners, and random interstitials to trick the user into entering an email at the end, due to the cost sunk into the onboarding experience.

In marketing/sales speak, you're actually generating yourself a huge number of dud leads this way, making your true conversion numbers actually worse than what they could have been if you only signed up "serious" customers.

If you insist on using an onboarding survey, place it after the signup email, and restrict only to questions, answers to which you actually use to generate the program for the user.
