Reasons stated taken, now reasons to have a personal domain:

- not being bound to a specific third party :: even if you do not host your mails with your domain you can transfer it to another vendor, without changing addresses, aliases etc so transparently for your correspondent;

- mails and website, a single domain :: easy to reach you since typically mails are meant to communicate not to be secret tools for a selected cohort of friends;

- since the domain is like a postal address, something a Citizen should have to be, well a Netizen need it as well, and it's the basic brick to form own digital life in a connected society, domain, mail, personal website, perhaps homeserver are the tools of the trade like a home, a car, dresses and so on are for the physical world.

When I'll be dead those who eventually snoop my mails (that are certainly already snooped by gazzilion of third party at least in automatic ways for generic data mining, antivirus scan and so on) I'm pretty sure I'll not care... If I'll have heirs they'll be already instructed on what to do as for anything else.
Okay that makes sense. So why would you bother disabling this thing?

I'd imagine if someone already has local access to the server, it's already too late.
I would have to caution against 41-50% strength of actual acetic acid which is not very mild.

Perhaps you mean 41-50% common white vinegar.

The table vinegar itself is watered down acetic acid. Diluting that to about half-strength might still cause some skin sensitivity if it gets on the foot, but 40+% acetic acid is almost 10 times the strength of 50% vinegar and quite agressive & irritating.
Well... nothing? These kinds of news pop up from time to time, but that's the end of it. It's ridiculously far away, and there is little we can do, at least within any foreseeable time frame.

Code written in Rust for LLM would likely be easier to review than C code due to its strong type system and the inclusion of the borrow checker. However, I anticipate there might be more 'unsafe' code, especially at the language boundaries, compared to typical Rust application code. Thus, the benefits might be somewhat diminished.

Turmeric could be as effective as medicine for indigestion, says study
I’m just a layman when it comes to these kind of things. But here’s my take anyway: AFAICT, the issue isn’t so much about rewriting the code. However, if we would use automation for that, we would probably need proofs that the new code is better than the old one. And creating suchs proofs seems incredibly hard as soon as we walk out of “hello world” territory. People has spent years on trying to make suchs systems, but it’s still not widely used. So until then, we need people who read and analyze the code, and also have wast knowledge of the kernel’s inner workings, and today that seems to be the bottleneck. Those people doesn’t really grow on trees.
Yeah, that's true for companies that have several employees with customer contact. But many individual companies/self-employed workers don't have that.
Ask HN: How have you hacked your health?
No medical advice, speak to a qualified specialist

One of my favourite things about the discussions on this site is the amazing and insightful nuggets shared deep in the comment threads.

Notably a conversation with HNers treating/eradicating persistent reflux with cheap HCL/acid supplements, instead of H2/PPI drugs.

I’m not calling for medical advice or pseudo/pop science, I’m just interested to hear your stories and journeys.

My own anecdote involves using a saline sinus rinse/spray and gargle in cold/flu season and when travelling to dodge bugs, obviously I’ll never be able to prove it works but I’ve noticed less sick days over the past 2 years.

Interested to hear your examples.
This comment shows IMO that the real issue here is not really microservices or not microservices, but what the article calls "The apostles of the Church of Complexity".

Neither microservices or monolith are a golden hammer, silver bullet or whatever (nor the opposite). They are tools each with their tradeoffs, which combine with the many context-dependent tradeoffs of each organization. They are not the problem.

The problem is a) engineer's fascination with complexity, and confusing "simple" with "hack", b) how organizations keep cargo-culting tools, architectural patterns, and so forth. Applying architectures, design patterns, whatever naively, based on the belief that usage alone will deliver benefits. It doesn't.

That's very interesting.

My experience in London/UK market is that offered salaries are based on market rates based on keywords including tech stack. And I know a decent number of competent developers who deliberately moved away from PHP because of the lower offered salaries. It might just be the local ecosystem which imo doesn't really value engineering roles in general
Well, the idea of microservices would be to build some degree of flexibility into the setup, so that you can handle problems you don't have now, but you might have later.

I understand that the Monolith - if done right - is a viable option as well.

As a consultant, our customers rarely know what they want, and they can't really describe their vision, no matter how many workshops we throw at them. Microservices give us the opportunity to say "We might not know this now, but with this architecture, we won't be locked into a certain pattern or meet certain technical limitations by a monolithic approach".

It seems that what you are really paying for with microservices is flexibility and maneuverability "down the line".

Solving only the problems you have "here and now" with the simplest solution will also lead to technical debt.
The problem is, when would we get an answer? Even in the best case, that would be 240 years. But we don't have the capability of building probes which approach the speed of light, so with current technology, it is probably hundreds of thousands of years.

So the short term solution (in the order of decades) is improve the observation capabilities. More observations with the JWST should give a better idea what the next iteration of a space telescope for this job should be and give some motivation of accelerating building such a telescope. JWST itself took decades to build and deploy. It would be remarkable, if an improved telescope could be deployed in a 10 year time frame. Of course, an operational Starship would help a lot with that, as a lot of effort for JWST was the complex deployment mechanism.
Thanks! Good luck to you too!

I don’t have experience with iOS - I am actually doing a bit of macOS development with that SwiftUI because, well, desktop apps kind of take me to my teen years building VB programmes (no one called them apps, at least I didn’t).
I recently gave my .io mail to a bank and it was rejected by their system.
Yeah, this is my opinion too.

I think as VR headsets become more common place over the next decade and that will likely create a market for 3D content.

I doubt it it will be a significant market for some time, but I think VR technology is getting to the point now where people may start using headsets on flights soon and I think companies like Apple will start to invest in quality 3D content to encourage adoption of their VR devices. Although I'm still to be convinced people will want to use them at home over their tablets and TVs.
There has been an oversupply of transformer manufacturing plants in the world for decades. No one needs the Internet to start building more. The designs already exist and most of the small manufacturers are still using manual or at most semi-automatic winding machines. For large transformers this is true even in the big manufacturers like ABB and Hitachi. Stacking the cores can easily be done by hand.

The bottleneck would most likely be the supply of core steel. Increasing demands for efficiency have pushed core steel manufacturing into a few high tech manufacturers.
I’ve moved to Laravel + Inertia + React.

Feels even better than the “pages” router from next, it’s a hell lot more stable and simple, and you get a real backend framework such as Laravel which is great.
Software controllable USB ports already are a thing, Per-port power switching can be found in the USB 2.0 spec and there's a bunch of hubs out there that implement it, controllable via USB instead of I2C. Since USB 3.2 any device that has downstream type C ports is required to implement PPPS.

A DIY hub that uses a chip with PPPS support can be found here for example: https://oshwlab.com/iamseer/ch335-hub
Its like people are just trying to trigger me today. Windows has IE and edge, safari is just a slower more buggy version of that. I don't care if the js engine is 50% faster if its dom implementation doesn't follow any standard and the rendering engine is 200% slower.

If people cared about any of the above they would use edge not chrome and firefox, people care about stability and compaitibility.

Unless 'it' left a long time ago and is already here.

I always feel the 'space is big haha no one can cross it' argument is weird due to always framing it in our own frame of reference. What if the hypothetical 'thing' is like a jellyfish and time isn't as big an issue, or an AI that definitely doesn't care about time. Or a bundle of fungus that doesn't necessarily care one way or another.

This is something I've struggled to find a solution for. Do you have any suggestions? The best I've come up with is a safe with enough information to provide access to my password manager, but obviously this makes me pretty uncomfortable. I could hand it over to a lawyer as part of my will, maybe?

An employer cannot discriminate because of a pregnancy. An employer who wishes to sack you because of an illness _must_ first show that they have offered rehabilitating services (e.g. medical physiological professional aid, including alterations to the work place) or offered role changes within the company which have not been able to help.
Why this is getting blamed on JavaScript / Node.js is beyond me. Microservices were/are all the rage in Java/Scala land, and seemed to initially be pushed by (Dev)Ops engineers' desire to roll their own Kubernetes cluster (or whatever came before). I've been on multiple such project and I always loathed the additional complexity (especially combined with actors/event sourcing and Cassandra). Node.js was limited to some frontend tooling that only ran locally or in CI.
Mh, XMPP is well known, open, far lighter than IPFS... Why the hell I'd want a MONSTER software just to chat knowing that "real security" of such giants is far theoretical since they are so big that their knowability is limited for anyone and attack surface is enormous?

Dear devs I know some tech are trendy, but please focus on good tech, not monsters.

For socials we have Usenet, today antispam can handle the task, and the rest while from another era works well enough. For chat we have IRC and XMPP, with the latter far more modern, featuresful and still simple enough, we have mails. Sharing files is still complex but syncthing works for mere exchange, ZeroNet is good enough for simple distributed web.

We have enough crappy monsters from the commercial big tech world to add others.
I think this is a great point, and shouldn't be just hand-waved away like you hit some bizarre edge case of Monoliths.

Monoliths can have crippling downsides -- just different flavours of downsides from Microservices. What you gain in network latency and DRYness, you can lose in Autonomy and Breadth of codebase.

Microservices vs Monoliths - just like everything else - is a question of tradeoffs, and making informed choices about when to apply them, and how to mitigate their downsides.

The slightly more nuanced point in the OP's article is that adopting any engineering practice and blindly following as though your identity is linked to it, is a bad move.

> Always bear in mind you're not writing mails to yourself. The other party writing mails with you, might not be that happy with third parties reading their mails. Privacy is not only about you

People mailing me after I'm dead because they don't know I'm dead, probably aren't very close to me. If a marketer decides to send me deep felt confessions he needs to get off his chest, meh.
Well prices for those customers were relatively inelastic (think, business flights being comped by the employer, airlines having quasi-monopolies on routes) so the airlines knew they could raise prices without impacting demand. Conversely lowering prices likely wouldn't impact demand either. The sensible thing to do under normal market conditions would be to fly fewer flights, but when a central planner is setting your prices it changes the logic.
Actually yeah this is something I'd forgotten about, that is indeed a downside to Firefox.

I had this problem with the British Film Institute's streaming service. I emailed them about it, they replied "please try with Chrome on Windows PC" and I replied "no thanks, please send a refund, I will pirate the film instead".

>Racket also has GUI, and basically everything else you may need.

How about good docs and examples, community, decent perf for small apps at least?

Racket newbie here. Had just played around with a little some years back when it was called MZ Scheme, PLT Scheme or such. There was an IDE called Dr Scheme, IIRC. I guess all that is part of Racket now.
Allegedly physics conferences are where most of the entanglement of your kind happens
upvoted, but honestly, the other side of that coin is:

"The author posits that if you make pile of crap monolith then all you had to do instead was make microservices and magically it’ll all be fine."
These tools were built for GUIs, not typography where they were very weak. They outsourced document production to other tools like Crystal.
> So this ONE anecdote immediately means that ChatGPT is far more reliable than human doctors and can be used for medical advice? How many cases are there when ChatGPT gets its response incorrect out of 1,000 cases?

You couldn't find a more clear case of straw man. No one said ChatGPT is more reliable then human doctors. No one said anything about incorrect responses.

The fact of the matter is that ChatGPT has diagnosed a disease which 17(!!!) doctors have missed. Even if the incorrect responses is 999/1000 cases it still worth it to include ChatGPT in this process since it's so cheap.
That does not actually do anything. All Tokio APIs which demand Send closures on the MT runtime still do on the ST runtime, because the runtime flavour is not part of the API.

Actually this would be a very good first candidate for a Rust module - it's a significant newly developed piece of software, so nobody can say that they "(re)wrote it in Rust" just for the heck of it, and its impact is relatively isolated (only used on Apple Silicon Macs), so if something did break, it would mostly only hurt Asahi Linux, which is currently experimental anyway.

Wise. Every time I’ve started a project trying to make an amazing platform with everything segregated with micro services etc. I’ve spent so much more time on the _platform_ than on the actual product.

Now I go with SQLite and some basic python script and pivot from there. Ironically that’s how I used to do it before the micro service fad.

Same. More than a decade, multiple installations, multiple distros, no issues. And most of them were running PA.
I regularly receive emails sent to a person that enjoys using my email to subscribe to spam. I've also received stuff from another that used it for school and even their bank account.

And if you think verification does it, someone used their phone number and my email to register to Uber. I'd receive all their invoices and stuff. I couldn't log in because that needed phone verification. And it took quite a few rounds of Uber tech support to get them to remove my email.
None of the VBA apps I ever saw needed the internet. They were mostly internal apps that connected to a corporate database over the internal LAN for stuff like "keeping a register of who has checked out which van".
VR has definitely been just around the corner for several decades now. Well, it really is here now and there are tons of games that support it, but it's still a niche, and it may remain that way forever, because there simply are some intrinsic problems with it:

You feel like you're really in that virtual world, in which you can look around and move around, but the moment you actually try to move around, you stumble over your own furniture that you can't see. It's either going to be a very thin illusion or you're going to need a ridiculously big and expensive setup. And the fact that you're blind to the world that your body is in, is always going to be awkward. It's a fun gimmick, but it's possible that it will always remain a gimmick.
I believe all mainstream TLDs have this feature. In the past it used to be a nonissue when you renewed the domain in the grace period. Nowadays you just pay more but it still works.

Don't do it with a very desirable domain name though. The registrar might decide to grab it for themselves.
Well, Node-RED for starters. Plus homebridge, and plenty of UPNP and protocol-specific solutions that, for some reason, are coded in JavaScript.
> Thermal Cameras - I really thought every phone would have a cheap, mass manufacture thermal camera by now, so everybody could do "U so hot" jokes.

Well they kind of do - you can buy a cheap tiny thermal camera for your smartphone. They aren't built-in in most phones because it's a specialty feature and it's not "cheap" cheap.

The thing with thermal cameras is that the progress has been artificially restricted by the arms regulations, especially in the US. That was a major factor behind them staying so expensive for years despite having the tech.

I say the same thing about CUE these days, it can be a real mind bender but gives us a new way to think about taming config and schema complexity. CUE is also much easier to add into existing workflows to turn that logical programming glory into pragmatism.

So yeah...
The argument is mainly that "when you're dead you won't be able to renew the domain and someone can then take over your accounts".

That argument can be turned around and argue the opposite, I feel very good knowing that while I'm alive I'm in control of ensuring my domain remains under my control.

If I feel like I'm about to expire, I guess I'll probably renew for 10 years or something. Actually, that's a good idea, I'm gonna do that now, and just keep adding a year every year anyway, that way if I can't renew anymore, it's always at minimum mine for the coming 10 years.
Does anyone know of and TTS available now that doesn't completely muck up foreign words? I know you can make custom pronouncing dictionaries to use with some of the open source ones, but I wonder if any of the more modern systems are good for this.
