I'd personally use hugo[1] with the "blonde"[2] theme these days. Some time ago I wrote a tutorial[3] about getting hugo to work with a specific theme and making it NOT look like everything else, but unfortunately it still lacks dark mode.

Maybe I'll give hugo's "blonde" theme a shot in the future, because it integrates dark mode pretty well.

Generating long URLs can actually be cumbersome for sharing. You might consider using a URL-shortening service to simplify the entire process. If you're weighing the option between self-hosting and using an existing service, the deciding factor usually depends on the resources and maintenance you're willing to commit. For a more refined solution, I recommend checking out https://app.y.gy.

It's crazy how fast people start attacking your infrastructure on the Internet these days. I recently started announcing one of my /23 subnets (512 addresses) over BGP for an anycast setup, once the route was announced and traffic flowing to the router tcpdump blew up with port scan activity on all IPs of the range. Of course that doesn't have anything to do with the route, it's just that tons of people seem to indiscriminately and continuously scan for open ports on all IP ranges (my range has been unannounced for many years before so it wasn't on someones list of active servers).

I find it a shocking that people still expose internal web services (e.g. Gitlab) openly to the Internet, in my opinion you should at least have one additional layer of protection through a VPN or similar mechanism so that your services aren't discoverable from the public Internet.

I only expose SSH from a single bastion host, which is the only host that's publicly reachable, something that I'd like to get rid off in the future as well by adding a VPN layer on top.

The consensus at the very large IT provider I work for, amongst the staff, is that India is a good bet for a script running operations team, but poor on ingenuity, innovation, and creative problem solving. The best Indian talent are as good as anyone, but the average talent level is far lower than American, Asian or European.
> On top of that, the hardware is much less diverse, making it easier have a consistent experience across device

Which is why iOS is usually not the platform you need to worry about when doing cross platform projects. So it doesn't feel like a benefit to start on the least diverse platform and then move on from there.

> Back on topic, perhaps yhis kind of tool can be useful for teams who didn’t intend to or couldn’t afford to invest any effort into making an Android app.

BUSL is the worse of both world imho. People are not willing to send patch or contribute to something that is not yet open source and vendor thus does not get any benefit of having openly readable sources.
Thank you. I enjoyed the sense of play and this story more than anything I have read about the internet in a long time.

I am def burned out, and need to come up with something frivolous. I am reminded of Richard Feynman´s story of spending 10 years depressed after the war, and him finding joy of the physics in a spinning disk one day at lunch, so he could disregard what he had done before.
"readily available" is not "unavailable"-- did you purposely misconstrue the findings?

Based on your ludicrous assertion that the ABA "quotes the US Census" estimate that almost every baby born in the United States is without a birth certificate I'm assuming so.

Correct. Companies that implement such a firewall must also install their own trust stores on the machines on the network. This can be a problem when you try to use some software that uses its own trust store from a public source like Mozilla (e.g. Python libraries).

It really makes you think how much your security hinges on that trust store yet it's something most people aren't even aware exists, let alone inspected themselves.
you can use hugo if you are familiar with golang. you don't have to learn css, you can use some stock theme and stick to it. It does have a bit of learning curve though.
It's surprisingly easy to miss a dead person, it's not like they have a pink neon "HEY I'M BEING DEAD OVER HERE".

I can imagine that if I had the security officer's job, and I walked around same office every single day, I'd really stop caring at some point and could potentially miss a dead body. It's an office, not airplane landing checklist after all. Probably the guy was looking for things like open doors or damaged equipment.

my biggest universal LLM prompt engineering hack is:

2. Create new chat and feed output of (1) and get desired, well-structured answer.

My Journey to Pain-Free Typing
I don't buy this "object storage + Iceberg is all you need for OLAP" hype. If the application has sustained query load, it makes sense to provision servers rather than go pure serverless. If there are already provisioned servers, it makes sense to cache data on them (either in their memory or SSDs) to avoid round-trips to object storage. This is the architecture of the latest breed of OLAP databases such as Databend and Firebolt, as well as the latest iterations of Redshift's and Snowflake's architecture. Also, this is the approach of the newest breed of vector databases, such as Turbopuffer.

For OLAP use cases with real-time data ingestion requirements, object-storage-only approach also leads to write amplification. Therefore, I don't think that architectures like Apache Pinot, Apache Paimon, and Apache Druid are going anywhere.

Another problem with "open table formats" like Iceberg, Hudi, and Delta Lake is their slow innovation speed.

I've recently argued about this at greater length here: https://engineeringideas.substack.com/p/the-future-of-olap-t...
It turns out that TinyTapeout doesn't gate the power to the digital submissions, so they need the GDS to be auto-generated to not take down the whole chip.

If you want to route things yourself, I suppose you could use their new analog pin support, for which they gate power to keep the rest of the chip safe.
Some do, some dont, and many don't care for that as a feature since they're open source single dev efforts that are not looking to monetise.

The moat is what the top execs new it was going to be the entire time: lock in.

My vote goes to Astro.build, a pretty new but very solid tool that seems to fit your needs well. It's Javascript but nothing extra-challenging and the docs are awesome.

- Pick where to deploy: https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/deploy/
- write your content in markdown or JSX templates (very easy to learn if you're new to it)

For my tiliaradix.com [0] I use Hugo [1] with the mini theme [2]. The domain is mine and points to a github pages repo, so I get HTTPS with it too.

I think the theme is pretty clean and lean and is kinda enough for me that also don't want to mess around with css and styling. And the blog is something basically no-one would find or read unless they are getting involved with me as freelancer (embedded wireless).

I went a few months ago -- was amazing how much better the Museum of Computing was, given it obviously had a tiny budget compared to Bletchley. Bletchley was mostly a bunch of school groups being bored and filling the space, empty buildings, etc.

Museum of Computing was extra amazing because some of the volunteers had worked on the hardware on display (and I'd worked on stuff 20 years after that), so we were able to talk about the actual hardware/OSes.
obviously, you need substantial storage...

The Next Generation Pixar: How AI Will Merge Film and Games
Ok, I’ll explain it in a few short sentences.

Assume you have a new country with no money. How does anything get done? The central bank needs to issue capital that the government then allocates first.

Eventually this money makes it down to the citizens of the country who spend it. Then the government can tax that money, and that gives it non-inflationary spending room to reallocate those resources.

For example, there’s a car company that’s using up most of the country’s steel supply. But the government wants to shift the country’s manufacturing from cars to other green industries. What the government
can do is tax the car company so that it’s not able to use up as much steel, which frees up resources for other industries to utilize.

The same goes for people, since people are a country’s most important resource. Through taxation the government can influence the resource allocation of the country. That doesn’t mean that the government can’t spend without taxes though.

If you want to learn more there’s plenty of resources

Same! It reminded me of a story about the latest Phrack issue called "Calling All Hackers" [1] and made me hopeful that indeed the hacker spirit is still present in the younger generation and will always be, as long as we older folks encourage it instead of trying to hammer it down. Makes me remember the times I was a teen and I was writing code because I wanted to, not because I needed to. Sometimes I used these skills for good, other times for stupid crap like hacking the "competition" and I'm ashamed of this, but all in all this experience made me who I am today and I'm grateful that I had it. And I'm happy the next generation is still finding joy in coding.

I was curious about your claim, having spent time abroad in Germany and never having seen an honor system. In fact, what your link describes is not an honor system but a proof-of-payment system. Proof-of-payment systems are common in the US too, for example on Caltrain in the Bay Area (which reportedly has very low fare evasion rates).
The change of Elastic license resulted (or perhaps coincided) with the massive growth of other tools like Meilisearch, Quickwit, Loki, typesense, and more.

If I were to start posting defamatory material about you on various internet forums, how would you opt out of that?
Disagree. IEEE floats see a disproportionate amount of use because most programming languages make them much easier to use than more appropriate representations, and people (understandably) use the representation the language guides them to rather than seriously analysing and considering the options.
Legally speaking, they do. Elon is a shareholder there. In the case of Brazil, in the event of a company's insolvency, the shareholder's other company becomes liable and may have its bank accounts/assets blocked, this is a common case law of the Superior Court of Justice (another high court).

If by dispatch-able you mean something that can cheaply fill the gaps when wind/solar is not producing, then nuclear is not dispatch-able. For that purpose, we really only have fossil plants (and hydro in a few areas)

But if you compare the predictability of nuclear to that of wind/solar, nuclear is a lot easier to plan, and also requires way less (if any) contribution from other sources.

Also, I would argue that the current prices for building nuclear plants is at least 2-4x higher than they should be (depending on location).

If the regulations for nuclear were to be scaled back to a point where the net average harm caused per GWh was just slightly less than for the alternatives, and if we allowed a free, competitive market for the construction, nuclear would become a lot cheaper than today.

The long-term plans are of course to get rid of coal and gas, as it will be the case world wide, if humanity wants to have a future.

Part of that is, that EU-wide there are increasing costs to producing CO2. Which makes power from coal and gas more expensive. This caused a strong drop in coal energy in germany in 23, as there were cheaper alternatives. This trend is expected to continue.

Gas costs saw a spike due to the war Russia started and their attempt at blackmailing Germany and consequently cutting gas delivery to Germany. Gas usage has been reduced and gas prices are roughly back to pre-war levels. But indeed, the LNG part of it is more expensive than the russian gas. On the other side, switching heating to heat pumps will reduce the overal gas consumption drastically.

Gas never bore a main load of the grid, it is mostly for supporting short time demands. This role will be important with renewables, but the overall amount of gas energy will drop

At the same time, buildup of renewables has been greatly sped up by the current government, the electricity is already generated buy almost 60% renewables.

I notice the wrong focus: how much such storage cost vs how much it will been able to run? My slowly discharged home battery have a declared loos of 5% in ~3 years and I discharge only 10%/day normally. My car SOH (NMC though), if true from ODB state 10% loss over ~2 years. Compared to some friends I can esteem 2.3 years of useful life for NMC, 8 years for LFP if MODERATELY used (80-20% 3 time a week), for grid storage the useful life might be 1-3 year.

Secondary consider the battery production capacity: actually we do not recycle batteries except few experiments, too expensive to be done on scale, that still recycle only a part of lithium, most efficient recover let's say 80% from a new battery.

What do you expect in 10 years?

VS

what you expect if we re-build on scale modern small buildings where p.v. at a significant slice of latitude it's roughly 50% of total consumption in pure self-consumption? What if a modern home who consume in hot summer ~30kWh/day consume from the grid ~5kWh/day like a home with no A/C and in cold winter consume ~40kWh/day, ~30 from the grid instead of 90-100kWh of a classic one (data ranged from homes in Sweden to Spain)? Because you know the most we get so far was from consuming much less to do much more, where we are far better than generating more from renewables in improvements rate terms. You can't "improve" classic buildings, you can only rebuild them and we haven't enough natural resources to rebuild cities not counting it's practically impossible for mere impact of such megaproject on existing human life.

The reality is that only a spread society of small stuff can evolve, and in a changing world we need to been able to evolve. That's the resilience WEF talk, denying it at the same time.
