This line was no-op until the author started using the `up` script as they describe later.

> The OpenVPN server can push DHCP options such as DNS and WINS server addresses to clients (some caveats to be aware of). Windows clients can accept pushed DHCP options natively, while non-Windows clients can accept them by using a client-side up script which parses the foreign_option_n environmental variable list.

It's still not clear to me what the experience would have been if the author had only 1.1.1.1 set at the system level, not touching any OpenVPN options.
The point is it would be better than Linux in whatever way that was the reason you were writing it, but you don't have to write hundreds of different device drivers to make your cool new kernel usable.

You should read a change summary before complaining about bits missing from C99 that have in fact been added to C11.

> […] no toxic attribute like "packed structure" which makes us lose sight of data alignment […]

And you should also familiarize yourself with what's in actual ISO C vs. compiler extensions before complaining about bits that are in fact compiler extensions.
Yeah, I'd heard they were still iterating on their routine.
Yep, that doesn't use WAL mode at all, and it's a decent amount of work.

It uses a custom VFS, memory journal mode, and bypasses SQLite for optimistic concurrency handling. I dunno how it handles crash safety, or if it even uses the same on disk file format.

My point here is not that this is impossible, it's that SQlite's WAL implementation isn't meant to be pluggable, and Litestream is a very clever hack, that requires a very specific setup to work well.

It takes a fair amount of work to replicate that in other environments.
In bavaria, chernobyl was an event my parents generation fully experienced.

It was very clear (especially when you watch the old reports, i did a presentation about this in school) people didn't know a lot about nuclear and how to act upon an accident. Kids were not allowed to play on playgrounds, food had to be washed etc.

Even today if you shoot a dear, you have to check it for radiation!

its not strange.

And another reason why politics are stupid: Bavaria is reigned by the CSU. They have the majority for a very long time and the partner CDU was in power for over 16 years. None of them made any long term nuclear power strategy ever.

No one cared to plan longterm enough at all. Building nuclear is not easy and its a lot harder in a country like germany were we want to be extra save.

Even the newest europeon nuclear power plants take very long time. The last one took i think 18 years instead of 10?
You seem to be missing my point. There is no argument about one group finding about each other or about the fatal effect of bringing new diseases into the continent.

My point was that your use of "bringing together" in the context of putting it as Columbus achievement when we all know what happened and what he did when he got there was insensitive. You realise that there are people still living under the consequences of that? People have been still been dying because of it in the 90s. It is not some small event that happened a while ago but a huge continent scale massive event that is still reverberating nowadays. In deference to people who are still alive and affected by it, "Connecting" is a neutral term that better conveys what happened without having to add your own moral viewpoint on whether what he did was good.

It was horrific and it would be nice if you acknowledged that the same way you acknowledge the systematic horrors that certain countries did in a certain large scale war the previous century even if science and lots of countries progressed socially, ethical and technologically as a result of it.
Using Goodnotes (because it has pretty good search) and https://shop.astropad.com/products/rock-paper-pencil, made it a much more enjoyable experience for me.

If you think a mega-corp won't go AWOL and attempt a Banana Republic/Dutch East India Company again, but with more proxies, lawyers, SAM's, and corrupt officials to "YAS" them into integration, then you really haven't been paying attention to what globalization is really about.

The US had to ask for money back from the oil barons.

Bezos/Musk/Zuck/{untold billionaires} will have much better bargaining chips when they possess the monopoly on surveillance, money, and influence, and have proxy chairs at the U.N.

And I bet those countries would be better run in every way.
Interesting that these kind of things are done by less known companies, not the big names. At least that's my (uninformed) impression.
Those workloads would probably be better off as unikernels that can run directly on the VM, avoiding the question of which kernel to use entirely.

That’s awesome! I love the idea of starting with a breadboard—it makes everything more hands-on and helps visualize the connections better.

Yep, this is my number 1 "I wish I'd read this X years ago" book.

I'm someone who has been doing this stuff for almost two decades without really knowing this is what I'm doing. I used to think what I was going to do was systems level programming like operating systems and maybe the database systems themselves (e.g. postgres, datomic etc.). But for whatever reason my entire career (so far, but I don't see it changing) has been building data systems for businesses and users.

I read the book from cover to cover and half of it was like "ohh... that's how that works, that's what I'm doing wrong" and the other half was "shit, this is something I kinda knew after trying and failing for years, and someone has just written it down in a way I never could".
Sometimes I think for hours and hours trying to work out how to do something.

More often I’m thinking about how to avoid doing something. A really great days work is thinking until a whole bunch of coding never needs to be done cause I thought of a way to not do it.

Sometimes I attack myself for thinking too long on how to do or not do something instead of rolling my sleeves up and starting to code. But then I ease up the attack because there’s no clear way to know when you’ve done too little, just enough or too much thinking.

Some of my best coding outcomes have been the result of six hours or more staring at the screen, looking at the ceiling, pacing around the room, reading and researching, looking through code, maybe trying out a few theories with little test programs.
I feel if this was tried before Musk took over, the result could have been quite different.

Thank you, we really need a good alternative to FZ.

I haven't looked closely at the files, but I wonder if there is anything stopping us from using the new C3 riscv version instead if S3.

C3 seems to be cheaper and more stable, but maybe the performance is a bit lower?
Somehow I've apparently made a different adjustment to this than most people. My therapist was commenting on it the other day, how I do look directly into the camera when I want her to see me as making "eye contact," rather than looking directly at where I see her eyes.

She's taking this as an autistic adaptation NT people are less likely to make, like my gestures are practiced and tailored for the sake of the other, not my own sake. I want to "look in her eyes" to make a point, because that's one of the ways you show people you're making an important point, not to see how she's responding to what I'm saying.

I haven't done any of it on purpose. It's apparently just how I've adapted to the weird communication space of having a gap between actually looking at someone's eyes and being seen to be looking at someone's eyes.

“Using the D-Wave Advantage, we successfully factored a 22-bit RSA integer, demonstrating the potential for quantum machines to tackle cryptographic problems,”

This is trivial to do using msieve. By this logic, regular computers can tackle cryptographic problems too. The problem is that you cannot solve them in your lifetime on such machines and the current quantum machines cannot solve them no matter how much time is given, so there is no problem at the moment. I do not feel like this tells us anything we do not already know but maybe an actual cryptologist would be willing to read this and give his opinion.

The problem is the amount of people not willing to invest into energy storage.

If we would now buy a lot more EVs and make bi-directional charging mandatory, we would have a lot more capacity available 'out of the box'.

Additional investment into grid storage batteries would also add to economy of scale.

I never got this sentiment. Corporations as viewed from the inside are wildly incompetent—and that's before you consider profit inefficiency. I suspect this would be a lot more obvious if it weren't for the last seventy years of intentionally hampering government from competing with the market players directly. Once a product hits enshittification it benefits everyone (but shareholders, who contribute nothing to society) to nationalize the production and provide it at zero margin.

Words that the author uses to associate with coal: "extraordinary", "celebrate", "quintessential", "a feat", "flexibility", "savings"

Words used in the article in association with cleaner energy production: "squeezed", "flood", "forcing", "waste", "pressure", "plight". An the fact that banks are no longer financing coal is "bad news".

> "It's exacerbated in Delta's case because they are very unashamedly totally pro-coal"

Yeah, well, so is the article's author.
The explanation more than a single factor could be all over the place, positive feedback loops are adding their own weight to emissions and direct warming. Less ice and permafrost, more forest fires, warming waters and so on may be having by now a noticeable enough impact to explain that divergence.
> Sorry but no you don't

Yes, I really do.

I specifically want my traffic to “leak” from my VPN when traveling away from home, because my home internet upload speed is slow and I don’t want it to bottleneck everything else on my device. I only want the tunnel to be used when I am talking to my LAN.

Similarly when I’m at home and using my work VPN, I want a split tunnel there too. I don’t want every bit of traffic going over the VPN tunnel, because my work network tends to have congestion, and if I’m streaming music or something to listen to, there’s no reason that should have to go throufh my work’s network.

Before saying “nuh uh!” every time someone disagrees with you, maybe stop and consider that people have different use cases from you?
Looking at the code, it consists of long chains of get().unwrap().to_mut().unwrap().get() noise. Looks like coping with library design than ownership tacking. Also why Result<Option<T>>? Isn't Result already Option by itself? I guess that's why you need get().unwrap().to_mut() to get a value from Result<Option<T>> from an average function call?
Kind of off topic, but can someone explain why else C# has factories and interfaces? Is it just mocking? I really don't understand the pattern at all. FWIW I am no dev.

> Their research, released this month, surveyed 1,248 people — including 411 who had participated in Tulsa Remote and others who were accepted but didn’t move or weren’t accepted but had applied to the program — and found that remote workers who moved to Tulsa saved an average of $25,000 more on annual housing costs than the group that was chosen but didn’t move.

Great stat. Impressive. But is there something in the nature of rhe two subsets that say drives one to move and rent low, and the other group to stay and rent high.

No doubt Tulsa is less expensive than coastal cities, I just curious if there's not something (important?) buried in the data.

That aside, this is why many of the companies in coastal cities are pushing for RTO. Aside from keeping commercial real estate propped up, it does the same for residential. The question is, what will be the reaction in Tulsa when non-local drive up the cost of local housing.

There's got to be a tipping point, a point of diminishing return.
Show HN: An FAQ Widget That Users Actually Read
The other day I was thinking that we haven't innovated FAQ sections since the internet born. It's always the same boring collapsible crap at the bottom of your page, with questions like "What is WhateverAI?", "Why is this product good?". Really? Is this supposed to capture your visitors attention?

We stuck with this boring paradigm for decades, and we're just doing it on our sites because we saw others doing it for theirs or just to include some SEO keywords.

I got bored of these on my sites so I made something that is better in every aspect.

It's interactive, beautiful, unique and shows common questions in the key moments when your visitors browse your page.

It's AI-powered and automatically generated for your pages in seconds.

Give it a spin, it's free to start, and let me know your feedback!
You jest, but I believe @tptacek is using an LLM (ChatGPT?) to understand the details of various Linux kernel subsystem and has said it works quite well for the task.

It's not a great jump from that to "port Linux device driver for XYZ to this new OS in Rust". Won't be perfect but a lot less hassle than doing it from scratch.
I'm of the same opinion as you, and have infact built projects with zero signup requirement. racketmeter.com being one of them.
