Not really OSS though
Nikkau··on Migrating Burningboard.net Mastodon Instance to a Multi-Jail FreeBSD Setup
If you use *BSD, you have to use jails, it's just law

You should add a section to explain why OpenAPI isn't enough (narrator's voice: it is).

Otherwise, it just seems you vibecoded the wheel.

They doesn't seems against free speech but how Ted choose to use their free speech.
Nikkau··on Fresh evidence of ChatGPT’s political bias: study
> Due to the model’s randomness, even when impersonating a Democrat, sometimes ChatGPT answers would lean towards the right of the political spectrum.

Seems fair.

Nikkau··on Stacked images of the comet, photobombed by Starlink satellites
It's bad faith, a normal stacking would have made them completely disappear, it's one of main reasons to do stacking, remove things which are not on all images, and it's works flawlessly.

You have to actively tweak your settings to create this kind of photo.

Nikkau··on Kickstarter’s staff is unionizing
> It always seems to degenerate into an "us vs them"

That's the point, "us vs them" is pretty good upgrade from "me vs them"

Nikkau··on Nginx Is Giving Away a Free O'Reilly Book on Cloud Native Devops with Kubernetes
That's the trick.
Nikkau··on Nginx Is Giving Away a Free O'Reilly Book on Cloud Native Devops with Kubernetes
They thought it was free.
Nikkau··on Ask HN: Should I Be Ashamed to Love JavaScript?
> I feel like JavaScript is the laughing stock of the programming community sometimes...

Don't worry, it's PHP.

Nikkau··on Amazon Key is a new service that lets couriers unlock your front door
Next step: Amazon guys have to wear a shock collar by contract, an IA oversees every drop and stun him if anything suspect happen.
Nikkau··on Nomad Task Versioning
The proper way isn't to specify artifact checksum?

When you rebuild your "main", you update the checksum and Nomad should see it as a change, no?

I can't test right now, I don't know if Nomad pick the job change and download the new artifact or just fail the check.

Nikkau··on GitHub's terms: A2 – You must be a human
On https://developer.github.com/guides/managing-deploy-keys/#ma...

Tip: Our terms of service state:

    Accounts registered by "bots" or other automated methods are not permitted.
This means that you cannot automate the creation of accounts. But if you want to create a single machine user for automating tasks such as deploy scripts in your project or organization, that is totally cool.
Nikkau··on Atom
This is a text editor.
Nikkau··on Thousands play one game of Pokemon simutaneously
It's streaming lag, the input lag should be far higher.

I suspect a very simple setup :

- An IRC bot listen for message including a key name and queue them somewhere (Redis maybe?).

- Another process just dequeue keys and apply them in emulator.

Nikkau··on Deploying full fledged flask app in production
It's actually a wrong way of doing things.

We are almost in 2014, you must use a configuration manager. It's better and simpler.

Nikkau··on Forge - Static hosting made simple
Free plan without custom domain is useless, no point to test your service.
Nikkau··on Securing a Linux Server
Can I haz an Ansible playbook with good things?
Nikkau··on OVH Security Incident
Yeah, as great as Github... Oh wait!
Nikkau··on Scale PHP on EC2 to 30k Concurrent Users
Title is misleading, when only 3% of requests hits PHP, you don't "scale PHP".
Nikkau··on DNSimple Price Increase
Ok, why it's more expensive?

Saying "raising our prices will help us to continue to improve across the board and bring you better, more solid DNS services" is the exact opposite of transparence.

Nikkau··on Piracy Doesn’t Hurt Game of Thrones, Director Says
Phone call is coming.
Nikkau··on Nginx vs. Apache in AWS
"Moreover… Nginx wasn’t always the winnner." is my favorite part.
Nikkau··on Google Glass - If I Had Glass
It's not a gamble a sec.

You can flip them at least 10 times the price day one for sure. A lot more if you wait.

People love making collections of expensives things.

Nikkau··on Nginx now supports Websockets
They are busy trying to be able to support Rails apps for now.
Nikkau··on Nginx Requests/Second – RaspberryPi vs Amazon EC2
A blog is nearly a read-only webapp, it's the easiest type of website to scale.

If you can't avoid 502s with trafic HN can make, you should'nt do benchmarks about hosting matter.

Nikkau··on New Freebox update censors ads by default for 5.5M users
Free isn't modifying HTML, but filtering ads servers IPs.
Nikkau··on Internet arrived, and broke stuff. (Post HN/Reddit Traffic)
If you have cpu issues with a blog post you are doing it wrong.

If your CDN is useless because of cpu burning on your side, you are not using your CDN.
