Microsoft is pushing everyone onto Entra. There are so many exploits for AD but few for Entra.

Tenable has been pushing an internal initiative to eliminate all AD use. This action speaks volumes considering they acquired an AD security company and sell a product specifically designed to secure AD.

The consequences of a compromised AD domain are drastic. We should not try to build the same vulnerabilities into Linux environments, but it’s undeniable there is value in leveraging FreeIPA et al. to interoperate with legacy environments.

Balancing health while being productive as an average adult seems like an impossible equation today.

Many people tell me I need to lift weights to lose weight.

On mornings when I actually put in real effort, I pay for it with a significant cognitive performance penalty for the remainder of the day. I want to do nothing more than sleep an hour after a workout, which is bad timing, because that's when I need to clock into work.

I stay hydrated, get enough sleep, etc. People tell me that I'm over training, which is ridiculous, because anything less would be easy and contravene the purpose of the workout.

This is why I prefer to exercise in the evening, but there are known negative effects [0] of physical exertion on sleep quality.

If I actually did all the exercise I needed to do at the gym in the morning, then I'd probably have to sleep at 9:00 PM and wake up at 4:00 AM. There's no room to live in that schedule.

It's a cycle.

Then why does every vibe-coded "Show HN" app have it in README.md? Surely authors would edit it out if it was true that everyone hates it.

Sounds interesting. There's one person in my family who is particularly good at this. We could all learn a lot from them if we had regular "family admin" parties.

I found the app and it's website. Links for reference:

Is there a way to read more blog posts? I couldn't find a "Blog" area from your site's navigation menu.

MDST is exciting and so was this blog post. I'd like to read more.

Fantastic work! It's a long-needed breath of fresh air for the Visual Studio DX. I wish msvcup was existed when they made us use it back during Uni.

Alternatively, there's this:

Perhaps people have mimicked the style because LLMs have popularized it and clearly it serves some benefit to readers.

I have a personal Android but spend a lot of time on a work iPhone. I was not expecting the keyboard (and voice-to-text) to be such a poor experience on iOS. Selecting text and autocorrections are both a nightmare.

What I know for sure is, if I could, I would invest my money into clean drinking water infrastructure for both communities. Helping families pay the water company to distribute jugs of filtered drinking water is great, but infrastructure that's not contaminated would be so much better for everyone.

I don't disagree with you, but there is value in considering how money could be best put to use for the common good.

One perspective overlooked here is the purchasing power of non-Americans (i.e., not U.S. citizens). Dollars in developing countries can be worth multiple times what they are in the United States. For example, you could help 5000 rural Vietnamese for every 1000 rural Americans. There is also a higher potential for rural Americans to obtain dollars vs. non-Americans. In utilitarian terms you have the potential to do more good by sending money to rural communities overseas.

I'm saying this as someone who loves Appalachia.

How can the alignment of Right to Repair and Republicans not be obvious?

The self-made John Galt who "makes do" without government assistance by repairing all of his things himself, especially his old American muscle car that "they don't make like they used to anymore" is a fantasy that resonates so strongly with the right wing that the FBI might as well just use it to screen for domestic terrorists.

Has anyone created a set of C4 diagrams for fundamental things, like the various processes that might all be running on an idle Debian/CentOS/Alpine system?

On Android, if you allow it to backup to your Google cloud storage, it will say the backups are encrypted. That was my experience when I set it up a few weeks ago.

Exactly who has the ability to decrypt the backup is not totally clear.

It may be a different situation for non-Android users, Android users who are not signed in with a Google account, Android users who are not using Google Play Services, etc.

Is there any affiliation with AlmaLinux project?

I prefer a more extreme ergo layout, but this was recently added to my collection. It may tick your boxes: https://pandakb.com/shop/keyboard-kit/gboffsetkey-70-mx-spli...

A guide like this for South Korea's Incheon airport (ICN) be pretty valuable.

My experience in a BYD is they'd be in very high demand across the U.S. if it were possible to buy them here.

  Location: Da Nang, Vietnam

I was wondering what I'd need to do to set myself up as a Da Nang resident. Why didn't I think of a backdoored Linux distribution?

I haven't tried this, but I've had a similar drink: Sparkling Protein from Genius Gourmet.

The Genius Gourmet drink is made with whey, which isn't the best choice for a soda IMO. The Beyond Meat version has real potential to be better.

If this trend continues, then self-hosting may become the final bastion of hobbyist FOSS.

It's a trend with Apple as well. It can be seen in iOS/macOS 26 Tahoe. There's lots of untapped potential in those iPads with M-series CPUs. We've also had rumors of a "MacBook Air Lite" sporting a cellphone A-series CPU. The convergence is happening.

I would love to be able to do more with my Google Pixel phone. Right now, the MacBook is my primary workstation, but the possibility of an even more "mobile" productivity setup is very enticing. Now if only I could get an Android tablet with the new "Terminal" feature in Android 15...

You'd think these Chinese billionaires' workers, whose family prospects have been sacrificed for bourgeoisie harems, would start some kind of socialist revolution or something...
