gramakri2··on Ubuntu 26.10 completes transition to Rust-based coreutils
We already had a problem with sudo-rs not handling all the options that previous sudo did. I am quite surprised sudo-rs is now the default even.

Yup, npm install takes forever
gramakri2··on A Remarkable Assertion from A16Z
Missed chance to end the article mid sentence
gramakri2··on PHP 8.5
IMO, newer PHP is still very readable. I programmed with C++ for a decade, but I can safely say that I cannot understand a modern C++ code base anymore.
gramakri2··on Your smartphone, their rules: App stores enable corporate-government censorship

ahem, heard of cloudflare? web hosters and developers are voluntarily centralizing themselves.

Man hats off to you. Great work
gramakri2··on Visual Basic 6 rebuilt in C# – complete with form designer and IDE in browser
Oh the memories. How does this work? Is it built using an emulator of old VB6 code ? (didn't realize it was opensource) . Or is everything built from scratch?
gramakri2··on Why does everyone run ancient Postgres versions?
How does one backup a sqlite without stopping the app or disrupting service? I couldn't find a simple answer to this
gramakri2··on Show HN: I made an open-source personal dashboard builder
The link to license is broken. It links to LICENSE.md instead of LICENSE

Incredibly well done! Great execution

I have no idea what this analogy means but it made me laugh :-)

yeah, that's fair. Maybe just remove the share link for daily puzzles? Great puzzle btw.

Nice game! Finished a small one now - https://huewords.snellman.net/share/44s0 . Let me try something harder.

gramakri2··on Ask HN: S3/Cloudflare R2/GCS/Wasabi/B2/Bunny or Minio/Seaweed/Garage/Ceph?
Looks like this was just some random failure! All looks good now. I was looking at HN for cloudflare errors and your was the first :)

Well, it turns out https://developers.cloudflare.com/api/operations/dns-records... now returns "null" in result . I think it returned empty array before.

gramakri2··on Ask HN: S3/Cloudflare R2/GCS/Wasabi/B2/Bunny or Minio/Seaweed/Garage/Ceph?
Cloudflare DNS seems to be down at the moment :-) The API calls return "null" as the result like `'{"result":null,"success":true,"errors":[],"messages":[],"result_info":{"page":1,"per_page":100,"count":0,"total_count":0,"total_pages":1}}'`
gramakri2··on Redis adopts dual source-available licensing
Not sure what exactly the point is. The OP is saying almost 0 users are affected and this is not true. I was only saying that the license change affects quite some people. Whether rightly or wrongly is not mine to debate (I have nothing to do with redis!).
gramakri2··on Redis adopts dual source-available licensing
But that is not what I am asking though. The OP is saying almost 0 users are affected and this is not true.
gramakri2··on Redis adopts dual source-available licensing
Why do you think almost zero users are affected by this change? If a business was built on hosting redis or providing managed redis, that company is now inviable, no?

note: I am not disagreeing with the license change, just asking why you think nobody is affected.

gramakri2··on I turned my open-source project into a full-time business
We still use andris9's mailtrain even though the project has long died. Thanks andris9 for so many of email related node.js projects! Invaluable.
gramakri2··on Winding down Google Sync and Less Secure Apps support
I don't think the title is correct. IMAP/SMTP will still be supported with App Passwords. That's my reading of it.
gramakri2··on 15 years ago, I helped design Google Maps
Stupid question: but how do you search for something along a specific route? The search nearby thing never quite works for me, it keeps zooming out / clearing, I never got the hang of it.
gramakri2··on 15 years ago, I helped design Google Maps
what we need is skins and themes like... winamp!
gramakri2··on Emmet Shear statement as Interim CEO of OpenAI
> This is so weird, like a warrant canary but with heart emojis on what we used to call Twitter, but is now called X. I'm living in such an unexpected timeline.

not sure why you got downvoted, but I am with you. I find all this is hilarious.
