Ok it was kinda correct, I’m a garbage collector btw.

I reckon it’s ok to be a kid and do fun things such as games, who knows maybe games spurred your current interest in tech and developing etc. Make the best of how you feel now and start reading about your new interests, you can develop on any pc it does not need to cost a large amount of money. Remember to still have fun too though!

There was a thread the other day https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32522919 where use 'giovapanasiti' mentioned Migadu not tried it yet but looks useful https://www.migadu.com/

A chime noise at the start and a choice of echo would be super cool..

Search does show non ad links for me, however I find other searches I make on Google pretty much shows me a list of ads with a couple of non ad hits at the bottom. This is the reason I switched to DuckDuckGo a few months back.

Thanks, had not heard of Migadu. Looks to be a pretty useful service.

Hmmm this is interesting, my background is industrial automation, where every day I would work with bits and bytes. But today and the last 10 or so years I have been building higher level software, machine data collection, web, db etc. I can honestly say not once have I had to deal with bits or bytes, I cannot think of an instance here I have needed the knowledge either. So I guess it’s not a requirement for software development today. But I still feel it’s important knowledge but can qualify why.

Sounds like you have VC money :) I do not spend $1000 a month, on our entire infrastructure and SaaS combined.

Interesting policy change for RDP

'The default policy for Windows 11 builds – specifically, Insider Preview 22528.1000 and newer – will automatically lock accounts for 10 minutes after 10 attempts to sign in fail. Users can tweak this, changing the number of failed sign-in attempts that trigger a lock and how long the account will be locked.'

Interesting recent discussions on hn, great to read the articles and comments has inspired lots of ideas and direction for subcare.

Hosted Postgres on digital ocean, I use Hetzner bare metal for all other services but Postgres is the one thing I use managed services for, why? I simply don’t know enough about Postgres to trust I’ll get everything resilient, backed up and secured correctly, although I guess when costs exceed managed features I’ll make the time to learn the above and host on bare metal.

IPhone 13 mini btw.

Good question, had not thought about it. Yes it is. Although not more expensive than my total personal computing as I have multiple (too many) laptops.

'at temperatures close to absolute zero and in pure, defect-free materials – quantum effects should take over their movement and allow them to flow as an electron fluid with the viscosity of honey'

Or rather OEM's won't be able to sell a new laptop with Windows 11 pre-installed without a webcam.

This surprised me, House Sparrows here in the UK seem to get along with other small birds just fine, I never see any aggression at feeders or in the hedgerows.

Made possible by the Linux Surface project, have been using this on Surface laptop 3s for a few years its pretty great and an active project. https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface

Good points, I agree.

I can see there is a need for this, if its implemented well i think it could help a lot of people, moderators, and servers. But I cannot see how i could be implemented well? which is worrying.

Guess this is early information but curious what the burden of proof is, when considering public servers outside or realms.

Initially not thought about co-pilot and other ai generators this way, but now I have I’m finding it hard to ignore.

Because of what’s been highlighted in this article I found it super difficult to figure out a good alternative to MS Office, so agree 100% with the article. Now a happy LibreOffice user.

I can imagine this already exists somewhere, Japan comes to mind.

Great to hear of nice things from companies on HN

Its all good for me in the UK. Also recommend Hetzner been great to me in the last 8 years. Not Affiliated.

This is an awesome lecture.

Wow very cool, but a hard read.

Made me chuckle this morning.

Yes completely remember, I still have production BackboneJs apps in use today.

A lot of Windows 11 excites me, but seeing it move ever closer to enforced accounts, adverts and generated news has moved me to Linux.
