proton_9··on We’re making Bunny DNS free
I had my vm's price increase by around 30% percent as well but they did communicate it and the reason for it being the global ram prices going up. Even then I think hetzner is pretty good, not a lot of good cloud providers keep the port 25 open.
proton_9··on The time the x86 emulator team found code so bad they fixed it during emulation
This sounds like a really interesting story, would like to read more on why half life 2 specifically? the game itself was pretty well optimized and ran on really low end hardware even back in the day.
proton_9··on The Permanent Upper Crow
The one by Simon Sinek? I've just picked it for reading this week
proton_9··on Project Hail Mary – Stellar Navigation Chart
This was so mesmerising! Will show this to my nieces when they come visit. Kudos!
proton_9··on Show HN: An index of indie web/blog indexes
I’ve made a submission. I think as time passes there will be a niche for curated content thats free from AI slop.
proton_9··on We have a 99% email reputation, but Gmail disagrees
I got to know about this when i was setting up my email server, I have never sent emails to people i don't personally know and yet a few did land in spam and i had to ask them to mark it as not spam, that did help with improving the reputation, i also signed up on google postmaster also outlook as well i think. It's a actually a pretty easy thing to setup your own email server, i wrote about it, not the explicit details but the jist of it. https://tech.yaker.in/posts/self-hosted-e-mail-stack
proton_9··on Ask HN: Will AI put programmers our of work?
Have you read Ray Kurzweil's how to create a mind? His definition of our mind is something similar along the lines. Pattern matching/ predictions are all that we do, according to him. I didn't think we'd come so far when I read it a few years ago. Agi seems like a real possibility now and I think I should consider developing some skills besides being able to write php.
proton_9··on Why People Think PHP Sucks (2014)
Laravel has been great so far for me, I don't think js has any frameworks that are as good. Curious to know how django compares to laravel.
proton_9··on Ask HN: Comment here about whatever you're passionate about at the moment
Didn't think I'd find something like this on hn. Good luck to you mate. I'm on the journey too. Almost 2 years now, was on the verge of brink and posted something on hn to which Dan, the moderator emailed me and told me to hang in there. At the time had no one, still keep a small circle and no immediate family. His words gave me strength to survive and possibly how I ended up in recovery instead of the other side.
proton_9··on Ask HN: So you moved off Heroku, where did you go?
thanks for this mate, was looking for a free tier paas to show off some proof of concept projects, northflank seems good.
proton_9··on Ask HN: Why do people write comments?
this as well as indexing by search engines, i found some wonderful perspectives about rails for example from hn comments, things which were much better than any seo optimized content that you find now.
proton_9··on Are we going back to the cable days?
PirateBay ftw eh? haha.
proton_9··on I still love PHP and JavaScript
wow, that was some incredible performance, never thought php could be this fast, I was in a dilemma on what language to focus on as an ordinary dev, think I'll stick with php for a while longer.
