yuvadam··on NotebookLM is now Gemini Notebook
Incredible how I have not touched a singled AI thing from google for.. probably well over a year at this point. Amazing.
yuvadam··on DynIP – Dynamic DNS with RFC 2136, IPv6, DNSSEC, and BYOD
I used to set up my own OpenWrt DDNS scripts that update AWS Route 53 or Cloudflare DNS which solved enough of that problem for me.

Then Tailscale came out and I stopped caring about DDNS or CGNAT ever since.

yuvadam··on Garry Tan, the CEO of YC, accused me of unethical reporting
leave gstack alone!
yuvadam··on Ghostty is leaving GitHub
AI slop is downstream of enshittification
yuvadam··on Tailscale Peer Relays is now generally available
Tailscale simp here, been using this feature since it launched in beta, can't believe it didn't exist earlier.

This solved every last remaining problem of my CGNAT'd devices having to hop through STUN servers (with the QoS being noticable), now they just route through my own nodes.

yuvadam··on GLM-5: Targeting complex systems engineering and long-horizon agentic tasks
Do you mind explaining what this RL infrastructure actually entails and why it's a hard problem?
yuvadam··on Running Your Own AS: BGP on FreeBSD with FRR, GRE Tunnels, and Policy Routing
If you can register on ARIN the costs are only $260/year at the smallest tier and you can also apply for a /24 which you should be able to get.
yuvadam··on Automatic Programming
I don't think it's possible to separate any open source contribution from the ones that came before it, as we're all standing on the shoulders of giants. Every developer learns from their predecessors and adapts patterns and code from existing projects.
yuvadam··on IPv6 just turned 30 and still hasn't taken over the world
how would you do SLAAC with 64 bits?
yuvadam··on Beyond the Nat: Cgnat, Bandwidth, and Practical Tunneling
Call me a tailscale simp, but since it was launched I honestly stopped caring about any of such issues.

They've built such an incredible product I actually feel guilty I pay absolutely nothing for it.

yuvadam··on A super fast website using Cloudflare workers
For static content this isn't fast.

For a dynamic service, well.. maybe implement something of interest and then we can discuss.

yuvadam··on UniFi 5G
I don't recall their latest hardware is supported, but why would you want that anyway if you're not looking to go all in on their controller stack?
yuvadam··on Moving from OpenBSD to FreeBSD for firewalls
Of course, I'm genuinely curious why BSDs are more popular as firewalls.
yuvadam··on Moving from OpenBSD to FreeBSD for firewalls
What's wrong with Linux for firewalls? Either openwrt, or any distro really.

Why would any BSD perform better?

(edit: genuinely curious why BSDs are such popular firewalls)

yuvadam··on NTSB Preliminary Report – UPS Boeing MD-11F Crash [pdf]
El Al 1862 was another flight [1] that had an engine fall off, taking another engine out with it. The pilots managed to fly around for a few minutes and attempt a landing, but there was too much structural damage.

It doesn't seem aircraft are designed to survive these types of catastrophic failures.

yuvadam··on I have recordings proving Coinbase knew about breach months before disclosure
This blog post isn't human speech, it's typical AI slop. (heh, sorry.)

Way too verbose to get the point across, excessive usage of un/ordered bullets, em dashes, "what i reported / what coinbase got wrong", it all reeks of slop.

Once you notice these micro-patterns, you can't unsee them.

Would you like me to create a cheat sheet for you with these tell tale signs so you have it for future reference?

yuvadam··on I finally understand Cloudflare Zero Trust tunnels
Tailscale now has the awesome feature of peer relays and now there's no more excuses why you can't traverse that NAT and you can forget about all those DERP servers.
yuvadam··on I built the same app 10 times: Evaluating frameworks for mobile performance
Come full circle by feeding the article back to your favorite LLM and ask it to TL;DR it for you.
yuvadam··on Alaska Airlines' statement on IT outage
Interesting idea, but their PR piece mentions a "failure at a primary data center" which at face value does not sound like a cert issue, and CT logs for *.alaskaair.com show lots of certs issued every single day, but nothing that seems mission critical around October 23 or 24.
yuvadam··on Show HN: Silly Morse code chat app using WebSockets
This is neat despite having the annoying reset bug, would be cool to practice my CW skills on this.
yuvadam··on Chess grandmaster Daniel Naroditsky has died
If you've been following the drama, his involvement is obvious at this point.
yuvadam··on Chess grandmaster Daniel Naroditsky has died
One can only hope that Kramnik is held accountable for his abusive behavior that - at the very least - had contributing factors (to put it gently) to Danya's death.
yuvadam··on US chess grandmaster Daniel Naroditsky dies aged 29

yuvadam··on Chess grandmaster Daniel Naroditsky has died
Literally yesterday my toddler son came into the room, saw me watching his last video - "You thought I was gone?! Speedrun returns!" - and asked me who that is.

I told him his name is Danya and he teaches people how to play a game.

yuvadam··on AWS multiple services outage in us-east-1
During the last us-east-1 apocalypse 14 years ago, I started awsdowntime.com - don't make me regsiter it again and revive the page.
yuvadam··on Ask HN: What are people doing to get off of VMware?
Out of the loop: what's up with VMware?
yuvadam··on Clockss: Digital preservation services run by academic publishers and libraries
I've read several pages on their website and still have no idea what this is.

The ability of the internet to collectively archive content that is important to humanity as a whole - in fully distributed and legally questionable ways - is much more impressive IMO.

yuvadam··on Fastmail desktop app
Happy Fastmail customer for many many years, I don't want or need a desktop app.

Have a solid, well-performing web app, that's all I care about.
