I've just finished playing this awesome game again, it allows building computers as simple as playing factorio/satisfactory

Just visiting Japan, just realised that IC cards are super fast compared to London, crazy relevant article!

They’re definitely faster, which is nice and surely preferable…

But the London Underground gates are fast enough, with enough space from the reader to the gate, that if you’re ready (and the gate isn’t congested) there’s no need to slow down even from a very brisk walk to pass through.

Yeah, the fair way would be show DOGE estimates for 10 years as well

It's /con/con all over again

The same should apply to configuration, we have prisma for sql, we should have something like this for JSONs, like https://typeconf.dev (I’m one of the founders)

I switched to Linux 12 years ago and still use it daily, although I think the problem is bigger than that. Even though hardware support is getting better, some bugs are lingering for years, and Wayland took such a long time to be a viable option. Now, as desktop became more complex to support, new platforms are coming, VR and mobile.

Mobile: I own Librem 5, and it was the biggest purchase disappointment I have ever had. I've been ridiculed by my friends while I was waiting for it for years, and when it was delivered, it was too outdated to use. The only silver lining from this is that mobile support exists in GNOME and KDE now. Hardware is still not there.

VR: I have not seen any viable option.

I'm optimising, and hoping that with AI it would be easier to support all of this, but now it looks kinda gloomy.

HN has declared supabase dead, how sad

Even if the project was built with it.

This makes me wonder if this the way to do schema generation in Typescript. I’m working on Typeconf, and we have a separate step for translating Typespec schema to Typescript, it’ll be cool if we could just load typespec directly.

I feel like I should just be able to generate k8s configs from Typescript with Typeconf if I add all the types there, is anyone interested in this?

Yes. CDK has made me a fan of Typescript.

Oh, I didn’t know it was posted as recently as December, I just stumbled upon this again and assumed maybe not a lot of people have seen this recently

He's _such_ a great writer/speaker. It's totally worth reposting him every 3 month.

I think this is my favourite piece of his, "This world of ours":

I thinkbhe's a better writer than speaker, but I suspect if I'd seen him speak first I'd have it the other way around.

I love all his Usenix articles and they always cheer me up if I'm having a grumpy day at work.

For me, acknowledging that:

"YOU’RE STILL GONNA BE MOSSAD’ED UPON"

is quite comforting at times.

When I'm doing security related thinking at work (or at home), understanding that if a powerful nation state's security forces become "interested" in what you're doing means you've already lost, takes the pressure off striving for perfection and trying to design systems that are secure against "the global passive observer" who's already NSL-ed your TLS cert provider and your cloud host. I admire what Signal/WhisperSystems build, but the project we're building at work that's topologically equivalent to just another CRUD app can't afford and doesn't need to be secured against the NSA or any of their Fiveeyes henchmen.

This is the first time i've seen it, so you got one! thanks!
