I’m very interested to see if this develops until a full bootloader unlock. Picked up CIB hardware on eBay for $70. A general purpose Linux kiosk for this price is a no brainer.

Sadly, it’s the least surprising thing these days. HN is yet another target for the propaganda bots on both sides. It wasn’t always like this.

As was mine. HN: a place for technology (and Palestine)

They do this in Iceland too

What does this have to do with technology?

I’ve experienced this on ATT

Very well said. Reminds me of the old adage about /r/crypto “a place where people who don’t believe in financial regulations learn why financial regulations exist”

This is not tech related and does not belong on hacker news

Your last six submissions are not tech adjacent. Your account appears to be indistinguishable from a sock puppet account.

As a seasoned shell programmer, when I see set -euo pipefail, I know immediately that low quality code “batched list of commands”-type code follows.

It’s bad code smell and an anti-pattern as far as I’m concerned. Anyone who has actually has taken the time to learn POSIX/BASH shell to any degree or complexity knows that it’s fully capable of catching errors in-band and that a .sh file isn’t just a dumping ground for repeating your shell history.

I didn’t say all contrarians have correction OCD, I said “some”

Edit: Thought this was a private blog but it’s actually an ad for “magecdn” as far as I can tell. Original comment regardless:

With a traditional CDN, if you set cache-control header, you can be sure that your files will be cached on the edge according to the header.

I’ve got a decade and a half of experience with Fastly, Akamai, and CloudFlare serving 100s of gigabits/sec of traffic. I can assure you this is not true at all. Cache-Hit ratio and Cache-Hit/Miss access time are highly situational and cache-control is best effort for every provider. No CDN will guarantee these values.

With a traditional CDN, you can pick a hostname (Origin) and the file will be fetched from there. So, you can run a CDN directly over, say, a S3 Cloud bucket. Cloudflare works at your website domain level, and doing this is something like that is not possible.

“Cloudflare works at your website domain level.” This is poorly written, confusing, and fortunately, not at all true. You can CNAME i.example.com to an S3 bucket hostname and use i.example.com links on example.com. This also comes with some http/1.1 pipelining advantages and is a preferable way to architect.

What people are missing in this debate is that the need to be “contrarian” for some people stems from correction OCD. It’s not that your friend is “trying to be different” or “craves attention”—-it’s that they have a compulsive tic like biting their fingernails. Shaming them doesn’t fix their underlying disorder, it just makes you a bad friend to this person. Accept that they have this limitation (in your eyes) and learn to ignore it the same way you would with somebody living with Tourettes syndrome.

There’s this site called Reddit that’s growing in popularity

Great idea but cue Tinder trademark lawyers in 3… 2… 1…

LXD is actually pronounced “lex-d” by the community and similarly, LXC is “lex-c”.

YouTube is enabling creative people to make a living wage from doing what they love the most and providing immense value to niche communities. If you get value from it, just pay for it.

You might have a genetic abnormality in the P450 family: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK574601/

My sister has defective P450 and your experience is the same as hers with opiates and other drugs, e.g. they are entirely ineffective when taken orally.

As someone with firsthand experience of a sibling with schizophrenia, this comment comes off incredibly callous and ignorant.

I encourage you to learn more about this disease because you’re gravely mistaken—it is not a transient condition of early adulthood nor is untreated isolation on anyone’s treatment plan. The disease often presents in early adulthood and is a lifelong affliction thereafter. Left untreated, the condition worsens. Drugs are taken for life because the condition is incurable.

Despite the risks, I am extremely grateful for Clozapine because it’s given me time back with my brother from this horrible disease. We’ve been through a gamut of medicines and treatments like Cobenfy are welcome. Like most families, we are jubilant at the prospect of finding better treatment options with fewer risks and side effects.
