Even when you ask that, make sure to ask for the "_fully diluted_ cap table". It may seem like a small detail, but if you get a cap table that's not fully diluted then what you see may differ a lot from what it ends up lookin

Also from an operations point of view it's quite easy to manage. I'm not that experienced with Postgresql, but my understanding is that until recently you had to vacuum it every once in a while. Besides, it's also using some

There is this announcement about a new snap release from November 2022 [1] in which they made this possible. So this is a relatively recent addition. Before that, Snap basically did everything in its powers to ensure that all packages were

Have you ever used it in a production / server environment? One of the problems I have with Snap is that it does auto-updates. So you can't control when updates are performed. Furthermore, you can only use Canonical's reposit

I don't disagree with your analysis. However, I do wonder if Adobe purchased Figma because of the current revenue streams, or that they'd much rather either want to prevent having to face a new competitor, or alternatively, get al

I still use Apache Httpd quite a bit, actually. Alongside haproxy, that is. The thing I appreciate about Apache is its modular layout. With Nginx I often run into a use case where I need to recompile stuff, something that never happened to

I understand where you're coming from. Recently I read someone saying that "it's just like brushing your teeth, it's what your body requires in order to keep functioning properly". That rang a bell with me. After al

I appreciate the usefulness for websites that use a passwordless login; where WebauthN is the only means of authentication. However, having implemented WebauthN on various websites as a second factor. On these websites the user is expected

I wonder if the moment this poll was published has any impact on its results. I.e., if it was published on a Tuesday during business hours would there be a different audience than the people reading HN over the weekend?

Would it not be way more useful if the NTSB focused on road design? As someone from Europe I oftentimes see very wide roads in the USA with a maximum speed of 15 mph or something, their design does not stop one from driving 50+ mph, however
