There are actually two separate pricing increases. One was introduced about 1-2 months ago. The one from today was announced at the end of May, without actually revealing new pricing then. The new levels were made public today or yesterday,

AI bots (or clients claiming to be one) appear quite fast on new sites, at least that's what I saw recently in few places. They probably monitor Certificate Transparency logs - you won't hide by avoiding linking. Unless you are ok

But that moves the burden of maintenance from the provider of the service to its users (and/or partially to intermediary in form of "skills registry" of sorts, which apparently is a thing now). So maybe a hybrid approach woul

I do for some time now, on the scale of around 20 hosts in their cloud offering. No restarts or network outages. I do see "migrations" from time to time (vm migrating to a different hardware, I presume), but without impact on metr

You can decouple Postgres and surrounding userspace upgrade cycles from your host os, if this is something that you want. Or run multiple different PG versions (have independent upgrades schedule) without being tied to the host os specific

Ah, good point.

Yeah, but then you can just as well use http-01 with like same effort.

Fair point, but it's a place with some useful properties. All the rest of the effect will depend on the specifics of your network. Observing the impact on localhost shows scale of the effect that does not come from the network (more or

For those interested - I've checked and observed a difference of 0.2ms on average across 1000 connection attempts on localhost.

Some of you cite your favorite strips. I will too. Dilbert comes down to the caves where trolls (accountants) reside and gets a tour. The guide points to a troll sitting behind a desk, and mumbling in a stupor: "nine, nine, nine...&quo

I find consumer vs producer to be very interesting and useful distinction. Sometimes very enlightening and somewhat scary when applied to personal time spending.

Yes. Run this as a validation step during base os image creation, if such image is intended to start system with sshd. That way you can verify that distro you use did not pull the carpet from under your feet by changing something with base

I like your argument about implicit index. But is an article an index to the attached media? Not even "just", but "at all"? Is this the right abstraction? Or do we have a better one, achievable by simply removing the tra

I do parse it that way. My position is that it's not the proper form for the function. Note that both trailing slash variant examples you have provided (HN and Google) do redirect to non slash ones. In fact, personally, I don't ex

Nice read. I wish there was one more paragraph though: "I don't use trailing slashes in article URLs. Blog post is a file, not an index of a directory, so why pretend otherwise?" But then it's http://rachelbyt

I wonder if constant work pattern would be a good choice for this setup. That is always send all the logs from logfwdr to logpush and only at this stage take all the data that was not actually requested by the client and send it to the loca
