The musl community is one of my favorite things on the internet. It's obvious that many members of it could be making a generous salary at any number of companies but they're just hanging out on IRC because they don't give a

To get off into the weeds a bit... I've actually spent quite a bit of time using Illumos. The epicenter of The Suck begins, in my mind, with the effort involved in actually building the system. GCC (and Clang) obviously didn't exi

Competition from Linux has become very stiff. For me, Kubuntu 19.10 delivers on all of the promises that OpenSolaris made back in the day. My laptop has two 1TB SSDs in a ZFS mirror. Docker works as you'd hope, creating a new ZFS datas

In my defense, I wasn't trying to do any of those things. I don't want personally want to be involved, I don't want the military of my country to be involved, and to the point of this story: I don't even really want my i

I wanted to use the NVidia GPU in this laptop, it just doesn't work as well as the Intel GPU (I hate screen tearing). I think this will be great as a development environment once I get around to making Docker work with the NVidia dri

I love this concept and I love that it is proliferating. Purism offers what I'd consider to be more attractive hardware, but that's very subjective. As of Kubuntu 19.10, I actually consider Linux to be the best operating system fo

I'm a happy Protonmail user and I think this (even if it were true) is only an issue if you are being unrealistic. All companies can be legally compelled to take action regardless of their jurisdiction. If you have some gratuitously pa

The worst part of it, in my experience, is that it can be hard to tell a food founder from a bad founder until you've spent some time working with them. I think that venture capitalists have the same issue although they generally have

Based solely on the title, I assumed this article was going to be about Jeff Bezos. We're entering a brave new world where all compute is rented from Bezos and can only be used for the furtherance of his agenda. The recent tabloid scan

I went to elementary school with the founder of RapidSOS and it's pretty cool to see one of us country boys making the front page of HN! If I'm being objective about this, I think it's a fairly good idea in the abstract but i

I realize it's somewhat off topic, but I feel like Joyent Manta deserves an honorable mention. It's an S3 style object store, but you can spin up containers on top of objects and do massively parallel computations with Unix tools.

Is it possible to start an S corporation instead? Part of the appeal of Delaware is that transitioning from S->C is a well defined process, and a C corp seems a bit silly for many businesses.

Speaking only for myself, I'm not surprised at all about this. I use Lyft exclusively, the app is much better than Uber and I've had much better experiences with the drivers (possibly just by chance). I'm eagerly awaiting the

If Mike Pall happens to read this, I feel like he's really selling the world short by not writing a book about dynamic language implementation. It could influence generations of programmers! Right now you have to piece together some of

I've been waiting on this for years! Not specifically THIS, but hardware along these lines. I'd like to see at least 4GB of RAM, and then I think that I could use this with Alpine Linux as my daily driver. Not quite perfect yet, b

Yeah, that was my first thought after a cursory reading, y u no <stdint.h>? There seems to be a lot of great content regardless. I'd love to see an updated version.

I'm not convinced that the goal here is actually to obstruct intelligence agencies, I think they'd just use a shell company or flatly demand access if they wanted it. As far as I'm aware, the Library of Congress is archiving

Frankly, I don't think our government really has any idea how to deal with what is actually happening right now.

I think it's time to confront the reality that we have a serious asshole epidemic in America. It has gone unchecked for a few centuries and it has reached a fever pitch of state sanctioned torture and Donald Trump supporters. Much like

I'm really excited about array comprehensions, anyone know if that's actually going to be part of ES2015? Google kinda gives me mixed messages on this one.

I have this dystopian Foxconn style vision of sweat shops where they force people to unwind stacks in binaries compiled without frame pointers because they're using a register starved architecture and they think that using SP as a gene

Let THEM omit frame pointers for a decade or two, it is in the broader national interests of America.

Right, I saw that, I just can't see any motivation to make it profitable and then issue a pull request. Maybe I'm missing something?

I can't imagine why anyone would actually want to release a profitable trader. Isn't this kind of a tautologically dumb thing to do?

I've been giving some thought to an AWS Lambda equivalent on Joyent Triton (largely because it's open source). You'd have RethinkDB (DynamoDB), Manta (S3), your choice of queue, TensorFlow, etc. I'm generally a huge fan

I meant direct cash-in-your-pocket subsidies like the ones I mentioned, including food stamps. I get what you're saying, the point of that post wasn't woe is me... but the quality of roads, policing, and public education also tend
