What’s your setup for self hosting? Do you use a vps or host on your own network?

I feel like I did at one point, but I should probably try again

Yeah I’m not super surprised… It used to work well when I bought it back in '17 but it’s become worse and worse with updates.

I’m not a home theater power user, but this is good info to make sure my setup is future proof for when I finally get a new TV. All these different standards get really confusing.

Kagi is the same as ddg 99% of the time.

I’ve been happy with Qwant lately, they have their own index so using them doesn’t support the Google + Bing hegemony. They’re also EU based and regulated by the gdpr.

Phone numbers are no longer required iirc

You can’t e2e the to and from headers in an email. that’s a problem with the protocol, not with proton. I’d assume the subject line falls into a similar bucket, because mailservers probably want to use it to filter spam

I think they might be using it as a beta testing ground for their back end features, the brand is also pretty valuable in and of itself. The traffic avoidance is much more aggressive than Google maps

There’s no reason Gmail should be included in search of it’s broken up. Otherwise agree though.

Buyouts shouldn’t be allowed by default. The only cases where it should be allowed are when the business being bought out is struggling to the point where a buyout is really the only way to prevent bankruptcy. It should never be a good deal for the selling company and only a last resort to stop closing doors completely.

If they forced them to split Waze off and make it independent again it probably could, it’s probably the only non default app I see people use regularly

I’m not sure Logitech can build a forever mouse anymore with the way their QA’s gone. Who’s buying new mice regularly anyway?

Finding new ways webshits fuck up the most basic development principles boggles my mind. It’s like they intentionally stay ignorant.

Monetization plan might be to sell prints of platformed artists work, with out any need for pesky royalties.

I don’t really think it’s any of those things in particular. I think the problem is there are quite a few programmers who use OOP, especially in Java circles, who think they’re writing good code because they can name all the design patterns they’re using. It turns out patterns like Factory, Model View Controller, Dependency Injection etc., are actually really niche, rarely useful, and generally overcomplicate an application, but there is a subset of programmers who shoehorn them everywhere. I’d expect the same would be said about functional programming if it were the dominant paradigm, but barely anyone writes large applications in functional languages and thus sane programmers don’t usually come in contact with design pattern fetishists in that space.

IMO the syntax is fine except for the borrow checker shit that just looks arcane. The fact that everything cargo drags in is statically linked really turns me off the language for anything serious. It’s really unfortunate because I’d otherwise put some time into learning it, but it seems like the rust foundation is fine with this (ridiculous IMO) workflow.

Tbf, does anyone actually “like” C++?

Yeah, for this reason I would pretty much never encourage exceptions in Python over some other form of error handling. It’s so frustrating when called code throws some random exceptions that are completely undocumented. This is one of the few things Java got (sort of) right

Another account with exclusively Kagi shilling comments? Add this one to the pile.
