Arbitrarily decided is how all judicial and jury decisions are made. They're all arbitrary. There are no objective court cases like this one. We have a justice system, it arbitrates. Sometimes those decisions are surprising. But like, using arbitrary in this way suggests you don't like the judicial apparatus generally.
Teslas are awful to own. Got rid of mine because it was a constant headache. The dashboard crashed to black completely, several times, on the highway and the service center was like, "we can sell you more ram lol".

Luddites were highly educated, skilled workers whose work was being replaced by machines. They just wanted to operate the machines and share in the increased productivity.
There's absolutely no parallels here, to AI. A machine that is taking work from highly skilled labor ohhhh wait
One can avoid container orchestration by avoiding the trend of containerizing your app.
It wastes system resources, provides half-baked replicas of OS services, reduces overall security while simultaneously making networking a total pitas.
Your cloud provider is already divvying up a racked server into your VPS's, via a hypervisor, then you install an OS on your pretend computer.
While i can see how containerized apps provide a streamlined devops solution for rare hard to configure software that needs to run on Acorn OS 0.2.3 only, it should never be the deployment solution for a public facing production web service.
Are we not allowed to expect reliable uptimes from a cloud provider? What part of "fly.io has a documented history of prolonged downtimes and data redundancy issues" do you disagree with? Are you calling everybody liars who have had bad experience with fly.io, frankly, business and reputation loss that came as a result of trusting fly.io ?
Similarily, MSFT recently announced the upcoming ability to clone your voice for Teams meetings. Extrapolating, in a few months, there will be Teams meetings which are only frequented by avatars. At the end of the meeting, you get an email with the essential content. Weird times ahead.
I respect your view. I'm not involved with Lucia btw but i do feel v2 covers a lot of those edge case you described and for almost all sub 100k concurrent sessions I find pocketbase deliver here (if anybody is interested).
I guess one clear difference is the lack of a marketing department from something well funded. I recall another HN comment here that said the best business model is to take something people can do already and mark it up by selling the pain points, that could be whats also helping all these auth as a service vendors.
I built Peekzip to solve a common problem I had: safely inspecting ZIP files without downloading software or opening them and run the risk of ZIP bombs, remote code execution exploits and hidden executables or scripts.
Peekzip lets you instantly view any ZIP file's contents right in your browser. Just drag & drop, and boom - you can see everything inside. No downloads, no software, no security risks.
I’ve built this project mainly for my own use case, but wanted to share it here to get feedback and perhaps if someone else finds it useful.
I wonder how successful market pivots are, on average.
Seems like flailing to me.
How can one take money to achieve x, build plans and hire people to achieve x, and then do y instead and not fall down in the necessary interval, unless the y product happens to be a side effect of x?
I'm really shocked at the unprofessional damage control on display here, tptacek is downright belligerent and even going to insult people for wanting reliability from a cloud provider.
Instead he doubles down on the long history of unreliability and downtimes with immature retorts and word plays.
It's unfortunate, I've given him a chance to explain but he repeatedly goes on the offensive and extremely condescending to people who naturally are dismayed by fly.io's recorded history of unreliability.
I can see that it has already eaten both your participles and your punctuation. Your user name couldn't be more apropo. However your sycophantic ramblings will not likely enhance your own bank account.
I for one would like to see Alex Jones on the DOGE committee because of all the things he was up to in the decades past. Not a popular opinion I know, but there it is.
It amazes me how excited people are to see their livelihoods destroyed. I'm retired, but people designing AI in their 20's will be unemployed in a decade. Good luck dudes and dude-ettes, you're fucking yourselves.
Is it right? That's endlessly debatable. But is it unusual, unexpected or 'not who we are'? No, that is clear and if anything this is at the mild end of recent weaponisation of political office against businesses.
I caught my husband so many times through his chats and all about cheating on me and when i told him he always claims that he has changed and all. right now he hides his phone from me and i still guess he is cheating cause i could not break into his phone any more so i was referred to a hacker named FRED who i ran to for help and this hacker was able to break into his phone and proved me with the access to my husband phone without my spouse knowing about the hack. Right in my phone I have all my husband's daily activities . I got to read all his chats, texts, calls, WhatsApp, Facebook, and many more. This hacker is really great, thank you. Did you find this review helpful? contact him via Gmail FREDVAL CYBERGHOST @ GMA IL . COM and you can text,call him on +..1..51..77..98..18..08 or +..1..97..82..95..17..63
The brilliance of reddit was "anyone can create a reddit that they run for any topic" so the "community" was handed to the people and the site managed infrastructure.
In the time-honored tradition of virtualization, I would propose simply to have "moderator" subscriptions similar to subreddit subscriptions. At face value the site is unmoderated (modulo necessary legal requirements), a user may moderate as they please, have AI moderator filters, and share these publicly at their choice, and subscribe to moderations others have shared.
The whole free speech issue began when sites decided that they ought to know what people should and should not be listening to and reading. Easily fixed though, keep the speech free, it's free to the person who speaks, and let the listener and reader choose on their own what they shall and shall not listen to.
People gravely miss-understand containerization and Docker.
All it lets you do is put shell commands into a text file and be able to run it self-contained anywhere. What is there to hate?
You still use the same local filesystem, the same host networking, still rsync your data dir, still use the same external MySQL server even if you want -- nothing has changed.
You do NOT need a load balancer, a control plane, networked storage, Kubernetes or ANY of that. You ADD ON those things when you want them like you add on heated seats to your car.
But...you're not, this is entirely normal politics now. DeSantis has been waging open war on Disney for years, Cruz has gone after everyone from Blackrock to Target for political reasons. The incoming administration has made no secret it intends to use any and every lever to hurt any opposition. At some point you need to stop pretending to be surprised by entirely quotidien events and accept this is in fact precisely who you are.
Lots of people in this thread alluding to similar experiences "speaking truth to power" or "failing to read a room" or "not playing politics" and suffering the fallout from it. But as someone at the start of their career I'm kind of interested in the specifics--what kinds of ethical concerns? What forms of retaliation? Everyone's being pointedly vague and I guess that's necessary to an extent to preserve internet anonymity (or maintain a reputation, if your professional work is tied to your HN account) but it is frustrating as someone trying to figure out how to "read the room."
