At least opening PRs is a safe option, you can just dump the whole thing if it doesn't turn out to be useful.

Also, trying something new out will most likely have hiccups. Ultimately it may fail. But that doesn't mean it's not worth the effort.

The thing may rapidly evolve if it's being hard-tested on actual code and actual issues. For example it will be probably changed so that it will iterate until tests are actually running (and maybe some static checking can help it, like not deleting tests).

Waiting to see what happens. I expect it will find its niche in development and become actually useful, taking off menial tasks from developers.

However, every PR adds load and complexity to community projects.

As another commenter suggested, doing these kind of experiments on separate forks sound a bit less intrusive. Could be a take away from this experiment and set a good example.

There are many cool projects on GitHub that are just accumulating PRs for years, until the maintainer ultimately gives up and someone forks it and cherry-picks the working PRs. I've than that myself.

I'm super worried that we'll end up with more and more of these projects and abandoned forks :/

Really cool website. Found it while trying to understand the issues with support for wifi6E.

Reading that the "normal power mode" would require sending GPS coordinates to a central database explains the limited support/availability I guess. And the regulations are different per country..

Creating wifi 6E hotspots still seems to be impossible with windows and the available wifi6E hardware.

And sellers seem to take advantage of customers, who mostly don't understand the difference between wifi6 and wifi6E. Even Meta seems to do it for Quest3. They advertise a dedicated, super fast wifi TP-Link USB-stick which only supports wifi6 and not 6E(which is the whole point of using wifi6 with the Quest3)

Anyway..

Sorry but the landing page is super annoying.

Everything gives the impression of being clickable and not even half of it is.

Then I click on "crazy fast loading times" and a slow popups overlay appears.. the slider and the animations are feel deliberately annoying - slow slide.. when a slide is in the center it stops.. takes a deep breath and then is beeing reminded that it has to load it's three arms and bubbles... and all that for explaining in 2 sentence what open source is.

(And the overlay not being dismissable with ESC is annoying)

Either the formatting of the lists is broken or AI is so advanced, that it just prepares, cooks and enjoys a meal in one single step.

I'm assuming the latter.

Besides the performance problem, I’m happy to use Teams daily since it’s integrated directly with Office 365 apps. Easy to open, share, manage, note, meeting…

They already have a newly written Teams App in preview that should solve the performance issues: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-teams-blog/...
6uhrmittag commented on Ask HN: Hetzner banned me with no explanation. What can I do?    · Posted by u/ngalstyan4

There must be more to the story...

If true, I'd check all configured email addresses. They let you configure different addresses for support/bills etc. and will send warnings only to certain addresses.

Hetzner is usually good at revolving issues.

If you don't pay a bill, they eventually will block incoming traffic from the web. They are still reachable from inside hetzner network and they will unblock traffic as soon it's paid.

If the BSI finds Ports that shouldn't be open to the public, they will forward the mail to you and won't take actions.

If you disturb their network due to misconfiguration, they will block you, demand an explanation within 24 or 48 hours and unblock you, if they find it plausible.

If you call them with technical issues - in my experience - you typically want to prepare logs, traceroutes etc. because they will know enough to provide guidance on how to resolve it.

After long search, I can add 2 additional alternatives:

- https://raindrop.io - online, free& paid. Good if no much metadata is needed. Raw data is not really accesseble

- https://en.eagle.cool/ - I LOVE it. Paid and local only. But Cross-Plattform and Dropbox sync available. Astonishing metadata management for all types of media. Automatically saves source url when browser-plugin is used.
