This seems fairly interesting. However I can’t find a link to the original 30 papers?

The link on the repo takes me to some site that wants me to “compile” papers for some reason.

Edit: nvm I found them hidden lower in the read me with a link to a different document.

I’m another happy customer. I use them to backup all of my wife’s work, and all of our personal files and pictures.

I recommend them to everyone who asks me about backups.

The utter simplicity of just having ssh and zfs as a service is killer! I can connect anything I want to it to back however I like.

And it just works.

In America, you basically need insurance to act as a larger stronger party in the negotiation of prices with the hospital on your behalf. Without the bargaining power of the insurance company the prices you'd pay can be significantly inflated. So paying for the insurance is the slightly lesser of two evils. Supposedly. From your question it seems perhaps you live somewhere with a saner system in place. I'm envious.

I’ve been told that too. But I’ve done self pay for the last year, and every time I go to the hospital they instantly give me a 30% discount.

That makes me think they are artificially inflating prices so that when the insurance company negotiats their discount, well, it might be the same as what I pay

The front ones seem easy enough, the rear ones are a lot harder

whoa.

How is that even allowed?

> Here’s the thing, if your core business function depends on some capability, you should own it if at all possible.

If I'm building something that allows my customers to do X, then yes I will own the software that allows my customers to do X. Makes sense.

> They’ll craft artisanal monitoring solutions while their actual business logic—the thing customers pay for—runs on someone else’s computer.

So instead I should build an artisanal hosting solution on my own hardware that I purchase and maintain? I could drop proxmox on them and go from there, or K8s, or even just bare metal and systemd scripts.

But my business isn't about any of those things, its about X. How does owning and running my own hardware get me closer to delivering on X?

It's more the other two dimensions that I want shrunk. Did anyone think their phone was too thick to fit in their pocket?
dan353hehe · 6 months ago
No kidding. I just want one that I can use one handed again. I’m on the IPhone SE, have hands that can play an octave + 2 additional keys on a piano, and I can’t reach the whole screen with a single hand.

I’m probably just holding it wrong.

Well, there goes my week.

I have a hard time getting into games anymore, but hollow knight was one that actually kept my attention enough to finish. Super great game!

Lit maintainer here. I should be going to bed, but I'll answer any questions if people have any!

Not sure why Lit showed up on the front page tonight :)

I am not the one who submitted it. But someone mentioned it last night:

I assume someone else looked it up and liked it enough to submit it.

The page does say it, though it might be easy to overlook if you don't understand the significance of the statements:

> Zero setup

> Direct to gameplay

> Distraction-free gaming

> Use SD cards or other external media as carts

The 90s gaming console experience was:

1. Grab your game cartridge.

2. Insert cartridge into console.

3. Turn on console.

4. Play the game.

There are no steps between 3 and 4. The console booted directly into the game. It was fast and there was no messing with multimedia experience stuff (like Xbox or PS later introduced).

I have no experience with Kazeta but this is what I would expect from its homepage.

Fixed it.

Honestly though, the experience of just turning it on and being in game was great. I had access to an NES and an SNES growing up and have a lot of great memories playing games with friends.
