I hope it does that, as I hope the same for USA.


simply staying on stable channel makes this a non-problem :)

Besides, Nix is even better for such breakages. If GCC breaks you packages, the system does not build and never gets into broken state, all the while old system remains available and kicking.


Hetzner charges extra for IPv4 address, as I believe most of them do. I know because I went through the same crap.


It seems more like a weird Hetzner thing that they won't give you a IPv4 NAT gateway.


They charge €0.50 per month to add an IPv4 address. A shared IPv4 NAT gateway introduces a whole lot of problems for them just to support customers who need IPv4 but don't want to pay a tiny amount for it.


How would a server-side NAT know which Hetzner customer it should route a request to? It has an encrypted packet arriving at this shared address on port 443. You can route a shared address to the proper service based on the HTTP Host header but that can only be done by the customer using their encryption key, so no sharing an address between customers. Home LAN NAT only works because the router can change the source port used by the request so that responses are unambiguously routed to the right client.


I don't think they're saying they should support incoming connections on such a NAT, I think they're saying that servers behind the NAT would be able to make outgoing connections (e.g. to access shared resources).


Well, the answer is easy. It doesn't do any forwarding, so a random 443 packet gets dropped.

It would be the same as with home NAT. Your device can create TCP connections outbound but can't listen/accept.

It would solve the problem of not being able to communicate to another IPv4 server but it prevents you from hosting your own.


The morons who want to replace developers with these so called tools already feel like developers need babysitting. Partly because they suck at giving requirements or sticking to them or both. It will be fun to see them finding out the devs do more that bashing code.


Yes.

I always licensed my projects under GPL variants. That contract was broken by LLM vendors. So now I'm taking my toys and going home.

All my new projects are hosted on Sourcehut. I trust Drew when he says they are not letting LLM bots have at it.

Its not just the dev either. I'm no longer posting any content on blogs. Almost all of my other online interactions have moved to private channels and closed forums. I'm no longer giving my work away for free, unless you've passed the entry tests.


I understand why people initially feel this way but the destruction of copyright is a realization of the end goal of the GPL, furthermore the way LLMs do it doesn't seem to impinge on the way it's used practically: preventing corporate administrators from mishandling source.

I wish pro-copy-left people could see this better. The future is brighter than you think.


LLMs did not destroy copyright. They inky destroyed copyright for the little guy. As I understand it, neither of the FAMANG have put their main codebase in training dataset. If I train an LLM on the leaked sources I'll get sued right down to my undies. But all the LLM vendors took my code, betrayed the license term about attribution/viral licensing of derived content, but I am told to get stuffed.

I am assuming you are commenting in good faith, but it does tingle my gaslight-senses.



Recently $DAYJOB has been moving more and more towards Office Space. But none of the young'ins are aware of it. So I just showed them the scene with the Bobs. Their faces were priceless. I doubt any of them came to office with same mindset again.



When I told them the movie came out before they were born, yet depict their life damn near exactly as they were living it, their enlightenment lit the room anew hah.

Someone please save my soul..


Mine certainly is. If my employees don't fill out their timesheets and tps reports how will I do payroll


A question I’ve always been afraid to ask: wouldn’t it be easier to do it yourself?


i hire people to do work i dont wanna


I don’t work for people I don’t wana


Bro, some of my employees don’t put the new covers on their TPS reports. Do you know how much we paid the consultant for the new designs?!


That's just a straight shooter with upper management written all over them


That's what I used to think too.. but Spec Ops: The Line is entirely based in desert, even has a shot of sarin horror and while 'pretty' isn't the word I'd use, it is stunning.


KDE has been lighter than GNOME for a few years now.. Their continuous iteration and polishing approach instead of break-the-world-and-remould-it-in-our-image approach from Gnome also shows up in any real-world use.


> LLMs are the first step in the movement away from (...) the logic based language

This dumb thing again.. The logic based language was and remains a major improvement [0] in being able to build abstractions because it allows the underlying implementations to be 'deterministic'. The natural language misses that mark by such a wide margin that it is impossible to explain in nicer language. And if one wants to make the argument that people achieve that anyway, perhaps you reading through one [1] will put that thought to rest :)

Very true, the whole point of logic and programming is that language is itself subjective and vague.

A deterministic program given the same inputs will always give the same outputs.

We can debate about what is cool, cold or freezing but a thermometer will present the same numeric value to everyone.


Anecdote, but at least for tiny little server hosting single public repository, none of these companies had 'well behaved' bots. It may be possible that they learned to behave better but I wouldn't know since my only possible recourse was to blacklist them all AND take the repo private.


Those are the small companies spoofing their user agent as the big companies to dodge countermeasures.
