Not to be that guy but sounds like a vulnerability waiting to happen
Great! Thanks!
Why are these solutions always using NFS? I'm asking out of curiosity, not judgement.

I've looked for a solution to write many small files fast (safely). Think about cloning thr Linux kernel git repo. Whatever I tested, the NFS protocol was always a bottleneck.

I couldn't sign up even
Re:Show HN: Let Grumpy AI Roast Your Startup Idea on Sunday June 30, 2024 @05:48AM (#40836142)
Idea: An AI site that fronts as a "let me roast your idea" kind of thing, but really it collects good startup ideas

Roast: Oh, great! An AI that doubles as both a roast master and a covert corporate spy. Because nothing screams innovation like tricking people into giving you free startup ideas while they think they're being witty. What's next, an AI that writes breakup texts and then sells relationship advice to the dumped?

Pros: Can potentially gather a lot of unique and diverse startup ideas. Entertaining for users who enjoy roasts and humor. Low overhead costs, AI can handle large volumes of input. Cons: Ethically questionable - users are unaware their ideas are being collected. Trust issues - once users find out the real purpose, they'll likely avoid the service, and brand reputation will tank. Limited longevity - novelty wears off quickly, and there's a finite amount of genuinely good ideas out there. Alternative Idea: Create an AI-powered brainstorming platform where users openly and willingly share startup ideas. They can get feedback from the AI and other users, and maybe even earn rewards or recognition. Transparency is key; don't be sneaky if you want sustained engagement.

Re:ZX – A tool for writing better scripts on Saturday February 10, 2024 @02:27AM (#39324316)
I'm doing that with Ruby, and tgrought the years, it became also true for scripts that are fetching data, iterating over JSON objects, etc.
I thought about that also a week ago

> I like native tabs so that I can compartmentalize multiple tmux sessions. Alacritty with tabs would be perfect. Kitty seems to be that - but it’s got some oddities of it’s own.

Gotcha. I'm using tmux sessions for that.

Re:Contour: Modern and Fast Terminal Emulator on Sunday October 08, 2023 @09:05AM (#37810106)
I'm not trying to annoy, I swear. I am using Alacritty for a few years. With tmux config that is moving with me for +- 8 years, except for speed of a terminal emulator, I can't understand the difference between them (other than iTerm2 which is nice but has way too many features)
Re:Launch HN: Depot (YC W23) – Fast Docker Images in the Cloud on Wednesday February 22, 2023 @04:08PM (#34902764)
Congrats on the launch.

We've been using Depot for the past two months, and without changing anything the builds became faster (compared to our CI).

Good luck Depot team and keep up the good work!

Retool works great for us
Re:The medieval habit of ‘two sleeps’ on Wednesday January 12, 2022 @04:12AM (#29904059)
I'm doing this, but with a small modification: I've added a third sleep between the two sleeps
Please hurry and upload part two, as i'm about to finish every book in the first part.
