Sounds like a good way to separate oneself from a disgusting, greed-driven, and fake environment. Not to mention that for-profit education institutions have zero interest in your skill set—it's your money they want, not your success. I would probably enjoy studying CS in Norway, though.

Anything here now seems like a waste of time, to be honest. And its not like I really care about these internet points (too oldschool maybe).
Re: on Saturday September 28, 2024 @04:03PM (#41682624)
I could not care less how it “looks”. I never promoted any of my work, regardless of its field, quality or scale—my OCD tells me that good work needs no promotion. But some people started to tell me that this approach might not be very healthy, especially in modern days with the amount of trash being generated every millisecond. So I started to _share_ it with other humans.

Zola is great! Easy to configure, simple workflow, and great docs.

> I found that if you scan your site for CSP headers, none of them shows up

Some scanners ignore them in the meta tag, looking only at HTTP headers (just like some browsers). I thought Netlify would merge meta CSP into an HTTP header, but it seems like this is not the case.

Not sure where Zola can fit dynamic CSP mechanics, but there might be a solution one day: https://www.netlify.com/blog/general-availability-content-se.... I might have figured out how to deploy Cactus with a strict CSP. It can't find the room even when I deploy following the official guide. It's on the `comments` branch if you want to test my approach https://github.com/charlesrocket/halve-z.

Mandatory sections are probably for the asset colocation https://www.getzola.org/documentation/content/overview/#asse.... It's actually pretty handy; it makes the directory structure cleaner, and asset access is more direct within post pages.

Thank you! Cactus system looks neat, and there should be no issues with strict CSP. I will try to implement it as well.

There is also another interesting approach via emails https://spenc.es/writing/email-as-a-commenting-system/#how-r....

Show HN: FreeBSD Manager for Desktops (Via Ansible)

https://github.com/charlesrocket/freebsd-collection

I started working on the original playbook some time ago when needed to change my daily OS. Recently, I decided to convert it into a collection so I could replace source pulls and awkward templating with a simple one-liner solution. The result is `freebsd-collection`. Altho not exactly a one-liner since one needs to adjust user settings for sudo/doas before the execution, it feels like a...

To be fair, artists share lyrics, since everything else can be easily scanned by ear. Negatives are frequently the only source. You do not need any negatives to recreate a photograph. Just like you do not need masters or sketches to recreate a song or a popular paining. Most modern photographs are not even produced by photographers - the camera would do all the work, your job is to pick one frame from 9528 you took while your finger got stuck on a button. Moving code somewhere else or omitting the source would not bring back dead ethics of greed-driven modern society and definitely can not slow down reversing in any way.
Some v1 units got defective RTCs so one would have to frequently sync with ntp. My version had around 2 weeks of battery life (no ntp/etc). I can see getting way beyond that with accel and on-demand refresh instead of 1min intervals.
Had enough of linux.

The lottery that is based on non-existing concept like gambling where all the fees piped to one party? Not to mention you can’t use your brain while “playing” since calculating winning locations is illegal. Also it sound like you missing the whole point why all these hashes are discarded and what is being produced at the end of each cycle.
