Don't use protonmail you've been warned

Proton mail is probably the worst email service I've used even gmail is better in comparison.So as I woke up 2 days ago to a bunch of weird notifications on my phone of some cruchyroll signups I knew instantly it was some bored teenager trying their tool on me, not a big deal since any email provider worth their salt can just refuse traffic coming from that server and call it a day, right? Well...

I hope in the future we have more of flutter and flutter like frameworks and less of the web, it'd be a little more cost effective as it'd reduce server costs and it'd lessen the effect of cloud companies on climate change.

Ask HN: What Do Go HTTP routing libraries get wrong? And how can we fix it?

Hey HN,I'm working on developing a new HTTP router for Go, and I'm curious to hear from the community about what features you'd like to see added. Specifically, I'm interested in:1. Common Pain Points: What issues have you encountered with existing Go HTTP routers? Are there particular features or functionalities that you find lacking or problematic?2. Desired Features: What new features or...

The one thing that golang really needs is a templating library that doesn't suck, Html bindings in this language feel more like an after thought and this is coming from a person that really likes this language.

How is SQL bad? If anything my experience with KV db's is that most of the time they'll eventually end up implementing some form of structured data storage and retrieval that in some way resembles SQL. I love KV's only when I used them as embedded db's like pebble and badger db but you can never beat a good ol' SQL server that just does what you need from it nothing more nothing less. ORM's most of the time aren't that great either you always have to keep up with their new fancy API changes and instead of just doing your work you find yourself relearning the same ORM every few years, not only that but some ORM's are extremely sensitive in how you order your operations that the order in which you write you code can potentially kill your performance or worse accidentally deleting data.

Either a test environment or a mocking library

I would imagine emacs org mode probably has what you need
This is actually interesting, can it parse documentation from my code? Or comment? Or how is this exactly working?

I doubt everything in your comment but you do you.

That's not the issue I'm trying to point to it's how opinionated both are.
Re:Delphi VCL and FMX Libraries for Python on Sunday January 08, 2023 @03:26AM (#34297192)
Because I actually have five years experience in both and what you win in "time" in rad studio you lose in debugging because of how highly opinionated it is. an electron app as bloated as it is, is easier to maintain than this nonsense. Now imagine the unmaintainablity of delphi with whitespace hell of python... Yeah no thanks.
Re:Delphi VCL and FMX Libraries for Python on Sunday January 08, 2023 @02:51AM (#34297041)
As a person that hates to work with both delphi and python this sounds like hell. I dislike this so much that I'm willing to settle for java over this.
Re:Ask HN: Who is hiring? (January 2023) on Tuesday January 03, 2023 @02:39AM (#34228889)
Since the US and chinese markets strated struggling it seems that most companies now only want to hire seniors.
Why not block all ip's that don't belong to your isp since you're the only one who'd need to ssh to your server? There are some good sources out there to find out your ip range
Re:Ask HN: Host a website from a living room in 2022? on Tuesday December 20, 2022 @08:41AM (#34065715)
You could probably even host on an old phone if you really wanted to, at the end of the day it doesn't matter what you're hosting on but how you're managing assuming internet speed and hardware latency aren't an issue.
