How do people use let’s encrypt on a host that is not accessible from public Internet? Do they manually renew every three months through DNS challenge?

Good vibes, free things stand out. The direction of wind seems inverted. North wind is wind blowing from north to south. Also, when going into irons, the speed should drop to zero, or become negative given the sail configuration. And turns are impossible without speed.

Well played, Anthropic.

- AI labs give money to AI engineers to use the models.

Sorry for off topic, is the situation the same with Safari on MacOS? I have to touch-id every time I fill the password, so it seems like it’s not available in-memory.

That's called a product engineer, and I can see how this role is becoming more commonplace.

I've seen this point a lot on the web, how people compare AI to junior devs, and bring up the idea of replacement. This is, of course, a pipe dream. In fact, I work with a few people just from the college, and I see how AI helps them get up to speed faster. Even senior engineers benefit a lot from AI coding.
Their value to the company is not in how fast they can churn out new code, but in the deep domain understanding they build, and in the agency to drive the project they are responsible for.
As for the "destroyed steps behind me", I wouldn't take the same steps if I were starting my career now. My point was to actively seek and learn what's needed by the industry.

Spot on, even though I'm not from the US originally.
I changed three countries, chasing the job pool availability.
Although I can't say I'm looking down on people who figured out how to live fulfilling lives without a job.
I find this extremely fortunate.
As for me, when I'm not building software products at work, I do it at home in my spare time.
And one thing I noticed is that the job is a great amplifier of my efforts.
I don't think I can have the same success or even impact through my pet projects.
So, in a way, not being proactive and fully engaged at work is wasting time.
Not being lazy per se, even though that might be related.

This suggests a possible trend in which the separation between development and managerial roles becomes less meaningful.
We can have more product engineers who combine software expertise with domain knowledge to deliver complete solutions independently.
Similar to how people operate in startups, wearing many hats and making progress quickly and autonomously.

I hate how this is acceptable to make such claims about another country without providing any evidence. Same goes for Chinese or Russian hackers. It’s just whoever the US government is unhappy about.

I host my personal VM on Google Cloud Platform and access it mostly through SSH and HTTPS. As a hardening step, I've set up GCP firewall to only allow my home IP address.But my ISP changes my public IP pretty often, so I have to log in to the GCP console and change firewall rule there every time.I wrote a small Python script that automates this routine, and I thought maybe it could be useful to...
