With your logic we should stop using highways because Hitler built some of them. Try to take step back and see past the trees. In a perfect world encrypted and secure compute and storage would be freely available on-demand.

Will that world ever exist? Probably not due to human nature. Still an interesting thought, even if Altman wants to control said compute or not.

Just to be super clear so you understand my comment: I do NOT agree that Altman should have any control over compute and storage. And neither should it be the only way to use compute and storage.

If you ask I'm sure they'll let you install Debian on it.

Ubuntu is based of Debian testing. You can verify this by comparing the versions of neovim available on the repos.

Debian[1]:

> trixie (stable) (editors): heavily refactored vim fork

> 0.10.4-8: amd64 arm64 armel armhf i386 ppc64el riscv64 s390x

> forky (testing) (editors): heavily refactored vim fork

Ubuntu[2]:

> stonking (26.10) (editors): heavily refactored vim fork [universe]

> 0.12.4-1: amd64 arm64 armhf ppc64el riscv64 s390x

I use Debian stable myself and build neovim from source for this specific reason.

> and I considered it the solid, no-drama LTS distro. Fuck that now.

There's been lots of drama on Ubuntu which OP either completely missed or ignored. Ubuntu has been getting worse for over a decade now.

The few people willing to change their user-agent aren't worth the extra complexity.

It's the takeaway from the story in OP and the poem with the same title, so I'd say it's very much on-topic. Your only contribution is "acktually, humans are nature too and once the universe collapses everything is doomed" and shut down any other discussion as "silly".

Of course there's reason to discuss if endless parking lots and industrial complexes are necessary. Claiming they're part of nature is like claiming HIV is a natural part of the human body. It exists yes but maybe we're better off without it?

I see humanity as it exists today as a cancer on the planet and it's not out of smugness. The pursuit of infinite growth is ruining everything that's beautiful around us.

We can discuss the semantics of the word nature all you want but it is just shifting the focus from the actual problem, which is how we destroy everything we touch. Which is also what I'm assuming GP means.

> - .env is the simplest and oldest / most boring solution. Secrets are passed to teammates by DM?

I don't see a reason to ever pass them. Sensitive production values should never be accessible to everyone, and for development the team should be able to create them themselves.

I usually keep very stupid values in .env.example, with the instructions to `cp .env.example .env`. In development it doesn't matter if the password is "password". In production the privileged admin sets up actual values.

> - non-sensitive environment variables also need a home. I don't like the idea of cluttering the project with a .env.local or worse like .env.development.local

`cp .env.example .env` and the application uses .env just like in production, only with dummy values.

I don't really understand what point you're trying to make. Yes the planet is doomed sooner or later. But I'm talking about nature as in trees, animals, etc. The natural eco-system. And it existed and evolved and adapted naturally long before humans and will continue long after we're gone.

In philosophy there is a debate regarding the meaning of the word nature and if humans should be considered a part of it, and I see the points, but that's a different discussion.

The world has been much more inhospitable than it is today and I'm sure it will recover. The problem I see with us is how we destroy everything in our path on an industrial scale. As long as the wheels keep spinning we extract everything we can, see water use for data centers as the latest example.

Other species co-exist in the eco-system, we destroy it.

"Humanity" is far from "all the life on Earth". Nature will be better off once it happens.

There will be ways to circumvent and even use verified devices as botnets.

What do you use instead and what makes it more secure?

Great for apps, terrible for people. It's much simpler to sync setups across machines with plain files than databases.

I'm not OP but probably the licensing drama. Gitea is now open core if I remember correctly. Some details are available here[1]. I also used to run Gitea, but I don't any more. The open-source churn is getting tedious and difficult to keep up with.

How portable do you need it to be? I use pass[1] and it is good. Just a shell script wrapper to gpg and the passwords are encrypted files you can backup and sync anyway you want.

There are more secure alternatives. Are you sure those you listed actually use it on the servers? I would guess that at least Spotify and Netflix uses some other container runtime than Docker on their production servers.

For a long time Docker was helpful and opened exposed ports on the firewall. So you wanted to access your redis ports locally and exposed it on the container? Now everything in there is accessible on the open internet.

I believe they've fixed it but I haven't used Docker in years so I wouldn't know.

I think plugins is the better solution, then you can't pay the browser to get your ads through.

Cool project, but they should really upgrade at least the downloads to https...

This would break so many websites. There are valid uses for the history API, I often do modals/popups as shareable URLs, and using the back button closes it.

There's a (very) big difference between reading weekly and reading a book in the past 12 months. I used to read a book or two in the past 12 months, back then it was on vacation to have something to do while lounging on the beach. Today I read a book every month and it's something I do instead of watching TV. I would not call my younger self a reader.

Interesting choice to change the time of the comment, a deja-vu can be weird enough without staring at a comment with a recent timestamp.

Didn't know about this project, looks useful. Thanks for bringing it to my attention, FAKKU.

> Why even use else if with return...

What is the problem with that? How would you write that snippet? It is common in the new functional js landscape, even if it is pass-by-ref.

They are amazing tools, but when people try to give them agency someone has to explain it in simple terms.

It doesn't try to do anything. It doesn't work like that. It regurgitates the most likely tokens found in the training set.

Hey! How can I make this about LLMs?

(Many countries' laws are already available online and included in the dataset they're trained on. The project is very cool for humans though.)

> Those are opt-out. The entire discussion is about opt-in.

Depends on your perspective, to me you have them flipped, and enabling them is "opt-in", i.e: "now I would like to see the hidden files please".

But I don't think I misunderstood you. You're telling me I should prefer hidden files to be the default, and I disagree and give my arguments. It's not more complicated than that.

To me rg only follows the same principle as the rest of my tools, fd requires `-H/--hidden`, ls `-a` or `-A` and so on. It is a big reason to why I prefer rg and fd over grep and find. Which brings us back to your first comment:

>> You started using it because it had that capability I imagine, not because it is the default.

And if you set `set editing-mode vi` in ~/.inputrc (readline configuration) you'll have it in even more places.

What is it like to be this proud of not learning the tools you use? Do you really think several paragraphs to an agent that may or may not be correct is the "easy" way compared to just checking the manual for the flag you want?

I will never understand people like you.
