> Tell us your hopes and dreams for a Cloudflare-wide CLI

No long lived tokens, or at least a very straightforward configuration to avoid them.

One option: an easy tool to make narrowly scoped, very short lived tokens, in a file, and maybe even a way to live-update the file (so you can bind mount it).

Another option: a proxy mode that can narrow the scope. So I set it up on a host, then if I want to give a container access to one domain or one bucket or whatever, I ask the host CLI to become a proxy that gives the relevant subset of its permissions to the proxied client, and I connect the container to it.


> Compute costs fall reliably, so what matters is the capability at a given price point in 18 months, not today.

The underlying point still stands "more compute" as the default answer is not sustainable ?

Why ?

Because even if we accept the unlikely dream that GPU prives will take a nose-dive, you still need somewhere to put all those servers stuffed with GPUs.

That means datacentres.

And "more datacentres" is absolutely not sustainable.

The cooling needs, the power needs, the land needs..... none of it is sustainable.


I wouldn't characterize Apple's AI strategy as "smart". "Accidental" is a perfect descriptor here. "Apple Intelligence" and "Liquid Glass" show they are asleep at the wheel. I wrote an email to Tim last year imploring him to leverage Apple Silicon and its unified memory for private AI. I didn't tell him that I had dumped 95% of my Apple shares.

I have tried many times to migrate to Obsidian and DataView from OrgMode, but I just can't get there.

Obsidian is appealing because it's available on iOS, but the whole approach ended up (for me) being more fiddly and less effective (again for me) than orgmode.

OTOH & to be fair, I've been using Org for a really long time.


Perhaps we could replace all CEOs with AI.

I was just trying to explain the confusion of the original response, I'm not interested in the topic. They originally said "it's illegal for a company to verify someone's age", but their follow up post was "it's illegal for the government to force companies to verify age"

Sounds like an ultimately good thing to me. It was an interesting experiment, but the negatives largely outweigh the positives at this point.

(I do realize the irony of writing this on HN, but I digress)


Really cool stuff, but I really don't understand the dynasties viz. For example, Kunti somehow has her sons to the left of, right of, and above her, making the relationship unclear.

> React happily also has 0 dependencies,

Ok, but it has 112 devDependencies, I'm not really sure "0 dependencies" best describes React.


I switched from Windows to Linux because I got a Steam Deck, which caused me to realize that the only games in my library that don't also run flawlessly on Linux are the ones that have invasive anticheat that I'm really not comfortable installing.

Having to enable TPM or device integrity or whatever it is on my own computer just to run my own games is just too much power to hand to some garbage corporation that shits on its users. Rubbed me so far the wrong that way that I gave it up. The fact that Win 11 is no longer just an easy and hands-off solution that "just works" but is bloated with dark patterns and "AI" bullshit certainly helped cement the decision.



Why compile code when ccache faster

Wow that's news to me. How does polymarket make money if not from fees?

I think it's a great idea. I have been a gamer for the last 20+ years, and I work on Mac for development. I do love some of the old taskbar-style view that I get on Windows. Great product... Are you thinking of also making a Windows 11 version of it? I would actually love that to have consistently also if we can make the hotkeys pretty much the same.

Zion backcountry isnt in the canyon though. Its nice, but not nearly as scenic as the canyon. If you want the canyon experience theres no way to get it without the crowds.

Bad take. Each of these offered novel user experience improvements at launch. Yes they leveraged ecosystem (and yes I agree ecosystem lock-in does move devices) but thats also exactly what unlocked the better UX.

In your other thread you mentioned people don't necessarily want iPhones but they buy them to not be excluded from iMessage. I think you vastly underestimate how much regular people want low-bullshit tech experiences and are willing to pay for that.


The EU survives for as long as it makes financial sense.

Hungary never exited because they're a poverty stricken nation suffering brain drain.


One component is to stop building tools that exploit impressionable minds.

Before the plague shut down the place I got my larger bottle refilled, I got a mid-size standard CO2 to SodaStream adapter from Ali Express. Saved me a fortune hooked up direct to the SodaStream, especially as sparkling water was intermittently surprisingly difficult to get hold of during those times. I should contact the gas supplier, see where the nearest point is now.

The market aligned us with children working in sweat shops after we outlawed it by convincing us it was OK if it was foreign kids and we got to share in pocketing the savings not just the evil factory owner.

Sure, if you never have to collaborate on them with anyone else.

Microsoft has jumped onto the Friedman doctrine with full force. [0] Following this doctrine takes you down only one path, Enshitification.

All the major Wall Street players are doing it too; Nestle with removing real chocolate in their chocolate candy, McDonald's now costing the same as a sit down with lower quality product, car industry rejecting affordable vehicles for production. [1] [3]

The only end users Microsoft concern themselves with are the _Share Holders_. They reject the developers, maintainers, and consumers as their focal user groups. This is how you get shit-ware and people leaving your platform.

My major goal this year is to get our solutions running on Linux so we can fully ditch the trash fire that Windows IoT / Embedded has become. It originally was fully customizable now it is bloated with Copilot, XBox gaming, and working to force the creation of @Microsoft.com accounts versus local ones.

I support local restaurants and businesses. While Wall Street companies are last in line to receive my income, if at all. I will not spend a penny personally financially supporting large players like McDonald's, Microsoft, Pepsi, Coca-Cola, ...

Please read David Graeber.

What you describe is factually not how human society formed.


The first time I got into Emacs and vim I also spent way too much time on the editor customization spiral. Then in 2015 I just picked and settled on Spacemacs while strictly limiting how much I spend time on customizing my editor. I’ve had three jobs since then and I use basically the same editor config in all three jobs.

> Major school's CS grads are finding jobs upon graduation at an 11% rate

That number makes me very skeptical, even in 2026. Maybe what you are saying is that the unemployment figure is 11%? That would be pretty bad compared to two years ago, but within the realm of plausible if we were seeing a major upset in the employment market.

E.g. 2024 data: https://www.newyorkfed.org/research/college-labor-market#--:...


Frankly, as an asthmatic I'd be 100% onboard with everything. There are plenty of scent free deodorants that work just fine, btw.

> Zig 0.16.0 is tagged. Release notes are just about completed and will be published in about 20 hours when the tarballs finish building. As it turns out, it takes a while to build LLVM 27 times on one computer! That's how many different targets we provide compiler binaries for now - all cross compiled from one host.


Yeah, I used to respect him as a tech blogger, but you can't wash that crypto stink off once it gets on you.

Some things always happen too. You need to avoid certain terms.
