No one read them so a single version is more than enough

We read through the release notes for our server software before installing it so that we can warn users about new functionality, disable functionality that's not approved, etc.

This!

Are you noticing any contraction (or increase) of immigration?

Early on in this administration, yes, but now, it seems as busy as ever although this latest suspension of immigration processes for those from 19 countries has definitely sent a chill.

Were those 19 countries a significant source of work in the system?

I made recently an open source alternative to minio Server & minio UI also in Rust:

Probably just me but I would stay away from anything saying vibecoder in the repo

Interesting. I totally stopped using opus on my max subscription because it was eating 40% of my week quota in less than 2h


Paying for fonts is something I will never understand, I have a perfect vision but I'm nearly blind to fonts it makes nearly no difference to me (except for windings)


Wingdings isn't really a "font" in the same way that Times New Roman is a "font". Wingdings and and Webdings were basically proto-emojis, a vestige of the old "dingbats" publishers would put at the top of chapter pages to make them look nice.

Lucky for you the article makes it clearly understandable.


Wines!


Cloudflare fully down for me and my team, half of internet just vanished


Same we use cloudflare as image cdn and its R2 service a lot, cant access anything over its cdn route


Too little, too late. Desktop apps are mostly dead.


Not in the industry I work in - AAA gamedev. Art folks typically would have two, or even three monitors - so good solutions for docking across them (and still working) are required.

A chrome browser by itself can't work that - it's great for many things, but not for Creative Tools.


MAUI is first and foremost a mobile UI framework. It was built for iOS and Android. The desktop is added on as a bonus so that you can target macOS and Windows as well.

If you are building a Windows desktop application though, Microsoft does not want you to use MAUI. You use MAUI because iOS and Android are your top platforms and you want to target macOS and Windows without writing dedicated applications.

Linux has always been missing. This Avalonia port fills that gap.

You would not target the web with MAUI either. I guess "you can" now because WASM is one of the platforms that Avalonia supports. Again, I guess you might if you already have a MAUI app and do not want to create one for the web. But you would never set out to create a MAUI app for the web.


Desktop UI toolkits are dead or stagnant but the desktop ui is still king IMO


I would much rather see web apps become canvas rendered WASM versions of desktop apps than desktop apps become webview apps. Latter is what we have been seeing in the recent years unfortunately.

Canvas rendered cross-platform UI frameworks like Flutter & Avalonia targeting browsers (WASM), might shift the balance back in favor of desktop UI.


That's why desktop machines and monitors can't be given away. Nobody wants them /s


We've helped quite a few teams move from AWS to Hetzner (and Netcup) lately, and I think the biggest surprise for people isn't the cost or the raw performance, it’s how simple things become when you remove 15 layers of managed abstractions.

You stop worrying about S3 vs EFS vs FSx, or Lambda cold starts, or EBS burst credits. You just deploy a Docker stacks on a fast NVMe box and it flies. The trade-off is you need a bit more DevOps discipline: monitoring, backups, patching, etc. But that's the kind of stuff that's easy to automate and doesn't really change week to week.

At Elestio we leaned into that simplicity, we provide fully managed open-source stacks for nearly 400 software and also cover CI/CD (from Git push to production) on any provider, including Hetzner.

More info here if you're curious: https://elest.io

(Disclosure: I work at Elestio, where we run managed open-source services on any cloud provider including your own infra.)


Would like to know more about your postgres offering: does it offer streaming replicas and streaming backup? Or just dump stored to s3?


Yes we offer clusters with auto failover and replicas can be in multiple regions and even in multiple providers.

We support postgres but also MySQL, redis, opensearch, Clickhouse and many more.

About backups we offer differential snapshots and regular dumps that you can send to your own S3 bucket

Webfuse is the product secretly advertised in that iframe tester. It seems to be a solution to proxy and manipulate iframes
