On: Why not use DNS over HTTPS (DoH)?

[finalhacker]

DOH is a protection for your privacy from ISP. Actually you can set multi DOH server with load balance to avoid your dns info concentrately collected by one dns provider.

On: The hidden cost of AI coding

[finalhacker]

When I coding, most of time was used to search docs over internet. My first language is not english, search over hundrud of pages is quiet slow.

AI help me a lot, you don't need search, just ask AI, and it provide the answer directly. After using AI, I have more time used on coding, more fun.

I am mostly pretty underwhelmed with LLMs' code, but this is a use-case that makes perfect sense to me, and seems like a net-positive: using them as a reference manual/ translator/ training aid.

I just wish I saw more people doing this, rather than asking them to 'draw 80% of the owl'.

On: Show HN: My from-scratch OS kernel that runs DOOM

[finalhacker]

Cool! Does OS kernel related to CPU model? Can I boot this kernel in KVM?

[UnmappedStack → finalhacker]

Yep! Works with KVM fine (at least for me).

cannot open this page

On: S3 is files, but not a filesystem

[finalhacker]

S3 not implementate vfs api, but you can treat it as a software defined storage filesystem. Just like Ceph.

there are so many applications depends on file storage, such as Mysql. But horizontal scale for those app still difficult in many case. Replace from vfs api to s3 storage perhaps is trending in my experience.

On: A URL Lengthener

[finalhacker]

Looks great. But I don't known any scenes we need to use this function.
