Cutest cat ever

For a solo dev, what are the advantages of _not_ building on your own machine?

Is the compiling and test running too resource intensive?

Do you build every commit? If so, why?

I see the value in larger teams, but for solo stuff I just find it slow and annoying. I'm using go, and it compiles fast, so that could be a part of it.

I end up with all kinds of random crap on my own machine. It's very easy to accidentally e.g. globally install a library that wasn't properly listed in my dependency management. So having a separate standardised/controlled build environment is a good way to catch those. It also helps with flaky tests or random "works on my machine" problems - this way my tests are at least getting run on two quite different machines (different OS/arch/etc.)

Probably more accurate? :

"Earlier this year, we admitted we have no idea what to do with VR or Horizon. We’re splitting them up because they’re both failing in different ways, and we’re turning Horizon Worlds into just another shitty mobile app. This mess is going to break everything, including the app on your phone. To "streamline" things—which is code for cutting costs—here is everything we’re taking away from you through 2026.

• Meta Horizon Worlds:

By March 31, 2026, we’re pulling Horizon Worlds and Events from the Quest Store. We’re also killing off Horizon Central, Events Arena, Kaiju, and Bobber Bay in VR. You can play your other favorite VR worlds until June 15, 2026, but after that, we’re deleting the app from Quest entirely. If you still want to use it, you’ll have to stare at a tiny phone screen like everyone else.

• Meta Horizon Hyperscape Capture (Beta):

By March 24, 2026, you can’t watch Hyperscape captures in Horizon Worlds anymore. They’re stuck in some beta app in your library that nobody uses. You can still record stuff, but you’ll be doing it alone because we’re killing the social features.

• Meta Horizon Plus (MH+) Perks:

By March 31, 2026, we’re stripping the Horizon-specific crap—like Meta Credits and digital clothes—out of your subscription. We’re charging you the same price for less stuff, but hey, you still get the monthly games.

We’re still spending money trying to make the Quest suck less—we added a keyboard and let you move windows around, and we’re forcing a new interface on you whether you want it or not."

To be honest, I find it hard to believe this is common. They have been around for ages and are quite beloved by many. Maybe something went wrong in this case?

Guess I will find out, think my cc expires soon.

Also, you can pay by bank transfer, at least for dedicated.

> To be honest, I find it hard to believe this is common.

I agree. But it still happened, with literally no warning (I actually checked), and their support staff refused to even call me to get updated card details when I was in the middle of an actual cyclone. ie phone service worked, internet didn't

Directly impacting our customers, who were extremely unhappy (to say the least).

"Fuck Hetzner!" is not nearly strong enough to convey the sentiment.

I mean, the context here is that a company stopped providing services after a bank cancelled a credit card they had been charging.

For all they know, your legitimate charges were the fraudulent charges that triggered the cancellation.

I cannot fathom why you keep using the term "expired" when that is a very different scenario to "cancelled by the issuing bank".

> For all they know, your legitimate charges were the fraudulent charges that triggered the cancellation.

Literally years of paying the bills. ;)

> I cannot fathom why you keep using the term "expired" when that is a very different scenario to "cancelled by the issuing bank".

That seems like a you problem. No worries, hope your day is going ok.

> That seems like a you problem.

I dunno man, it wasn't me having a breakdown in public because I forgot to update a biller after I cancelled my card.

really? like what? Maybe crypto mining?

I've gotten notices from Hetzner for hosting IPFS node, apparently it does some local network discovery by default which looks like a malware when you squint hard enough.

apparently too many outbound requests is enough to get on their radar

yeah, does not work for me either. Whatever I put in the DELETE input field, the button is still inactive,

Edit: Had to "submit a request".

So glad they let me request my account and data deleted, really grateful /s

Life is more than a paycheck. We should raise the bar a little IMO. Turning down money for good reasons is not something extreme we should only expect from saints.

Of course. Doesn't change the reality that this is why someone would accept a justification that a neutral would easily see as plainly dishonest. Anyway, this is why we need unions

> it isn't a moral stance so much as a pragmatic one

Agreed, the moral stance is saying no to DoJ and the US government

Reading comprehension check: I did not say that it reduced the risk of armed conflict. I said that it reduced the death and human suffering from armed conflict.

Between the years of 1850-1950, an estimated 150M humans died (and many more permanently disabled) due to armed conflict (~1.5M/year). Between 1950-today: closer to 10M (~132k/year). The majority of those came from the Vietnam and Korean wars. If you limit the window to after 2000: only ~2M deaths, or ~78k/year. We carry bigger sticks than ever, and those sticks allow us to execute more strategic, incapacitating strikes, or stop conflict from even happening in the first place.

It's a cliché, but you are forcing my hand: Correlation does not imply causation

> If you limit the window to after 2000: only ~2M deaths, or ~78k/year First, this can't be right? Just the Russian war against the Ukraine is more than that?

Also, let's do a recount in 2050
