There are some unconfirmed rumors going that the maximum password length for the API was 8 characters...


Privatization

It was run by DXC Technology, the Danish branch of a US software house.

When doing a contract on such programs the Danish government must take the cheapest offer by rule


What could go wrong? /S


When you change your address you can click a checkbox saying you want a protected name/address. This means that companies that have you as customers/clients won't be able to get the new address, mail won't be redirected, etc

I did it accidentally during my last move and it was a pain in the behind

And it expires after a year by default so it feels rather pointless


If you own a danish domain name (.dk), unless you have protected address, all your info is a whois lookup away. Example lookup of ft.dk (danish folketing).

This is why I've never posted anything from my own shitty website here. All of this is available from [myname].dk with my info on it. Also it's horrifying that our government is restricting access to its website behind fucking CloudFlare.

EDIT: I didn't redact anything from the lookup, this is the exact data I received.


Altman at it again?


More moving parts would mean a much more complex system which would heighten maintenance cost and likely lower successful interceptions per working system significantly.

I'm sure the Ukrainians can draw two curves and see where they intercept


I guess it's the only con that will take money to have DHH give a keynote about some sycophantic BS


Stability and sanity is not happening whether the conflicts stop in Yemen+Hormuz or not. At that point it's just going to go back to tarriff wars and new terror campaigns that the US admin will start somewhere else


The context of this is which party China would prefer to win the midterms. The dems winning would distract Trump from being able to fuck up the rest of the world a bit.

My bet would be that China doesn't care much either way, they win regardless.


We agree that China won't care long term. They cannot lose in the current setup

In my view the worst that can happen for China is that Trump gets limited by anything. He's hurting US relations more than he's hurting China short or long-term. Relations take longer to build than trade

"Don't interrupt your opponent when they're making a mistake"


> "Don't interrupt your opponent when they're making a mistake"

Yeah, that's the obvious answer, but I suspect there's a point where if the US fucks things up too quickly and too messily, there's fewer customers for China's crap and/or the random throws of monkey shit drag China into messes they don't feel like dealing with.

Slow erosion of the US's global power is likely better for them than an implosion that might cause collatoral damage.


I'm curious what you think that may be.

The situation you're imagining is one of a global all encompassing depression caused by a single government.

Not unthinkable, but the Americans would feel that deeply. Do you think they want to?


> The situation you're imagining is one of a global all encompassing depression caused by a single government.

Doesn't even have to go that far (though it pretty easily can, the US is a big enough market). If the US causes a refugee crisis that affects one of China's allies, or fucks with the global oil supply enough or a thousand other things, that stuff is still annoying to China even if it's usually relatively better for them than it is for the US.

> Not unthinkable, but the Americans would feel that deeply. Do you think they want to?

The people in the US choosing do not care if the rest of America feels it or not.


Germans didn't want Stalingrad yet it happened.


It uses Direct2D which most of the post is about.

They added the support by slopping a Direct2D emulation layer together.


Neat idea in its core but its still tailscale underneath

The only thing that convinces me that tailscale isn't a CIA op is how badly it works for real uses
