Wait. You use github pages for something or actually work on it?


I use it for something.

I had a github page that was public, but it was made private and the DNS config was removed. Fast forward to today. I made the private repo public again and forced a deploy of the page without making a new commit. It said the DNS config was incomplete, so I tweaked it and hit "check again" and github went down.

Probably unrelated, but the timing was spooky.


Sorry for the offtopicness - would you mind emailing hn@ycombinator.com so I can check in with you about a couple things regarding https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41221186?


Your domain isn't `null.example.com` or something, is it?



Comments moved thither. Thanks!

Nothing todo with marijuana, it’s just Vitamin E, which makes it easier to produce vape liquids


It has to do with marijuana.

According to the Missouri health department, marijuana products without added Vitamin E were failing the safety test because they contained naturally occurring Vitamin E.

So specifically for marijuana products they increased the allowable amount.

I don't really understand why they decided this though. Their reasoning suggests that they think natural occurring poison is less harmful than added poison ?


I initially posted a wrong comment, but after a more careful re-reading, I think their argument is Vitamin E Acetate is bad. But Vitamin E (non-acetate) is fine. Now, I don't know whether that's true or not.

> It was determined that raising the VEA [Vitamin E Acetate] action limit to 5ppm (0.0005% by weight) accounts for any naturally occurring vitamin E, which has not been identified as a health and safety concern upon inhalation and prevents false failures for VEA screening


MacOS seems to be fine (or I was too late to get an update)


MacOS does not allow kernel extensions anymore luckily

Sounds way too fishy.

Shopify also had issues


Google definitely collects more data, but TikTok’s data goes directly to China Government. Does same happen with Google? Maybe. However, in case of both of them doing that, from my perspective unfriendly/enemy country collecting that data is worse .


Is your data potentially going to a foreign government not known for extraterroritorial judicial overreach worse than your data going to your local government for longterm storage and profiling?


That’s Donbass Devushka, 100% likely paid by kremlin


accepts header can be used to optimize here. If client supports webp or afiv - send those. If they don’t - png/jpg
