  Cannot resolve DNS from a WireGuard VPN peer

  As I am continuing to set up a WireGuard VPN link to a remote location, I managed to get the link to work from the peer's address to the instance's LAN, after my previous question re the same.

  Ask HN: Framework to Manage Firecracker?

  I've been using Firecraker lately and it's really good to manage microVMs. What I still haven't found though is a proper daemon/framework that wraps Firecracker and provides an easy to use API to start/stop microVMs, keep their filesystem backed up and expose their HTTP endpoint to the public.

I once joined their Discord, waited for the drop, and it all sold out in seconds. I haven't had enough time to put my card details. Somebody recom

  Database front-end/layout that supports list view with 2 (or more) lines per entry

  For context, I play guitar at folk clubs and at camps. I've got a pretty large repertoire, and often the problem is "knowing what you know", which means some kind of list.

Has anyone migrated from 1Password recently to another tool/platform? Have you had a good experience with any tools in particular? Any ad

  Database table view with two (or more) lines per entry

  Context: I play folk guitar, and up to about 2010 I had a pretty good repertoire - something like 200 songs I could play from memory at the drop of a hat - and I've just returned to playing more seriously again. The problem with a large repertoire is remembering what you can remember, plus the etern

  What is your AI era PowerPoint alternative?

  AI has pros and cons for sure, one area I was hoping for it to shine is slide deck authoring. Perhaps I am looking in the wrong direction, but I haven’t found an AI driven workflow that hits the spot yet. Please share your recommendations… My needs are (i) text editing (md would be best), (ii) diagr

  Ask HN: Why Doesn't an OSS Developer Union Exist?

  I would like to open the floor for discussion. I personally want an OSS Union for situations in which trillion dollar megacorps attempt to bully OSS interop project maintainers and give them trauma over C&Ds which they get almost no support for. I would pay at least $20 per month to be part of this
