  • The argument was “it happened before so it’s fine” which is an absurd argument, and I’m just pointing out the absurdity.

    “You don’t get a choice so it’s fine” is also an absurd argument. If someone kidnapped me, bound me up, and expressed their intention to cut off my hand, then I would worry about it even if I had no choice. If you’re telling me you wouldn’t be worrying in that situation, you’re a liar or incredibly abnormal. Lack of choice plays nearly no part in the degree of worry.

    What can help alleviate worry is knowledge, but here is a topic that is impossible to learn about.



  • I kinda agree, but mostly because western universities are being run like businesses first and educational institutions a distant second or third, and this is the inevitable outcome. Idk if other cultures have the same problem with their universities.

    It’s more lucrative to sell degrees as status symbols and career checkboxes, than to sell education. This changes both their target market demographics, and their funding priorities.











  • Pangolin is built on traefik, and does all the reverse proxying I need (X sub-domain goes to Y port on Z home server).

    I don’t really like the idea of n metroyska reverse proxis, both because conceptually it bothers me, but also because my needs seem simple and doesn’t seem like it deserves the extra complexity. The public resource reverse proxy works for everything I have.

    I’m looking for a way to configure pangolin, which already routes property, to skip auth when the auth can be provided by the pangolin client.
