You might as well ask why knives are sharp enough to cut you, why hammers are heavy and blunt enough to destroy things, or why guns fire bullets so quickly that you can't react to them. These "behaviors" are not strange side

I get that a lot of people are financially dependent on the ecosystem that is Wordpress. But it's a crappy piece of technology that needs overhauling. Is there any modern project designed to replace it with better code/architectur

My point is, you will always have to check the work, no matter who makes it or how. If you can't check it, then don't rely on it. If you can check it, then do rely on it. Basic due diligence. I don't get what the controversy

Proof that you should never launch an unlimited anything. Calculate the costs and set explicit limits at initial launch. Otherwise people will freak out that you're taking things away from them when you later need to charge for increas

There are a whole lot of people out there who use Miro for all of their documentation, planning, troubleshooting, etc, in multiple roles. It's a primary tool for many people, like a word processor/sheets/slides on steroids.

Strange that they claim Lee pioneered Anycast usage. Anycast was created when Lee was 2 years old. Afaik, CacheFly was the first big CDN to make Anycast edge networks back in 2002, along with EdgeCast in 2006, then Microsoft, Limelight, etc

Don't say that too loudly.. People will think you're encouraging use of AI in researching and writing articles, which is apparently a mortal sin. Certain people here would rather read a nonsense post by a human than a logical post
