If you've ever done an international wire, you know there's the form question "What intermediate bank to use". So at least the same if not less middlemen apply.

Everyone saying "muh GDPR" has no clue none of it applies to financial transactions. To get a PSD2 "Open Banking" license one needs to KYC every user and keep every transaction that passes through the system, for 5 years

That's assuming the return on investment is _always_ lower than the rate of deflation. Which is, nonsense.

But wait, central banking is itself a scam! It's the only entity that doesn't have to balance its books.

Not necessarily: nix the package manager runs fine on other distros, as well as FreeBSD, OSX, Windows, SmartOS, ... Nix doesn't need fancy filesystem shenanigans to do its job: build isolated packages with complete runtime dependencies

I've been busy hacking together a SmartOS zone wherein the nix package manager runs. My plan is to use disnix to configure SMF services on it.

Dutch people and government are obsessed with (limiting) speed, instead of focussing on keeping distance. A nice effect of distance is less braking, which means less energy converted into useless heat and less ghost traffic jams. It always

Your post explains time to first full packet. Yes that matters, not the first byte.

True. The msgpack serializer was probably used in a suboptimal way. The integer 3 can be encoded by msgpack in one byte as well. I never use doubles which is probably why I didn't think of this case. Integers are actually always <= byte

I seriously wonder how it's possible that in his tests JSON got smaller than MsgPack. MsgPack is so close to JSON in structure, but very compact (1 byte type header, small numbers type and payload combined) it doesn't make any sense.

Ever since I've started programming in haXe, it became clear that the language you code in should never be completely tied to a single platform. This article hints at Flex dying and tech needing replacement, yet many parts of an application

Isn't it quite easy to block USB storage devices at the OS level? I mean hiding the stick is clever, but it shouldn't really matter. If you only allow HID devices, the mouse still works without getting access to the data on the stick.

Makes me wonder how fast OS level garbage collection could be, without the need to have a virtual memory layer in between...

30% faster, because it's a rewrite? SWF is a very compact format and text rendering is optimized for speed (animation). I doubt their flash viewer was built on decent code...
