Thanks, looks very promising! I'll dig into this the next time I'll need to archive a web page.

I see that the author took a 'heuristical' approach for retrying tasks (having a predetermined amount of time a task is expected to take, and consider it failed if it wasn't updated in time) and uses SQS. If the solution is h

Downloading a DB dump and crawling locally is possible, but had two gnarly show stoppers for me using wget: the forum's posts often link to other posts, and those links are absolute. Getting wget to crawl those links through localhost

The slowdown wasn't due to a lot of permutations, but mostly because a) wget just takes a considerable amount of time to process large HTML files with lots of links, and b) MyBB has a "threaded mode", where each post of a thr

Funny seeing this here now, as I _just_ finished archiving an old MyBB PHP forum. Though I used `wget` and it took 2 weeks and 260GB of uncompressed disk space (12GB compressed with zstd), and the process was not interruptible and I had to

Thankfully some service providers noticed the awful convenience and are trying to proliferate themselves by offering a better service. For example mop.la let's you buy the ticket via credit/debit card, gives you a digital ticket a

Can someone explain to me what the main differences to jq are, besides the syntax?

Wow, that looks extremely useful. I typically use docopt for all my CLI needs, but it looks like this could be really nice as well. I will have to try it the next time I'm building a CLI.

It is. As far as I'm aware issues like these are only problematic if you either manually run a workflow (it uses your credentials) or have a workflow with the "pull_request_target" trigger (uses a token with write access). Th

Well, yes. The question was whether you can sign _on GitHub_, so your private key has to be available to GitHub. You can always sign locally if you don't trust GitHub.

Yes. Here's an excerpt from their documentation on < https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/m... >: > GitHub will automatically use GPG to sign commits you make using the GitHu

There's nothing wrong with it per se, in fact Discord is very good software, but it being a for-profit company using closed-source code comes with the usual privacy and free-software concerns. For example here's a post on reddit a

> half of our devs dont like sql much I'd suggest you and your team shouldn't rule out SQL-like databases, given a lot of very competent NoSQL databases have SQL-like syntaxes (say Cassandra or ScyllaDB, what Discord went with)

Is it really "disturbing" if it's maintained by mostly college students? If this was done by industry veterans I could understand your stance, but the way things are this feels uncalled for.

I am personally abusing the block feature for this. I haven't tested if it is actually true, but I began blocking channels that I am not interested in and haven't noticed anything being recommended yet from any channel I remember

You may also be interested in taking a look at [quarkus](quarkus.io) in that case. It's a relatively new platform developed by RedHat that focuses on cloud usability, performance and developer joy, while using well-established APIs lik

Not official, but I have had good experiences with AvaloniaUI, which sticks very close to WPF and is part of the .NET foundation umbrella. It inherits quite a lot of what made WPF mature and robust

Speaking of memory leaks, I once had to debug a memory leak caused by console log entries. Objects that are logged to the console are prevented from being garbage collected, even if the console was never opened. That includes DOM nodes or I

For that particular use case it may be better to pass a constructor reference / new instance supplier to not rely on reflection.

While it does need to maintain backwards compatibility, Project Valhalla seems promising on improving on some of Java Generic's pain points. So it's not a dead end quite yet

As "better" isn't clearly defined, here are some things that some people might consider superior: - primitives or any custom value types/structs can be used. No need for boxing or method duplication for primitives. - typ
