I wish it had support for a system similar to webrtc's offer and answer SDP messages. From what I see, relay servers are doing a job that is equivalent to Stun + Turn + SignalingServer in WebRTC. This is great for simplicity, but havin

They differ in a similar way to how React differs from SolidJS. In react when state changes the component functions that depended on that state are rerun to compute what the component should now look like. Then react diffs the new output wi

Hey, I'm curious about the web component framework and css framework you mentioned. I was unable to find info about it, could you link me?

What would be the other lightweight statically typed scripting languages? There really aren't many.

I think I agree that it's akin to organized crime, it's a case of "the goal justifies the means". You see the goal of forcing union usage as a noble thing so you agree with these means. If the goal was one that you don&#

No, performance and power consumption should go hand in hand in this case. If you are strongly IO bound, paying for the synchronization is not really going to matter much I believe. There are cases where you can be CPU bound and using the s

This is true but the rest of the ecosystem is not built for it. If you try to use axum in this way you'd still need to use send and sync all over the place.

Instead of Arc and Mutex you'd be using Rc and RefCell. Wouldn't it be just as complex and verbose code-wise? I understand that it is less efficient but in the case you describe wouldn't paying for a few extra atomics be negl

So, how do you suggest a company would make profit while also not limiting to people who can afford paying for the product? If you are thinking of the free to play model with microtransactions, I do not think that it would work as well for

Didn't he address this? He has both the ability to report/block users and also the ability to report content (comments) in his app.

Because it runs in the browser it's trivial to apply client side cheats. For example see through walls, auto aim.

Browsers no longer leak local ip addresses, there's a new feature that uses mDNS instead of local ips.

by basro 6y ago
I think there's not. But, in case your WebRTC is disabled because of the local ip leaking thing, I'll have you know that both chrome and firefox have changed that and no longer leak local ips, instead mDNS is being used now. If yo

Yeah, it had a setting for that.

It uses WebGL and WebRTC for p2p connections.

Thanks, for the compliment. I'll consider writing a blog post in the future. It's actually kind of playable on android at the moment, but only if you have a keyboard or gamepad plugged into the device. I'm not really into mob
