That doesn’t answer the question at all, and I wonder if it’s actually true? A cache is not magic; it is, itself, just a static file server in the end. If I self host a static page website on an nginx box, do I actually need cache to serve

You use research as an argument, which is valid in a conversation where nobody has any information about specifics. E.g. in the pre-life, before a soul is about to be incarnated, you can point to that research and say: you are more likely t

FYI I recently discovered a 1p browser extension feature named “Password Generator History”. It has a record of all generated passwords, whether their respective items ever ended up saved or not. Live saver. https://support.1pass

I used to see far more references to Postel’s law in the 00s and early 10s. In the last decade, that has noticeably shifted towards hyrum’s law. I think it’s a shift in zeitgeist.

I’m guessing the app works but their prod servers don’t? If they can point the app during review at a “self hosted” GitHub Enterprise server on a test domain with AAAA that would pass the requirement as stated by gp , without requiring GitH
