You can modify this one to do that - or write your own using the same approach: https://github.com/danielgross/localpilot

My reading is the server with zsync can be any http server, client is zsync. Rsync on the other hand needs to use rsync on the server, and it scales badly because it does most work on the server.

Came here to find the thread discussing this. You stated what I'd think is the conventional wisdom and I expected this to be the top thread. However, this thinking comes at the cost of UX (or Developer eXperience). Much more mundane in

Great resource, I'd missed a few goodies. https://javascript.info is similarly good in teaching modern Javascript. I wish there was such a resource for modern C++ though. I learned and used C++ in the 90s and early 2000s, a

Network latency is not accounted for: they use AWS lambda calling DynamoDB / Redis in the same data center; Fauna endpoint is somewhere else. Curious what Firebase latency would be in comparison, when called from the same GCP data cent

Abstraction discovery is a hard problem in general. Good names help, but there's probably more we can do. Tooling finding a common pattern that the abstraction eliminates, perhaps?

You should be able to take your personal webpage off archive.org if you don't want it there. I think the mechanism is via the current robots.txt file.

It's no really about experience but rather about the ability to reason from first principles. Lots of developers with experience don't even attempt doing something because the structure of the problem demands it; they would only d

Ansible is pretty declarative actually, it won't repeat tasks that are already performed if it can figure it out.

Could you share the source for this? It's very useful for understanding the situation.

AFAIK there exist cryptographic protocols that can authenticate you without revealing the password to the server. They aren't standard though.

It's certainly task-dependent at least to some extent. If the task at hand is to fix a zillion spelling errors in the UI, there is certainly no 10x variance in programmer's ability (there might be a big variance in motivation thou

What a useless article. Reading it, you would think Azure is somehow leading on AWS, when market share is 33% AWS vs 13% Azure. This is never mentioned among the buzzwords.

I'd like to be able to load log files in a database and have it take the same space as compressed log file size, not the uncompressed size (which can easily be 20x more). I guess this requires database built on compact data structures
