How else do you compare “web frameworks” except foe comparing their overhead? No everyone wants to write a database application. There are absolutely other types of applications in the world. Applications can be CPU and/or memory bound

How would they detect it? If the interface with Apple is simply an API to fetch and upload data. How would they know if the underlying physical machine is an Apple built computer running Linux, or a dell built computer running Linux?

Parts for something like this? $1 ESP32, $5 LCD, $2 lithium battery, $5 3D printed case. Assembly? (Depending on quantity) maybe $5. This is max $20 to build. I guess if you want something like this but don’t have time to build it it could

Cloudflare is a US company right? One assumes it’s controlled (if not directly, then indirectly) by US intelligence interests. That would protect it from non US intelligence influence would it not?

Yes, in rust, the package manager has built in rules about when to update a package. It won’t auto update a major version change because it implies a change that breaks something. As long as your package is safe to auto update you don’t wan

It’s a rust crate designed to be a native rust replacement for a rust c wrapper crate. It’s faster and easier to link to in rust projects. How would you even tell people you made a better rust crate without using the word “rust?”

You could save five minutes by typing faster _and_ also spend five minutes thinking. You are not considering all of the indirect effects. I.E. Someone who types twice as fast is more likely to be comfortable to throw in that extra line of d

Where did these laws come from, why do they exist? My childhood (independent playing outside, going to the park by yourself, etc…) is not literally illegal, or did these laws always exist and no one cared?

I am genuinely surprised to find out that some people leave large sums of money in these types of non-bank services. Why don’t people move the money out? Is it too much trust of the competence of these organisations?

Whether it is a person or an AI bot, if the end result is indistinguishable from an AI chat bot, then it is effectively for all intents and purposes just an AI chat bot.

I’ve never tried because I’m on Mac these days, but can’t you meet the licensing rules by using a Mac vps for 10 minutes to do a build, or even just use GitHub actions? (I read that GitHub actions provides a Mac build option but I’ve not tr

This is exactly what I was thinking about. Back then there wasn’t an anti google sentiment (or if so, it wasn’t strong) But now this sentiment would hinder a new language. Thankfully go has launched well enough that I think it can live on a

Early on it was risky to choose go, as it really wasn’t clear if go could achieve mainstream adoption. That said, in hindsight, it really should have been obvious. If I myself saw its benefits over the incumbents, I should have realized I w

Go has a standard code style, everyone agrees to use the same format and all our code becomes easier to read and standardized. Go is very much faster, you save time and money on computing resources. Go has built in testing and type support,

A company can lock the hardware but not the software, or lock the software but not the hardware? I’ve not heard this idea before, it sounds like an extremely logical idea. It would easily be achieved by splitting apple in two. I wonder if t
