Have just read above that it's possible. It's interesting actually. So I guess I'll do that once I buy a new mac. I have a maxed out pro, with i9 and so on, so throwing it await would be a shame

What I wanted to say that I don't like exactly that. The hardware is fine, but software is not.

Why? I can upgrade, that's not a problem. I'm just saying macOS works fine so far, almost all of the software works too. But I see increasing amount of announcements like this one suggesting that I'll have to replace hardware

I guess I'm the only one who is still on x64. I don't like I'm pushed to migrate only because the software wants that, otherwise the hardware works with no problem.

Exactly. The commit message is supposed to be for the future developer, not to generate changelog. And the main case when that developer reads the commit message is when he doesn't understand _why_ that commit exists. Not what it chang

That may sound strange, but it turns out I don't use WASM as well. Last time I touched this part was ~8 month ago, and WASM was just one of the experiments, and I forgot about this. Just remember it was hard to find a right approach in

Nice project, thank you for working on it. I was trying to figure out the architecture, and I understand that it runs a Deno VM to execute JS on the backend? I was working on something similar, but for JVM backends [1]. And it seems there a

I'm curious why you can't legally pay in crypto? I heard a few times about companies paying in crypto to their remote workers. In fact I heard that a US company was paying in BTC withing the US, though I'm not sure I trust t

I had a bad Cloudflare experience. So, my card on file got no balance one day (my bad, I forgot to update to a new card), and they just turned off the services. They somehow managed to charge partial amount (like 80% of the bill), but deci

I think the author means all dbs that fit a single server. Because in distributed dbs you often want to spread the load evenly over multiple servers.

We made a script to avoid such situations. It checks the dependencies, just by parsing the package.json (or the lock file), checking the relevant time on npm registry, and returns error if it finds a too fresh package added. We run it on CI

Ah, I had a similar situation with them. They also closed my personal account immediately after closing the business account. I was really surprised it works that way.

I mean the arrest. But as I just learned [1] he is being allowed to make periodic travels to Dubai since recently. So things got better for him now, but that's just since July 2025. Before that he was physically staying in France since

I think for the past couple of years he lives in France. By force, so it's not very straight to recognize it as a free or not.

AFAIK the recommended way is to open a bank account through smaller banks (aka neobanks). They just send you a card to address specified and once you activated it you (first) get a bank account for payments and (second) can use it to prove

In the times of AI it's really easy to verify the question above. I had literally just copied it to the chat and made a research (also asked to cite and manually verified the links). So it says there are 57 billionaires in UK with tota

That's different because in Bitcoin's case there was a clear violation of the specification, of how it supposed to work. So the bug was fixed to make the software working as it intended to be. If there were two node implementation

I think you're referring to the Winston Churchill's "on Land Monopoly". I don't remember exact details and may miss something, but the work is very short so please check it. In short, he described, I believe, a real

I'm sure they do it at the first place. It seems to be p.2 here, but it even less acceptable by many, as it's just "greedy people multiplying their wealth." Speaking of "fixing outside world," I'm not sure

Yes, I understand they looked at the source and re-implemented a bunch of it when they started 10 years ago. But in the result it's a very different code. I mean, it's 45K commits so I believe they implemented things by themselves

Copycat is a bit of a stretch here imho, considering it's in different language, and even the general architecture. But I agree they are very compatible on the protocol level, which they used as an advantage as people don't need t
