It's hard to argue with someone who sees these 2 examples are the SAME thing, if you really see the 2nd example is equivalent in _SAFETY_ and readability as the first one, you probably haven't written much code or used many langua

HTTP3 is exciting, I got a couple of questions: 1. is QUIC only for HTTP3 or can be generalized for any TCP-based L7 protocol but over TLS/UDP? 2. How is Websockets dealt with in HTTP3?

kinda funny that UAE and Saudi Arabia have always had blatant human rights abuses including funding terrorism in places like Syria but nobody raise a brow until they isolated Qatar roughly 2 years ago, then suddenly the abuses are appearing

DDG has the most aggressive and adversarial marketing by an internet company I've ever seen that's only matched in intensity by Brave browser's company. Is Gabriel trying to sell before the end of the business cycle?
