I don't have a reddit account, but that is pretty much what etcd was built to do. IIRC it was built for CoreOS to handle lots of linux machines. Later Kubernetes started using it for its metadata storage. It is as a distributed key-val

IIRC HVIF is designed to render in one pass as well targeting to be both small and fast. It also use non-standard floating point, to be even more compact. And has more than two level of details. So guessing HVIF is a lot better except for t

I think so, since v2 and v3 are two different things they made a mess of things. It should have been two different specs. Continuing with docker-compose name is just bad, release any improvements in a clean spec.

As a Swede I think it is important to remember that Sweden is quite sparsely populated.

Another benefit is it removes a lot of otherwise unneccessary imports. I think var should be used anywhere where the righthand-side expression is clear. Compare var str = new String(); to var waat = HERE.be().dragons("purple"); An

Haiku has it own set of API's, that is a bit different than other platforms (message passing, multi-threaded). The UI API's is defined in the Interface Kit. See https://www.haiku-os.org/docs/api/ Here is

No mention of IP v6 at all in the post but luckily they did better on their docs at https://1.1.1.1/ It is 2018, IP v4 isn't really something you should use other than as a fallback. "For IPv6: 2606:4700:4700::111
