I don't know yet, I never built one. How would you do it? Come up with new protocols, innovative techniques to work around it, solve it? Maybe just take some downtime for granted? I'm sure somebody can come up with a workable solution. HN is full of smart people!
- Kalium 4y agoIt's not particularly challenging to set up a cache layer over a webserver. No new protocols or innovative techniques from smart people are required. Nor is it technologically difficult to accept that sometimes HTTP requests won't work. I think the point being made here is less about new things and more that you should refine your requirements. The computer in your pocket can do anything a stationary computer can do - it's Turing-complete, so this should be obvious - subject to the limits imposed by the hardware. What limits are you, personally, willing to accept for your home-server-pocket-computer?
