I wonder if this part is satire, if so, how come? I definitely feel it should be much less.
- xena 3y agoMy read time estimate code is here: https://github.com/Xe/site/blob/aa3608afa6c62695ca0ab139f82352dd8e97994e/src/post/mod.rs#L151-L159 https://github.com/Xe/site/blob/aa3608afa6c62695ca0ab139f823... I've been trying to play with the constants over the years to make the read time estimate more "accurate", but it's a tough nut to crack in general. So I can go over my numbers more accurately, how long did it take you to read it?
- ignoramous 3y agofwiw, it took 5m to read. Nb: I was already familiar with a lot of the terms in the post (partly because I've already experimented relaying IP over Cloudflare's DurableObjects instead of S3), and skipped the dialectics.
- jerf 3y agoEstimate includes the additional latency you will experience while downloading the post through the mechanism described in the post, which is the only true way to read it.
