Gatling – a high performance web server
- astrodust 11y agoWho actually prefers mailing lists over other methods of communication where email is optional?
- ams6110 11y agoOther methods such as? I still think nothing beats email for ubiquity and it allows the subscriber to consume and organize the content on his own terms (i.e. preferred email client, etc.)
- bjacobel 11y agoI don't have a preferred email client; I have an email client I hate least.
- sleepydog 11y agoI for one. There are fewer advertisements, most messages are just plain text and easily searchable, and I can receive and organize the data on my own terms. I still have mailing list posts I saved that are around 12 years old; every forum post I made over 10 years ago is gone from the face of the internet.
- dublinben 11y agoWhat methods of communication do you think have replaced the simple mailing list?
- astrodust 11y agoGitHub issues, for me, is way better. You can opt-in and opt-out of notifications per thread, so you can drop out of something that turns into a total fracas. I still get email notifications for things I'm subscribed to, or when I'm mentioned. It's exceptionally handy. Subscribing to even a single mailing list tends to flood my email client with junk. Unless you go through the trouble of filtering these things, which is a total nightmare to do across multiple devices, you're just going to have to read through every single message.

- vezzy-fnord 11y agoFefe is quite the character (his coding style aside) and has done plenty of worthy projects. He's ostensibly quite controversial though for his ardent positions on minimalism, among other things.

- legulere 11y agoHe also has problems understanding compilers that are adhering to the standards: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30475 https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30475
- urda 11y agoWow reading that was painful. Not a good way to get people interested in your projects either when you have behavior like that on a bug report.
- JasonFruit 11y agoIt was eight years ago; maybe he's learned how to accept correction more peacefully since then.
- hannob 11y agoTrust me, he hasn't.
- andor 11y ago"You know that the Ariane 5 rocket crashed (and could have killed people!) because of an int overflow? What if people die because you decided the C standard allows you to optimize away other people's security checks?" Sounds reasonable to me. As a security consultant, it's important for his work and his moral duty. Think of the children ;-) That integer overflow is undefined in the standard also doesn't make it go away. Integers overflow everywhere. It simply means that the details of it are not part of the standard. The new behavior he's complaining about is not any more standards-conforming than the previous one.
- SuperKlaus 11y agofyi, if you check the front page, you see that last time gatling was updated 2012-11-02
- bradhe 11y agoHas anyone ever advertised a low performance web server (on purpose...)
- allan_s 11y agono, but you may advertize a webserver with an other selling point in the title and recognize that it has only "average performance"
