You can't really count Opera as "significant". Handshake domains are only accessible by a tiny percent of people, make stuff like HTTPS very difficult[1], and no matter how devices eventually use Handshake, you'll always

I've been using Scylla for a project and have ended up reading quite a few of those blog posts. They are generally very well written and useful, but I've noticed the same sort of issues. There's the chat popup at the bottom,

They provide 3D asset downloads, most folks will only be downloading an asset a single time. Therefore, browser side caching doesn't really help, they need to cache the files on a CDN.

Yep was also going to mention this. Obviously, Argo still helps with latency and some other things probably, but if they're paying the additional $160 just for tiered caching, they should be able to switch off Argo.

Rather, Rust just makes this overhead explicit. Go, Node, etc do the same thing, but just hide what actually happens.

I wonder how the pricing will end up. At the baseline, $1200 for a MacBook Air with 16 gigs of ram is great value for the machine you get, even compared to Windows alternatives. For the new MacBook Pros, there are multiple companies who fel

You can't do quadruple esim, but arguably the experience with 4 esims on a single device is much better than carrying 4 sims. "You can store more than one eSIM in your iPhone, but you can use only one at a time. To switch eSIMs, t

Currently the satellites don't have intersat links. There is a ground station in each geofenced region, which makes mobility difficult. I'd expect it to start working once the intersat links are functional.

I would expect that to be true. Not the best numbers, but Wikipedia puts coal power plants at 37% efficiency and combustion engines at 20-35%. This makes sense too, power plants have space, money, and an incentive to increase efficiency. An

Build a native app and you get complaints about cross platform. Build an electron (or other cross platform toolkit) app and you get complaints about resource usage and non native ui. Seems to me that they know their target market (large tec

To only use Cloudflare for DNS, just add a record and make sure the orange cloud icon is off to disable proxying. However, your observation is mostly correct. Cloudflare offers at cost domain registration as an extra benefit (or lock in) fo

The problem with Python type checking is that the general community still does not write libraries with types. On the other hand, the JS community is further along and most libraries written today include TS files. I think the same will hap

Incredibly, the new Macbook Pros released this year have HDMI, a SD card slot, and MagSafe.

I'd love to see that happen, but as I understand it, that's a decision for the crates.io registry. Cargo itself doesn't deal with those types of details and you could host a custom registry that does have namespaces.

I was under the impression that most of Next's server side capabilities, outside of the recently introduced middleware and react server components, required a node environment. I know Vercel does offer multiregion capabilities for ente

If you take a look at the CONTRIBUTING.md, Mold has taken an approach that is pretty novel to me. Instead of requiring a CLA to allow for relicensing, all patches are required to be released as dual-license AGPLv3 and MIT. I personally love

There's no fundamental reason you can't since there are X11 clients for windows, which is what this uses. However, FreeBSD jails and Linux containers have very little overhead on their native OS, whereas Docker on Windows runs a L

At the very least, you don't need to do the first two steps. Backblaze can ship you your backup on a hard drive, which you can then return for a full refund. https://www.backblaze.com/restore.html

Sure the server hardware itself might cost only $5,000 a year, but it can't just be left there on its own forever, as seen with the ongoing log4j vuln. Either it costs that much and puts their entire network at risk, or it costs a lot

Unless you're running something that's mostly images, I'm a fan of pregenerating variants of images for static sites since storage has become so cheap. However, I think the best way of doing that is to actually generate the v

Yep there is so much overhead to making things decentralized. Take a look at filecoin sealing. Its a super cool system with a bunch of fun cryptography and math, but generating the proofs requires a lot of time and compute power and adds a
