I’m not a religious person but being hysterical about wanting to point fingers at believers because “they are obviously wrong” is missing the point. They may not be able to prove something mystical, as you said, exists but you certainly can

We have the same thing in France but to prevent speeding when a light is about to go red. On some lights, there’s a speed sensor, if a car exceeds the speed limit, it instantly goes from green to yellow then red.

Your provider would have to nullroute the ip under attack and you'll have to wait for DNS cache expiration so your updated zone is being distributed to clients. Short TTLs are not honoured by everyone so you'll experience some dow

I feel like chrome apps were actually ahead of their time and very much better than embedding a full browser per app with electron. Of course, they were not perfect but IHMO made much more sense than what we have today, at least on a techni

I absolutely understand the frustration of the author. Unfortunately, this is what you get by making your product depend too heavily on a external product you have no control on. It's a huge risk to take and may end up pretty poorly if
