That's a fantasy of the hobby FOSS developer. "If I make something so great then people will still pay me even if I give it away for free!" A tiny percentage of people might still pay for it, but the vast majority will not, a

I don't even use chrome and this sounds miserable. I had to run it for something the other day and immediately got nagged to remove uBlock Origin because they automatically disabled it. And I'm just thinking.. I will never, ever

> Allowing library developers to do whatever they want with {} expansions is a good thing, and will probably spawn some good uses. I completely disagree with this. Look what happened to Log4J when it was given similar freedoms.

I'm aware that Europeans think the post-war stimulus was a myth. What isn't a myth is the billions of dollars given to them. The same billions were given to Japan and Korea and they actually used it to bootstrap an advanced, sust

My understanding is that the British "Arm" is just a patent holder now. I don't think they actually make anything. Companies outside the UK are the ones that actually make the chips licensed from the Arm designs.

That's an HTTP 1.1 problem, not SSE. Websockets has the same restriction.

Oh certainly and I'm not arguing against Lua's decisions to have a small stdlib. Just commenting on why it has seen low adoption outside of specific niches like scripting game engines, etc.

It actually looks like the server is used regardless. It's sending the full curl command to the backend even if not executing it.

by VWWHFSfQ 2y ago
This would be useful if it was client-side only. I only very rarely have curl commands to run that don't also include some stuff like cookies and tokens, which I'm not sending to someone's server so they can run curl for me.

All of those already have heavy sanctions. Additional tariffs do nothing since it's already effectively illegal to do business with them.
