In many cases, the cold-start time might not be visible to users. E.g. if you serve your static content from a CDN, maybe you have stale content in local storage you can show while fetching updated data. If it all happens on a sub-100ms tim

You are right, it's double-edged. In some cases it can hurt companies (e.g. luxury good companies) while in other cases it can benefit them (e.g. car companies benefit from the second-hand market in many ways). It's a fascinating

There’s a startup in Switzerland ( https://www.pimpay.ch/ ) trying to offer no per-transaction payments (at the Swiss-level). I wish them good luck but it’s not going to be easy to disrupt the existing players in this field.

This is even older (I think), similar idea of building interactive experiences using off-the-shelf lasers: https://web.archive.org/web/20040202205307/http://www.monzy....

It's fun that the same algorithm applies to two different problems. In the disk case, the only unpredictable thing is future requests. Elevators have to deal with two unpredictable things, future requests as well as how long humans tak

For personal use, Bitwarden + a Raspberry PI should work perfectly fine. Your devices will sync when you are home. If they get out of sync, your fallback is to password reset. Or use your browser's built-in password manager which also

Password managers (whether it's Lastpass or your browser's built-in password store) also protect against phishing since they tie passwords to domain names. I don't think password managers which store encrypted vaults are less

There are several tiny demos on pouet.net, such as this 32 bytes dragon fractal: https://m.pouet.net/prod.php?which=63522 Very impressive what people can craft in an order of magnitude fewer bytes than this comment!
