Yeah no I wouldn't touch Kubernetes with a 10' pole. Way too much abstraction.

In the early days there was so much effort to allow transitioning systems (booting could take 5+ mins tho lol)

Amen. Lost art. All those years of shared libs and inetd, brilliant concepts, clobbered and forgotten by big daddy containers.

CloudFlare has become the problem. It's high time users banded together in their best interests: no ads, tracking, blocking, geo restrictions etc.

I've used Rust quite a bit now and there are too many features. It can't claim to be tidy anymore. Sure it's a better situation than C++, but it is getting worse and unlikely to get better.

This list will look different at 20 years. About half will be the same.

I agree. It's not ideal but Rust is a genuine improvement across the board on C and C++. It has the inertia and will slowly infiltrate and replace those 2. It also has the rare capacity to add some new areas without detracting from t

absolutely not. both because it's awful for implementing parsers, but also it introduces lots of extra hoops for interop. its build system is also terrible for targeting lots of varying platforms and feature sets. it has a custom IR th

because that's hard. also it's one choice I respect them for not making: don't self host until you have actual users and momentum (unless you want to to prove a point). if Roc intends to have industry usage, keeping it in ano

This is actually accurate. While Rust is a great replacement for C, so is C++. But Rust has tons of extra features that C doesn't have, just like C++. Moving from C++ to Rust is a sideways move. Moving from C to Rust is definitely an i

Watch the early DevCons. 2015-2016, P2P is all excitement. From 2017 it's just blockchain hype ad nauseam

I switched to being a professional shooter for 3 years. I came back because the pay was awful and it's really hard work. And despite all the downsides, I make more impact with my programming (and it pays a LOT more).

Yes. You only need the v1 info hash. The first thing a v2 client does with a v2 hash is derive the v1 hash from it anyway. In fact it can't connect to v1 clients until it's done this so prefer v1 unless you have good reason.

Only if you avoid connecting to the DHT, and public users not on the private tracker. It's a niche usage and not really that well supported.

This. I've been working in P2P for 13 years. It's mostly a solved problem. All the new tech and noise are unnecessary. People think improving the tech will cause adoption but it's not the case. P2P remains fringe because it

I'm the author of https://github.com/anacrolix/torrent and added v2 support a while back. The short answer is: You just publish as v1 infohash as if nothing is different, but the info contains extra stuff for v2 s
