>sane concurrency primitives Could you elaborate on this? Are you perhaps talking about STM? I can't think of anything else that is really missing.

Thanks for that link, it's good to see more measurements. Would you elaborate a bit on APNIC's data having less bias than Google? As far as I know, Google is quite popular worldwide, with the exception of China, so measurements ta

The charts graph IPv6 traffic, so it also represents a lot of human behavior. What you're seeing here is actually IPv6 being about ~4% higher on weekends compared to week-days. Looking at last week's data: June 16th (Sat): 2

I'm completely ignorant about C++, so I will ask this question: What's the state of memory management in modern C++? Is it easier to avoid shooting yourself in the foot? Can you write code that is completely safe? I've alwa

Belgium (50.02%) is ahead of the USA (37.19%) on that chart, although you may have missed that as it's quite a small country. Click "Europe" to zoom in a bit. Alternative data from Facebook -- https://www.facebook.

I use Linux so I can't use Edge, and even if it were available, I'd probably carry on using Firefox. I have a dedicated Windows gaming PC, but on that I probably use Steam Browser more than anything. My partner, however, does uses

Why is the URL so long? Weren't .onion domains about 16 characters long? Compare with Facebook's hidden service: facebookcorewwwi.onion dns4torpnlfs2ifuz2s2yf3fc7rdmsbhm6rw75euj35pac6ap25zgqad.onion Also, how does tha

It's a nice to have - but not a dealbreaker - for me. Since I've been using GitHub for years, I am already locked into a platform that's IPv4 only. If I'm moving somewhere new, I'd like to have IPv6 if possible.

Why don't GitHub and GitLab support IPv6?

If you're thinking of moving off GitHub, one thing that I have heard about that might help you is you can ask GitHub to mirror repos, the way https://github.com/moodle/moodle looks -- note it says: moodle&#x

Hey, what software are you using to collect the data and display that graph? I wouldn't mind running something on my server that could notify or log if 1.1.1.1 (and other services I rely on) are slow or down.

Do you mean it can't ever be trusted? Or just right now? BGP hijacking isn't that difficult to pull off. I hope you're not trusting 8.8.8.8 either: https://twitter.com/bgpmon/status/44526664261686886

How effective is this? Looking at https://bgp.he.net/ip/1.1.1.1 , 1.1.1.0/24 is apparently "ROA Signed and Valid". I don't know a lot about BGP. Does this mean hijacking this subnet is a bit harder t

AFAIK you can configure this in chrome://flags to see what it looks like. Do you know the thinking behind getting rid of the EV indicator? Is EV considered useless? Edit: Just as I posted this, someone else answered my question:

Why do they do that? They already have an /8 to themselves -- 10.0.0.0/8. Did they need an additional 16M IP addresses?

Off-topic: how did you format that equation (K = mv^2/2) so nicely? e.g. mv is in italics. It looks really nice. Does Hacker News have built in LaTeX, or is that just very clever use of Unicode?

Would you be open to having a phone call, or some other more direct way of discussing this? It may be easier to be more empathetic.

I wrote that in anger, and almost right away removed it when I calmed down. Please see my current comment.
