Implementing fastcgi is a lot of fun, and by far not the hardest protocol out there. It's certainly easier than HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, and (elder gods have pity on us) HTTP/3. So if you don't have access to a library tha

This seems like a direct stab to NVidia and CUDA. I couldn't find out how good is this performance-wise, but I discovered that up to 45% of die area in Intel processors is for their embedded GPUs. And they didn't bother to expose

I didn't get to that point in the article, but seriously for all the paragraphs I read I thought they were just making software that I could run in my old laptop at home acting as a web-server, or a Peer-to-Peer browser-based thingy. &

While I understand this is an ugly turf war between Epic and Apple, I'm a little confused about certain other app. How is it that Audible (owned by Amazon) let's you "spend credits" that you purchase at Audible.com direc

That's why I buy my "news" at Amazon, as e-books on the topics I'm interested, since for 99.9999999999% of the things happening in the world, nobody really cares about how many months they will have to wait for my opinio

Not if using/selling the email address you provide is according to the ToS of the seller. Then they can legally spam john+as.entered.in.the.form@gmail.com but not john@gmail.com, which is a huge downer.

Where I live, it's not that uncommon to found a tech company and step down as the "nominal" CEO a few months later to put in place a white guy—the right shade of white—who fits the expectations of customers and partners. The

Amazon has been criticized before for selling some third-party products of very low quality. Something they can solve by using the top-spot for their own brands, without completely marginalizing the third-party providers. And it's not
