It's the "trivial to build" thing I have issues with - especially for the HTTP server. Not runtime vs third party.

I'm not saying it's impossible, but writing your own HTTP server ("trivial to build"?) to avoid bugs in other implementations doesn't sound like a good idea to me.

A pyenv is separating system and user / project packages. You could take it one step further and use pkgsrc, Nix, or homebrew. That way you can get a newer redis/RabbitMQ/whatever not just newer python.

Agreed. Joining system and user packages leads to cases like "how did my python upgrade break yum".

Container sizes may be affected though.

Isn't that what the middlebox (e.g. Kannel) was for? To transcode text to binary xml?

With the 1:1 intended correspondence of (public?) class names to source file names I get how that could be considered a feature for ease of use, compared to C++ where any file could define any name.

Oh that's nice. When I last looked (quite a long time ago), local::lib seemed to be the recommended way, and that seemed a bit more fiddly than python's virtualenv.

It's not like they put in a lot of work into it either (as per the article).

Wasn't node the only programming language that used a subdirectory for deps by default? Ruby and Perl certainly didn't have it - although Ruby did subsequently add Bundler to gems and gems supported multiversioning.

Good for them. Here we hear a lot about Chinese, Israeli, or NK hackers but not often Indian ones.

Sounds interesting. I once had a similar idea to trace / debug firewall rules but wanted to use Usermode Linux for full control of in/out packets.

From the linked article : "How to Design Programs is the first text book on programming that explicitly spells out how to construct programs in a systematic manner."

There's always going to be a namespace soup but at least in Java there's only one kind of thing in the soup.

You could cache the intermediate bits. Hell you could do this right now (somewhat) by doing script src=menubar.js and the script containing document.write calls. Not great for performance.

But running such a series hybrid with minimal charge of the batteries means almost all power is from the engine. And if that is undersized that won't end well.

It's not about storing crypto - it's about storing fiat currency for crypto companies.

If you bought this for cheating I guess you'd disable the IOMMU unless the game refused to run without one.

I wonder why a 20km channel would affect birds if plants aren't so affected.

Meh. The cool/ fashionable Casios are mostly branded G-Shock nowadays.

Judging by the name and by these opcodes https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/blob/7cb77385d38b96377... it seems to be intended for character set conversion especially JIS.

Yes, but clients shouldn't be encouraged to refer to server paths. It's unnecessary exposure of details and makes it harder to move things around. Also I wonder if this requires extra permissions. I know COPY from server files req

So you agree that end users do use it and are often incapable of getting the things they want to work with it?
