Heh. For the past 3-ish years I operate a flock of microservices in Go. I don't really write the code, but do quite a bit of reading to debug and fix stuff. This month I've seen a channel in production code. I did a double take an

A Swiss colleague was doing his pilot license at the same time as his son was doing a driver license. Both were about the same price, but apparently flying a Cessna is somewhat easier than driving a car.

I've been using it for free. Afar as I understood, the only thing I'm missing out on is faster export times.

When I looked at what map finds, there were only connections with two or three transfers. That doesn't sound like a comfortable night.

It _really_ depends on the distances and sizes of the cities you're going to. Paris-London train is about 3 hours, which is likely less than you'll spend on getting to+from an airport. Paris-Berlin on the other hand is miserable,

"Shouldn't ever be used" is an overstatement though. My employer (Google, no less) would apply restrictions, but not hoover logs from the personal profile. Meaning it's still good to have messaging and music there while

It is not fundamentally flawed, it just isn't a general purpose computer. It's a thin client to your cloud services. The "local" is not a primary compute environment, but just a cache. Once you think about it this way, C

Thank you. Seems that's not for hobby projects like these then.

I'm not sure "an archive with all the data" is what you really want either. At some point you'll hit the limit of how much data does your filesystem allow in one file. Not sure if your browser is that good at resuming fa

Does the GDPR mandate usage of English? I know orgs that will allow antispam eat any communication not in the local language.

I already have a Qt app I would like to package now ( https://github.com/lrem/FastCull ). Would fbs be something to look into, or should I investigate some alternative at this point?

I drank quite a bit of raw milk in my childhood. But it had to be fresh. I could walk up, glass in hand, to an uncle carrying today's yield to the storage room. I would get the most delicious milk ever. But if I was a couple minutes la

That's a lot of words to say "people are free to steer clear of people they don't like and always have been". And not much of thought into "what changed that now it is a problem perceived by some?" There has be

This also might push some people over the edge to buy things now, so the number can soar. But also: this isn't a holiday season, so the baseline might be way lower than the average.

Disclosure: I work at Google. Look at this from pure selfish Google perspective. With the large market penetration, Google earns some share of the total ad revenue of the Internet. Hence, it is in Google's selfish best interest to see

I'm wondering how much a Hashcash implementation would help. The approach doesn't seem to be widely attempted. Maybe because we assume spammers are using botnets anyway and don't care about computational cost?

Stop Forum Spam looks nice. It's great they're giving the data like this. In fact, I'm somewhat surprised there's no software download to self-host. Seems rather easy to make, given the data files. Are there any other fi

Closed communities is where it's at... But they have the obvious inherent problem: they don't scale. If a closed community lets in too many people, it becomes a somewhat obscured open community, with all the downsides. And if it d

I think you're grossly underestimating how much is needed to replace the ad revenue that feeds today's Internet. Remember, majority of people wouldn't pay for getting rid of ads, because they don't have the disposable in

I'm quite serious - if someone starts with doubting this kind of claims in general, your portfolio isn't really designed to be obviously authentic. I see blog posts on your company's website that don't attribute you pers
