Goalposts are receding, but this is exactly the higher level I mentioned. Use io.Copy, and if you need any kind of transforms implement them as Readers.

bufio is for adding buffering regardless of source/dest. Better in this case is ReaderFrom (which will also be used transparently by io.Copy) to let the socket control the buffering and apply even more optimizations. For something like

The correct solution is to leave Nagle off but do larger writes. This will improve performance on all networks, not only noisy ones, and with no overhead. Go provides ReaderFrom for the general case of letting writers control the level of b

This is an embarrassing response. The second lesson you should’ve learned as a systems engineer, long before any distributed stuff, is “turn off Nagle’s algorithm.” (The first being “it’s always DNS”.) When the network is unreliable larger

If you are writing a serious proxy you should be working at either a much lower level (eg splice) or a much higher level (ReadFrom, Copy). If you’re messing around with TCPConn parameters and manual buffer sizes you’ve already lost.

> There's actually a lot of prevailing wisdom that suggests disabling Nagle's algorithm is (often) a good idea. Because even in mediocre networks it is a good idea. Don’t write a small amount of data if you want (or in this cas

If you want to buffer, you can still buffer. There’s no advantage letting the OS do it, and decades of documented disadvantages.

There is a public, documented API to turn Nagle back on. (Please don’t.)

It's absolutely wild to see people on this forum of all places saying they can't relate to the characters' social interactions. Thanks for a laugh even after the film is over, Rian.

I think there are a few hints - for example, the mythical Cassandra and Helen were also (non-mutual) twins, and putting a "Cassandra" and "Helen" on a Greek island (and maybe also in some sense "Paris") you&#x2

The Last Jedi is literally the only movie in the series to propose that a pseudo-religious order of wise men with a side obsession concerning blood lineages may not be the best way to structure a political movement.

When you pillory a lot of dumb people's idea of a smart person, it's not unsurprising you piss off a lot of dumb people.

This view is somewhat biased by what games are small enough to bring over to NA/EU conventions to sell and pitch, and the lower price range of games publishers are willing to take a chance on. This in turn created some expectation that

As someone who spent a big chunk of time in 2021-2022 trying to get rid of boardgames I don't want anymore, there's a lot working against reselling used games. It's a market where outside of the top ~100 games, a specific pro

TiltFive has some very nice demos but it's still several years away from being on par with Tabletop Simulator in terms of remote presence and fluidity of play in any boardgame not specifically designed for it.

There's really two separate issues in the pricing. - Games are getting a much higher production level than the past, and this costs more. Sometimes this is good, but often it isn't necessary, it's just to pad out margins. At
