Any good pointers to some of their technical blogs about this? It's quite astounding that architectures their size are implemented with the "slowest language around". It would be very interesting to read in-depth how they man

I think that the whole point of parent comment was that you need specialists to create that "publicly / academically available information" im the first place.

Qt for MCUs is definitely interesting, but I wonder if they are able to go quite as low resource-wise as these other lite-graphics libraries (like Littlevgl mentioned in another comment). TFA boasts RAM usage of 9kb. That's something y

In its simplest form, yes. Anything more sophisticated will inspect the traffic and drop SSH connections no matter the port.

I have the feeling that "Full stack adaptive delivery" and its ilk are aimed at VCs or BigCorp sourcing managers instead of anyone that would actually use the product. The sad thing is that they seem to be so mutually exclusive no

Like all the mainstream Linux distributions out there? But seriously, IIRC they do 5000 rounds by default, but I've been wondering for a few years how is it that supporting nothing better than SHA512 for the whole /etc/shadow

For similar price point (€105.62), from e.g. Azure you can get their "E2 v3" VM, with 2 vCPUs and 16 GB RAM, plus 50GB temporary storage . That's...quite a difference.

I was also wondering about the "safe and consistent" part. Doesn't Redis Streams with persistence solve those pretty well? Edit: oh, someone mentioned this being from 2013. No Redis Streams back then.

One of my previous companies required everyone to share their TrueCrypt keys with the IT dep. for this same reason (smallish company so it was manageable from their end). The rationale for it not being a privacy violation, which was a conce

I have a friend leading the IT team in a company of ~300, and he goes nuts if people keep probing him with "are you here?". He's a very chill person, but the problem was getting out of hand, so he started pasting users back

What a great idea. I would use that so much. Firefox reader mode is already pretty good, this would be an icing on the cake.

Nowadays there's no lack of enthusiasts even in the smallest of niches. Just follow your passion and do what you enjoy, the others will be there. Much easier than trying to enjoy things you don't like, and building your social cir

But that, and the parent's idea of binary formats in general, throws away the absolute golden property of text format configuration files: you can put those in git, and see with an accuracy of a single character what has changed. My im

To expand on your point, anecdotally it seems that the human mind works in the same way in other contexts, too. For example: - "Grass is always greener on the other side" - "You only fully appreciate great things when you los

This is also why commiting very often is a very good idea. I often try to reassure people new to git that "if you'll just commit often, there's basically no way you can lose work so that I can't help you get it back. Apa

But he gave concrete examples other countries have done to achieve the very things he mentioned. Why would you dismiss those obviously working solutions by hand-waving about world peace?
