> I'm pretty sure in the next years more and more so-called "developers" switch to text rendering by JS, This has been done for years on lots of sites.

what's the point in DDG then?

Great, now that we have this new fast hardware, time for developers to make everything 2x slower again.

Isn't DDG just a frontend for bing.com?

This is correct.

Strange to see a python backend for such a performance critical application.

And billions of profits go to owners and shareholders, while developers crunch 80 hours/week for $2000-3000/month.

Shows how fast websites without javascript are. Ironic, since JS was initially added to make things faster (ajax forms etc)

No they are not. I work with text, and the difference is night and day.

I still can't believe someone came up with this syntax and thought it was a good idea.

Interesting! Isn't original TP7 source code available? https://github.com/shidel/DustyTP7

Or because we created languages like Python that are 10x slower than compiled languages and write code bases with millions of lines of code in them.

This looks very interesting and clean. Well done!

Yeah it's nice when it's an apt install away. Not so nice on Windows or macOS. While Go supports it all out of the box.

But it only uses musl for cross compilation, no? I don't think it uses glibc to compile Linux binaries on macOS or macOS libc to compile macOS binaries on Linux.

https://nim-lang.org/docs/nimc.html#cross-compilation Nim doesn't seem to have excellent cross compiling support out of the box. It simply relies on cross platform toolchains that you have to set up. Good luck set

It's all written in Go + Postgres. Nothing else. Not sure what TPS is. No problem with scaling. Stack Overflow runs on a single machine. Use a fast compiled language and a simple stack. No need in $6k/mo AWS bills which are the fa

We are using two $3.5 AWS lightsail instances to handle hundreds of thousands of customers :) No hidden or unexpected costs.

its been more than 5 years, and nothing useful so far you can do "cool" stuff like running DOOM in your browser... but why?
