React & a framework on top can be called minimal for a blogging platform? A blog entry[0] requires the transfer of 3.29MB (2.09MB of images with most which don't look web-optimised). [0]: https://papyrus.so/@Papyrus

As they describe being open to ideas and feedback: maybe using static compression could help. The concept is to pre-compress files (have foo.html.gz available next to foo.html) so that the web server does not have to compress on-the-fly. ng

With so many solutions, how could you be sure each one has an important role?

The justification was "one button with default style", the solution used is the same as Facebook which is clearly a dark pattern.

You might get similar throughput but the latency isn't comparable.

As if it was that simple; no it's not as simple as decentralization > centralisation. You might not agree with everything (I don't) but this video provides some good points https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nj3YFp

The question is then: is this isolation even useful? There are a lot of attacks that still exist when a program runs in userspace and that are not inherent to GUI programs. Example: creating an executable named sudo somewhere in a directory

I remember using this kind of service. The messaging platform I used to transmit the link tried to render a preview but that deleted the data because it was set to destroy after the first page view. Do you deal with that?

Please don't support such dark patterns that are already used everywhere. Your comment honestly reads as if you don't want the game to be enjoyed and this isn't at all in the "I don't care if this project succeeds&q

What cryptography are you referring to when talking about append-only logs? To me, an AOL is just a list of records that has a single operation, append. It could be implemented as a file that is only opened in append mode, multiple files (e

I find it weird how no one here in the comments acknowledges this signalling behaviour. I identify to this, see it as a problem and fight it every day. It's present everywhere, I realise that I always want to signal that I'm doing

I believe he means time. Taking a picture such as the example takes a few minutes while on vacation. Tiktok dances are made after entire days of training. The cost is massive for what the dance brings.

About the screen, swap is doable, easy and it's worth it. I changed the TN 720p on my X260 to an IPS 1080p.

This seems to refer to the concept of "data minimisation", that can be seen as an important concept in the GDPR. See article 5 § 1.c https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CEL.

Thanks. It seems to be the 2550kv version. Here are some numbers about it[0]. It might hover at idle if I read this correctly. I don't see how they do it at 196g though. 4 * 31.6 + 2 * 47.5 = 221.4g, with 47.5g being the weight of one
