There's a bridge to Matrix, so you don't need to use Discord. Although personally I regard Discord as a nicer experience.

Idk about you but I remember Java applets being really slow, and the applet sandbox horribly insecure.

It's unlikely that we'll break any of them, but it's possible. One can hope, I suppose, but I wouldn't put money on it.

Germany has historically been very pro-Russia. Both as a form of peace work and because of scepticism towards the US. It has also been very pacifist, refusing to supply (also indirectly) any country involved in a war with arms - even Ukrain

Depends by what you mean by "real buttons" but my first thought was that 99% of gaming mice will have at least 3 buttons and a scrollwheel. Often it's closer to 10 buttons. This one has 20 buttons (including 3 big ones and a

You can already do this, but I'd think WASM is a better fit for Lambda than a native compilation target. Means AWS can run your code on ARM or x86 depending on available capacity.

There's often a tradeoff between latency and throughput. Think GC algorithms or IO buffers. The Erlang project has historically chosen the far left end of this spectrum. They also haven't cared about numerical performance at all,

BEAM is not fast. You're probably going to get better performance with Node.js. It is however really really low-latency. But that doesn't help with handling load. Anyway, even so I'd guess bandwidth or the database is the iss
