I love the idea of a more efficient CDN for JS (and code overall!), but it isn’t clear to me how this handles the multitude of versions. None of the examples seem to include versioning, which is a huge oversight IMO. A future I see is IPF

Does anyone know how it compares to mypy? Mypy is very slow in my experience, would love a more performant option.

For the MTM scenario, how would you convince letsencrypt’s CA to issue you a cert for any domain? Don’t you need to complete the challenge in order for the CA to issue you a cert?

No. The worst case is that the engineering team spent more time working on “well encapsulated projects” than on the most important project for their business and are all now out of jobs. Most companies don’t fail because of tech debt. And c

Sunny Cove extends virtual addresses to 57 meaningful bits...The new limits enable 128PB of virtual address space and 4PB of physical memory. This is interesting to me. At first glance I couldn’t really figure out “why now”. But I guess

Or alternatively the market is not very efficient. There is zero marginal cost for a font to be used, yet people are currently precluded from using fonts due to price. That seems to suggest there may be an inefficiency, and reducing the pri

Does anyone have a link to a diagram describing how this works? I don't understand how heating it re-condenses the water.

What is wrong with stopping people from reusing the same password? It can be done securely using the same storage mechanism as passwords, ie storing hashes only.

What if the increase in lung cancer was caused by more breathes being taken. It would be funny if both the “energy/metabolism” crowd and the “cancer” risk proponents were correct.

Google is using their security research as a marketing weapon against Apple. From the article itself, Android is arguably more vulnerable as measured by percent of users running a device whose OEM has not distributed an update.

How does this theory explain the act of crying in private? The theory explains why someone would want not to cry in front of people (loss of prestige/dominance), but not why someone would want to cry alone, in private.

Noo!!! This is vulnerable to path expansion attacks. If someone passes a URL such as your site/s3/..EVIL_BUCKET/EVIL.js all of a sudden your site is serving someone else's content. Bad idea. Use virtual host style bucket
