And then all the gains were entirely eaten by first hop to a network device. Speaking from experience as I did similar thing, although speed was not a concern, just perpetual annoyance with available tools for blogging.

Sure but that's as useful as saying shit is social construct because we as humans decided to name it that. Technically true , practically it's vapid useless speech that doesn't bring anything useful to the discussion aside f

Technically with go:embed you could trivially make a blog server that is just a 200MB binary with all of it embedded. If you did it that way, now all your content is basically mmaped into the memory which means (probably) less syscalls. S

I did that in Go although it was "only" caching the markdown rendering - the page templates were written in Go (via some lib that gave tools to make that mangeable) and compiled with the app so the whole template building was blaz

If you have bathroom and kitchen on single circuit you have bigger fucking problems than powering gaming PC, whoever did that abomination needs to be fired.

...no. Average EU circuit is 230V/16A, that's 3.6kW Even if you ran 1kW (...somehow) you could still connect 3 of them and still have 600W left for audio/monitors.

The fuck are those calculations ? Are you trying to mislead people on purpose? Who is running their computer at 500W 24/7 ?

Well the pretty vanilla chip I waited year for last year is now only on 48 weeks lead time... The other a bit less common one is only few months tho, compared to year+ so I guess it slowly is. Inflation probably helped too

Counter-point: The use case is making relatively -shitty speakers in front of the computer better, and single point in space isn't really that much worse than trying to somehow put speaker in place your ears are and accomodate for all

Sadly probably serious. Taxing bigger cars to the point it's noticeable to average driver is probably only realistic solution, even if that's unfair for people that just happen to have a bunch of kids

At that point I believe that if software wasn't written Docker-first it will just be plainly shit to manage as Docker container. Docker containers more often than not are a crutch for app that have absolute shitshow install process t

I guess simplest fix for that particular one would be accepting `map[string]string` but that won't exactly work for the any type, and you can't easily add more. Maybe `...map[string]interface{}` but we're back to "the ov
