My ninebot scooter (maybe not what you're asking, but it's a Segway product) slows down until it can't carry you anymore. First it just can no longer achieve the maximum velocity, then soon it can no longer reach standard spe

"everything works fine" might be overstating a bit, but what happens to packets you weren't expecting when you don't have a connection open for them to go into? They probably get ignored by the network stack. Worst case

You know what skywalking doesn't have though, apparently, is Ruby support! I would love to understand a bit better why this one gets left off the list so often. "There's just nobody interested in putting those two things toge

I'm guessing (it appears to be true) that every single one of the people writing about their issues here (1) didn't try Spin, because (2) they're intent on targeting a web browser as a runtime environment, and (3) Spin does n

Maybe so, as what we're doing in absence of proper docs is rightly classified as something worse than alpha. The best docs they had so far up to this point: https://tailscale.com/kb/1185/kubernetes/ Thes

So if I'm not using the Hue app, am I affected? That's what isn't particularly clear from the post or the comments here. If you're already using their app, is it so onerous to get an account? (I might or might not get an

This one is easy. I say this in spite of the spate of different answers that say otherwise... it should be easy? You version your apps, of course, and you would publish some artifact that represents the release. Historically this has been a

I spent a while rewriting a tiny bit of some useful Ruby in Rust and integrating it via Wasmer, and I definitely think my time expenditure is better classified as "fun thing to do" than "magic fix". https://os

I don't think that's what GP means by "legally binding" When a company gives you a license that has terms written in it, that license is binding... on them as well as you. When a company gives you a document that refers
