Mullvad UX is pretty sweet - I especially like how they don't force signups, and still let you open ports. I wish there was a premium tier to let you pay for more bandwidth though, the fact that down speeds are capped at 300MBPS and up

Nice. Hold on a sec while I uninstall all the random apps I have left over on my phone...

I worked for a company that made deep packet inspection based network equipment. Western customers mostly used it for "security" and media streaming man in the middle attacks (actually a useful feature saving lots of bandwidth).

Another way to look at this: users got years of free unlimited photo storage before google decided to monetize. IDK, storage ain't free, it was nice while it lasted

It sounded like the reason for making it km wide was to avoid creating a gigawatt death laser - I assume if they were doing a flight assist thing they would send less total power and could concentrate it more

Little functions in the void suck, because the void is crazy complicated and has all kinds of things you have to think about

no but they paid for the electric bill for their room. The university should have made a policy about per-room usage The Man will fuck you on any technicality they can - don't turn around and give them the benefit of the doubt

Almost everyone on my team joined after we went full remote - one thing that has helped a lot is 4 hours of "mob" pair programming per week. Basically a time where anyone who has something interesting to talk about, or a problem t

I like the idea mentioned in the article of increasing the number of packets sent in the slow start - as far as I know you could just crank that from the server side TCP stack to something much larger, right?

I recently hopped on the SQLite train myself - I think it's a great default. If your business can possibly use sqlite, you get so much performance for free - performance that translates to a better user experience without the need to b

One way mentioned in the article: geofenced subpoenas. E.g. Ohio police tell Google to give them the information of all the people who went to an abortion clinic in Indiana (the geofenced) because they are suspected of a crime, then the Ohi

This tool looks great - it automates a lot of the process we have for major incidents at my company! One feature I was hoping this would have, related to on-call, but for minor week-to-week incidents: My team gets many low priority alerts e

Wow, I had no idea that java was so fast. One thing I like about go is that you can cram many thousands of concurrent requests into the same process. But it looks like java has some pretty robust async tools... So I bet you could do somethi

A pattern that has saved my bacon a number of times: When writing the "permanent delete" code, only issue the delete when you have proven that there is a backup. i.e.: - Create a backup of the data you want to delete and store it

Yeah. Looks like there's an open source version of this, similarly polished streamhut.io

Aww, what a great idea. I'd love to use a self hosted version of this for work, but there's no way I could pipe my shell output to a 3rd party site, too many juicy secrets.

if it was slow running on a dedicated vps, not super encouraging. The thing I liked about the idea of IPFS pinning is that you are paying per byte stored, v.s. per byte accessed, as long as the p2p sharing works. I.e. hosting-via-pinning a

How much were you paying for your IPFS pin? E.g., if you are getting something via HTTP, there's a server somewhere with that content just waiting for you to request it, typically stored on an SSD, etc. V.s. IPFS pins which are typical

> concurrency-related bugs that have been masked by the GIL Yeah... could phrase this as "All programs written with the assumption of a GIL are now broken" instead. Wish they had done this as part of the breaking changes for py
