Sure. If you've done nothing significant with the language then a breakup is easy. Easy come, easy go.

If you've spent years, or even decades, building a portfolio with Python then the breakup is going to be much harder, just like in human relationships. Some things will make sense to leave in Python until end-of-life. Other things will be worthwhile to migrate to Go. Of course your new greenfield projects can start off using Go.

Just know this - you're going to go through this again in another 10-15 years, if not sooner. I've been writing software now for 40 years, that's just the way it goes.

I've only started load testing my applications until after I switched to Caddy, so I don't have a comparison. But I'm easily seeing ~7'000 r/s when serving a static frontend (don't have reverse proxy numbers on hand) on a small hetzner machine. That's without looking into what the bottleneck is. Against localhost I've seen ~50'000 r/s.
Good enough for me.
> and cant do anything I should not do (browsing the internet)

I’m increasingly shifting towards that side of the fence, looking at the web browser as the gateway to a toxic waste dump.

Luckily, I’m not doing frontend stuff, so I can survive (and blossom even) without a running browser.

The computer “feels” empty and quiet that way, like it used to feel back in the day when the modem was off.
Good point about the desperation. I guess that would make you do things you'd rather not. And then a society that enables the abuse.

> I'm learning Lisp in order to do one big thing that I don't think would be possible without Lisp.

You might have to say more about that: Lisp's decline in popularity is because other languages have caught up and can now do pretty much the same stuff. So Lisp's attractions atoday re more spiritual than practical, imho.

I do think there is value for every programmer in spending some time with Lisp. But, its features like extensible syntax lost their charm some decades ago. See for example Wadler's 1987 criticism of SICP, "Why Calculating is better than Scheming", https://stuff.mit.edu/afs/sipb/project/reading-group/past-re...

I can't think of any significant projects I'd choose Lisp for, except things like Emacs extensions that depend on specific Lisp environments, or else maybe quick prototypes of things with DSL's.

To misquote somebody, anyone who is not a Lisper at 20 has no heart. Anyone who is still a Lisper at 40 has no head.

I've slept in the same bed with a work-colleague of mine a few years ago during a team-building trip, we're both males. We were quite on good terms but I wouldn't say we were sharing our deepest emotional thingies, things were ok (other then his snoring).

My dad often tells me how he used to do the same thing some years ago during company trips. Sure as hell the company wouldn't have paid for two separate hotel rooms when sending a team of 2 guys out to some remote town/city, and if it so happened that that room had one matrimonial bed instead of two separate beds then bed-sharing was the norm.

On a more general note, strangers share beds and rooms while sleeping without thinking about the sex stuff, they just want to have a good night's sleep.

This is more complicated than it sounds. Amazon is continually trying to stay ahead of de-DRM software. In many cases you have to use older versions of the Kindle software to download, or use de-DRM software external to Calibre to do the DRM removal. I download recent purchases from Amazon directly to my Mac and the de-DRM addins in Calibre didn't do a thing to them. I haven't yet tried standalone de-DRM scripts on them.

> I think most people agree that license plates are a good societal tradeoff in terms of privacy.

I think most people have never even considered the matter in those terms; they just accept that license plates are how we do things and don't bother asking why.

When you actually ask why, your claimed upsides don't, IMO, actually amount to much. Enforcement of traffic laws? Most of those are revenue sources for local jurisdictions, not improvements in safety. If someone does no harm when violating a traffic law, there's nothing actually worth enforcing from a safety perspective; and if someone does do harm, how much help is a license plate in tracking them down? What fraction of people who are in traffic accidents leave the scene in their vehicle before the police get there, but get found later because their license plates were known? A large enough fraction that license plates for everyone are justified taking into account the privacy downsides?

This, btw, is the same logic you apply yourself in the latter part of your post. And your conclusion?

> I think the security state would be hitting us over the head with these statistics if they could actually make a coherent case

Which means that, since they're not, there actually isn't a case. And I agree with that--both for license plates and for encryption backdoors. And for other claims that we need to give up our privacy for some other supposed benefit.
Wouldn’t cloning a TV deprive the manufacturer (and all associated parties) of revenue?

Doesn’t copying a digital work without consent deprive the creator (and all associated parties) of revenue?

Isn’t deliberately depriving a person or persons of remuneration for their work stealing?

The laws against making digital copies of a work without the consent of the rights holder are not arbitrary. They’re in place to ensure those who invested time and money into creating something can earn money from the thing they create.
> Or do you mean a system where people can steal what they want because 'reasons' and 'they want to pay less because xyz'?

If you have a copy of something, and I make a copy of it, and you still have your copy of it, what was stolen? If I find a book in the library and take pictures of each page, is that also theft? What if I write all the words down? What if I use a hand scanner and OCR to copy and transcribe it, is that theft?
Numpy is not the kind of thing you would include in the std lib anyway.

In my mind, this is more of a problem with TLS than it is a problem with older, slower, or simpler computers. Encypted, complex, and/or fast-churning protocols are sold as delivering security and efficiency, but in practice, for many applications, they primarily function as a ratchet to artificially induce obsolescence.
This is a no true Scotsman fallacy, just like "no true implementation of socialism has ever failed" is.
Good overview article, with specifics for the local market.

One nit-pick:

> Worst case scenario, which happens the majority of the time in Ireland right now, it will be recovered – which means that it will replace fuel in energy plants, or in one of Ireland’s four cement kilns.

The use of "worst case scenario" here means "at the very worst the current system will do X with it" but could be read as "the worst possible thing is done", which isn't the case, the worst case scenario is still pretty good (at least until all fossil fuels are eliminated from those processes).
> To me, it's a binary choice. You are either for privacy or you are not.

This is called black and white thinking and it's generally a intellectual dead end. Applying wanton black and white thinking is a sign of a mind incapable of nuance, and rich, deep thought.

Merlot: Open-source hardware tricolor wireless E-paper display
What fun that was. My friends and I did something much more innocuous in high school and earned outselves a stern talking-to: we changed the IE/Netscape home page on half- a dozen lab computers to a Geocities/Angelfire site we'd made and on which we had been experimenting with JS. Nothing sinister or malicious, but enough to cause a bit of confusion for a few students. The school's admins ran a pretty tight ship policy-wise, but it was a veritable playground for "network-curious" sorts like myself.
I can appreciate the desire to ensure criminals have some money when they get out since a lot of crime is correlated with poverty and job prospects are slim. However, you're neglecting that prosecuting and incarcerating people costs society money, which is to say that criminals owe society a debt, and in principle, criminals should be paying as much of that debt as is feasible.

That said there are multiple ways to do this. One is compelled labour the proceeds of which they'll never see, but perhaps work can go to lowering their sentence. Another can be deferred compensation, where they get a fixed stipend once out based on their work while incarcerated.

I can think of a bunch of other ways, but I'm not sure I agree that the compensation should be minimum wage. People fund the government via taxes, but criminals aren't just not paying into the system, they are actively draining it. I'm not sure garnishing wages they'd otherwise earn is in principle unjust anymore that income tax is unjust.
Fine, but it still invalidates “false facts” as a bright-line rule for algorithmically determining what is lies and misinformation, which is the entire original point that this article is a tangent off of.
