> Nginx eixsts, why do I need to learn caddy?

If you've learned to manage nginx, by all means use it, but for new users it's more like "caddy works with like 3 lines of configuration, including HTTPS, why would I learn nginx?"
Is availability not an aspect of performance?

But of course, hence why i referenced multidc transactions.
right, but this isn't theoretical. ipv6 was finalized 25 years ago and global adoption is around 1/3. There's something seriously wrong and it's not that 2/3s of the world are using Windows Me and 20+ year old devices that don't support it.

It's human and behavior driven and addressing that is a matter of packaging, process, promotion, product, presentation... all those marketing ps.
The most important thing you need, to have a chance at huge success, is to be obsessive. This guy succeeded, selling his startup for $800 million. He is obsessive.

Now he's obsessive about something else. News at 11:00.

As one of the doctors in the article says: Your maximum lifespan is pretty much programmed into your genes. Things can cause you to die earlier: a traffic accident, letting yourself be overweight, or just bad luck. What this guy is doing, is eliminating some of those early-death factors: he's staying fit, eating well, and so forth.

Doing so obsessively? That's not a life most people want to live.
I guess that's the reason why most Java programs I use cannot do proper user-facing error messages. Because it is so easy to just ignore error handling. The exception will be caught by the top-level, right? This is how almost every Java cli tool prints a stacktrace on even most trivial user errors like file not found.

Having to deal with errors and forcing the developer to do proper error handling is a good thing.
No, the minimum allocation is a /24 (for v4) or a /32 (for v6)
SpaceX puts a lot money into research and development, and build out of infrastructure for future use.

So if the company is breaking even, then its manufacturing & launch business must have good margins.

Which means, self launched rockets cost SpaceX noticeably less than their commercial pricing.

285 kg/year was the approximate per capita potato consumption around 1900 in Germany, before pasta and rice were inexpensive and convenient, and disposable income broadly high - as of 2008, it was only around 63 kg/year: https://taz.de/Das-Jahr-der-Kartoffel/!5170413/

This article also reports that Niedersachsen potato fields (large state in northern Germany) produce an average of 45,000 kg/hectare, or about 18,000 kg/acre.

It is hugely useful. I worked on implementation of law in code for 10 years and the big problem is this: there's a constant communication between software devs and law poeple. For exmaple "did you code this like that ?", "why did the system did that ?", "if I code this way, does it reflect the law precisely ?". You have to constantly trnaslate from the code base to the language of lawyers and vice versa. Doing that with regular code is no good: regular code ends up mixing law code and technical code. Making a clear separation with a dedicated language is a big plus.
You'd be wasting your time with that. Go read the bible (Computer Organization and Design by Patterson) instead.

Good point. There is no scientifically proven arguments for building modernist architecture. It is really easy to find a lot fallacy in arguments modernist architecture. For instance is it common argue that it should be easy for people in the future to be able to see what age a building has been built. Th guilt by association fallacy is also very commonly used in Europe. Hitler's architect liked columns and pilasters, if you like columns and pilaster, then you must sympathize with Hitler.

Speaking of Starlink, what piqued my interest is that Huawei Mate 60 incorporated satellite call module without being bulky. It is not yet able to do data transfer but in case they can, isnt that practically a portable starlink equivalent?

This reminds me of the recent DHH TypeScript kerfuffle. Imagine doing a port like this without static types. Every change you make you have to build, launch, look for a crash. Times like this you are so happy you built things in a more refactorable language and used a good architecture.

Alternatively, it means a ticker, metal infused glass pane... or there is a shock absorbing layer to prevent all the stress to be distributed through the glass pane. If you take some tools - e.g. multimeters, dropping them from 2m height is a rather standard test for their build quality/durability. Not saying I'd expect most phones to survive that, yet it's quite common to prefer the minimalist, throw away devices.
You can grow an ungodly amount of potatoes in a very small space if you keep burying the plants up to their tips every month or so. They just keep producing more higher and higher up.
How many satellites can be launched at once? I assume that the number of satellites per orbit will be limited and changing the orbit would take extra fuel that either the launch vehicle or the satellite has to provide.
One of the security issues with dual stack. Your attack surface is twice the size, and human error means you are more vulnerable.

Still unsure of the benefit of dual stack, but there are numerous costs.
yea I have this feeling anything I have to use a computer that isnt mine. I just dont understand how people can put up with it. The worst is people are so resistant to change (because every change is shit), they fear when I speak "wait I install extension and you wont see any ads" and see "another change that will turn to shit, I already learned to ignore the ads, I dont need no adblocking, and isnt it stealing anyways?" kinda thinking. Its sad

I'm pretty sure if this had been pointed out to Keynes he would have agreed but probably noted that it was not as easy to calculate that part.
These arguments always boil down to these two:

"Please just try to fit more than 4 billion numbers into 4 bytes" -- this is mathematically impossible.

"Just extend the address size" -- this is an entirely new protocol by the definition of IPv4, which uses fixed-size addresses.

The reason for the slow IPv6 adoption is that there was no financial or business pressure. While IPv4 is ubiquitous, nobody individually feels a need to migrate to IPv6.

E.g.: How many customers would you gain by supporting IPv6? Generally zero. That doesn't sell well internally when the network team is asking for a budget.

The IPv6 transition will be like a bankruptcy: very slowly, slowly, then all of a sudden.

The sudden bit will happen when IPv4 address will cost $1K to $10K annually. At that point, customers will be reaching those IPv4 endpoints via three layers of proxies or NAT gateways, and IPv6 will be noticeably faster, more reliable, and free.

I make my morning coffee on a Lelit espresso machine. I use a Niche zero espresso grinder. I can easily tell the difference between grind sizes a mm apart on the dial, when it comes to taste in the cup (and even with milk). The espresso machine can tell the difference too, because even a minute difference in grind size can make a significant difference in the coffee puck’s ability to withstand the water pressure.

You see, when you make espresso there’s a pretty narrow range of grind sizes that produce acceptable coffee. Too coarse, and the water gushes through the puck without building much pressure. Too fine, and the puck essentially turns into coffee cement and the machine isn’t able to squeeze out more than a drop or two of (very bitter) espresso.

Within that narrow range you can find the needle on the water pressure gauge hitting numbers anywhere between 4 and 10 bar (I’ve set my machine’s overpressure valve to 10 bar so that excess water pressure is shunted away and circulated back into the brew circuit). I find the coffee tastes best when I can hit the sweet spot between 9 and 10 bar without the OPV kicking in. This is subject to uncontrollable factors such as differences in tamping but generally occurs at a very specific grind setting that I find after dialing in a new coffee.

As for differences in flavour? It’s all about extraction. Underextraction (from failure to reach a high enough pressure) results in sour, thin coffee. Overextraction yields very dark, bitter coffee with a powdery mouth feel. Proper extraction avoids both of these problems and tastes sublime, nutty and chocolatey (with medium-dark roasts) or fruity and juicy (with lighter roasts).

There may be a lot of gadget-headery going on in the espresso world but I can confidently say that correct grind size makes an enormous difference in the quality of coffee. Whether you need a $2000 grinder to achieve that is debatable, but you absolutely will not achieve it with a $40 blade grinder (which cannot control grind sizes at all).

Vietnam doesn’t have the manpower (plus, in case of an East vs West war I’m not sure Hanoi will side with Uncle Sam), and India doesn’t have lots of things compared to the Chinese (ignoring the fact that there’s an extra ocean to navigate between any Indian coastal city and any of the two US coasts, compared to China, that is).
Fitting more than 4B numbers into 4 bytes is mathematically impossible, but building a backwards compatible and easier to integrate standard may not be.

Take USB for example. The capabilities of USB 3.1, 3.0, 2.0 is impossible to achieve for USB 1.0. So is high-speed charging.

However, the end-user experience is generally pleasant, nitpicks around some of USB-IF's specific choices aside.

Yeah, these GPUs became less appealing after the prices of 30-series GPUs have dropped. The price of SXM cards are still somewhat unbeatable though if you have a compatible server motherboard [1]. Nvidia P100s are being sold for as low as $100 each, there are similar savings for the Nvidia V100s. But yeah, a saving around $100 to $200 is not really worthwhile...

Another curious contender is the decommissioned Nvidia CMP series GPUs from miners. For example, the Nvidia CMP 170HX basically uses the same Nvidia A100 PCB with its features downsized or disabled (8 GB VRAM, halved shaders, etc). But interestingly, it seems to preserve the full 1500 GB/s memory bandwidth, making it potentially an interesting card for running memory-bound simulations.

[1] Prices are so low exactly because most people don't. SXM-to-PCIe adapters also exist which cost $100-$200 - nearly as much as you have saved. It should be trivial to reverse-engineer the pinout to make a free and open source version.
Launch way more, and I'd imagine the sweet spot for the amount of fuel each satellite gets to shift up considerably: with a launch the size of starship they can saturate the orbits reasonably reachable from that launch for decades (spares remain in higher orbits with less drag I think) and giving one satellite more fuel is cheaper than deploying two satellites with less fuel each. And achieve far more than twice the runtime, because the fuel complement in today's starlinklings is certainly quite far from 100% mass fraction. The current compromise is far quick global reach running on F9, with a generous dose of iteration.
I don't want to derail too much but this is interesting, because I recently had the opposite experience.

I hadn't spun up a webserver other than Kestrel for a long time, and was absolutely looking for the easiest solution for putting a reverse proxy in front of an API. No huge traffic requirements or low latency, seemed a perfect fit for caddy.

Then I googled to make sure that the necessary featureset was there and saw that rate limiting is a plugin that's marked WIP. What's more, there seemed to be a couple to choose from.

So I went through the certbot steps (very quick + straightforward) and wrote the short nginx config based on one page of getting started docs and was up and running.

Do you think all those houses that the Boomers currently live in will remain empty, and therefore the housing prices will fall?

If you think that, I have a lovely bridge for you.

House prices are caused by supply and demand. The population is constantly growing, Millennials, Boomers, Gen-Xs, and all. There is no way that house prices will fall to any great extent because there is always a shortage of housing. A couple of Boomers die, so what? Their places, and a lot more, are taken up by people coming into the country, or being born, every day.

And for every thousand extra people, we're going to need an extra 400 houses.

I got it to compile in Linux on x86-64, with the following tiny changes:

- Add #include <stdio.h> (for printf())

- Add #include <string.h> (for memset())

- Add "int" before the initial bare declaration of "k"

I compiled it with:

$ gcc -o donut -std=c89 donut.c -lm

Which includes:

- Specifying an old language standard to get rid of the need to say "int" before main()

- Linking the math library ("-lm") for the trig functions.

This is my personal opinion, but staying consisten for me works by making small steps. I am working on several project. One of which is actually making me money. But, yet, I am not stuck with them all the time. I make plans - I plan the small steps for the day on each of my projects and my learning, leaving time also for myself and family, and I execute. Plan + Small steps works wanders. I have time for my kid, for my wife, for the gym. These are important!

Regarding the economics study. I would suggest you to quit and do something at least you like. You will never return the time and money you spent, but you can at least stop wasting them in the future. But this is just mu opinion! Depends a lot on your life situation. In my life, I went from Electroncis engineering studies, through microcontroller programming and general programming, to entrepreneurship and finance. It wasn't aways fun and joy, but taking it small, helped. I studied/did what I needed, regardless how much fun it was.
The problem is that the transition period is not a transition period, as long as the birthrate is too low the population will continue to be age-heavy, and that will always be a problem. As for resources, Japan's resources are of the type which need people to work them (seafood, rice, other agriculture, and industry). So a population decline just makes it worse. They already have problems with rice fields, even with machinery and automation - a lot of rice fields are run by very old people at this point.
The resources just aren't there for the picking for those left, to put it that way.
SpaceX posted a Q1 2023 profit of $55 million on $1.5 billion in revenue

And the spend about $2 billion on Starship per year.

So $6 billion in, $2 billion on Starship, $4 billion in other costs.

In 2022 they launched 61 times, which is $65 million per launch on average, they charge $67 million per launch.

They got $2 billion from NASA for 2022.

In 2022 they launched 3 crewed missions, 2 for NASA and 1 private.
