Bubbles tend to pop sometimes.

PostgreSQL is definitely a boost to performance, especially if you offload the DB to a dedicated server (depending on load, can even be a cluster)

Nevertheless, it probably has much to do with how it’s deployed and how many proxies are in front of it, and/or VPN. If you have large numbers of containers and small CPU/low memory hardware, and either running everything on one machine or have some other limitations, it’ll be slow.

Admittedly, I’m not very familiar with the codebase, but I feel Apache isn’t improving the speed either. Not exactly sure how PHP is nowadays with concurrency and async, but generally a microservice type architecture is nice because you can add more workers/instances wherever a bottleneck emerges.

Just make everything Shittier

Virtual high five! Keep it up, I’m always happy to see someone find joy and a sense of accomplishment in programming things.

Check out polymorphism and concurrency when you feel you’re solid enough on the other things. Concurrency/threading can be a bit weird to wrap your head around, but essential to build powerful things. (See Reader-/Writer problem to start)

I have no idea what any of these does. I might just aswell be unknowingly installing a keylogger or something.

This actually applies to windows GUI installers just the same. You really don’t know what you’re installing either, although you do usually give it administrator permission to make changes to the system. In some way it’s even worse, it’s “running commands” and hiding it from you.

Same, really love them, as you can wear them for hours and they cause no pressure or uncomfort. ANC is great too. I use them for work.

Depends what device you run, but Xournal++ is useful. Otherwise pdftk.

It’s my daily driver. It has incredible compatibility and very nice features, for example the rule based filter actions, header matching, which immensely boosts my workflow efficiency. Not to mention the calendars and tasks integration and the great extensibility via the plugin system.

Thunderbird is a great example of community driven awesomeness.

I’ve been burnt by my unix arrogance enough times

Same here, haha. As long as you stay away from ideas like “compiling your kernel from scratch” you’ll be fine.

Look up which distros come with drivers/documentation for your hardware (different for many MacBook versions) especially the WiFi/Bluetooth chipset.

Don’t try anything fancy, unless you have a surplus of life energy and time to waste.

2010 MacBook Pro, still runs Arch with ease (back when I set it up I had more time than I do now, would go with a less DIY-ish distro nowadays, probably something Debian based)

The only chore was to get the RTC alarm wake up working, which was a bit hacky.

1.2e-10 to 1.3e-10 range

Everyone talks about this like it wouldn’t open a massive attack surface for the mother of DDOS.

Make the attestor slow or take it out, you take down large parts of their business. I don’t know, i wouldn’t put too much stake in a platform/website that could be taken out so completely.

J’ai appris quelque chose aujourd’hui! Merci

Rust

Sorry, haven’t had rust since I use H3PO4.

Specific applications of phosphoric acid include:

• in anti-rust treatment by phosphate conversion coating or passivation
