Nevertheless we have/had it (for the other way around though): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Register_(keyword)

{Less of personal experience but more of a anecdotal observation} I see the same pattern in hiring. Those who know DSA, build systems that cost less overal.

So maybe it's better not to throw DSA right out out the window, but also not stick to either ends of the spectrum?

So far I've been happy. I hope I'll stay happy.

{And if I'm getting what you said correctly} What you described, is similar to how I organize my drawers in my room. Everything is visible at once, but navigating them usually takes 2 or 3 steps. Without this visual map I'm completely lost.

Only if I could somehow mix `if` & `set -e`in a readable way... I wanted it to only capture errors of explicit `return 1` from bash functions, not from commands within those bash functions. But I guess I'm doing too much* of the job in bash now and it's getting messy.

But it doesn't need to be that hopeless. Learning is a skill and schools can help each individual find the ways working best for them. Starting by not packing gazillion number of people in a class.

But yes, the banking and streaming apps too (regardless of their existence being good or bad or even justified) are yet another nail on that coffin.

Then came Android. The freedom to sideload any `.apk` on any device was magical. And now we've come full circle.

Except that Symbian wasn't source-available, so there was a bigger hope for a successful rebelion.

Then half a decade shows that point is not relevant or, the overthrowing is not the point at all.

I too wished the wolrd was that simple. But there are dictatorships, who kill, slaughter, coerce, ... and also all the international affairs from which those people are kept an outsider with zero say by the said government. I don't think we can reduce it to "it's people's fault".

Later I made a more elaborate version where it implemented its own HTTP and SOCKS4/5 proxy servers; I think you won't like it :D I wrote it in Java using Netty more than a decade ago, and published to Github when I relocated. Using Java I could run it directly as an android app or on a PC more easily.

This is the project: https://github.com/hkoosha/massrelay

Using Netty's vocabulary: If you add one extra HTTP handler to the pipeline, you get what I initially implemented in various forms:

- An HTTP handler that reads a header, say `Cache-Control: max-age=N` where N is the rotN to rotate bytes. - Next handler that starts rotating traffic bytes with the given `N`

For favicon-as-packet, my implementation was again with massrelay project but I forgot all the details. It shouldn't be hard: Netty keeps track of the connection state (packet number, etc...) and the handlers wrap/unwrap the traffic within favicon as transferred within HTTP channel.

Netty is a beautiful framework. I see you made your warps project in go, so the concepts might make more time to implement if you want to translate directly to a go project; Or you can just forget about massrelay and implement within your go project from scratch the way it makes sense, since the idea is pretty itself simple.

(That being said, I think GWF has advanced a lot, that's why something proper like v2ray works better now).
