This is the guy that created bittorrent, btw. I know that was a long time ago, but he's not just some random blogger.

What's the point in learning to work with these models when a new one comes out every 2 weeks?

quite a bit of software you would need to understand the assembly. not everything is web-services.

My further comment will be buried, but its a rip on Chuck Norris facts, and was pretty ... whatever ... "geek culture". That was only proved by Chuck Norris' endorsement of Mike Huckabee back in 2007: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--EGyU57efY

I get jeff dean is a great engineer and probably had nothing to do with this, but I always thought this "googly" memeing of chuck norris was so lame.

I mean, chuck norris even did it to endorse mike huckabee. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--EGyU57efY

yes, because most everyone dreads working with javascript, which is why there is so much tech built around not dealing with it.

this article is quite good. Thanks!

thanks. I was honestly asking, because I'm trying to catch up on CSS progress and am kind of surprised at stuff it can do now.

and it never will, because IPv4 has become a defacto reputation system for the exact same reason that IPv6 was created: a limited supply. It wouldn't surprise me to see the continued balkanization of the internet that there is a particular underclass of exclusively IPv6 traffic, but its not going to take over everything because once decentralized systems are now in the hands of a few decisionmakers in the case of, say, email.

I left a different comment, but I think this is good. You're example is 3306 and has a useful breakdown. Not everyone has that port memorized by trauma, and not every mysql instance uses that port.

New tools are always welcome, and having a purpose to explain a purpose seems like a good pitch.

This is great. One of those things that just formats and does all the little niggling things you have to do sometimes. I like that it is simple, and doesn't (thank god) need npm or some other package manager.

to quote the top comment: just show a screenshot of its results, if its useful its fine, being fast is just gravy.

if you rented it or borrowed from a friend it was very very unlikely you had the manual. I don't remember how I eventually figured it out, but it's the landing instructions that I think are misleading.

people still use make for things. how many stand-alone utilities require npm?

i don't know graalvm, but I've used too much ant, buldr, gradle and maven. I'm not really convinced Graal VM would make anything better just because you are more familiar with it.

The author even says to just use what you like because that part doesn't matter.
