We've seen the start with "hydration breaks" and a 30 minute half-time.

AI is just a tool and it not even matters how you use it.

Optimizing for the last microsecond and then use Python?

Why?

A simple trade off. Guaranteed malware from microsoft, or potential attacks that you can mitigate with firewalls, airgaps or Anti-Virus software.

Maybe this is the AI layoff wave we'll see. Sorting out incompetent team members.

And what happened after Napster? Filesharing totally stopped, right?

With the chinese in the mix it wont stop ai. It probably will change Copyright.

You sound like: "Why would anyone need more than 640KB RAM?!".

In other news: water is wet. I genuinely don't understand how anyone is still pretending otherwise. Server-side rendering is so much easier to deliver in a performant way, yet it feels like it's being increasingly forgotten — or worse, actively dismissed as outdated. Out of convenience, more and more developers keep pushing logic and rendering onto the client, as if the browser were an infinitely capable runtime. The result is exactly what this article describes: bloated bundles, fragile performance, and an endless cycle of optimization that never quite sticks.

Why are "thousands" of requests noticable in any way? Webservers are so powerful nowadays.

How many requests per second do you get? I also see a lot of bot traffic but nowhere near to hit the servers significantly, and i render most stuff on the server directly.

But serving HTML is unbelievably cheap, isn't it?

How do they get overloaded? Is the website too slow? I have a quite big wiki online and barely see any impact from bots.

Future markets give traders leverage of 100x sometimes or more. Margin requirements are much lower than trading spot.

Yes, it’s really ‘weird’ that they refuse to share any details. Completely unlike AWS, for example. As if being open about issues with their own product wouldn’t be in their best interest. /s
