He's optimizing for embedded no-std situation. These things do matter in constrained environments.

Are you really living your life walking around thinking about the next assailant?! Must be terrifying.

or being... punkted?

WebSockets over TCP is probably always going to cause problems for streaming media. WebRTC over UDP is one choice for lossy situations. Media over Quic might be another (is the fut…

I wouldn't define it as Sans-IO if you take an IO argument and block/wait on reading/writing, whether that be via threads or an event loop. Sans-IO the IO is _outside_ completely. …

> ...allows it to carry current with zero resistance at 3.5 Kelvin (about -453 degrees Fahrenheit) Seems to me this is a problem.

Ok, pipelining as in using the fact that the socket is bidirectional, so you queue up the next request before the previous response has arrived? Sounds a bit dodgy, since any respo…

I assume with HTTP/1.1 this would be less useful, since each synchronized request would require another socket, thus hitting potential firewalls limiting SYN/SYN-ACK rate and/or co…

One thing I toyed with, but didn't get very far, was to encode the HTTP/1.1 protocol as a Sans-IO state machine with .await points for the IO, but rather than the IO registering Wa…

This style of reporting is so irritating. Surrounding facts and statistics in a heart felt drama of suffering and human angle. Of course I feel for Sonja Bingham, but if I'm trying…

Call me old fashioned, but I prefer it when web pages open in a web browser and don't pretend to be native apps.

For me the A380 is the most comfortable. I'm slightly scared of flying, and turbulence making the entire plane jump around makes it that much worse. I'm only speculating, but I thi…

To protect myself or my company, what about a pihole (or similar) that rejects any TLS connection attempted with certs signed by these root CA?

My favorite is the detached upperclass parents who didn't notice their child not coming home from school: https://youtu.be/sydPKgC_Or4?t=1137

I love the TV show also. It's just so surreal and dark.

Didn't the Victorians (and people before that) rewrite Shakespear all the time to fit the current vibe? Roald Dahl also changed his own books so they would stay current.
