For reference I have over a decade of JavaScript experience in industry and my async Rust rewrite of a large JS project was *more* concise then the heavily refactored and polished …

Very true. I'm checks cloc 14,000 lines into a personal project and I have yet to feel any need to use `dyn` (virtual dispatching for non-Rust folks).

I really hope they change the name. Citizenlab.ca is quite well established and doing important work.

Yeah, dynamic DNS but for an IPV6 address was what I was meaning. Very interesting.

Wow, am I getting this right? It handles NAT traversal for you behind the IPV6 address for free??

Sure, right now I'm using a nodejs WebRTC datachannels implementation but there's an up and coming rust implementation which I'm quite excited to try: - NodeJS DataChannels: https:…

I tunnel everything through webRTC. It's a bit exotic but it gets you a direct bidirectional data connection to the self hosted device. You can put all users' self hosted content t…

I look forward to the day everyone can have IPV6. For now many of us still have to deal with NAT sadly - especially if we're open sourcing our software for users to deploy on any n…

Hello fellow 3D print curmudgeon, The Makerbot Automated Build Platform was terrible in many ways so an eternity ago I forked ReplicatorG and got it printing continuously from a qu…

Ok, 3rd edit. The promises are awaited in sequence but since they are both started before the first await they are run in parallel. Your question about Rust futures makes a ton mor…

Hey @varbhat, I think perhaps the downvotes are due to some AFAIK incorrect assertions in your comment. Rust allocations are I believe closer to C then C++ and Linus has already su…

I could be wrong but I interpreted the down votes as about incorrectly equating of Rust and C++ allocations. There are a few replies that address this better then I can (I'm limite…

I expect that will execute sequentially though as opposed to the solution above it.

I'm in a similar boat with regards to launching a new, unknown product in the snap store. As an interim solution I'm planning to ask users to do use the beta flag: `snap install my…

Very cool to see more people experimenting in this area. I've similarly implemented GraphQL over WebRTC for https://tegapp.io/ and had great initial success 3D printing over data c…

I'm always interested in feedback. Sounds worth it even for that tbh. Cheers!

Hi Patrick, I've been prototyping end-to-end encrypted 3D printing over webRTC. Would decentralizing remote 3D printing fall under the banner of fixing the internet?

As someone newer to Rust who has been using error-chain because it was what I found at the time I'd be curious to hear what your preferred solution to errors in modern rust is.

Just to note that the session can still be thoroughly hijacked through malicious javascript on a page protected by HTTPOnly cookies in that the malicious code can make AJAX request…

So that is similar to an XSS in that it gains you the ability to inject arbitrary JS in to the page. That scenario is covered in the article with as I understood it the TL;DR being…

Could you explain your reasoning behind the two tokens approach? I'm guessing the HTTPOnly cookie is there to prevent token stealing (low risk as described in the article) and add …

Not terribly related but I am starting to see this as a pattern on the internet: When I bring up the latest and greatest (eg. Flow) it doesn't actually work on Windows because Wind…

Yup, I was definitely wrong on that one. Sorry about that. Thank you for correcting me.

Personally, I'm more excited about Flow because it introduces a modern type system into ES6/ESNext without me having to sacrifice Babel. With regards to types: TypeScript has only …
