    Cool blog post. One thing I am not sure about. If access to WiFi can lead to the mentioned or other risks, then something else is probably seriously wrong in the chain.

    Please do not express your opinion as the opinion of the majority. Instead of discussing license choices, create your project and open source it as you like. Do not tell others how…

    From my point of view, for example, GPL is not "open" at all. And yet it is on the list. In my opinion, BSL is even more "open" than GPL. Feel free to have a different view.

    It is open for me to use as I please. And I don't want to destroy their business. I can understand your ideological drive, but in reality it doesn't matter until you behave unethic…

    TBH, I love BSL licenses. You can use it as you want for free, except being a competitor, and there is a high chance of a sustainable business model. (What benefit do you expect if…

    Great example! I think your example exactly points out why PBP of 0 is soo awesome in this case! You can invest $1000 immediately and get another customer in 0 months instead of 10…

    Not sure if this is accurate. I was able to initiate a chargeback process from UI as a growing startup not giving a ** to return my money.

    Oh, it looks like Cloudflare is no longer a good choice. We had very similar experience with Ionic. We tried to put our money in, but no one was interested.

    I have never seen this screen. Why don't you just click the "Keep Windows 10" button? But TBH, I wish the same from many other projects. Update python 2->3 was really painful for t…

    Not sure I agree with the author. It took me less than 3 seconds to understand the initial code, but at least 10 seconds to understand the final result, even I had the knowledge of…

    Off-topic question: What are 70 Mio. code lines for? I mean, yeah, there are some services like Uber, Uber eats, but gosh, 70 Mio.? I have worked on very sophisticated products wit…

    You should put it into one-two sexy sentences. It was too difficult to understand why do I need it.

    M$ just don't want your money. We had experienced this problem many times in Irland and German regions. Never experienced it with Hetzner or AWS.

    You already gave a great overview of issues. But inventing something totally different from what people know without any reason doesn't make any sense. Look, YugaByteDB, CockroachD…

    localStorage suffers from issues like size limits and performance (which, probably, leads to higher battery consumption).

    Although I agree that modern web apps suffers from the size already and additional 300kb doesn't hurt in this case, but one of the most popular use cases for the client DB is the o…

    Currently, it is a browser app intended to run on mobile devices. Not exactly PWA, but very similar. Later it will be, probably, packaged with capacitor.

    My use case is an offline-capable app. There was already WebSQL, but it got deprectaed.

    Key-value store would be OK, we (developers) can handle that. And in fact, we do it already. But IndexedDB is broken by design. But I agree, handle relational data is what we want.…

    Amazing! 313kb gzipped. I hope the author(s) of IndexedDB would finally understand how stupid the idea of IDB was. Are there any numbers on performance?
