    Thanks for being so generous! Here's $500 from me: https://imgur.com/gallery/qGBGwXc

    Great work — the functional spin on top of Rebol's clean syntax is really nicely done! Any chance you'll be adding something like the parse function? The ability to have domain-spe…

    Over the last decade, Redis has been my go-to example of beautifully written code. Thank you for such an amazing creation @antirez, and best of luck for whatever you do next.

    Could you elaborate on the "fundamental, serious limitations" by any chance?

    In the off chance that some Rust developers are looking at this thread, I'd like to put forward a counter-proposal: 1. Use a postfix ?! instead of .await 2. Use a postfix ?? instea…

    We'll be limiting it to open source projects — but not just software ones, whether it's an open hardware project, or an open source book, it'll all be welcome.

    As someone who was a "child prodigy", people making a big deal of my age only made me feel good about myself and wanting to achieve more. Of course, this may not be a universal exp…

    Any chance the Smart Routing would be available as a TCP/UDP proxy service? It would be great to take advantage of Cloudflare's network without having to hand over your SSL keys.

    No, but it is available as part of Google's cloud services [0]. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that they offer an SLA with 99.99% availability. Even crazier is their pending m…

    Yes, that was actually the original plan. It all seemed so easy! Let developers connect their standalone Stripe accounts and have sponsors pay directly into those accounts. But thi…

    This is the exact thing that I've been working on for the last year and a half. The biggest hurdle is actually handling the flow of money. Because, unlike say Kickstarter/Patreon, …

    I wonder how much work it would be to add support for this to Raph's pure Rust CommonMark parser [0]. Pull parsing lends itself quite nicely to the AST-based output that GitHub pre…

    That's basically what App Engine Flexible [0] is. It's yet to reach General Availability, but all you have to do is define a bunch of containers and a dispatch.yaml file [1], and A…

    If anyone from GitHub reads this, it would be great if you could use Task Lists [1] within Notes, e.g. Note Title. - [ ] Some subtask. - [x] Another subtask. You could then group s…

    Congrats to everyone at CloudFlare who made this happen! Is there a list of TLDs which are supported somewhere? When I last looked (years ago), only Verisign provided registry lock…

    Great work! But is there any reason that you didn't build on top of the really nice V8 binding https://github.com/ry/v8worker instead of Duktape?

    No worries. All forgiven :) Thank you ever so much for the hard work done by yourself and the rest of the Rust developer community. It has been an absolute pleasure seeing the lang…

    That would be pretty awesome! Also, do you happen to know if your current patch is safe to apply on top of OpenSSL 1.0.2a?

    Nice work! Do you guys also have a similar implementation of ChaCha20-Poly1305 for Go? If so, any chance you could share that too?

    Does this mean that those who hacked Target could have just added the card details to their own Stripe account and waited for Stripe to update the data once the banks got around to…
