This really seems like php. I also think that mixing UI with logic is a recipe for disaster and there is already php (and several others?) for that. I suppose the creators of such a thing have a decent knowledge of compilers and related domains, knowledge which really seems wasted on a project like this.

Please do a managed Kubernetes next. I couldn't convince any of our customers to switch to Hetzner because they'd need to do "everything themselves". A managed Kubernetes instance would instantly make Hetzner an alternative for at least 75% of our customers. And honestly it's quite a cheap way to earn a bonus on your server instances.
Edit: And if you do manged Kubernetes and managed Kafka Instances the number would go up to like 95%. Oh and those Videos with der8auer? Really awesome to see, do Linus Tech Tipps or Level1Techs next!
Never heard of Level1Tech, just looked them up. Man... These people are so likeable! Great content!
The author seems to be very knowledgeable about the different aspects of programming. Whether you agree with his opinions or not, this article I think is a great starting point for learning about many interesting topics. Definitely bookmarked for later.
Ken Thompson wrote in his famous paper [1] about quines:
> If you have never done this, I urge you to try it on your own. The discovery of how to do it is a revelation that far surpasses any benefit obtained by being told how to do it
Every once in a while I give them a try but I couldn't yet create one and it frustrates me very much. Afraid of being denied that "revelation" I never dared to read his paper past that point. I'm afraid I might never read it because of my ego.

whage commented on Lisp can be “hard” real time [pdf] (2000) franz.com/services/confer... · Posted by u/ducktective
real-time - being concerned with predictable latency rather than overall throughput
symbolic processing - symbolic expressions (s-expressions) being the building blocks of lisp programs
single processor - not considering multitasking or multiprocessor concerns
I appreciate the clarification but what I didn't get is what "symbolic processing" has to do with "hard real-time" (who cares what the language looks like?) and similarly, how is "single processor" related to "hard real-time"

In every paper there comes a line at which I completely lose what they are talking about. If I'm lucky, this happens after the abstract/intro. In this case, this was it: "A real-time symbolic processing system on a single processor should have the following four features". What?

Reading through the comments here (and very much feeling the pain they describe), this idea came: Shouldn't we have a search engine that heavily favours the types of websites that we typically look for?
You know, the classic 90s style tech blogs, the plain HTML documentation pages. Ignoring websites with ads, sites with lots of baggage (fonts, scripts, whatnot), sites with lots of images. Maybe increase the ranking of pages that don't change much in their look and content as time goes by.
I don't know. Would it be useful? How would it pay for itself?
A modern economy works by running a printing press a little faster than a furnace, with the coefficient being (under honest and competent management) a good estimate of next year being better than this year by such and such, a self-fulfilling prophecy in a good way until you like, burn the planet via carbon emissions or some hard constraint like that.
And it’s a perfectly good system… under honest and competent management. It’s just easier to corrupt than systems with much lower potential (which is the distance between gold bug and ignorant, those folks have a point, they just rarely make it).
This is where all the 1971 stuff comes in: no rich person does anything but advantage their less-capable kid or lover or whatever unless someone is pointing a gun at them. (e.g. Altman has a job let alone unfettered power). The gold standard has a lower maximum potential risk to the extent you can stop there being a de Beers of gold. You likewise accept 50 years from the transistor to a computer in your house even if you’re fucking loaded.
The unanswered question is: can we get competent and honest leadership (after a fashion) back without the bloodshed it has required 100% of the time before?
A lot of us hope so but don’t have an answer just yet, and the clock is ticking.
