docker-compose up -dOof what a pain this was! Glad it finally works and I can move on with my life!!
- Comment on It's not DNS 2 months ago:
Nope, it uses a protocol on top of UDP called QUIC. If you count underlying protocols further down the stack, obviously all of them are really old.
- Comment on It's not DNS 2 months ago:
Some ancient protocols get replaced gradually though. Look at http3 not using TCP anymore. I mean at least it’s something.

The only website on this graphic that has some actual value (apart from the fediverse of course) is youtube.

- Comment on Microsoft Edge could use a win 7 months ago:
True, I missed that winget is now preinstalled with newer windows versions. I don’t use windows a lot though, especially not for browsing the web.
- Comment on Microsoft Edge could use a win 7 months ago:
Edge is pretty good…
…for downloading Firefox.
I wouldn’t even use a proprietary browser if they’d pay me for it. Let alone a chromium based one.

Rust. The language is called Rust. And it should be used for everything!
- Comment on Introducing ONCE, a new line of software products from 37signals: Pay one time, own forever. 8 months ago:
I think there were probably times where software that got shipped actually worked. So you bought it and you could use it, no need for “maintenance”. I generally don’t think that’s the right word since software doesn’t decay on its own, so there’s nothing to “maintain” actively. Apart from compatibility of course, but if that breaks (e.g. with newer OS or hardware), it would make sense to pay for an update if you need it. Makes a lot more sense than those disgusting subscription scams that adobe is pulling off (and every other company seems to follow).

at that point just use Go or something
*Rust (obviously!)

Thanks for the insight! I think this kind of convention that once made some sense, is now exclusively harmful, but is still followed meticulously, is often called “tradition” and is one of the high speed engines that let humanity drive towards extinction.

Seriously though, why? Is there historic reasons for that? Did they have to pay extra for more letters back in the day?
