i am glad my shitposting was educational

though tbh you’re unlikely to ever need this knowledge unless you’re heavily into functional programming or golfing or coding interviews or other esoteric arts

tail call optimization wants to know your location

brb deploying each bin from coreutils as a separate aws lambda function

quantum services

take your source code and put each character in its own docker container

this gives you the absolute peak of scalability and agility as every quantum of your application is decoupled from the others and can be deployed or scaled independently

implementing, operating and debugging this architecture is left as an exercise for the reader

that will be $250,000 kthx

APL

at least all those state actors will have to fight it out to control my system

and i have an excuse for poor application performance

oh such hope

in a week IntegerThatTracksOneThingForOnePurpose will be an object tracking 30% of the game state and mutated in 15 places without ever being renamed

I’m with HE on this one. KF is absolutely against their ToS, and if the various middle providers between HE and KF aren’t going to step in, they’re within their rights to drop that traffic.

At this level the Internet is still somewhat decentralized. KF can continue to find other hosts and ISPs that condone their horror, and said providers and peers have the right to drop them for being terrible. They could register their own ASN, broadcast routes, and other providers could still refuse to peer with them. I think this is good, actually.

but what about The Slippery Slope? next conservatives will be making ISPs take down vulnerable minorities! shouldn’t legislation be handling this?

The conservative folks are already attacking LGBTQ+ and any other minorities they want via legislation. Why would you think this is a good argument?
