> How do you protect yourself ?

As a "end-user" one of the most effective way is to either disable js, which isn't the most practical thing for most of us. You can also use ublock-origin, it doesn't only block ads! You can also throw a lying-DNS in the chain, either by using something like Quad9 or a local resolver with appropriate blocklists (think of unbound or for a more user-friendly solution piehole)

Also an anti-virus can help detect the usual stealer that will be dropped by these FakeCaptcha/ClickFix attack, but they are also easily bypassed, that's why you need multiple layers of protection : each of them can and will fail


Appart from the fact that you find that Python wastes too much memory, what is your point ? I think that any person choosing Django knows that Python by nature will not be the most efficient language. Apart from that Django is battle-tested and can help bring a stable "product" quite quickly.


if "2-3 requests per second" per author is what you wanna do on $10 server go ahead". My server does 100 RPS on $16 instance

neither you are saving any time, nor money.

this is a myth, you'll not save anytime. Only way you can save time is if you've experience in this but same is true if you write your app from scratch in Go from your learned patterns.


> if "2-3 requests per second" per author is what you wanna do on $10 server go ahead

That's not a Django limit and there's something going on with the authors setup. 100 RPS on a $16 instance would be easily doable with Django too.

> neither you are saving any time, nor money.

How do you know? I'm pretty sure I can set up the same webapp in Django much faster than in go, so I'm saving both.

Why do you think all the built in stuff in Django does not save time? Any argument for that?


I might be wrong since it has been a long time since i used WSL, but i think that WSL2 uses 9P for mounting between the VM and the host.


It is an extreme point of view, it's just that far right is booming everywhere.


Don't ever joke or trick your kids, they might develop a sense of humor


One thing is letting them develop a sense of humor; another thing is lying to them when they're clearly not able to distinguish between a lie and the truth.


I've pondered on this my whole adult life. Are we doing kids wrong with things like Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, fairy tales, tall tales, etc.? I think not. I think kids come up with their own childish and wrong explanations for things on their own, whether or not other kids, parents, relatives tell them the world was black and white until the late 1950's or that Santa delivers presents down the chimney. Part of growing up is learning to question those childhood ideas and beliefs (misunderstandings) and move past them.

And really, it's something that shouldn't stop with childhood beliefs. There are a lot problems we have as adults because of stories we have been told and stories we tell ourselves that are not true.


> Part of growing up is learning to question those childhood ideas and beliefs (misunderstandings) and move past them.

Yeah, Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy were all a sort of mini rite-of-passage when I was a kid, with everyone figuring it out at different times. Made us feel a little more grown up, especially among other kids who hadn't figured it out yet. And for some reason I don't remember us spoiling it for them - instead we were in on the secret to make the holiday more fun.


Despite the downvotes, I'm with you in this hill. Kids are gullible because they instinctively trust adults, especially their parents. It's fine to prank them and teach them afterwards how not to be as credulous, it helps their growth. It's bad to abuse their trust for fun, specially long-term falsehoods. It stalls their growth.

I find that Gnome opiniated workflow can easily get in my way. KDE feels more natural and it really grew on me after using it for quite some times.


AFAIK the top of UPS trucks are mainly translucent just to allow light to shine through, so that you don't have to light up the cargo part of the truck. The cooling part doesn't seems too effective.
