Egypt is trapped in mega projects death spiral

The difference is the method. Query you're saying I can use body. GET you should never use body.

The biggest win is how intermediary boxes now have concrete guidance that a specific HTTP request is both safe, idempotent, and carries a request body. Up until now none of this existed, and at best developers could use unsafe methods to carry request bodies (see GraphQL and how it uses POST for queries)

But it feels snappy.

When I was a lad, 30ms was considered the worst latency allowable for telephony unless you were dealing with satellite links, in which case you taught people to use a simple variety of radio protocol (over).

Nowadays with all our fancy crappy comms, 200+ms is considered normal. Ever noticed the lag on a Teams call?

OP is not talking ping but page load time. Depending on when you were a lad pages could take up to 30-60 second to load on a modem.

It feels snappy _compared with most sites_.

That's the point!

It feels _very_ sluggish if I try it after spending some time using a windows 98 VM, or a library catalog from 1990.

Not if you were browsing the internet of that time using a 28k8 modem.

I spin a Firecracker VM with a custom image that has all the things I need.

Firefox on mobile can install ublock

On Firefox mobile with unblock, here. Experienced nothing intrusive. It works, apparently. :)

Laws depend on having someone who wants to enforce them.

It's funny that they used AI to translate into other languages, because the Arabic cover image is just gibberish.

Oh this is hilarious, it is like they used Google Lens like method of translating (overlay the translation, you can see the text blocks). In the Dutch one, the cpu AI text just reads: ‘een’ aka ‘a’ in English

In Russian, the cover image says "Al" (with an L) instead of AI, and on the little CPU icon in the corner "AI" just got replaced with "A".

Edit: seems like it's like that in most languages lol, at least those with a latin script

It looks like a box with new text inserted over the original image

Interestingly the French is completely different.

Western beliefs? Do they include colonizing other people and taking their land and freedom?

Hmm, do you think Ghenghis Khan was a westerner in this scenario?

Being a genocidal manic is as old as humans, near as I can tell. One group was the most recent assholes, but change is inevitable.

How many users do actually visit these links?

I usually do, as a data point.

I've found it's extremely important to, because you will get some results that are already AI slop optimized to show in LLM research searches.
