AIUI, Servo has been a failure because Rust is not very good at this problem domain. Browsers have to deal with circular references and this is easily handled in C++.

Hopefully someone who knows more will explain this better

Quarterly fees are ~$15k

The domain for my work project was over $400k. Buying a gTLD would have been way cheaper, but wouldn't have managed to get us the cool domain we have.

edit: on the other hand, we're hostage to a country who could ruin everything. I guess someone above my pay grade rolled the dice

If Apple feels these rules are so just and fair and indispuitably correct, why does it go to such measures to hide them from its consumers?

Because if would harm shareholder value. You don't need a more complicated explanation about the whole situation.

you can also use access methods on structs in 1.17 so you don't need the Access.key hack with get_in

We still emulate a typewriter that communicates over telegraph in our modern *nix OSes. Good luck removing that and keeping everything built upon it

On FreeBSD there's a sysctl to control it and there's a kernel module you can configure to allow specific UIDs/GIDs to see everything so you can still allow your monitoring tools to do their job without being root, for example. It's a standard config in places I've worked

So now everyone should acquire as many IPv6 addresses as possible so they can spread their services over many /64s so if their server gets compromised and put on a blacklist somewhere they can just burn that /64 and move on to another?

A lot of sites out there are still not supporting IPv6 because ... you'll never guess, but dealing with DDoS on IPv6 where your attackers can rotate through addresses quickly is not easy. Amazon Cloudfront and Cloudflare have recently failed to block simple IPv6 attacks for us lately which would not have happened if we only ran IPv4
