async doesn't decrease the amount of CPU cycles needed to do work, in any case it only increases it.

In my experience most people creating CRUD websites with Django will hit a CPU bottleneck.

Yes. If you can afford the CPU power, by all means go with Python. Otherwise just don't.

Instagram can afford it so it works fine for them. Reddit can't, so their site is always slow or down.

Nice clickbait. A database from a B2C provider, not personal texts from a telco.

Well I definitely don't want to see something like this in my feed, so thanks.

What makes you think those "entitled pseudo devs" as you call them charged the client for a premium version? You're making an assumption too many.

"Riseup provides online communication tools for people and groups working on liberatory social change." Does this sound neutral to you? Have you seen the half-red, half-black star which they use as a logo?

I never change wallpapers... who cares. I mean, you always have a window covering it.

This is an advertisement for the Cliqz search engine. Let's remember that Cliqz is the advertising company that the Mozilla Corporation sent our private history browsing to back in the day:

Yes, I'm really looking forward to an inferior, super-censored version of Google (hate speech laws, anti-piracy laws, right to be forgotten laws, etc) paid with my taxes.

Every time someone says "I think the EU is overreaching here" the response always is "the EU literally has no power at all"

Actually you might be right: it's really Germany and France pulling the strings here.

Problem is when you have a shitty language like Python that does almost no optimisations so you're forced to write "clever" code if you want it to run reasonably fast.

Seems like the actual name is GNUnet, I don't know why this title of the submission but I guess it mirrors the logo... bad choice

Pretty sure someone like Putin knows how to pull the strings without actually being the president of anything.

TFA:

SRLabs didn't find an issue in the RCS standard itself, but rather how it is being implemented by different telecos

The first step to solving a problem is recognising there is one. Who knows, perhaps we will come up with something that's better than democracy one day. It's good to explore alternatives.

The fact that there are no alternatives to something doesn't make it good.

Funny to hear that when we are comparing it to San Francisco. (Not trying to start a flame, I found this to be legitimately funny.)

Me too, it tries to redirect me through "guce.advertising.com" because I have enabled the list "Peter Lowe’s Ad and tracking server list".

You can register a .org domain no matter what purpose you give to it. Scammers and phishers have always been able to buy .org domains.

Intelligence is a sliding scale and, until someone proves us wrong, we are the most intelligent life form on this planet.

Emotional... well that's something else.

What exactly are Zuck's options in this situation?

If anything this shows he's right: look at what happens when you have no freedom of speech.

The city seems super clean, but mainly because low paid workers clean the city really often.

As opposed to, say, cleaners in the West, which are paid more than engineers,

You like to live in a place with crime, there's plenty of places to choose from. People should also have the right to live in a place where they won't mug you or rape you.

I was thinking about that. Putting a microsun in your peripheral vision? Can't that mess with your eyes in the long run?

They could create an HDMI condom so you can't have network connectivity over HDMI. Similar to USB condoms.

Also... what if they put a 5G SIM card inside the telly? Now that would suck.

Try sharex

lol @ My People getting removed. It was added not so long ago and it was displayed so prominently (in the taskbar of the default install) and at the same time so seemingly stupid and useless that I was wondering if its inclusion was the result of a manager sucking off the right executive or something.

The author is not naive. He is most likely malicious.
