Let's not forget when they shipped a full page ad for a Disney movie into a browser update

After getting burnt by both the Google endorsed Xoom and the Google branded Nexus 10, I don't trust them at all when it comes to tablets.
With both, Google released good products, and then proceeded to ruin them with abhorrent changes to the software. They made the Nexus 10 dump it's tablet interface in favor of a big phone UI ffs.
They should have IPOd in 2020, like everyone else did, but they didn't. Why is anyone's guess. Greed, skeletons in the closet, or whatever, doesn't really matter, they missed the boat
FireWire was an amazing interface, and nothing has quite come as close. The ability for devices on a FireWire daisy chain to talk to each other without the computer being involved made it excellent for storage
Some sort of extensible message protocol?
Not if they have a way to strip watermarks too, as has happened with every other system like this
6E is great, but basically nothing supports it. I got a 6E capable AP from Ubiquiti, and looking at my devices table, basically nothing has ever used the 6GHz radio. My house has a wide variety of devices, many new. The only thing that's used it is my MacBook
Might wanna buy a new modem. 15 years ago was, what, DOCIS2? The new DOCIS4s could get you far faster internet
Sounds like they made a bad investment choice.
It's so good to be back. Reddit was absolutely bone headed when they threw this away
Nim is one of my favorite little languages. It's got a lot going for it, and it's a joy to write. Output binaries are tiny, even compared to zig and pure c, and especially small compared to rust and go.
Only real problems with Nim are that cross compiling is difficult (or should I say isn't solved like with cross on rust), documentation is hit and miss, and the library and community support is very small. But everything I've built in it still works extremely well, and is very easy to update
Not only that, but with toolchains like deno, it's almost enjoyable
I wrote some telegram bots in deno and it's got one of the cleanest deploy chains around, just compile to an executable for the target architecture, and SCP it over. Exec is statically linked, and so it just works
