"Build a universe, not a multiverse" could capture the meaning pretty well, in my opinion.

The article uses the term generated, but a more precise term could be "produced by translators". The files can't be simply regenerated. We've recently published [1] a separate post that explains the localisation process in more detail.

The hardest (or saddest) part of being on LinkedIn is not seeing cringe posts by half-strangers but seeing how people you know well in real life change their behaviour or tone drastically on LinkedIn.

This was a very powerful episode. The strongest part for me was the description of Apple's developer workflow or philosophy, where you can look through the stack all the way through. When I first joined the JVM on Linux camp after mostly being in the .NET world on Win, seeing the system all the way through was a revelation, incredibly empowering.

Andreas with Serenity not only sees the system through but can modify any part of the layer to make the abstraction of each layer just right.

A year ago, GitHub attempted to preserve a snapshot of all public repositories in permafrost in Svalbard [0]. It's hard to say whether the data stored in a public repository on GitHub is going to remain accessible. Still, as far as preservation goes, personal pages stored on GitHub at the time of taking the snapshot might be saved for many generations ahead.

Something interesting that wasn't mentioned in this article, but was mentioned in the other Ottertune blog article [0] is that significant performance improvements can be achieved with the help of open-source tools like MySQLTuner [1].

One of the details that I found really interesting is that the great firewall blocks any website that matches *torproject.org like the innocuous mentorproject.org.

The paper is also accompanied by an excellent presentation on the USENIX channel, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPwsROLZrnc.

It would be amazing if they could choose whether to show °F or °C based on the country I'm accessing the website from instead of choosing one as a default.

I think Netifi is building a somewhat similar solution [1]. As far as I understand, their connects all services via a centralised broker. However, I'm wondering whether Cloudflare Argo can fit your use-case, [2]. It's a daemon that runs next to your software and exposes it to Cloudflare which means that you can open your software to the world even though it's behind NAT.
