Not when talking about geometry - the idea is a 4th spatial dimension.

Interesting! It's worth noting though that HTTP actually works very well for reliably downloading large immutable files. And since this proposed protocol operates over TCP, there's relatively little that can be done to…
Sorry for not being more clear, I was referring to the advertising or promotion that comes via the elite players. Take Valorant, for example. Riot Games leveraged their League of Legends user base and gave early access…
Relevancy filtering is more for network traffic optimization, it doesn't really help with cheating in most cases. In a FPS, for example, the actors the cheater most wants to know about are almost always also network…
Hmm... isn't Blizzard's main FPS title Overwatch though? Cheating seems pretty common in that game (and there are tons of forum threads where people are complaining about it).
I appreciate the feedback - I've edited the comment to hopefully do better. Thank you for taking the time!
The anti-cheat problem is long-running and complicated. If you choose not to run anti-cheat because you understand that these are opaque rootkits, good for you! That's a totally, 100% valid choice. But please keep in…
It's fun to experiment and try out ideas - kudos to the author for doing this and sharing the results with the community, I love that. As far as the results go, though, I don't see any realistic scenario where this is a…
Amit Patel has been my hero since Solar Realms Elite.
Not the OP, but the appeal of languages like JS has a lot to do with developer productivity. I write gobs of JS and Python code and the finished programs and libraries can be strongly and statically typed end-to-end. I…
We don't run node servers.
I agree with this recommendation - they work great with Wireguard. And if you're travelling, some of the features like handling captive portals are handy.

Chunked transfer encoding can be a pain, but it's a reasonable solution to several problems: when the response is too big to fit into memory, when the response size is unknown by the HTTP library, when the response size…
The HTTP 1.1 spec isn't 175 pages long just for the fun of it. :)
Agreed, and so far the replies to your question are (for me at least) deeply unsatisfying. We already had SSR back in the CGI days, and it was awesome when we moved a lot of that stuff to the client. I know this is all…
Nim uses it too. IIRC, Python's predecessor (ABC) didn't have the trailing colon but they did some experiments and found it increased readability.
...yes? Sorry, I'm not sure I understand what you're getting at. :) (funny enough, that particular scenario is actually harder to miss in Python since it often produces an error that prevents the program from running at…
Oh, I thoroughly understand the parent's point, I'm just disagreeing that it is a problem that needs to be "addressed". Most language design decisions involve tradeoffs, and for me this one has been a big positive, and…
Whitespace is semantically significant in nearly all modern programming languages, the difference is that with Python it is completely significant for both the humans and the tools - it is syntactically significant.…
