My hot take: Vi, make and C would have gone the way of COBOL a long time ago if it wasn’t for a lot of programmers thinking “my tools are more difficult to use, hence I’m a better programmer”.
Regarding the IP address, how are they going to get it? I assumed that servers wouldn’t pass them along to other nodes, isn’t that the case?
Look up the Everburn Blade in Baldur’s Gate 3.
I run my own Synapse server with bridges to WhatsApp and Telegram, along with a few other services, using Yunohost. I haven’t observed any huge resource usage, and I like the centralized management/update. One possible downside is that you won’t get the latest versions immediately, the Yunohost maintainers take time to test those. I prefer the stability that gives me but if you want to be on the edge a docker setup will be better.
That sounds very interesting, do you remember the name or the author?
