I don't know if any other mods are there. I'm not there. Feel free to send me a DM if you see any spam or needs for moderators. We would do something about it, of course.

Handbrake software supports many. Perhaps AV1?

I am yet to go search about that Quart framework, this is the first time I heard of it. Yet, I am sure this is all about scalability. If you have an app with too many concurrent users, like an e-commerce for a huge brand, then it does make a significant difference to use async. Meanwhile, most projects deal with 20 concurrent users at peak time and see no performance difference, just the cost of having to debug a sophisticated tooling. So, I'd recommend to follow simpler principles. Of course, the curiosity is there and trying out cool new stuff is fun. Oh, one more thing 1 worker can serve N concurrent users easily, it's not 1:1 in practice. Depends on the code and what you're app offers. Say for example you offer generation of PDF report, if you have 100 concurrent users at peak time, but even then only 5 ask for such a report for downloading, you can get away with 2 workers on a VM with just 1 cpu easily.

There will be a new sticky soon, for the upcoming week. Allow me to suggest you to ask again there for visibility. Please provide some details, what's broken? E.g. "context menu doesn't open"

502 means the app is broken. For example, if it were Flask python, it would be raising an exception (e.g. divide by zero). If this is happening to many services or apps simultaneously, it is concerning. Turning it off sounds wise at this point.

No need of VPN. But it wouldn't harm if you wanted to have more privacy

Well, on Reddit any party can pay the API prices that are needed to scrape data. So, the paywall. I guess it's some measure... But if you are being tracked by such an actor, your threat model can't really include reddit... It's defeating the purpose. All this is discussion on air.

The audios from Michel Thomas are great! +1

Well, because they are under constant 'attack', shaming and/ or blaming. The very name is in that context. Affirming your identity then can't be seen as putting excuses (unless if it were seen from the 'attacker' perspective, of course.)

Tbh, I was just trying to point out that being grateful is possible. In the same way that you return a smile, or give some money when buying goods or services in a context of a solidarity event. For example the other day people were selling hotdogs for "pay what you want" whole raising money for refugee kids. That's how I approach this, copying/ piracy is "pay what you want" (to creators, not platforms). They made some effort to create it, yes. You are not taking anything from them. Nonetheless, you can express economically your gratitude for what they did. Like, homage to celebs.

There's affine.pro too which seems similar

iirc, MIT could have denied access to FBI in setting up a trap to whoever was the owner of such laptop. They could've set the trap themselves and dealt with academic discipline too. So, they did enable the up-scalation of the conflict.

Of course, it's all subjective at this point... either I recall incorrectly some details, or even how I unconsciously choose to see it is shaped by personal world views.
