“3 billion” devices with multiple vulnerabilities that sound like RCE via things like video playback with “fixing them requires a long chain of communication between many vendors, manufacturers and resellers” sounds like a total disaster to me. Many (most?) Android phones in use will never see an update!

Yeah, until someone looks at their “security” :D

Performance metrics generally put Rust squarely ahead of Go, but not by a lot.

10x, 4x and 3x performance difference is not “but not by a lot”, it is al lot! :D Imagine needing 1 server vs 10 servers to run same app. Same for memory.

Can people stop contradicting themselves when comparing X with Rust just to make X look less horrible, please!

This is just “telemetry”. We have that in all Windows (including server) for years now… nothing to worry. This is NOT surveillance. /s

BTW: Google does the same for Andorid (get your data dump and see for yourself) - every application start and stop is recorded, metadata from your e-mail, etc…;

NOT surveillance, this is to help optimize technology use. /s

Any form of surveillance used by any government will be used primarily for political reasons, against non-criminals. There is no such thing as Good Spyware.

Torvalds added that Rust isn’t that terrible in the end; “it’s not Perl”.

LOL

You could try destination NAT with netfilter/iptables (DNAT) and terminate TLS on your home server.

This way packets will be forwarded to the home server without beign decrypted on the VSP.

Google will just say that pages with DRM will rank higher in their search and it’s all done.

Thanks for the video link. Very interesting. This is how all computers will be built eventually. So seize the means of computation until we can…
