You’re telling me about compiling JS, to my story that is so old… I had to check. and yes, JS existed back then. HTTP2? Wasn’t even planned. This was still when IRC communities weren’t sure if LAMP is Perl or PHP because both were equally popular ;)

you are supposed to have written the tests and to have written your code with pair programming,

I commented out the tests because they were failing, pipelines were green so I merged. Now it’s running on prod. What do you do?

Blog content was stored in memory and it was served with zero-copy to the socket, so yea, it’s way faster. It was before times of php-fpm and opcache that we’re using now. Back then things were deployed and communicated using tcp sockets (tcp to rails, django or php) or reading from a disk, when the best HDDs were 5600rpm, but rare to find on shared hosting.

Before nginx was a thing, I worked with a guy who forked apache httpd and wrote this blog in C, like, literally embedded html and css inside the server, so when he made a tpyo or was adding another post he had to recompile the source code. The performance was out of this world.

Edit: Just learnt this can be also noted as:

It compiles = it goes to prod!

To shreds

Most likely debian or debian-distroless

Why would you need multiple distros at the same time?

Not banking but transfer proxy space.

You’re all gonna have to learn to die together
