RE: https://fosstodon.org/@bsdphk/116419755925180688
Back in the 1980s when I was but a larval programmer my father, who worked on the railways, heard about #Ada, and tried to encourage me to give it a whirl, as it would surely be what everyone used in the future. There was even a compiler available for CP/M that I could have used at home. I took one look at it and decided that writing Z80 assembler was easier and therefore better. It was, of course, only easier because I already knew it. And so I have never used Ada.

@slink @jandi @overunderlay @esoteric_programmer @bsdphk awww thank you Nils! ❤️
You have no idea how grateful I am for #VarnishCache. It's a real gem, protecting my site against the Mastodon stampede. Nothing else worked before.
Bravissimo for the great work on it 🙌 -
Varnish Cache project to change its name to Vinyl Cache with after the next release (after today's 8.0.0, in March), per @bsdphk:
We have tried to negotiate with Varnish Software for many months about this issue, but their IP-Lawyers still insist that Varnish Software owns the Varnish Cache name, and at most we have being offered a strictly limited, subject to their veto, permission for the FOSS project to use the “Varnish Cache” name.
We cannot live with that: We are independent FOSS project with our own name.
So we will change the name of the project.
The new association and the new project will be named “The Vinyl Cache Project”, and this release 8.0.0, will be the last under the “Varnish Cache” name. The next release, in March will be under the new name, and will include compatibility scripts, to make the transition as smooth as possible for everybody.

@jandi thank you for letting me know about the two LEGENDS responsible for #VarnishCache (aka my favorite discovery in this 7-month self-hosting journey) 🙌✨❤️

'“We’re gonna remake our airspace,” Duffy continued. “And we’re gonna do it quickly, and we have the support of the Congress, I think right now, to say, you know what, we’re using like 1960s, World War II technology in much of the components of the airspace. We’re gonna upgrade it.”' #fearofflying @bsdphk https://www.yahoo.com/news/musk-cost-cutters-plug-air-195658811.html?guccounter=1

Deja-vu there....
When #Varnish-Cache were young, many years ago, we got a lot of reports of people reducing servers a factor of 3 to 10 because it was so much more efficient code.

Not to #bikeshed but...
In my experience asking "whom?" only works if the person you ask have a competent(-ish) threat-model, which no normal people do.
The implicit focus on intentionality also downplays the much more frequent accidental loss of control.
At least for me, it works better to ask what outcomes we are trying to avoid, and work through both the intentional, incidental and accidental scenarios that lead there.

Does anybody remember if John R. Mashey's "Software Army On the March" talk was recorded at #BSDCON 2002 ?
