If you want lots of differently styled templates, template management and editing/styling capabilites in word or excel (ie. you can just ask your customer/employer/.. to make an example document), I can really recommend Carbone [0]. I've been a happy customer for a few years now. Extra advantage is also that it also offers you excel outout generation as well, which is also often a requirement in applications. They have a SaaS offering as well if you'd like. They are open source though, so you can easily run a docker container!

Saying the internet is not a place for children is like saying the street is not for children. Full of drug dealers, cars and danger!

Yet learning how to cross the street is an essential skill in life. They are also filled with flowers, pathways to playgrounds and much more. And that's why children are not forbidden on the streets.

My point being: let's educate instead of regulate. "Regulating the children" is silly and countereffective.

Are you going to drop off your children at the bar and let them mingle? The internet is filled with huge variety of adult personalities and intentions, some of which are harmful & malicious, or just plain brain numbing.

We do have laws to restrict the cars (speed limits) and drug dealers.

Is it the car that is speeding or the driver speeding it? Can the car or the road be taken to court?

Is it the knife that kills or person doing the stabbing? Or the knife maker? Can the knife be taken to court?

Is it $website allowing the children on it or the parents allowing them? Can the parents be taken to court?

I genuinely take the effort to write em dashes quite often, certainly in formal documents or publications. So for me that's not a tell-tale sign of AI usage. Your analysis of the pacing of the article on the other hand — spot on.

If you look at their lab [0], it seems his NAS is separate from his kubernetes nodes. If he hasn't tuned his networking and NAS to the maximum, network storage may in fact add a LOT of delay on IOPS. Could be the difference between fractions of a millisecond vs actual milliseconds. If your DB load is mostly random reads this can really harm performance. Just hypothesizing here though, since it is not clear whether his DB storage is actually done on the NAS.

Sorry but if he’s using a setup that’s 20x worse than a regular laptop then I’m not really interested in his setup.

To be fair, I asked the question and you found the answer - lol, my bad.

Yes I agree using a nas that adds latency would reduce the TPS and explain his results. “Littles law”

Wouldn't recommend applying this _everywhere_; the `body *` selector may have a significant performance impact on some pages.

Not any more. All modern browser engines read right to left.

If you use HDR 4k or even 5k screens and are looking for a decent framerate, the maximum cable length is quite short (on the order of 3m for an UHBR10 DP40).

There exist solutions for that with active cables or optical cables, but that quickly gets expensive and complicated.

Yes, the article is indeed a simplification. Google fonts also checks for font format (eg woff2, ttf, otf...) compatibility based on user agent and changes the files served depending on your browser.

Or your server can cache the compressed content (since it is a static page anyway).

Reminds me of Zeno's paradox. Do you have a terminating condition? Or just a fixed number of iterations?

To websites that talk about declining quality and then return a 403 for tor users: sweep your own front door first please! I have the luck to be able to circumvent via a residential IP, but users from oppressive regimes may be less fortunate.
