  • don’t know a lot about fastcgi, but looking it up it seems like it also keeps a persistent process running to avoid execution overhead

    More of less, the good thing about PHP + fastcgi is that it keeps a configure amount of minimum persistent processes (plus a dynamic number) to avoid execution overhead like you said… now there’s an important detail, PHP processes are generic, meaning if you’ve 50 apps hosted in your server they can all be served with just one persistent process. No need to spin up 50 processes for each app like with node/go etc.

    Supervisors shutting down containers/processes are good, but starting up is slow compared to the single PHP idle process ready to go for any app. :)



  • It’s not that is is a different ecosystem, it show shows how things can get bad very quickly. People like to say that they’ve the bridge that allows any generic IMAP/SMTP client to use their service, however what if they decide to disable the bridge? People talk a lot of shit about Microsoft and Google when it comes to email but at least those two provide email over standard protocols that can be used anywhere, not proprietary stuff. I wouldn’t be comfortable with having my email hostage to proprietary stuff like that.





  • Sure, let’s make more experimental, untested vaccines that may result in even more oncology cases and all kinds of heart conditions. What can go wrong.

    Look, I’m all for developing new stuff and progress but things need to be done the right way, not like this. Don’t you see that pharmaceutical companies used COVID as an excuse to “prove” that mRNA was safe and now nobody can every object again to mRNA vaccines?


  • Okay, I don’t have anything against vaccines, and I’m fully vaccinated against more stuff that most people because I’ve to take trips to tropical places and I live in Europe. Now, COVID and related vaccines were all about profits not about public health. We’re talking about vaccines developed in record time with experimental tech, shady statistics and govts changing their “recommendations” every week based on profits above all “now we’ve friends that sell masks then let’s force everyone to use them”.

    Here’s an example of how ridiculous this situation was: in my country a cousin of mine needed to take his tetanus vaccine and asked the public health system for it, the answer? “Great, we can place you on a waiting list of 6 months to a year because there’s no vaccines available for that now, the labs are using all their resources to make COVID vaccines”. Here’s the thing, tetanus is WAY more terminal than COVID ever was, especially when talking about people under 35 yo without any prior health complications. This doesn’t look reasonable at all.

    All the stats on COVID, vaccines, spreading of the virus etc. are very questionable at best and then we had govts signing documents saying if things went bad then the pharmaceutical wouldn’t be prosecuted. I’ve been told that the EU contracts for most of those vaccines are nowhere to be found as well.

    So yes, vaccines are important and increased our life expectancy by a lot but what happened with COVID was bullshit.
