what about checked exceptions (Java)?

Isn't JS the same? But seems like people tend to make a lot of exception types in Java with inheritance, which I think is overkill.

Typically I'll only have a couple of exception types that my own code throws, like user error vs system error. If I want more detail than that, it goes into the exception payload rather than defining many different types of exceptions.

But JS has TS

But Python is readable, it is the most readable language I've seen.

There is a reason why it is used nowadays as the first language in schools.

Assuming your editor is using tabs as spaces and preserving whitespace appropriately, for varying definitions of "readable".

I think both are readable

Unfortunately, TIL that Linux doesn't use DNSv6 if DNSv4 is available ;(

That seems to be about resolved, part of systemd, not Linux?

it's resolved in the sense of "won't fix".

systemd is part of Linux Distros?

I didn't say it was resolved, I said it's about a piece of software which is called "resolved" which is one of many programs belonging to "systemd". It's a program which handles DHCP and DNS I believe.

And systemd is part of some Linux distros, yes. But not all. And Linux, the kernel, is agnostic towards IPv4 vs. IPv6 as far as I know.

So saying "Linux prefers IPv4 DNS" and linking to a github issue about "resolved" doesn't make much sense.

assumptions

They're building all the software on a single server, and at best their fallback is a 12 year old server they might be able to put back in production. I'm not making any unreasonable assumptions, and they're not being forthcoming with any reassuring details.

for my life, I haven't found ads useful at all, so I block them

why do you put Matrix as PC-first?

Worst case you need to self host

Great when it works. Too many senders will only deliver to widely used hosts, and silently fail for anything outside their tiny allowlist.

Note that I'm not even talking about trying to send email FROM a self-hosted account, but trying to get someone else to send email TO such an account.

Do you know Cinny?

would XMPP 2.0 still be compatible with XMPP?

Sure, just standardise a set of XEP’s and ensure federation has some strictness in which XEP’s are used.
