  • 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.




  • What part of at what cost are you not getting? This is nothing with denying vaccines, there are real concern when it comes to mRNA vaccines that were simply ignored in the COVID panic. And now with all the fuzz made by COVID and the subsequent panic and mass vaccination nobody can really study or discuss the side effects properly.


  • 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?
