screenshot of finishing with 4 strokes / 6 par (tho my locked-in daily result was 14 strokes).
The video is bouncing the ball of a wall right at the start to make it jump over the wall, water, and corner behind the start, to skip most of the track.
I bet we'd see a bunch of unexpected breakage in presumed-to-be-lower-level-than-http[s] infrastructure so that eg. your legacy IRC server goes down because it's running on rented hardware and the hosting provider's operations rely on some internal http services.
In your experience, is there a lot of contention over whether a given issue counts as a bug fix or a feature/improvement? In the article, some of the examples were saving people a few clicks in a frequent process, or updating documentation. Naively, I expect that in an environment where bug fixes get infinite priority, those wouldn't count as bugs, so they would potentially stick around forever too.
At my last job, a lot of our web services also benefited immensely from in-process caches and batching (to be fair, some of them were the cache for downstream services), and their scaling requirements pretty much dominated our budget.
I can totally see how the cgi-bin process-per-request model is viable in a lot of places, but when it isn't, the difference can be vast. I don't think we'd have benefited from the easier concurrency either, but that's probably just because it was all golang to begin with.
