This post touches on a realisation I made a while ago, just how far you can get with the guarantees and trade-offs of object storage.
What actually _needs_ to be in the database? I've never gone as far as building a job queue on top of object storage, but have been involved in building surprisingly consistent and reliable systems with object storage.
UK citizen and 23andMe customer here. How likely is the sale of UK/EU customer data, or is it worth submitting a GDPR deletion request anyway? Get my data deleted before it's sold.
I was recently in hospital with not-so-great WiFi.
With the mobile app, I would often notice Spotify loading album artwork, lyris, artist information and even video before playing the music. It's network prioritisation is deeply disconnected from the users wants.
I remember when Spotify heavily optimised to play music in the quickest possible time. Enshittification indeed.
Why is silently patching considered a "no-no by the infosec community"?
If your product's automatic update functionality can reach most users within the responsible disclosure window, that sounds like a net positive? We still learn about the vulnerability but limits the potential fallout of the disclosure.
I'm very much in-favour of the private vulnerability research and responsible disclosure, but the "no silently patching vulnerabilities" sounds more like wanting to own the press to me than actually wanting to improve people's security.
The ICO has always been a bit of a wet blanket. Never really uses its powers effectively. From pathetic fines to putting out press releases about raids before they happen. £140k is just the cost of doing business with 79 million spam emails and 1 million spam texts.
I don't like this. Is there a reason for using a stringified method prefix?
I'd prefer the type safety of verb-specific methods (i.e. mux.Get, mux.Post etc) than magic strings validated at run time. Additionally editors can autocomplete/intellisense methods.
I'm based in the UK and have a passive interest in amateur radio. If I had to guess, it isn't outright forbidden, just a licensed activity. Maybe the license isn't easy to get or widely granted?

I bought a Dyson V7, and the battery life even from new is atrocious. On a full charge, unable to cover my very modest London flat, and of course, it cannot be used while charging.
I even fitted a larger aftermarket battery. Still awkward to use. Eventually I gave up, and bought a corded Henry from Numatic.
I cannot recommend a cordless Dyson for anything except light dust busting.
Got lucky and got one before the prices of webcams went crazy due to pandemic demand. Think they are back to around ~£60 now.
It just works. Plugged it in, picked up within macOS without a problem, immediately usable in Google Meet. Picture is fine, audio is fine. No complaints.

I have no reason to believe your review site is a shill for another company, but I have no reason not to believe that either. It was recently revealed that Kape Technologies, a former malware distributor and now owner of PrivateInternetAccess and ExpressVPN, are doing this.
The first step would be clearly identifying ownership and benefactors.
