  • Usually that just means the server as a whole is slow, but your not logged in requests are being served from a cache.

    Basically, a not logged in request can be answered with the same response for everyone, so the server generates the response once and then saves it to use over and over again. But, when you’re logged in the response is going to be slightly different for everyone. So the server has to go through the whole process of generating the page from scratch for your exact version of it.





  • Ditto all of this.

    There are no good decently priced domain registrars at the moment. Even porkbun is just a cloudflare reseller now. The only downside of going with cloudflare is that don’t let you use your own nameservers (at least that was true the last time I checked a few years ago), but if you don’t already know that you want that, you probably don’t need it.







  • I just pulled my Bangle.js 2 back out to play with making a better reminder system for myself. It works better than any of the other open source watches I’ve had with my GrapheneOS phone. The hardware isn’t open source as far as I know, but their mobile app (fork of gadget bridge) is, as are all the apps that run on the watch, and (I think?) the watch OS.


  • Check your state or country’s laws, you might not even need the contract amended. In the state that I live in any contract clause that tries to prevent you from doing any work entirely on your own time with entirely your own materials is explicitly unenforceable.

    Plus if it’s just a small open source library (assuming your employer is sane) it’d be a waste of money for them to even ask a lawyer to write a letter to you, because why would anyone care.

    If you really care about getting it right, you can find a local employment attorney and have them explain your local laws and edit and/or negotiate your contract for you. I did that once, but I felt like it was probably a waste of the $900 I paid. (I mean, it definitely was a waste in that case because that job was a nightmare and it only lasted 2 months, lol.)
