why do you suppose your Chromebook will be a useless brick ?

which Chrome App(s) do you use that will cease to work in 2021 ?

no not at all.

There are javascript+html+css apps that could use the Chrome API ( https://developer.chrome.com/apps/api_index ) which allow them to do more than regular javascript+html+css web pages.

There is no compilation.

I was more concerned about his usage of 'the tech people' terms.

Like you, I think when someone saying 'Google is evil' he implies 'I think Google is evil'.

But someone saying 'back then Google was still admired by the tech people" or "Losing our support" is more ambiguous. Like if all 'tech people' or a majority of them think like him which or he represents the majority.

tl;dr: I'm fine with him saying 'Google is evil' but not with him saying 'the tech people think Google is evil'.

"back then Google was still admired by the tech people" "Losing our support"

why do you generalize 'tech people' as 'we' ?

I'm in tech and I've been for 30+ years. I still admire Google.

Sure some tech people don't like Google anymore or even never have.

But I wouldn't generalize my case nor should you generalize yours.

And it's not all or nothing: I want to believe most tech people are mature and educated enough to not treat Google as a single block, hate everything they do or love everything they do. There are nuances and shades of gray in life, as we all learn when we grow up.

In the end, what matters is the silent majority not the chatty loud ones that have a personal grudge against some big corporation.

That "Google is evil" is highly overrated and over hyped. I always question the agenda of people promoting this.

The issue is PHP-FPM (FastCGI) only and it's vulnerable from outside only with nginx.

The vast majority of PHP 7.0 installations don't use FastGCI and don't use nginx but Apache simply because people used 'apt install php' (or 'yum install php') to install it.

So imho, the impact is very limited.

you completely ignore the #1 cost: human cost to setup your vps, manage it, backups and whatnot etc. you gotta take all costs into account.

not every developer is willing to learn and spend time configuring & managing a server. that's not the same skill set.

that's not true. you can have IPv6 only in the backend and expose IPv4 only at the very frontend (like Cloudfare does the other way around).

Dual stack are not really needed and usually add complexity for few little benefits.

The main problem of IPv6 is the lack of people willing to learn it, teach it and adopt it.

Something brand new like Kubernetes should have from the start been IPv6 only , with IPv4 at the egress parts only.

so the App Mafia is supposed to host your app for free? provide the bandwidth to download it for free ? give visibility to your app thru search in the store for free ?

at some point someone gonna pay for the datacenters, the wires and all these stuff needed for software distribution.

Try running your own site on your own servers and paying for the data traffic and then do the math.

30% is ok

it's because EasyOS runs containers, it's the host. Did you read the post ?

page 5 seems not indexed. Everything on others pages can be found with Google.

you can force the site with "site:... ": https://www.google.com/search?q="metallica+only+played+2+son...

it's doesn't find page 5 with these terms but find page 6.

There is probably an issue within the page 5 itself.
