Could you link the source of your crawler library?

I've had great experiences with NameSilo.

I'd expect a move from Rust to Julia over a move to Python.

> When the Lobsters algorithm said his account was too new to post a link, I thought I was vouching for and reviewing his project link by posting it myself.
I'm pretty sure this would be considered a normal vouching & introduction of a member to the site, if those members did not then repeatedly follow up your introduction with repeated self-promotion (including bonus violation of the spirit of the unseen domain policy). As someone inviting others to Lobsters, you were trusted with a small duty to introduce them to the site properly. For most of those you invited, you were both the person initially posting the invitee's relevant unseen domain and the inviter for that invitee. It's respectful there to warn new users of site policy that you don't expect them to know.
When I invited a friend to Lobsters a few months ago so they could post their cool new project there, I made sure to educate them about the self-promotion policy so that both they could continue to use the site and so that I didn't become a problem for the site.

As a Lobsters user, I think you could have avoided those spam flags with a less click-baity title and opening line of the body. “MIT CSG Memo 137 was the first CS publication to use the term "object-oriented"” would have been a better title, since you posted after the result was discovered.
Also, Hillel Wayne already politely explained this to you! https://lobste.rs/s/ebztmj/now_we_know_which_cs_publication_...

Companies ultimately exist for the benefit of the public.

You can remix it for commercial uses going forward. Provide your source code when requested, as required by `AGPL-3.0`, or pay for a commercial license.

`Apache-2.0` allows Element the same power right now. No organization is maintaining meaningful community forks of Synapse and/or Dendrite with their own proprietary modifications on top. Element hasn't used their power to take the vast majority of their modifications private so far.
If Element decides to go proprietary, which they could already decide to do, then the community is now left to fork an `AGPL-3.0` project instead of an `Apache-2.0` project. Oh no, we'll be protected from this happening again in the future, wailing and gnashing of teeth.

You can still use <https://github.com/jlongster/absurd-sql>. <https://jlongster.com/future-sql-web>

The actual solutions here are XDG Desktop Portals or Wayland protocols, the former of which are commonly used (<https://flatpak.github.io/xdg-desktop-portal/>) and the latter of which are unstable proposals (<https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wlroots/wlr-protocols/-/blob/...>). Wayland clients don't do compositor detection like you're describing, to my knowledge.

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mstoeckl/waypipe/ is a great replacement for X remoting.

As someone who interacted with Drew back in his calculator days, he has greatly improved since then.

How far away do you expect a Wayland-powered display to be? You're currently using VNC, but I'd imagine that <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mstoeckl/waypipe/> would also work while being smoother.

Keep an eye on Key Event Receipt Infrastructure (KERI). https://keri.one/

It's an unprivileged VM, so unless you're the type to do binary analysis before running things this is just as safe as any other binary.
