One thing to also look out for is some distros will but /tmp in RAM, and claude loves to fill that

If git used reflink / CoW when available it would make this a lot faster.

No, there not really an extension system. I kind of consider the html renderer more of an example implementation, and assume people would want to build implementations in their framework of choice, but I can totally see it would be nice for people to define their own question types and hook into the renderer / validator.

Something I've been running on- and off again in my career, especially during freelance stints is that it's been annoying to describe forms in a portable format.

If you use markup, HTML alone is not very expressive and is missing some fairly common use-cases, and the JSX snippets of existing UI frameworks aren't very portable. JSON-Schema is more expressive in terms of describing the shape of the result, but json-schema alone is usually not enough information to build a user-friendly form.

I've created a few versions of this DSL over the years but finally decided to try and take it a bit further.

My hope is that people like this and build implementations of this spec for a variety of frontend and traditional frameworks.

I know this will not cover every application's use case and it's not meant to supplant general application forms, but I especially think this will be useful for cases where you want your users to be able to create forms.

Feedback very welcome, especially if you have ideas on how to make the markup itself be more readable!

MSN Messenger was a bit after ICQ's peak

Yes you are right. With HTTP/2 responses can be sent out of order, but once they are sent down the pipe they have head of line blocking and have to arrive at that order, unlike QUIC.

Websockets don't really have an advantage here because typically websockets are implemented server-side as event based systems, and if a RPC paradigm is put on top of it has the same properties as HTTP/2 request/responses ordering. So if HTTP/2 doesn't have head of line blocking, then you can't argue that websockets do.

I was around 16 when I discovered this, and it was my first IRC client. Didn't fully get what IRC was yet. It felt like a new world opening up.

I've been meaning to dust off my black plastic intel macbook and see if it's still usable as a workstation. Go back to Snow Leopard
