Tim Berners-Lee tweets that 'This is for everyone' at the 2012 Olympic Games opening ceremony using the NeXT computer he used to build the first browser and web server. The difference in weight between the two architectures is interesting, but what we should focus on is the per interaction loop. Today's web architecture debates (e.g.

These design principles led us to client-side load-balancing, and the 2012 Christmas Eve outage solidified this decision even further. In order for a service to talk to another, it needs to know two things: the name of the destination service, and whether or not the traffic should be secure.

Nonetheless, we found a number of limitations that could not satisfy our requirements e.g. stalling the processing of log events until a dump is complete, missing ability to trigger dumps on demand, or implementations that block write traffic by using table locks. Blocking write traffic by locking tables. DBLog High Level Architecture.

The cheapest (high volume) Androids perform like 2012/2013 iPhones, respectively. If those specs sound eerily familiar, it's perhaps because they're identical to 2016's $200USD Moto G4 , all the way down to the 2011-vintage 28nm SoC process node used to fab the chip's anemic, 2012-vintage A53 cores.

Meanwhile, on Android, the #2 and #3 sources of web traffic do not respect browser choice. On Android today and early iOS versions, WebViews allow embedders to observe and modify all network traffic (regardless of encryption). From at least 2012, Apple has deigned to allow "competing browsers" in its App Store.
