Let's try to generate some data to back up your experience. So, let's test the quality of your internet connection with a long test. Run the following. https://speed.cloudflare.com/ it'll graph the speed and quality of the connection of the internet and wait till it settles. ( Wi-Fi is going to inconsistent compared to a wired Ethernet connection.) Once the connection looks reasonably stable, then try calling and... - Source: Hacker News / 27 days ago

Next time you need to assess your connection's capabilities, try https://speed.cloudflare.com/ instead of speedtest.net. Much more informative. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

There are three parameters of concern with your ISP. Bandwidth, Latency (and Jitter), and Data Caps. Bandwidth is less of a concern for most people as data rates are over 500mb+ . That's enough to comfortably stream 5 concurrent 4k streams (at 20mbps). Latency and jitter will have a bigger impact on real time applications, particularly video conferencing , VOIP, gaming , and to a lesser extent video streaming... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

Https://speed.cloudflare.com/ produces more details than many other speedtest sites. Interpreting them correctly is of course another question. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

> https://speed.cloudflare.com Love this. I'm used to use speedtest.net back in the day, but this is so much better in so many ways and provides so much more data. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

Oh this would be such a good fit for my dream of serving federated backend code from web readable hosting https://webcode.run/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

This would be so amazing. In order to access most vanilla services like redis, postgres etc. You need to deploy a bridge https://github.com/zquestz/ws-tcp-proxy -- somewhat abandoned at this point but it is still running), and a big problem with the approach was the web's inability to make TCP connections. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

Yeah, you are right. I made https://webcode.run also for this reason (also hot code reload and debugging but for JavaScript computational notebooks). - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

This was why I created https://webcode.run the elimination of all tooling and a fast development loop even for backend. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

I am building a compute layer for Observablehq which enables services to brought up using nothing other than a web browser. It's a bit too soon to call it a K8s replacement but the motivation was the complexity and laggyness of bringing up services on cloud or k8s. The WEB + on demand infrastructure is the distributed replacement of K8S https://webcode.run/ WEBCode is about eliminating environments and the... - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago
