If Quarkus is faster than Spring, why do you see no difference in throughput between them when you benchmark? Turns out you might be measuring the performance of an unrelated network proxy.

I got annoyed that "brain power" as a term isn't used with its proper unit: the watt. So I found this 2009 paper on cerebral metabolic rate of ATP in live feline brains (https://cds.ismrm.org/protected/09MProceedings/PDFfiles/03290.pdf) which measured 6.5±1.2 μmol/g/min. Using that with hand-wavy correction for anesthesia, I finally got the number I wanted:
A cat's brain power is ~0.2 W.
Sit with this for a second: If the White House had its way, all the immigrants in this country would be dead -- at least on paper. WaPo reports that the Trump administration had plans to classify 2.7 million living people — including some U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents — as dead as part of its immigration enforcement efforts. The plan reportedly fell apart after pushback from Social Security Administration employees who were tasked with implementing it.
BREAKING FINANCIAL NEWS: Reuters | SpaceX blocked from early US benchmark index entry as S&P reaffirms existing rules

Let’s Encrypt is committed to a post-quantum-safe Web PKI. The path we’re planning to take is Merkle Tree Certificates (“MTCs”), a new approach that adds post-quantum authentication to the web without sacrificing the speed and reliability that have made TLS universal. This post is about these plans and why we believe MTCs are worth pursuing as a key to a post-quantum future. An increasingly urgent problem For much of the last several years, the conversation about post-quantum cryptography has been a conversation about encryption. The reasoning was straightforward: an attacker who records encrypted traffic today might be able to decrypt it years from now once quantum computers can break the underlying math. Authentication, the part of TLS that indicates a server is who it says it is, has been a less urgent problem. A quantum computer needs to forge a signature in real time, not retroactively, so threats to authentication hinge on the existence of a cryptographically relevant quantum computer (CRQC).
