Memory is only used during a request. When a request is done, you get your free memory back. When a request is dealt with faster, you get more free memory in total (or you can handle more requests).
How do you recognize an extrovert Fin?

This case seems to be quite clear a shakedown case.
I do feel though that Linux developers are quite on the other extreme with almost no litigation.
For years, even untill now, the grey area of NVidia drivers could exist. If the GPL is enforcable, those drivers should be disallowed, or be made GPL.
The case is even worse in the ARM ecosystem, where GPL drivers get copied into closed source drivers. That is really bad for users. That situation just continues on for years, with no end in sight.
I am siding more and more with the somewhat more idealistic stance of the FSF, instead of the lax 'pragmatism' of Linux, which is just a free for all.
...And... , you're on the hook.
Google is now just as much about power as companies like Microsoft, Apple and Oracle. You should not get into bed with them that easily.
This new standard will only cause confusion.
The big parties like Google are already trying to rid the world of RSS, or relegate it to a niche, since there is no advertising money in it.
There is all kinds of things wrong with XML, but not in the context or RSS Feeds. The format is simple, easy to create and easy to read. Adding a new standard will not make RSS Feeds suddenly popular, quite the opposite.
Let's unite behind RSS and the XML format.
People often complained that RSS was too difficult and only for techies. But with a simple explanation and an "Aha" moment people would enjoy it.
What I think the real reason is, is that it doesn't make the advertisers money. They want clicks and eyeballs, not RSS refreshes.
Google Chrome doesn't support RSS feeds anymore, not in the standard build. Google Reader is gone. So you can guess where the advertisers are not wanting to go...
My local newspaper just recently stopped providing RSS feeds. I quit reading it, but they probably won't care.
To me it doesn't feel like Top Gear was.
Recently someone here described the formula as: You have 3 guys, of which 2 are constantly forming a team to play on the third person. They are switching teams continuously, so each of the 3 is 2/3 of the time part of the winning team.
The cars are just dressing on the cake of this dynamics between the 3 guys.
In the new episodes they changed it to American style, probably under pressure from Amazon. Jeremy Clark plays the role of the winner, James May has the loser role. Richard Hammond is supporting for the winner. It is very much an American TV cliche.
They destroyed the dynamics that there was, and thus the show. We will see how it lasts, but it has definitely changed.
And I respect PHP very much for that focus. But as soon as you go beyond the very basics, I think the learning curve there is steeper. Rails simply has so many answers to so many questions, and it introduces those answers in a pretty progressive way. You don't even have to learn what SQL injection is if you're using the preferred query methods. You SHOULD learn what that is, but you don't have to to get started. If you don't know what SQL injection is and you use the MySQL db query functions with a string-interpolated query in PHP, well, you're going to be in trouble.
Probably he knows the difference
One for the return...
Which LInux desktop do you prefer?
Thanks for responding properly. This is my take on this situation as well.
My anecdote: I have been on dating websites. Sometimes you come accross a profile of a woman, where the flow and feeling of the text is all off. It feels really off, like "what is going on here?". Then I see that somebody listed themselves as transgender. And then I understand where it is coming from.
Not to start another discussion, but the use of language of a transgender who is now a woman, still has many male patterns .
If you've ever read a fake female profile, where you knew it was written by a man, you would know that same feeling. Something is off and odd.
