Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

• A Russian translation of this article can be found here, contributed by Timur Demin.
• A Turkish translation can be found here, contributed by agyild.
• There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

Go vs. Scala (Akka) Concurrency

A comparison from 2 weeks using Go.

Actors vs. Functions

Akka's central principle is that there you have an ActorSystem which runs Actors. An Actor is defined as a class and it has a method to receive messages.

Install PostgreSQL 10 on Ubuntu

This is a quick guide to install PostgreSQL 10 - tested on Ubuntu 16.04 but likely can be used for Ubuntu 14.04 and 17.04 as well, with one minor modification detailed below.

(Optional) Uninstall other versions of postgres

To make life simple, remove all other versions of Postgres. Obviously not required, but again, makes life simple. If you have data in your previous version of postgres that you'd like to retain, then this is not recommended. Instead, you'll have to use pg_upgrade or pg_upgradecluster.
