I feel like the use case for it has really shrunk over the past 10 years.

When it comes databases I most commonly hear customers split two needs/wants. 1) data integrity (ACID). 2) Speed.

When it comes to data integrity the obvious choice is to go with a SQL database like Postgres. When it comes to speed the obvious choice is go with a memory db like Redis. Mongo sits awkwardly in the middle where it isn't ACID compliant, and it isn't a memory db so can't outperform Redis.

Another factor is that a lot of things have migrated to cloud managed db's, so if you need a document store, and are going to use a cloud managed db, then something like DynomoDB makes a lot of sense.

EDIT: Apparently Mongo added support of multi-document ACID transactions back in 2018 https://www.mongodb.com/blog/post/mongodb-multi-document-aci... . Who knew? Not sure why but when I think of a database that needs to be ACID, mongo isn't even on the list for me. Seems like just a misconception/myth on my part though.

What's the problem with cards that been used for mining? People say that they are in worse state than other second-hand cards, but I'm not sure that's true. Most if not everyone I know who uses GPUs for mining undervolt the cards as it's more profitable, while everyone I know who is a gamer run their cards overclocked.

So in theory (but someone please correct me if I'm wrong), with that in mind, you should prefer cards that have been used for mining and undervolted, rather than cards from gamers that have been overclocked.
I am still slowly working on reverse engineering an MMO. I have client source, but no server source (it was lost to time), so I am building a new server.

My current problem is I have concurrency working, but there is a aspect to movement that I have little information on, and the client isn't informative enough to help. So I am kinda stuck. I plan to do some manual testing of just fiddling with a value and see what happens. Its fun, but very demoralizing at the same time to see multiple people logged in, but their characters jumping around and not properly being moved around on other people's screens.

I also don't want to make any changes to client code, because that's our only source of truth to work with.

Any suggestions of what to offer instead of email? For instance, it's definitely more decentralized than push notifications.

Every post that gets sent through email also has a permalink on the site. So, you can write it once - then share it across any channels (including social media).

It's interesting because if you watch one of the interviews with Azov members, this is how they see themselves, as well. They adopt the Nazi aesthetic and ideology not because a hatred of Jews, but a hatred of Russians, and rejection of Russian culture. They look at the battle of Stalingrad and say 1 million wasn't nearly enough, and call modern Russia a communist state. It's really wild to hear.

What exactly makes this privacy first?
Same. Just eating one proper meal with food that doesn't instantly metabolize sometime after noon. Occasionally some low-calorie-vegetable-only snack before sleep. And switching anything bread-like out, a bunch of nice baked potatoes keeps hunger out longer than some bread.

I tried various stuff but the common advice of "5 small meals across the day" just made me feel like some cow that constantly have to eat something and it was bother to manage, all while I was getting hungry quickly. Took a long while to switch but if I'm not trying to drop weight but "just" keep it steady I can eat big, nice, tasty meal once a day then don't touch food for next 24 hours without much hunger bothering me.

I stopped with caffeine because I was drinking it only at work and I often had headaches on Sunday, till I eventually figured out I will get headache from too much coffeine exactly 2 days after i stopped drinking it.

Didn't even drank it for the stimulation, just that I like coffee and work had expresso machine and I didn't... took like 2 weeks for me to stop being sleepy in the morning but wasn't that hard.

Social safety nets are one thing. But in those countries don't fool yourself capital still breeds capital. Also the U.S. does have social safety nets. In fact the largest source of government spending is on them. I'm not saying we don't need more, but we can't dismiss what does exist.
I don't particularly like Craigslist's UI, but I still prefer it to other online marketplaces because it's fast and simple.

Similarly, I still use old.reddit and will continue to do so until they force that new monstrosity on me.

It's not just Netflix.

There are over 20 streaming services in the US alone, and while some of them are tied to your cable providers, the grand majority have some content that is exclusively available to them, each with their own fee schedule and varying amount of advertisements or combo deals required to view the shows you would like to see.
I don't think you fully grasp what the slope is sliding to. There are enough token anecdotes of companies doing background checks on social media, and will actively flag individuals for having zero presence. We also have social credit score horror stories.

Your answer doesn't work anymore when lack of participation is considered wrong. We should be blocking that instead of assuming things will just work out forever as long as individuals guard their identity. Again, this goes beyond just standing up against peer pressure.
Sometimes it can reboot 50+ times in a row. Each box has 12 gpus, so if I reset the tuning for the box, it can take a while to find the optimal settings because the voltage/clock tuning steps are very granular.

Again, this isn't an actual issue and I have the data to prove it.

ASIC is "application-specific integrated circuit". A custom IC design for some task. There won't be anything after except maybe better and more miniaturized designs, at least until computers and digital logic are built from something other than electronics.
Hence the wondering part, I personally have never been in such a structure, so I don't have first hand experience.

This is the problem with unfalsifiable claims. Why is that "without a doubt"?

I can formulate a just as intuitive (and just as baseless) claim: less significant criminal enterprises get caught less, since they fail the "significance" test.

> That's normal for MSRP though. If 50 websites sold a brand, and that brand had a MSRP, and one brand undercut that MSRP, the 49 other sites are going to send it to the brand and write of a cease & desist to that one site.

No clue what you're talking about here... MSRP has NEVER been a REQUIRED price to sell at. MSRP is generally the MAXIMUM price an item is sold for, with a healthy profit margin baked-in. If 49 retailers are colluding to keep prices at MSRP, they're breaking the law and are bound to be caught and heavily fined for doing so.

What manufacturers try to enforce is a MAP (minimum advertised price). However, the MAP is still NOT the lowest price one can sell a product for, only the lowest they can advertise the price at. When an e-Commerce website doesn't prominently list a price, but instead says "Add to cart to see our price" it's because they're selling it below MAP. That is still perfectly legal, there aren't 49 other retailers out there ready to punish them for doing so, and the manufacturer can't do a thing as long as they don't prominently advertise that lower price. The "street price" is almost always below MSRP, and it's not very unusual for it to be below MAP as well.

Both MAP and MSRP represent pricing levels/suggestions by the manufacturers to the retailer; The retailer is not bound to use either price, and can go higher or lower than either;

Ah now, if the US had formented a coup in 2014 then why didn't the pro Russian people of Ukraine reelect the original people in later elections?

It seems to me at least that the Maida revolution was driven more by anger against corruption and a desire to join the EU than the US involvement (which there definitely was, along with Russian involvement).

I tried an affiliate service called LeadDyno recently for my SaaS. A lot of the companies I looked at all have very similar pricing (starting around ~$50/mo), but not all of them worked with Stripe promo codes, which I needed for my app. I ended up cancelling my account when I found out that affiliates were only getting attributed for the first purchase, and not subsequent charges on the subscription.

Now I use a custom query on Stripe Sigma, which is actually cheaper, but probably won't scale as well.

Anyway, glad to see an open source option in this space. Hopefully my anecdote will be interesting to you. Would love to see support for promo codes in the future.
Suicide cable joins two 120v (from different phases) to a 208v. Most high powered lighting fixtures require 208.

> Most if not everyone I know who uses GPUs for mining undervolt the cards as it's more profitable

This is true, but it doesn't mean that the card runs any cooler. Yes, for mining it makes perfect sense to run it at a lower voltage. That doesn't stop your VRAM from getting pinned at 95c, and if you do that for long enough then it won't matter how hard you underclock your GPU. The clock speed doesn't directly correlate to your hash rate.
Canada Post also has a canonical list of all valid addresses.

I live in an apartment, let's say unit 555 at 123 Main St, and my canonical address has the form 555-123 Main St. This is not unusual in any way.

It is vanishingly rare to find a business, software, or customer service agent that is willing to enter this address correctly, even when dealing with my provincial government or my federal government. They always want to put "Apartment" or "Unit", or move the apartment number after the street, or some other transformation.

No, you're confusing MSRP with MAP (minimum advertised price). MSRP is typically the MAXIMUM price you'll see an item sold for, while MAP is typically the MINIMUM.

Yes, because developers and expensive and so developer productivity dominates almost everything else.
> But irrevocability is a problem for this use case, right? Someone is bound to get hacked, lose keys or whatever, and then there's no way to actually prove, inside the blockchain, that it wasn't a legitimate transfer.

Irrevocability is an issue with physical assets too, but it's a compromise we deal with. If someone pickpockets you on the street, in general there's no getting your money back. You don't necessarily have to hold digital assets in a software wallet under one private key, which is the digital equivalent of walking around with something expensive in your pocket - you can choose to store the item in the digital equivalent of a safe or bank vault.

The nice thing about a digital system is that the user can easily choose where along the spectrum they want their ownership to reside. They can choose to manage the key themself, or have an institution do it for them, or anywhere in between (which involves multi-signature schemes of themself along with other persons and/or institutions of their choosing.)

Furthermore, the digital asset can itself optionally be coded to respond to certain third parties for dispute resolution. Current tech allows for an issuer to create a digital item that contains code such that it allows its ownership to be changed through a dispute process. The dispute resolution authority that's coded in could be as simple as a trusted third party or as complex as a legal system unto itself.

There isn't a single one-size-fits-all approach. Every asset issuer gets to choose their own approach, and they get to maintain interface compatibility with all other assets. For example, USDC is controlled by a company that has full blacklisting capability, but it has the same software interface (ERC-20) as WETH, which is an asset where no third party can exert any control over its functionality.

> Anyways, I think the bigger problem is that neither GPG nor blockchain actually solve the "ownership" problem of digital assets. These can be copied without any problem, so proving which ones are original and which ones aren't is impossible without some kind of DRM or verification service, and that's not something that can be done with the blockchain.

I generally agree, but I believe it's an identity issue, not an ownership issue. If there were some way to prove that a certain private key were in the sole possession of a certain person, then proving whether an asset were original or counterfeit would be as simple as checking to see whether the item was signed by the issuing person's key.
Hm, have you talked with the bike lane uprising folk? I think you'll find that these problems are way, way more political than they seem. Good luck, though.

Linus tech tips had an episode on it, and largely found that the performance degradation was insignificant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKqVvXTanzI

He did however note that the cards that he tested had been used in a relatively clean and dust-free environment. The biggest risk to buying a card that has been running 24/7 for years is that the cooling system is busted due to build-up of dust.
This is hard because while, yes, some platform with less potential for jitter and/or noisy neighbors would help eliminate outside influence on the metrics, I think it's also valuable to benchmark these in a scenario that I would assume _most_ operators would run them in, which is a VPS situation and not bare-metal. FWIW, I did try really hard to eliminate some of the contamination in the results that would arise from running in a VPS by doing things like using the _same_ host reconfigured to avoid potential shifts in the underlying hypervisor, etc.

But I would certainly agree that, for the utmost accurate results, a bare-metal situation would probably be more accurate than what I have written.
> What actions did Twilio take, specifically, that you can glean from the expression "with an antiracist lens".

It’s a dog whistle. You might be familiar with the concept, it is commonly used these days. Like when we rightly reject the hypocrisy of “all lives matter” when uttered by a white supremacist.

Again, this might well be nothing, in which case clarifications would help.

> Unless you think the very concept of antiracism is a problem.

When anti-racism is just racism with a different target, yes, we have a problem.

A new platform to play Magic: The Gathering digitally. Been working on it since the pandemic started. It's almost done.

It's a multiplayer sandbox (no rules enforcement) that just allows you to play by providing all the different zones the game involves (play area, hand, lib, gy, ex) and letting you free-drag between them. It has features for every mechanic the game involves - tapping, turning face-down, switching card control to another player, etc - and it looks good and is smooth and easy to use.

There's nothing like it. Existing options have various constraints/drawbacks or else are so old-fashioned and clumsy as to be nigh-unusable.

I don't know how people will react when I announce. I don't know how Wizards of the Coast will react. I'm a bit nervous about it. I know it's the best of its class, because I play magic, and I have no idea what other people will make of it. It fits their fair-use policy (product must be free, but can be ad-supported or take patreon-revenue) but even so I'm nervous.
