I'm surprised there are no comments here, I think this is a very interesting question.

We are b2b and need to have high isolation between customers which means dedicated resources. Because of this, it's likely out our margins are lower than many other SaaS categories.

We target 80-90% margin on most of our subscription plans.

Pipes point backwards. They still don't make enough noise to be heard from in front. That's why loud bikes always scare people, you don't hear them coming until they are next to you and blasting past you. It's silence and then deafening roar.

Loud pipes save lives is bullshit. Defensive riding, good safety gear, and staying out of blind spots saves lives.
blocking doesn't even stop troublemakers. They can just create another account.
I agree with musk here. blocking is mostly useless
I would disagree. I watch ASMR videos on YouTube that sometimes contain ads. No only does the volume mismatch tend to be startling, but they're normally just ideologically startling and unwanted.

ASMR videos about sponsored products are weirdly the opposite for me though. They always feel so blatant, but for some reason it increases the ASMR, just knowing that the person in the video is trying to sell my something.
One method I have seen on hobby sites is to use JavaScript to replace the contents of the page with obnoxious flashy seizure inducing effects. Hats off to 4chan... Maybe don't do that but I think one could replace the contents of the page with a message saying that JS must be disabled to access.
Hey there - author of article here. As the article mentions in the beginning, this is a spend that happened before I started consulting them - and the blog has nothing to do with the actual company.

Also, I'm a developer now so don't do consulting any more.. Merely writing this down for my own record and if it can help/inspire anyone else so not looking for free advertising. But thank you for reading!
...Fish sticks and chicken nuggets are some of the more iconic "highly processed foods" out there though? And think about it, "just soy flour with seasoning" sure, but what about the "meat" on the bones? That's going to be soy flour and a mixture of saturated and unsaturated fats, binders, textural elements, seasoning, thickeners and so on.

Basically the soy-flour bones are just one additional element, it's not like people are going to be buying them on their own, they'd realize that they're just seasoned dog treats.

Author here. The problem for them was mainly that the agency running their ad account counted "demo requests" as their top metric and mistakingly counted all demo requests that came in as attributed to the marketing spend. So they reported on faulty numbers during the entire year. Hubspot showed that direct ads actually didn't work at all (mainly because they didn't really have PMF yet). Needless to say, that agency got fired pretty quickly..

Rust is great when you know what you're building. That qualifier encompasses quite amount of software space, but not all of it, and I would argue not even the majority of it.

If you don't know what you are doing, if you are exploring ideas, Rust will just get in the way. At some point you will end up realizing you need to adjust lifetimes, and that will require you to touch non-trivial amount of your code base. If you need to that multiple times, friction will overwhelm your desire to code.

I have a pet theory that, the people that find Rust intuitive and fun, are the people that are working on well beaten paths; Rust is almost boring at doing that, which is a good thing. And the people that find Rust gets in their way are the people that like to experiment with their solutions, because there aren't any set, trusted solutions within their problem space, and even if there are, they like to approach the problem on their own, for better or worse.

In any case:

> why would anyone start a greenfield project like this in C++ these days?

The video game industry can single-handedly carry C++ on their back, kicking and screaming, if need be. Rust is uniquely unfit to write gameplay code due to game development's iterative nature. Using scripting languages doesn't cut it either, because often, slower designer made scripts will need to be converted to C++ by a programmer, and pull in the crazy reference hell of the game state into the C++ land.

I would say Rust is OK for engine level features -- those don't change that often, and requirements are usually well understood. But that introduces a cadence mismatch between different systems too, so there is a cost there as well. But for gameplay? There's a reason why many Rust based game engines use crazy amount of unsafe Rust to make their ECS. Just not a good fit.

And of course, there's the consoles, where Sony seem to have a political reason for not supporting Rust on non-1st-party studios. I have no idea what they are thinking, honestly.
Noise can reduce the visibility of artifacts, generate apparent detail that is missing in actuality as well as being a signifier of particular styles or time periods.

You'll be telling me that distortion pedals and valve amps are a bad idea next.
Same - I see that quite a lot around traditional Polish restaurants. Polish cousine already has a lot of meat-free dishes, a lot of it borne from the times of difficulty and learning to make do with very little, so it's completely normal to order a dish that just doesn't happen to have any meat in it, and no one would even think of it as specifically vegetarian/vegan(even though it is). But now those dishes are being pushed out for specific vegetarian/vegan dishes where a traditional dish with meat is being replaced with a meat-imitation. It's like......why? If you want vegetarian dumplings(pierogi), there are literally dozens of different options already, we've been making them literally for centuries, but you'd rather have pierogi with meat-imitation pork mince? I mean suit yourself, but it's just weird.
The same applies when another human does it
That would be awfully hard to do as I am not using Linux (:

1. Yes, two mirrored vdevs are not the highest performance configuration for four devices, but they beat a single raidz vdev, which was the suggestion from the prior poster.

2. Random reads are more important than sequential for desktop responsiveness, and mirrors can serve different reads from each disk in the mirror, effectively doubling IOPS (minus overheads).

5. I am not sure I understand here. It seems like you're suggesting 3 data drives and a parity drive. This would allow at most one drive loss before data loss. Two mirrors allow at least one drive loss and up to two drive losses. If there were two parity drives, this would allow up to two drive losses without data losses, but it seems this would have to reduce your claim in point (1) to being 2x performance, since two drives would have to be used for parity writes.
If it's a normal page accessed from the public you cannot. The reason is because the client is completely unknown and anonymous to the server. Therefore the server cannot trust or make assumptions upon the security or state of the client.

The best you could hope for is to impose some manner of authentication scheme so that the client and server are known and uniquely identified to each other at each page request irrespective of session. Then and only then are all options on the table.

This becomes not trivial, but easily accomplished, if the browser were requesting the page from a localhost server.
Thanks, it sounds great!

That's fine!
> I'm not really sure why the Wh exists

It never really clicked for me how silly this is until you said it, so I went and looked it up.

It turns out it's kind of the other way around; the watt came first: It was originally defined as "the power conveyed by a current of an Ampère through the difference of potential of a Volt".

Watt-hour seems to come around in the 1890s as utilities explore ways to bill customers for electricity use, originally "ampere-hour meters" and then "watt-hour meters".

Joule shows up about the same time, in like 1880 or so, and was defined in terms of the watt, rather than the watt defined in terms of the joule, if I skim Wikipedia correctly.. So that'd mean Joule and Wh are both kind of competing units of energy - one used by GE and Westinghouse and all those people, and the other used by scientists(?)

The watt then gets redefined in terms of a joule much later, in 1948.
This is a superior design for operating off unpaved airstrips. If the landing gear is robust enough, this could handily supplement the C130's capabilities. They can always place heaters on top to manage any ice accumulation.

Now you have moved the goal posts from buying a Honda which would be a dealer based network, not a online purchase.

Then you selectively edited my comment so if you want to post the full comment then post the full context, as I clearly said for a Tesla " if I went to buy a tesla and it was not delivered with a title I would not accept delivery."

thus if the delivery driver shows up and does not have that paper work, either title or application of title, then i am not signing for the delivery to accept the vehicle
OK, here's the story:

Spotify pays content creators based on how many ads are played.

A white/brown/pink/etc. noise track/podcast is likely to be hours long, so that listeners can have it play long enough to fall asleep. Once asleep, the listener is still technically "listening" to the track/podcast, including the ads that Spotify then must pay the content creator for. With tens or hundreds of millions of listeners each listening to hours of content, this cost adds up.

Spotify has its own white/brown/pink/etc. noise tracks that it doesn't need to pay anyone for. Those are what Spotify would like to see its users stream, because it could save them - by their own calculation - $38 million.

Beyond that, the giant media corporations whining about the fact that money is going somewhere other than their own accounts is... par for the course. Really, this entire situation speaks to the absurdity of the industry itself and its own greed.
In common law jurisdictions it'd likely be the courts setting the limits, using judgement and precedent to set what is reasonable and what is not in the contract. If they put there that they get your car, and come to collect, you tell them to take a hike, they can sue and likely lose because a judge would say it's unreasonable, and they'll be on hook for court costs. In the borderline cases, may still be worth it for them, but pushing it too far is just losing money.
I don't think the comparison to Plaid is helping as much as you think. You and Plaid are in completely different verticals and as a result have completely different goals and users.

You created a single API for several services.

That's where the comparison with Plaid ends.
Very loud vehicles in our neighborhood make me have revenge fantasies of ack-ack guns mounted to the roof of my house. But I'm too peaceful a person to do anything about it. Extremely annoying though and if I ever buy another house I will make sure to do better research about the noise levels.
I think good journalism still exists, you just need to pay for it. I don't see the Economist getting basic facts wrong, even in topics I'm familiar with. The main problem is that there is far more money in ad-driven content than high quality subscriber content.

so what's the point? we can already write blocking code. The reason why people want to use reactive frameworks is because they don't want to block threads just because some I/O is happening.
Buried water storage tanks are not rare. The San Francisco Water Department has some in their system.[1][2] They're basically roofed concrete reservoirs. Those store clean, processed water.

Those could have been fully buried or hidden, but, being visible only from the air, it wasn't worth it.

Lens flare, as the name suggests, is a product of lenses, and the number, shape, and colour of flares is determined by the lenses in the film camera. Humans with normal vision rarely see lens flare, but it can be caused by astigmatism, LASIK, or other conditions.

It also requires staring into a bright light, so don't do that.
Strictly commercial. But if one is happy with other language I guess there is little reason to switch.
Very fair point. Transforming the randomness to fit it into the audible spectrum would certainly have side effects
FOSS developers and users have been using the terms free software, open source software, and free and open source software for decades to describe software that is licensed in a way that allows any user to use, modify, and redistribute it for any purpose. There is nothing wrong with a company using these terms to describe their software when the software preserves these user freedoms.

What you are trying to do is hijack the term open source to enable companies like Meta to market their proprietary software using the goodwill generated by the FOSS movement, without actually providing the user freedoms that FOSS developers have been ensuring and FOSS users have been expecting. That is not an "improvement", even though it is a newer suggestion, because it violates the expectations of FOSS developers and FOSS users.

The free software movement originated in the 1980s and the open source software movement originated in the 1990s. There is no way FOSS developers and FOSS users will switch to a phrase that you just made up ("hackable software") to allow companies like Meta to hijack a term that originated from these movements to advertise their software in a misleading fashion.
Oh, but they released murderers in Ukraine much earlier to send them to the war. And I don't speak of murderers of Russian people in Odessa may 2014, since these never went to prison in the first place.

A large portion of BC is completely inaccessible by any means - which doesn't help. Lots of huge mountain ranges!
But the problem turns out to be climate change, oil usage and the BC Conservatives deciding that the pine beetle could be stopped by normal winters (after "normal" winters were already fading ... but this is hindsight ...). Ok they were called the "BC liberal party" but they were a hard-right conservative party and still are ... but I'm not sure if the large-scale pine beetle caused dead forests are still a factor... my last trip through one of the areas currently on fire (a couple of weeks ago) - I didn't see the characteristic red/dead pine trees that time and while I'm just an inhabitant, I was looking. (Banff through Kelowna area to Vancouver, as my usual Kamloops route was already being evacuated in parts then).
On the other hand, this is nice for anyone who wants to play with these networks locally and does not have a nvidia GPU with 6+ gigabytes of VRAM. I can run this on an old laptop, even if it takes a while.

Since systemd has used its monopoly position to change the Linux kernel, and to force other things on distros, yes, their monopoly is bad.
I completely agree. To build my array I had to buy several drives at the same time. To expand I had to buy a new drive, move the data onto the array, and then I’m left with the extra drive I had too buy to temporarily store the data because I can’t add it to the array.

I would love to have more options for expandable redundancy.
Looks like Telegram has its own asn (https://bgp.he.net/AS62041) so they are announcing the space through the cloud providers. So they would announce their space to was, hcp, azure, etc with the rpki.
> It is completely impossible that people drove all these animals extinct with sharp sticks.

Why? Spears are extremely effective and deadly.

And it happened everywhere else. Megafauna also disappeared in Asia, as soon as humans appeared.

> People lived in the Americas for thousands of years without affecting them

In other words: animals existed for hundreds of thousands of years, but they disappeared within several hundred of years, right as human settlement waves moved across the Americas.
This is a few years old now, it's age made clearer by the lack of generics.

I don't really agree. The more experienced Devs I know enjoy Go's simplicity. Personally I miss pattern matching and algebraic types, but I am fully able to live without it them and the proposal around using interfaces looks interesting.
And this is exactly the comment I was talking about.

Anyways for any sensible people, yes, Nightly is a branch specifically for testing and evaluating, doesn't mean you have to brick peoples browsers after some time when you push an update (again, back when I used it that was the behavior, according to a different comment it might be different now), to force a restart.

"As for Windows rebooting out of nowhere: Get a Professional or Enterprise license and turn autoupdates off via Group Policy and your problems are solved.", yes, I already addressed this and mentioned this solution, but again, that doesn't change the fact that it's wrong in the first place, maybe actually read the comment you are replying to?
I'm not a fan of this approach. I think the Secrets Store CSI Driver (https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/secrets-store-csi-driver) has a better approach. It mounts secrets directly from a KMS (e.g. Vault, AWS KMS, GCP KMS, Azure Key Vault) into your application's file system.

Why not environment variables? Because files have stronger access control mechanisms than environment variables. Someone in the same PID namespace as your process can see your environment variables, but they can't necessarily see your files.(Although the driver does support environment variables for compatibility: https://secrets-store-csi-driver.sigs.k8s.io/topics/set-as-e...)
I wonder how much of the technical problem Spotify actually cares about. From the sound of the article, they really only cared about the cost of paying out ad revenue.

Then again, if Spotify really cared about saving bandwidth costs, they would have never gone to CDN from P2P.

Well, you also have more places to put evacuation corridors and extra doors.
No, I would guess they said said that because of the paragraph after paragraph of blathering.
The "good" news is they didn't transg-enic-plant the whole system--which would be crazy difficult--or create a toy reimplementation.

Instead did a spot-patch for "imagine if the plant could have generated this antibody on its own."

So kind of like checking that you're dog can wear a sweater, rather than creating a race of textile-weaving terriers.
