Some of the plant decomposes to the atmosphere, but some stays in the soil too. It is pretty easy to demonstrate it to yourself, with fast-growing plants, after a few years you can have quite a bit of extra carbon-based matter in the soil.

Yeah. 6kw-10kw are common generator size here in Australia

It means it would be cheaper for the generator to pay you to use the power than to have to shut down or reduce output.

And yet our best science is done when we ignore the links and silo things as much as possible.

What they were announcing wasn't a secret. There were news reports several days before, possibly even earlier.

I am sorry, but I believe you are mistaken. Recipe sharing worked one way for all of history until it became profitable to game the search engines by adding story-like content.

Yes! trying to use it for new things. Because of the stable nature of the base language and library, and the way libraries are imported, with multiple pinned versions allowed and without import loops, it gives better longevity to "set

And Redis LFU not mentioned even once... seems like the most unknown feature of Redis!

by Andys 4y ago
Aside for anything else, backwards compatibility is good (repeatability for a certain behaviour). And it doesn't seem relevant as to why you'd completely ignore it when discussing cache eviction compared to Redis.
132.
by Andys 4y ago
It seems odd that the article doesn't mention Redis's LFU mode which improved on LRU since about 5+ years ago.

It looks like Google's persistent networked disks perform worse than AWS's. I typically see sub-1ms latency on GP2 disks even under load. GP3 is usually a little higher but still under 1ms.

It is a fancy board with an annoyingly high idle power consumption. But it meant official ECC support so I went with it.

I decked out a home workstation 64GB ECC for $400 last year (paired with an AMD 5000 series CPU and Asus Pro WS X570-ACE motherboard which are both compatible). The motherboard specifically stated ECC compatibility.

Young professionals, find yourself an employer where your colleagues are willing to communicate with you, mentor you, cowork with you - and this can all be remote.

They're already more than half way to a billion a year in revenue from only ~2500 of 12000 satellites so far in orbit. Hopefully this will make its continued support financially plausible.

Yeah and it's becoming more disparate because solar PV generation works particularly well for cooling hot climates, versus the freezing winters where there's far less usable solar irradiance and yet they use even more energy to st

After using Rails for 15 years, I'm looking for a future on Go. The niche where Rails is great is larger apps that don't need anything custom or deviating from the built-in Rails Way. Simpler apps or services are simple in Go. Ap

Supplying the grid with say, 6kW for 1 hour during a peak load event, would only dent an EV battery by about 10% of total charge. And thats only needed on some days of the year. Only a tiny % of total vehicles would be needed to be connec

Electric cars are the problem but maybe also the solution, since they can be configured to feed power back into the grid at peak times (and peak spikes is the limiting factor)

You could, but it isn't efficient enough to compete economically with the plain old electricity in more direct forms?

From my perspective, its a continuing boom over decades. New abstractions come along (eg. AWS), bringing additional complexity, then better tooling gets developed to deal with it, and this prepares the way for new abstractions on top (eg. K

OK, for now, but I imagine 5 year old fiestas will go up in price alot when new ones stop getting made. And then it will get harder and harder to keep them running. All the while EVs steadily dropping in price. Its a slow burn.
