Well you’ve certainly introduced a teaching moment to me! What are the nature of writes you deal with that last 30+ minutes? What kind of data/what kind of people are involved with such DB writes where you need to rely on the DB engine

Just advertise it as 10,000 per day if that’s what it actually is. Any sane user will see a number like that and know they don’t have to worry about the limit.

Of course prices won’t drop because price is based on what people are willing to pay. However the actual creator will have up to 30% more funding instead of a rent seeker, which means the creator will have more margin to increase quality, w

That’s not an option for me. I live in a rental unit in the SF Bay Area so the appliances are what they are. I cannot afford to buy because I was born into a disenfranchised generation. The LG washer/dryer I use removed all dials and m

There is something to what you say, but the continued success of both Apple Silicon and Nvidia processors seems completely opposed to your statement. How do you reconcile those two things?

It’s got nothing to do with being an EV and everything to do with Tesla requiring monopolized first party repairs where they dictate prices and refuse to sell parts to third party shops.

A box fan with the cheapest furnace filter you can find at the hardware store. Just one on its lowest setting will handle large particulates in a basement. If that’s inadequate, since you mentioned noise as a concern, two box fans with fil

No, per-seat cost for these kinds of things is ALWAYS cheaper than retail. However it does require you to set up a meeting with a sales rep who will then work tirelessly to expand the number of services you use and require longer commitment
