Maybe knowing there are many institutions on the network is a good motivation to keep services secure. It's apparent any hospital or vendor may be breached. So if you overcome the false sense of security, the separate network will give

What's this? Is thrftwy an account intending to convince people they really need to invest heavily into their armies and stop whatever Russia is doing?

That ship has sailed. C and C++ have macros so that line may do actually anything.

That's a part of IKEA's appeal. Because of the consistent quality and the extensive market share, there's a lively secondary market for the furniture. At least in Europe. You simply cannot sell (or even give away) similarly p

Tell this to Instagram or WhatsApp before acquisition. ;-) They have scaled well enough, IMHO. On the other hand, I agree that for the larger teams, microservices make sense. It's much easier when you can roll back a failed deployment

Not really. Even with a monolith, you get partial availability. Most often as a default. Imagine a web server handling requests. It usually has a way to recover from a crashed request handler. On top of that, you have multiple web servers b

Northern Africa has a lot of cheap land and a lot of sun. Wind, too. Steel can be then transported (it is already shipped across large distances). You would have to solve maintenance, but that should be doable. The main obstacle for invest

Well, from my point of view, the war just makes all of this only worse. I imagine going to the Crimea for a family vacation isn't a great prospect with the risk of bombardment or even a takeover. But that's probably something wher

I mean, you could have travelled there even before the 2014 hostilities began. So it's not like you gained anything in that regard, right? Now if Russia loses it, the travel there might be more difficult for some time.

How do you (or anyone) personally benefit from "having Crimea"?

I don't see any attack on ethnic identity. Supporting Russian imperialism doesn't have anything to do with ethnicity. If anything, such support only hurts the Russian nation. I'm talking not only about the current loss of lif

Not really. If I don't agree to on-call, I do it on best-effort basis. That is: "Oh, I'm camping with kids without a computer. I'll try to help you as much as I can. Did you try Z after X and Y didn't work? Ok, try

You usually get some extra money for the duty. And if you get woken up, the hours you spend are counted towards your normal working hours - so you aren't expected to show up in the morning after putting out a fire. Or you get some more

I know this from a few startups and it really is not that bad. You really triage what should wake you up and what's ok until morning. It works well as long as the technical founder is ok playing a goalie and essentially being always on

Possibly. Also in my country (in EU), the home insurance doesn't cover your liability for an accident like this. That would be another type of insurance you buy extra.

The self-modifying code mentioned in the Macros section could be automated in an IDE! That is, your IDE should be able to show you the expansion of a macro at that specific place. This feature would help me much more to understand what&#x27

Looks awesome! Trying to use it for a toy project, I realized you almost always need some persistence layer. I see you support volumes and you have some guides about deploying databases. How does that work? Are they also "scale to zero

You're right we could. In fact, it was a single server until about 2 TB. We considered a larger server and in fact at that point we could have just added a few more disks. But we still decided to shard. First, the data size is growing

It's AGPL so you can self-host. You can even pay someone to host it for you if you don't like Microsoft's offer. I find it easier than rolling your own AND self-hosting.

We use Citus. Very similar performance properties to DIY sharding but much more polished. Currently at 7 TB, self hosted. Growing roughly at 100 % per year, write-heavy. Works fine for us.

That's the English transliteration. Don't forget that other Slavic languages also transcribe according to their own rules. For example in Czech, Валерий would be transliterated as Valerij because "j" is pronounced in Cze

In my understanding, the most important part is to not share user information with third parties. IIUC, Google can use Google analytics data to join your behavior from multiple sites and then use that to serve targeted ads. The next level i
