So, I am sure this video is very likeable and all. But I don't think metaverse is a total bullshit. Virtual is an experience as well. You can't for example experience flying without risk in real world and for some people experienc

This is too real. But not only big companies, even startups with good funding and mid-sized team can behave like this.

Nice read. Just curious that isn't this handled via rate throttling at load-balancer/gateway level? Like only forward requests to database as much as it can handle?

it might make more sense to use this to transport batteries while using them? Since the batteries are rechargeable - that would help the truck run and also transport the battery. Win-win.

Hey, it seems there is no way one gets notifications on their hacker news comments. So I couldn't reply to this earlier. May be I should use a better word - but I have none right now. When I said monopoly - I intended to say the domina

I have been working on rewriting a monolith into individual services during past year at work - and what we finally implemented for consistency across different databases of services was that we keep a signal queue - where whenever we encou

I don't like the government, but I hate monopoly of the twitter ever more than I hate the existing government or their opposition or any coalition of them. I hate any single entity owning this much power. So government bending them a l

Agreed. Although it's the concentration of power that is harmful in long term than who is holding that power. Moreover, I am not sure how much manipulation humans are able to detect ; a small misinformation injected into twitter timeli

The only positive I see in this is that these kind of government actions on social media giants can push decentralised web more. By it's nature peer-to-peer systems will be beyond control of government. Internet was not supposed to be

Although I haven't found any interest in Koo, but we SHOULD have more apps competing with twitter. The fact that one company decides the worldwide right and wrong of opinions and can manipulate it - is a big single point of failure for

I agree to your points. For India's future growth opening of such markets is very crucial. But government could have just introduced corporate mandis where regulators would be there, and corporates will also be present. The regulators

Exactly. Not all farmers are protesting. It can be good for some, but it's definitely risky for people who are already doing well with the existing MSP system. But social platforms show you what you previously liked, and people get con

True that. Daily you wake up and you see powerplay of tweeting trends. Accounts trying to just use their followers to build a wave of trends and then people against them doing the same. It's not the number of tweets that should build a

Just to add the context - the law does't target MSP directly. They are basically saying that now all farmers of the country can sell their produce without the control of government owned marketplaces called 'mandis'. In &#x27

It surprises me that how much dependent we have become on these big corps (here it's a choice between Microsoft and Google in the article). But at the same time, Wikipedia exists and is an awesome thing without being owned by these fir

Thank you. You are an awesome person. It's a distant dream to have a society where one can restart anytime.
