Decriminalization is only marginally better than criminalization since it's still impossible to regulate the sellers. It's better because at least it stops criminalizing addicts, but it still enables shady people to profit from an

So they allow Threads-to-Mastodon, but they key question is whether they allow Mastodon-to-Threads. The former is just a way to recruit users to their platform, while the latter gives access to their platform without being a user.

I use an ORM for two things, in prioritized order: 1. Composability — making it easy to compose smaller queries together into larger queries 2. Type safety — so I can use the compiler to tell me when I've made a mistake

I would go one step further and say that all sources of runtime configuration should be reportable: * Config files * CLI options * Environment variables And what takes precedence when.

Sounds like GitHub actions should be caching clones of foreign Git repos. People already trust GH CI enough to run their code, so why not trust their cache as well?

One thing's for sure: this is a much worse business case at 5% interest than at 0% interest. Borrowing money at 5% for an expensive machine that can be replaced by paying monthly salaries for labor is not a great business proposition.

This seems like a workaround, at best. I assume this subreddit is not the only place on the internet with this kind of problematic data.

I don’t disagree with this. I disagree with whether these microseconds of difference matter when you’re serving a web page with milliseconds of latency.

More like 1/30th of that. Because of compounding, 10% monthly inflation is over 300% yearly inflation.
