I like your premise but disagree with your guidance. You should not convert the integer early, you should actually wait until the very last moment. Nowadays a timestamp will be marshalled and demashalled by (at the very least) two runtimes

What is the benefit of PHEVs compared to BEVs again? Aren't they just as overcomplicated as normal hybrids?

Also a very good option. Ideally it should trigger immediately once a regression happens and at least 12 months prior to service eol (give users time to migrate)

I think putting any amount of tons of matter into stratospheric altitude is a hard challenge. Especially if we consider the fact that you would be putting upwards of 200t[0] of CO2 into roughly the same altitude Only to deliver maybe 5 tons

Interesting approach, hopefully it works out because the problem they are addressing is an important one IMO. If the creators are still aligned with the open source ethos maybe it would help outlining what they consider a fair use fork. EDI

I have a pet theory about that. The theory is that it is not the facts or the topic of Eco-Things. I think generally we are at a point where it is too easy for normal people to be against things and eco friendly things are just the lowest h

That's all fine but the fact of the matter is that a lot of web3 content is built on IPFS and not on all those other technologies (partially because IPFS is truly permissionless), so the "just use another tech" argument is qu

What's not democratic in having the power to use and operate businesses? I think this is the ideal way. Instead of limiting "democracy" to the power users you also include consumers this way.

I'm having difficulty following this train of thought. How is any of this related to consumer level users wanting to keep IPFS data alive?

Seriously, don't put traefik in front of your localdev if.you don't explicitly have to. It is way too much complexity and introduces an added layer of noise to bedug. Also, does local host subdomain resolution work on all OSes OOB

Well, the idea is that your port mappings in the docker compose look roughly like this ``` ports: - "${PORT_PREFIX}01:80" ``` This means that devs can drive the port range that the project bind to by editing their .env file.
174.
by theK 3y ago
Compose overrides are quite cool but can get very involved. An easier way is to make the port range dynamic by adding a prefix variable in .env/example.env. So, once configured, the whole localdev binds to ports in the prefix range, eg

Apart from the obvious web3 stuff there are some interesting usecases for classical enterprise software. Caveat, my experience is limited to clusters below 100 nodes. You can run your private IPFS DHT if you want and the protocol has some c

I also was very active in the early IPFS days. I think two points really atributted to your experience 1. Success: IPFS got tons of usage early on so scaling the software (which back then was mostly a prototype) was challenging, especially
