  • Yet another reason to hate on the worse DB in existence

    Jump

  • Confidentiality, regulatory compliance, schema modeling (IDLs?), query load balancing (rpc infra) and operational tooling pretty good in my world now (Solana). Throughout and latency decent now (400ms conf, couple second finality, 4k tps) but obviously the type of system that needs a trustless immutable database has tradeoffs.

    How easily can you write a crud system? No clue that’s on you. A line of business service? Why the hell would that need a trustless immutable ledger. You’re barking up the wrong tree. Low level financial systems are pretty much the only thing that benefits. Small niche for proof of existence perhaps. And maybe other immutable use case things.

  • Based on what? It’s top notch for immutability, zero trust, proof of existence, accountability, transparency, uptime, decentralization, network resilience…

  • In conclusion: Magic DNS

  • I do for a small home pi cluster

  • What additional concepts should I learn before starting to learn rust?

    Jump

  • Just start using Rust. You can read for years and years about stuff, but it’s much more useful to just start USING and DOING.

    One-third of consumers don't want AI on their devices, report finds, and it's not because they don't understand it: They just don't need it

  • Eh that’d be horrible. 30 min power outage and your clock is off enough to really throw you off.

  • Firefox is adding a switch to turn AI features off

    Jump

  • Yeah all I have is a useless summarize button that I just don’t click. If I needed it I would, seems useful. But I don’t really need it for anything. I like to read.

  • Why I am moving away from Scala

    Jump

  • Java 8 was analogous to 1.8...for reasons.

    Yeah Java 2 was actually 1.2 for… same reasons

  • EVs Just Outsold Gas Cars In Europe For The First Time

    Jump

  • electric car sales numbers are going up

    Not necessarily. If this period, more hybrids were sold instead of gas cars over the prior period, it would result in this threshold also being crossed. In addition, less cars over all could be sold.

    To objectively know that more elec were sold you’d have to have the prior month.

  • I was doing enterprise stuff. Was a weird time dodging bullshit like j2ee “javabeans” stuff but picking out the signal from the noise.

    Mostly did websphere hosted jsp stuff. Moved to that from… check it… J++. It was right in the midst of the MS v Sun lawsuit craziness.

    Only did 2 years before a huge MS .NET enterprise pivot back to the dark side where I stayed for 20 years before jumping to embedded and rust blockchain stuff.

  • It’s an amazing adventure. I’m at the grey beard part. Good times.

  • Java 25

    Holy hell I’ve been out of that world for a hot minute. I got certified in Java 2 as a young lad in 2002 or so.

    Have there been versions the whole way up, or did they skip and jump to match the year at some point?

  • You Are Being Misled About Renewable Energy Technology [Technology Connections]

    Jump

  • Ya. It was literally the letter that the colonies sent the king telling him to fok off

  • for some reason, there are twitter accounts distributing movies in cloud storage rather than torrents.

    Jump

  • What, you’ve never downloaded a game divided into 5 1.2MB chunks via a 1200 baud dialup modem using XModem on a WWIV BBS and had your mom pickup the phone on the last file?

  • If everybody at ICE protests showed up with masks and a gun would there be more or less violence?

    Jump

  • It’s so relieving to watch so many people change their stance on the second amendment. Trump has done the pro gun movement a huge favor.

  • True story that might have happened today

    Jump

  • Yeah, we are falling into a little bit of this where I work right now. It’s a bit of a change of mindset to begin thinking that you can’t trust a PR even a little. Yes, you should be able to but humans are humans and we get lazy and trusting the magic pattern machine is gonna impact everyone’s life in a lot of ways

  • Trump Is Obsessed With Oil. But Chinese Batteries Will Soon Run the World.

    Jump

  • I ran the numbers on mine and it’d be 25 years ROI, which is also likely past the life of the panels.

    I live northern US, with a hydro dam nearby and a non-profit co-op utility. $0.06/kWh. $25/mo hookup fee. And natural gas for heat.

    Doesn’t quite make sense yet.

  • What was the most singular sight on Earth that you saw in your life? Some place that is difficult to imagine that exists and that couldn't be replicate by humans that easy

    Jump

  • Ive seen two in the last decade. It’s surprisingly easy to know when it’s totality, and when it ends. Not only are there apps that do countdowns, but your eyes make it very clear if they’re disturbed by light or not.

    Totality is incredible. A sight truly indescribable. A different color of white unimaginable, in a ring in the sky, animated like fire. I actually opened this comment section to come post this.

  • X now lets any user AI-edit other users’ images without consent, and there is no opt out

  • You’ve totally changed the original post’s topic and made it into something obviously unacceptable. There’s a line to cross with content in general, AI or not, and any public ai model should absolutely have safety rails / content moderation on its output
