Please stop trying to explain it to me.

I never understand people rejecting free feedback on social media posts.

Oh dear God. Not everything is racism , you know

Sometimes it’s just ignorance.

Spain supported Germany in WWII. It was a fascist dictatorship until 1975. And last I checked, it is in Europe.

“Mexican” isn’t an ethnicity, and there are a lot of families in Latin America that can trace their entire family tree back to Spain. They aren’t the ones being deported.

The analogy doesn’t check out.

Fuentes is a Spanish name.

Spain is a country in Europe.

Spain supported Nazi Germany in WWII.

I’m not getting your Goldberg analogy…

While true, those companies all have solid revenue streams that aren’t directly related to AI. If a bubble pops they’ll all suffer, but all of them were profitable before the AI boom and can survive without it. It’s very different from the dot bubble because that was driven by speculation and many companies weren’t making any profit back then.

Did you know you can be exposed to other cultures without leaving the country? You did a good job of pointing out why travel alone doesn’t make people more open minded, but you didn’t touch on the opportunities Americans have to connect with other cultures without leaving their own country.

Very high latency, though. Great for some use cases, useless for others.

Ruby is brittle, and if your hotend crashes into the bed due to bad settings, broken ABL, etc it might break. That’s just based on what I read when I was considering buying one, I don’t have any first hand experience.

Prioritizing short term profit when running s business is destructive and long term stupid for the business. But some people make a lot of money by buying companies and running them into the ground, so I don’t think it’s technically “pointless.”

Democrats don’t, but the progressives who caucus with Democrats do.

If we aren’t just talking about this specific instance and instead we’re talking about her attitude in general, is that really the attitude we want to see in progressive politicians?

Aren’t the progressives all on board with forcing the files to be released?

Yes.

It wasn’t named by IT people, though. It was named by academics. And it’s not about using computers, it’s about computing. Computer science is older than digital electronics.

You aren’t going to find that in every industry/career. Not sure what other advice I can give, but if I was in that situation I’d be looking for a career/field that uses a similar set of skills but has a better culture.

Besides RAM, what resources do you think you’re saving? Not CPU cycles or IO ops, because you’re processing the same amount of DB queries either way. Not power consumption, since that isn’t affected by RAM utilization. Maybe disc space? But that’s even cheaper than RAM.

Or more importantly: the extent to which you can self-host out of sheer luck and ignorance like you suggest is very limited. If you don’t want to engage with a minimum amount of configuration, you might bump into security issues (a much broader and complex subject) long before any of the above has a material impact.

You’re mischaracterizing what I said. My point is that running multiple DB processes on a server isn’t going to have a significant impact on system load, if all other factor are kept constant.

You seem to be obsessed with optimising one resource at the expense of others. Time is a limited resource, and even if it only takes 5 minutes to configure all of your containers to share a single db backend (it will take longer than that even if you just have 2), you’re only going to save a few MB of RAM. And since RAM costs roughly $2.5/GB (0.25 cents/MB) your time would have to be worth very little for this to be worthwhile.

On the other hand, if you’re doing it to learn more about computers then it might be worthwhile. This is a community of hobbiests, after all…

Neither, I’m trying to explain that you don’t need to know the implementation details of the software running on your server to backup the entire thing.

Where are you getting that from? The fastest and easiest way to back up any server is a full filesystem backup, especially if you’re using something like zfs or btrfs.

I’m saying this based on real world experience: after a certain point you start to see deminishing returns when optimizing a system, and you’re better off focusing your efforts elsewhere. For most applications, customizing containerized services to share databases is far past that point.
