Completely off topic but the title made me wonder if there’s any subscription service that cancels you if you don’t use it? Not quite usage based billing - plans that cancel (or pause) without use? I can’t think of any - terrible business m

I own a Tesla (and subscribe to "FSD", >70% of my miles are FSD without issue). As it stands though, Waymo is by every metric objectively better at "autonomous driving". I would also love to see every car brand have f

Your original post was very public under a very well known brand - you have no expectation of privacy after that. People are going to respond to you publicly.

I love it. The UX is terrible but the visualization is very "outside the box". Experiments like this are important on the road to finding novel interfaces. Not everything has to look like a v0 shadcn app. Thank you for sharing!

> IMO Playnite is a behemot and it's very hard to overtake it Why do you need to overtake it? Playnite is open source, you could contribute to it to make it better.

Both - but primary the cloud offering. The main author ( https://x.com/heyandras ) is pretty open about the project revenue its sources. If I remember correctly they're at about 10k MRR mostly from Coolify Cloud. Edit: L

I think trained knowledge is less and less important - as these multi-modal models have the ability to search the web and have much larger context windows.

I was about to say the same thing - I use Zulip at current employment - and after you get used to it it’s pretty great software that already solves all the problems struct aims to (without the AI nonsense)

While inevitable, I am impressed they are refunding all purchases, including hardware. That can't be cheap.

Oh - my bad - I thought you were a contributor to Lapce (which apparently uses Druid). Iced looks nice too, but it's missing a lot of core features that I think are pretty crucial (e.g. Multi-windows).

How have you been finding Druid? I think it's a difficult start for a lot of people because how often it's changing (and how Xilem may fundamentally change it again in the future). I had a similar issue with iced. Rust GUI is in a

Unrelated, but I found reading this post very easy. Something about the colors and font choices worked well for my brain which struggles recently to parse most long-form content..

This is either a fundamental misunderstanding of React, or you're actually talking about a different library. > React works well for simple, non-interactive components. Complex, interactive components are going to have state. Statef

It doesn't change often, if we do we just have large automated rollout plans - but we've done mass changes enough times there are good procedures around large DB migrations.

There are _many_ databases on each server, last I checked there was around 8 servers (or: "clusters") - and we have it so the traffic is somewhat evenly distributed across each server. There are reasonable capacity limits, and whe

Not quite the same but at Fandom (Wikia), every wiki has its own DB (over 300,000 wikis), and they are clustered across a bunch of servers (usually balanced by traffic). It works well - but we don't ever really need to query across dat
