Hey Dang, maybe show the "You're posting too fast. Please slow down. Thanks." message before someone writes their comment? Or just fuck off with that shit?
- > Porn sites suing because Apple won't allow them to put apps in their store and that's costing them their livelihood
Great example, actually. Why do you think it's okay for apple to unilaterally decide what more than a billion people are allowed to use their device for? Is it because you are projecting your own fears and insecurities on everyone else?
- I'm explaining that gene modification will not be considered illegal or bad because the rich will have a vested interest in it being legal. This is a reply to GP saying:
> use legal mechanisms to discriminate and persecute people who are genetically modified
I believe there is no way this will happen, because legal mechanisms are driven by the whims of the rich, and they will want gene editing to be legal. So there will beno legal mechanisms to discriminate against those who have been edited.
- You mean that that's ok for you. Which is fine. It isn't ok for other people, which is also fine.
Some people may not want to have to reopen Nextcloud any time a new directory appears on their device so they can add it to Nextcloud, while the other American bigtech backup apps can just pick it up automatically no problem.
- > this is mostly called an aparthotel
Which is quite different from, and far more expensive than, a hotel which GP was talking about.
> This is different from Airbnb's where they abuse a residential building for short term stays.
As allowed by local regulations, so not quite abuse. Sure it used to be the wild west several years ago but it's been cracked down on since.
- It's designed to sync the files the user wants synced, be it files produced by the camera app or some other app that operates on a directory on your device, such as your Downloads folder, audiobook folder used by your audiobook app, or the notes folder where your notes app writes the notes.txt, or just straight up everything.
- > There are plenty of hotels where you can get multiple rooms and a washing machine
Ok... Can you show me some like that in the EU?
> This is all not to mention being asked to strip beds, take out trash, etc, after you've paid thousands of dollars, including cleaning fees for the place.
Just don't do that.
- > is that productivity in the teams using tools like this has greatly increased
On the short term. Have fun debugging that mess in a year while your customers are yelling at you! I'll be available for hire to fix the mess you made which you clearly don't have the capability to understand :-)

- The only way out is to hold executives personally responsible for the actions of their companies, and politicians for the results of their policy.
Sam Altman should receive the same treatment as Aaron Swartz. Actually, he should be punished much more severely since the scope of his copyright infringement makes Aaron's seem like child's play.
- > I can't speak on it's capabilities, but I feel like I have to ask: for what conceivable reason would you even want that extra error potential with migrations etc?
It's the default behavior of a kubernetes deployment which we're comparing things to.
> It means you're forced to make everything always compatible between versions etc.
For stateless services, not at all. The outside world just keeps talking to the previous version while the new version is starting up. For stateful services, it depends. Often there are software changes without changes to the schema.
> For a deployment that isn't even making money
I don't like looking at 504 gateway errors
> and is running on a single node droplet with basically no performance
I'm running this stuff on a server in my home, it has plenty of performance. Still don't want to waste it on kubernetes overhead, though. But even for a droplet, running the same application 2x isn't usually a big ask.
- The docs don't make it clear, can it do "zero downtime" deployments? Meaning it first creates the new pod, waits for it to be healthy using the defined health checks and then removes the old one? Somehow integrating this with service/ingress/whatever so network traffic only goes to the healthy one?
Apple put themselves in the position that they have to do business with entities they don't approve of, thankfully the courts are reminding them of this. Soon one or more of the apple execs will wind up in prison.
