I’ve used MergerFS and SnapRAID for my media server for about two years. Together they’re really flexible and I’ve been able to drop extra drives into the array as I’ve needed the storage. On that capability alone I highly recommend using them.
I haven’t had a failure yet but I imagine I wouldn’t be in trouble unless I lost a significant portion of my parity drives at the same time.
The last five companies I’ve worked for, three large, one tiny start up, and two msb’s, extensively used A/B and split testing to carefully fine tune every funnel and product to maximize conversion. Most of my job for the last decade has been moving split points around form flows and capturing metrics to show what caused a split to occur. I talk to less than more people that don’t use this practice.
I’ve run splits for everything from background colors to copy changes. If product management anticipates some facet could influence outcome, then it will be tested.
Be super careful with that setup! I did the same with a pair of 32” curved 4k monitors and they were large enough that I was slowly injuring my neck to look at the lower halves of the monitors. I have them oriented in landscape side-by-side now, and they’re honestly just too large even in that arrangement, but I’m at least not hurting like I was. That’s going to be one impressive workspace if it works for you!
If they aren’t paywalled, they’ll hijack ctrl+c in code snippets and give you the option to tweet the snippet. Like what the actual fuck, I’ll find it elsewhere if I don’t figure it out on my own.
ECS is bog standard in a lot of smaller game engines. It’s not new, I first worked with it ~2010 while hacking some Flash stuff together, and I use it frequently when I hack together games in other engines. I’m really baffled by how Unity would be able to patent this.
We adopted a border collie around 1.5 years old two years ago with this same behavior. He was completely paranoid and would piss everywhere if you touched him in certain places or came close too quickly. He really would turn into a shaking blob of jello around strangers, and would lose his shit around any of our Asian man friends or even around them in public, he’d void his bladder and back away barking and snarling.
Took a while for him to get comfortable and after giving him a lot of positive reinforcement and space he’s become the most extroverted love bug I’ve ever met. He regularly smashes up against me when I’m on the couch and at the most inconvenient times because he’s got the grace of an unsupported blob of ballistics gel, but what I love most about his growth over the last two years is that now he’ll even try to put his nose under unsuspecting pedestrian’s hands on walks! Even if they’re Asian men!
Yeah that relief only works in the long term with actively changing how you think and feel about “all this”, I imagine that’s why it’s applied in the context of therapy rather than a one-and-done panacea that I feel is being pushed popularly. Don’t get me wrong, regardless of the tool used therapy takes a lot of work, and for me personally it took a lot of years and requires constant vigilance for me to keep it together. Eating some caps on its own isn’t going to fix anything.
They’re the easiest stack structure to implement. All your operations are against the head of the list and you either have a thing, don’t have a thing, or add a thing. I’d like to be able to maintain a stack of things whose types I don’t have to manually reify and erase. That’s not a tall order, and it’s certainly not “complexity”. It’s markedly weird that I can’t have that same structure and associated operations be usable regardless of the thing I’m working with.
How would you write a singly linked list who’s contents are arbitrary? What if you were to map a function over it? Say you want to use this data structure with third-party objects? How do you do that right now?
I’m really happy you found something that worked. I’m sorry it still had a cost.
My tinnitus started from having had to be on a high dose of a medication for a short term. This side effect I deal with now is far better than the alternative, and I don’t imagine I would be here to complain otherwise. The other side effects sucked as well, but same.
I get pretty steamed when people try to blanket-statement their personal experience or lack thereof onto these deeply personal trade offs and issues and try to invalidate what does or does not work for the sake of sounding smart. Fuck those people.
I’m still here as a direct product of treatment by induced seizures by electroshock. After finishing treatment, it’s as if the toxic narrator of my life has vanished from my life and I’m suddenly just here, myself. But it’s just pseudoscience and I would have done better to read some decent literature.
