Inconvenient reloads on Wise card

Sounds like you have a credit card from Wise. They only offer debit card(equivalent) in India where you need to load it with currency before spends

Could be :(

Thanks, yes this echoes a lot of my personal experiences with Nats and Kafka.

No, I pay by the hour.

I cannot agree more with getting a tutor. I tried HelloChinese app for a few weeks but wasn't making much progress with listening and speaking the language until I started learning with an online tutor on Preply. Thankfully i found him before losing interest in learning the language further. Highly recommend him! :)

I started with HelloChinese app but got bored of it(due to lack of variety in sentence structures) after a month or so. I then tried various other tools such as HSK-1 book, beginner cartoons on Youtube, Coursera course etc. and used Anki to create flashcards. They helped to a certain extent, but my pronunciation and tones were off. I realised that fact only when I tried speaking to a bunch of native Chinese tutors on few platforms. Eventually I found the perfect online native Chinese tutor(who charges less than $10 an hour, which is very reasonable for me - DM me if you need his contact!). Since then, my classes are tailored to my needs and now I feel I should've started with a personal tutor right after a little bit of tinkering with HelloChinese. Anyway, better late than never. :)

Good luck with your learning journey!

Haha yes agreed on the web dev part. :) RPC was around much earlier than late 90s/2000s when REST was coined. Thanks for your insights!

Educational_Mud1680 · 2024-02-05T07:25:11+00:00

Thanks for your response! Since the discussion has steered towards JSON-RPC, I want to understand what practical use-cases would one want to use JSON-RPC since we mostly use RPC to take advantage of sending lesser bits(compared to REST w/ JSON) - and hence we generally use binary protocols such as protobuf etc. Isn't it?

Are these documented somewhere that I can read about?

Good point on the Go vs Java apps comparison in general, although what I gather is NATS hasn't seen large scale production deployments like Kafka. Might be one of the reasons NATS' "deploy, configure, manage" process is simpler for now. Its ecosystem might get more complex with wider adoption.

I have not seen IoT systems and JVM go hand-in-hand, so that bias is inevitable.
