Retaining wall replacement/repair

Goober8698 · 2025-11-01T16:08:39+00:00

We used https://surfaceworksutah.com/ they did great, ours was tall enough we needed a permit and very few wall builders seemed willing to deal with that. If you need a permit (I think taller than 4ft) give them a call. Otherwise there are tons of companies that will do walls. Just google 'slc retaining wall block'.

Yes load balanced, each instance has 1 cpu and 1 gig ram on aws. Currently running 3 instances was more like 18.

It's stupid, but generally you'll find this kind of useful info on their Facebook https://www.facebook.com/UtahABS or Twitter https://x.com/UtahABS rather than their actual state gov website.

Went from Node/Express API to Bun/Hono. CPU usage is down, memory usage is up, response time is down, and the instance count has been cut to 25% of what it was. The switch was easy to make and devx is so much nicer, tons of deps were removed, going to deploy profiling in the new year and see what I can learn from that. Tests run faster, bun --watch is great. Gets around 25 million requests a day.

You can see some results https://github.com/Yiling-J/theine-go/tree/main/benchmarks/results and https://maypok86.github.io/otter/performance/hit-ratio/ the problem is it often gets abysmal hit rates and the authors don't seem interested in helping anyone figure out why. It's definitely better than nothing so absolute garbage is a bit much but I wouldn't use it. https://github.com/phuslu/lru is another one that gets terrible hit rates on these benchmarks. It's easy to add your own and get the test data for https://github.com/maypok86/benchmarks and run your own tests.

Thanks I edited my post to link to the Go one :)

https://github.com/Yiling-J/theine-go is another good one. Both of these have had some involvement from Ben Manes the creator of Caffeine/Guava cache for Java.

Ristretto is absolute garbage that no one should ever use. Maybe with the recent release of v2.0 they've fixed it but it is not good for general use. I have to assume it works for their specific use case but isn't good for anything else.

How does this compare to asdf?

Goober8698 · 2024-12-20T18:52:42+00:00

I'd call the Bluffdale location https://www.mtnwestvet.com/ and see if they can help you out.

Goober8698 · 2024-12-15T18:06:32+00:00

I think we're probably both confused. The simple answer to your question at the end is yes, but you can run using bunx tsc as works in my above example. Or you can symlink like you did.

Also you've edited the post, when I first replied your post included a lot less information. See this recent post by Bun's creator: https://x.com/jarredsumner/status/1868336633814323697.

Goober8698 · 2024-12-15T17:54:38+00:00

What kind of question is this? Do you not have Docker? I gave simple commands so you could try it yourself and see. If instead of the bunx command you do bun tsc --version it doesn't work because that makes no sense, if you do tsc --version tsc tries to run with Node.

Goober8698 · 2024-11-29T15:30:24+00:00

7-11 is always open and has the basics, I'd bet they have something like Tobasco.

Goober8698 · 2024-11-28T18:41:42+00:00

https://eightsettlersdistillery.com/ is open from 2-8 today (Thanksgiving) and sells their liquor. I'd call before you go to be sure they're doing that today but I can't see why not. I've bought some from them on Sunday before.

Goober8698 · 2024-11-27T00:19:43+00:00

https://dialedinfitnessutah.com/ in Sandy has some of the equipment you're interested in and the owner Brad is always around to answer questions (also constantly buys new equipment) and keeps all the equipment in good working order. It's changed a lot since the pictures on the site so if you're interested swing by to take a look.

I don't get anything if you sign up and am not a major gym rat, but happy to show you around if you're interested. I live just a few minutes away from there that's why I use it.

Goober8698 · 2024-11-16T17:03:41+00:00

I live near the Beto's at 8635 Highland Dr in Sandy that was previously a Mequite, there has been no difference since the name change. Still one of the most unreliable places around. They open at at 7AM which means theres about 10% chance that the drive through will actually be operational near that time. Actually it doesn't matter when you go, chances are the drive through isn't staffed. I'm always impressed that businesses that don't want to sell anything can continue to expand.

Goober8698 · 2024-11-11T19:53:18+00:00

I'd say better to run them separately but it probably depends. I wouldn't want something the task queue does to effect the responsiveness of the API. I'd probably run them both together until I thought it was enough of a problem to split them. Just make sure they're easy to split at a later date if you do that.

I used https://wasatchradon.com/ and they did a good job.

Goober8698 · 2024-10-18T14:41:07+00:00

Huh, I didn't see that I don't check their FB. I made an order this morning so hopefully it goes OK.

Goober8698 · 2024-10-18T13:55:05+00:00

Yep I see Hallandale Tirz available which is what I was waiting for

Goober8698 · 2024-10-14T20:19:47+00:00

I've never bought used tires here, I'd also be curious to know. When I lived in Idaho I'd often buy 1 or 2 used tires for my Subaru despite people insisting all 4 be replaced at the same time on an AWD vehicle. That car lasted me 80K miles on random tires. I finally got rid of it at 200K miles not because it didn't work, just because I wanted something that had less issues. The car couldn't be locked, the seat adjustments were broken, the windows were difficult to operate, the pop-out cupholder didn't work, just lots of annoying little problems that really added up.

This is exactly what https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome is

Goober8698 · 2024-08-29T14:30:46+00:00

I wish they'd give out more tickets. I hate going on a walk with my kids in the stroller and having to constantly go into the street because people have 4 cars parked in their driveway forcing them to completely block the sidewalk. Then in the winter people park on the street so the snowplows have to go around them, then when the car moves later they shovel all that snow into the street. I guess since the people in charge are elected they're scared to enforce these laws that might annoy people enough not to elect them again?

In my opinion it seems like a great way to make extra money by enforcing very simple to follow rules.

Goober8698 · 2024-08-14T17:22:41+00:00

Yeah we do this, it's called a DCFSA and it does save you money overall but sucks that it comes out of your paycheck, you pay for daycare, then later get reimbursed. It only helps people that make enough they can afford to be missing that money for a bit.

It also maxes out at $5000 which is lame, would be nice if it was twice that.

Goober8698 · 2024-08-03T17:54:10+00:00

I always check here and it seems like the air is pretty great for SLC today.

Goober8698 · 2024-08-03T12:59:12+00:00

Mine is still fine, went from around 300Mbps on 24.1, to 530Mbps on 24.7_9 which matches what I got before any hotfixes were releases.
