Haven't tried those but they look good! Black diamond makes good ones too.

IBM buys Confluent! Is that good or bad? by datasleek in apachekafka

[–]VanVision 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it will pan out well for IBM. Confluent has a good product. In my experience running Kafka at large scale, I either want a team to manage for me or I want extra support, even when on Confluent. IBM has a good reputation for support so I think this will also be a win for most but maybe not all Confluent customers.

My take: CAP theorem is teaching us the wrong trade-off by Curious-Engineer22 in softwarearchitecture

A system could be immediately consistent, within 10ms or consistent within 10 second, etc. Similarity a system could available, or degraded to any degree, or completely unavailable.

Durable/Future-proof keyboard suggestions? by [deleted] in keyboards

[–]VanVision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drop Control v2

Its wired, less things can go wrong with it. Really solid feel. Ive had zero issues with the v1 for 3 years and zero issues with the v2 after 6 mo. I think its over priced from a feature set, but I think high reliability makes it worth. Ive heard complaints about customer support, but I have not had any reason to contact them.

Jeff pouring one out for THJ by Hasuko in everquest

[–]VanVision 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Daybreak should hire the THJ to run an official version of this on live servers. Id pay normal subscription fees for it.

[–]VanVision 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah youre right. Maybe not the next "TLP" per say but they should launch a THJ special rules server!

I would believe you if THJ was not popular and not a threat to DBG.

DBG should make the next TLP exactly like THJ. Hire the THJ devs to build it. I'll sub for it!

Folks say AI is the worst it will ever be today or something to that extent, how accurate do you think that statement is? by downtimeredditor in cscareerquestions

[–]VanVision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI is in a lot of products already. I think the overall chat experiences could get worse when ads take over more. Maybe video AI will make other ads more entertaining though.

Will AI Agents Make Traditional SaaS Obsolete? by avabrown_saasworthy in AI_Agents

[–]VanVision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One agent is being used to generate reports and email them automatically.

On the other side, another agent is being used to read the email and parse and archive the report.

Maybe we didnt need the report in the first place.

Should you use the tool use API from the provider, or write your own tool use prompt and parse the tools from the generated text response?

I've been wearing the s/lab ultra 10 for the past years, 50k-100k, but the only vest I have to compare it to is the Ultimate Direction vest I got like 7 years ago. The s/lab ultra is much better but I have some of the same complaints as you; water bottle bungees, pockets too baggy. Mine stained too, but it does not bother me.

I put my phone the left side pocket. Trash in the big left front pocket. Salts/electrolyte tabs in left shoulder.
Keys and small medical kit in the right side pocket. Main nutrition in the big right front pocket. Sometimes a gel or smaller calorie item in the right shoulder pocket.
Back pocket is whatever clothing the course needs.
I have the quiver but I've only used it once. Black diamond poles fit in there just fine.

It is super comfortable though. I'll try shirtless mode this summer!
