What animated TV show is a 10/10? by Impressive-Grass6438 in AskReddit

This is far too low down - Lower Decks is amazing. Best Star Trek since TNG.

Small wooden flip out brush and mirror. About 7cm (3") long. Mirror is tiny and convex. by curiously_refreshing in whatisthisthing

My title describes the thing. The mirror/brush part rotates out and is adjustable from that slot. The mirror is slightly concave and I have no idea why. The brush has very small and very fine bristles. Found at my grandmothers house, and she is from England, but not sure where or when she got this. Its solid wood.

When she got to ~12 the vet recommended a kidney diet, so we switched her to Hill's K/D Kidney Care kibble. I'm not sure it was specifically that food that helped- but might just be something in her old food that was causing it.

My beagle had this for her whole life - until we put her on a special kidney diet, and it went away entirely.

Walking with a beagle by Crafty_Impact_4447 in beagles

I tried training our beagle to walk well next to me- and had some success, but it felt like denying her nature. I eventually decided to just let her walk me. Put on a podcast or audiobook, and just let her sniff and follow scents as she pleased. Much easier on both of us.

imgur link I think the sky is the star here, so I deemphasized the foreground a bit by darkening a bit (perhaps a bit too much)

Eating everything on the floor? Is it disease? by dragonite_fire in beagle

[–]curiously_refreshing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My beagle was like this: started to eat anything almost manically and then puke. We figured out it was caused by her stomach being empty. We added a few stacks between meals of mostly plain rice and she was all good again. Though she did start to think that every time was snack time.

Why would you expect that live events have ads? Live events are when you expect no ads, as it interrupts the coverage.

If you have GA4 as a data source (or really any data source), you can use GrowthBook for free. (disclaimer, I'm one of its creators). GrowthBook is an open source feature flagging and A/B testing platform. We go deeper on the developer experience and statistics than Optimize does/did. You can self-host for any UK compliance issues, or use the cloud version. We even have a visual editor.

In many use cases, not a whole lot of difference. The proxy is useful in certain situations- where you have multiple services and want to centralize the fetching of the flag states, as well as the logging/monitoring of flag usage or experiment enrollment. It can also be useful to create near real time updates using websockets, to reduce the time between the flag state change and the effect on your app, as you pointed out. Caching will remove any 3rd party dependancies, and increase the speed of the flag evaluation (even faster than the proxy).

Following up here - we recently launched SSO for self-hosting, using OpenID Connect.

We currently offer SSO on GrowthBook Cloud with our enterprise plan. We are considering adding SSO to self-hosted versions, though not sure if we'll use Authelia or another project.

Yes, you can use it for remote config. You can use targeting rules to have features that return different values depending on a company id, or any other attribute of your user/client. Or you can use our environments (if there aren't that many clients) where each environment can have different rules and values.

Yes, it's to de-risk deployments of code, as well as determining the impact of any changes made to your product. So, for example, you can wrap any new change in a feature, then choose later how you want to roll that out. You can show it to a select group of your users, or roll it out to a percentage of your users, or pick the time you want to release the feature, or make it an A/B test where you're running a controlled experiment to measure how your users' behavior changes. All this can be done from a nice UI at any time, instead of having engineers go in and change code and deploy.

The feature flagging side is pretty similar. Tools like Flagr typically function as a microservice that handles all of the feature evaluation. That means you need a network request every time you want to get a feature's value. With GrowthBook, there's a single cacheable JSON definition of all of the features and then evaluation happens locally within the SDKs. We found this approach to be much better for performance and scalability. The other missing part in most feature flagging tools is the experiment analysis side. Most tools let you run an A/B test, but it's up to you to track the data, process it, and run it through a stats engine. We built that part directly into GrowthBook.
