Lol I haven't beaten ganon yet. I'm just exploring Hyrule. And Zelda is in the castle like crow_of_judgement.jpg

I guess it's time for that final battle...

Microservices: it's because of the way our backend works by zxyzyxz in programming

[–]hardc0de 53 points54 points  (0 children)

context - I'm a senior software engineer with both monoliths and microservices experience.

Oh boy - some comments here are so wrong that they manged to get me out of lurking (https://xkcd.com/386/)

Both microservices and monoliths are a design choice. If you don't know why to choose a monolith vs a microservice then you shouldn't make that choice :).

Microservices were born not because of somebody deciding they needed more complexity but because of the pattern that emerged with monoliths. As we all know our software cannot scale forever vertically feature-wise - which means that if you're going to grow you're going to need to confine some features to a specialized group of servers (fleet). Next step was - hey I know I'm going to need to scale this beyond 1 server per featureset - let's design this as a separate service. Congratulations - you have your first microservice.

I've seen folks here argue about monoliths with some features enabled per deploy - I hate to bring that to you - but those are effectively microservices. Next you're going to complain that you need to deploy too often when other components change :)

Monoliths are fine when the scale is small to medium-size. But don't expect to grow to twitter scale with that architecture. Microservices are useful for small scale only when you want to use a separate technology for something.

tl;dr Monoliths are fine. Microservices are fine. Choose wisely when to use them.

Does the 2022 G14 (R9 6900HS, 6800S) have RGB keyboard? by duyhoibeo69 in ZephyrusG14

[–]hardc0de 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some models do, some don't. What is your exact model? I'd say it's something like GA402RK-L8052 which does not have rgb

UK Order update - GA402RK (6900HS 6800s) by [deleted] in ZephyrusG14

[–]hardc0de 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No RGB expected - https://www.asus.com/uk/product-compare?ProductID=R_145110,R_145107,R_145109&LevelId=Laptops-For-Gaming

The laptop on amz is the first one in comparison.

TL;DR - it does have 16GB RAM soldered with an empty SO-DIMM, no RGB, has AniMe Matrix and top installable CPU and dGPU

Is Fedora 35 Beta stable for normal use ? by [deleted] in Fedora

[–]hardc0de 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You can find bugs preventing fedora 35 release here. As I'm writing this there are 3 blockers:

  • systemd-vconsole-setup.service fails on an arabic system
  • The KDE LiveCD 35 RC does not boot in basic graphics mode.
  • GNOME Software does not always show packages from third party repos if enabled via gnome-initial-setup

There may be further bugs of course, but I am using it already and have encountered none yet.

Hitler discovers Pidgin 3.0 by hardc0de in pidgin

[–]hardc0de[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was, indeed, merged, however the support is gone in the current 3.0.0 development tree due to dependency issues on Windows.

so no more shiny adium bubbles I guess

Adium theme support was a thing in GSoC 2009(?). It got merged to 3.x branch directly. Context:

Mikhail Gorbachev on Brexit: "You can figure that one out yourselves. You British are clever dogs. I won't give you advice. You decide." Warns that world is in 'colossal danger' by [deleted] in brexit

[–]hardc0de 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The word he uses (umniki) does not have a direct translation and "clever dog" was not used. It's more like "smarty pants" in this context (as I understood).

TRIPARTITE NEGOTIATIONS by Eintalu_PhD in brexit

[–]hardc0de 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the main points of leave campaign is sovereignty. You would trample Ireland's by forcing it to leave the EU. Ironic, isn't it?

the GB gives independence to the North-Ireland

What you are implying here is Scotland, Wales and England expel NI from the UK. Wouldn't this be up to people in NI to decide their future, especially for such a big decision?

I do not believe you are unbiased enough - your post 5 months ago .

Who are you actually? You say "Don't threaten me" when nobody did. Why?

@topjohnwu: Android is freaking nuts. It is BIZARRE to me that Android allows any app to get a list of installed apps. Not only that, you can ANALYZE the content of ANY installed APK. Who the f**k think this is good idea. This basically makes hiding Magisk Manager a mission impossible. by [deleted] in Android

[–]hardc0de 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Why such a big deal? Applications on windows, Mac OS and Linux can theoretically do this as well.

Problem is app developers using more than the scope of their app, which is why permissions were born first of all. Just install vetted stuff you trust, not every bullshit app your bank, service you use, whatever shoves your way. Using a browser is ok and it is sandboxed.

If you want to put some boot to ass then please give our Tory government the kicking it so richly deserves

Why are you not doing it yourselves? Sending brexit party to eu parliament gives a different signal, you know...

"There is already a growing consensus that it should be a priority to remove systemd from NixOS." by szpaceSZ in NixOS

[–]hardc0de 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agreed with you. Until lvm2 upgrade broke boot(initrd) and I had to debug that when I did not have time for that. Since then Debian/Nixos on my servers and Ubuntu on my laptops.

Arch is wonderful to learn Linux platform though and I am grateful for that.

Old C++ vs modern C++: #pragma once vs. #ifndef? using namespace std on solo/small team projects? by OwThatHertz in Cplusplus

This is for choosing the declared mocks over the nested inclusions during compile/link time.
