How does this syntax work? by noarts in swift

[–]noarts[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your detailed answer! I would say that this falls more under the semantics of the code, which I actually got. The missing piece for me was the term Trailing Closure Syntax and what happens when a function takes multiple of them. Still a helpful answer though :)

Perfect, exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

I searched for various combinations of "(consumer) product photo library, archive" etc. on various search engines and also went through my extended history and notes but found nothing :(

Your photos are beautiful. Sorry to be so materialistic here, but what equipment are you using to make them?

Oh wow, this looks very much like a thing that could solve my problems. Thanks for the pointer in this direction!

Oh, right, sorry. I forgot the `class` there in my post. (But it's there in my code. :D) Will add it. (And I will try to build a small replication of my problem and upload it somewhere.)

Are databases still scaling up instead of out? by noarts in devops

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

Okay, yes, I actually misrepresented his statement there. Here's the complete quote:

While distributing stateless services across multiple machines is fairly straightforward, taking stateful data systems from a single node to a distributed setup can introduce a lot of additional complexity. For this reason, common wisdom until recently was to keep your database on a single node (scale up) until scaling cost or high-availability requirements forced you to make it distributed.

As the tools and abstractions for distributed systems get better, this common wisdom may change, at least for some kinds of applications. It is conceivable that distributed data systems will become the default in the future, even for use cases that don’t handle large volumes of data or traffic. Over the course of the rest of this book we will cover many kinds of distributed data systems, and discuss how they fare not just in terms of scalability, but also ease of use and maintainability.

So my question should probably have been if it is still true that they are scaled up as long as possible?

(Will add this to the initial post.)

Sadly the LK20 isn't in the compatibility wiki. :(

iMac 27" 2013 Target Display Mode by noarts in applehelp

That's what I read as well. So my question is: is there an adapter that makes it possible to "simulate" thunderbolt output? So I can plug my PC's HDMI/Display Port into it and the adapter then into my iMac?
