👏 more 👏 developers 👏 need 👏 to 👏 hear 👏 this

I can count on one hand the number of my clients over the past couple of years who haven't either over-architected for scale or were unnecessarily concerned about it (prior to coming to me for strategic advice, of course 😉).

You don't need to understand Distributional Little's Law to figure this out, it's obvious with primary school level math.

(screenshot excerpt from https://tailscale.com/blog/new-internet)

Screenshot from Tailscale's blog post with the following text highlighted: "I read a post recently where someone bragged about using kubernetes to scale all the way up to 500,000 page views per month. But that's 0.2 requests per second. I could serve that from my phone, on battery power, and it would spend most of its time asleep."

The New Internet

We don’t talk a lot in public about the big vision for Tailscale, why we’re really here. Usually I prefer to focus on what exists right now, and what we’re going to do in the next few months.

American Oversight
files emergency motion to prevent illegal Georgia state election board rules from taking effect

American Oversight sued following reports that Jeffares, King, and Johnston convened an illegal and last-minute meeting on July 12 to approve two controversial rule changes.

The meeting was held without proper notice and quorum, and reportedly against the advice of the state attorney general’s office.

One of the rules, proposed by Jeffares, requires county election boards to post daily online ballot counts on their websites.

Subsequent reporting revealed that the rule text was provided to Jeffares by Georgia GOP Chairman Josh McKoon in apparent coordinationwith the Republican National Committee.

The other rule purports to increase the number of partisan poll monitors observing ballot counting at Georgia tabulation centers, a reportedly similar version of which was also shared by the state’s Republican Party.

Prior to filing suit, American Oversight had sent a letter to the
state election board indicating it would consider legal action if the board failed to publicly declare, within 48 hours, that its July 12 meeting violated Georgia law and that any rules approved during the meeting were invalid.

The SEB has failed to respond to the letter and has not taken any steps or made any public commitment to walk back its unlawful conduct

Everyone has 3 months to convince 3 independent or republican voters, they know personally, to protect our rights and the vulnerable in this country. Have a conversation. Put them at the center of the narrative. Then explain how their actions will impact people they love and care for. Have patience. Lots of patience. Chip away at it. Prepare ahead of time for an opportunity. Do not speak to them like you do on social media. Address their concerns seriously.

People's lives depend on this.

@JoBlakely YES!! I just did this with my mom today. I had a talk with her about Nex, and she knows I’m nonbinary. She was receptive and is now open for me to send her more info about what is going. Make it about personal relationships, feelings, and shared core values. Avoid triggers words. Get vulnerable, appeal to emotion. I told my mom I was personally scared. It was so hard but we need to do this.

I'm sorry, but people don't care about "the vulnerable". The pandemic has clearly shown us that.
This needs to be sold, like anything, with the question "WHAT WILL IT DO FOR ME?" How will I (CAPITAL I) benefit from voting Democrat across the board?
Unless it's SOLD to people with clear examples of what it will mean TO THEM, America will be over. So will the rest of the world.

‘I know we will win – and how’: Ukraine’s top general on turning the tables against Russia

CanadaPlus 4 months ago • lemmy (AP)

Russia’s successes, meanwhile, came at a staggering human cost. The Kremlin’s casualties were “three times” higher than Ukraine’s, and “even more” in certain directions, Syrskyi said.

That's pretty good. If they reach 1:4 Russia is actually taking more attrition than them, even in raw population terms.

He said Kyiv had a plan to get back Crimea, more than a decade after Vladimir Putin illegally annexed it. Was this really feasible? “It’s realistic. Of course, it’s a big military secret,” the general said.

I can't wait, with this kind of teasing I'm expecting a modern Operation Overlord.

It's been extremely funny to watch Bitcoin people give up all their talk about a stateless libertarian future to ask the US federal government to spend a quarter-trillion dollars & become the largest holder of Bitcoin so they can dump their bags on the taxpayer.

If the US wants to maintain its current economic might in the future then acquiring 4 million BTC makes sense, that’s roughly the same % of total BTC as our current % of total global GDP

@JonChevreau This theme always reminds me of an old Globe & Mail article: https://archive.ph/J4X2J

An excerpt from the attached article:

Why hypocritical? Because the denizens of the crypto universe tout the benefits and joys of a decentralized - that is, government-free - financial system.
Except, of course, when criminals infiltrate that system and, all of a sudden, they want government prosecutors to lay criminal charges and trace and retrieve the stolen coins.
In other words, the victims in effect reluctantly admitted that DeFi - tech bro argot for decentralized finance - cannot really work without government involvement.

There. This is the base template for Sentinel 65X cartridge PCBs. It's physically compatible to Mega Drive cartridge cases.

Eventually, you will be able to write to such a thing using just the Sentinel 65X board itself -- but for a start, I'm going to design a small board that it plugs into to program it with a MiniPro.
