> I can't deploy as often as I want because some Sidekiq jobs run for several days, and deploying code means disrupting those jobs

Sounds like a use case for Cadence/Temporal-style fault-oblivious stateful execution with workflows. At last job, we did Unreal Engine deployments with pixel streaming at scale on a huge fleet of GPU servers, and the way we could persist execution state so hassle-free that the code would magically resume at the line right where it got interrupted was so astounding.

Tangentially related: what do you use today to make authn/z work for your web sites/applications where you only do first party login (i.e. you don't do social login etc.)? Create a `users` table in your database and implement the logic on your own? Or proxy to stuff like Ory Kratos and act as a translation layer through a network call?

If possible, collect fingerprint information through a side channel such as WebRTC or WebTransport, and use the info to correlate payments. Or, if the attack is executed from a non-browser environment, you can pattern match the order of TLS cipher suite to that sent by the attacker and block them straight away.

Does anybody know about the current status of SR-IOV for graphics cards? It is highlighted for NICs but I want to know if there is anything upcoming for GPUs too.

What's going on in this code for someone completely alien to C++?

I think the closest thing to "nanofunctions" today are V8 isolates.
