I'm at a point now where I'm not even a little interested in new frameworks. I want tried and tested. Preferably something that has been around for 15 years.

I ran Linux Mint on my 2015 MacBook Pro for a long time.

Maybe in the near future Linux will run well on Apple silicon as well.

Less wrong is created by Eliezer Yudkowsky. Someone who is very outspoken against AI development, because of the fears around AI destroying humanity. Once went as far as calling for the bombing of AI researchers and/or data centers, if I remember correctly.

Paying 3rd parties for gold, items, or xp was a Diablo 2 thing. They specifically designed Diablo 4 to make this hard to impossible.

You can't trade legendary items. They're account bound. And if you're trading lots of gold you get banned.

There is a base alternative, which I'm going to choose, and that's just to use social media less. Not going back to Reddit even if another alternative doesn't pop up.

And their app is so bad compared to the 3rd party ones. I quite liked RIF.

My 11 year account was just banned as well. I don't remember posting anything terrible recently. So not sure what's going on, but I won't be appealing or making a new account or going to the site anymore.

> we have chosen to put the burden for paying for those losses on all of the other banks

But isn't it likely to cause more bank runs if depositors lost money? So in a real sense, many other banks were saved from going under, by assuring depositors that their money is safe, whichever bank they're at.

My understanding is that other banks have massive unrealized losses as well, due to the steep interest rate increases. So they're all kind of vulnerable.

That is still routing. Not load balancing. The load balancing is only between pods of the same service.

Just because Nginx is doing it, doesn't mean it's load balancing. It's an extra function tacked onto a load balancer.

You can have more than one server per monolith.

I don't think you actually understand what microservices are. You don't put a load balancer to load balance between different services. A load balancer balances trafic between servers of the same service or monolith.

Microservices mean the servers of different services run different code. A load balancer only works together with servers running the same code.

For me Tailwind is sort of a shortcut to learning best practices. If I had to research and figure out best practices on my own it would take ages. Instead I can just see what Tailwind does. E.g. when to use em vs px. That kind of stuff.
