Putting a tracking pixel in a readme is a new one, wow. I would never want to clone that project in case I accidentally open the readme

Thank you for this comment. I relate to every one of your points.

Especially the silent/forced updates. It can be SO bad in games. since the OP is about blizzard- look at hearthstone. Its a card game where you can’t trade, and the cards you sank money into can just get nerfed when the next expansion comes out. It amazes me this is acceptable to some.

What are you monitoring your monolith for? For microservices you can monitor specific metrics related to the exact function, and perform health checks, scaling events accordingly.

For monoliths you cant be as specific. “Is the response a 500” doesn’t really cut it. “Average request latency” for scaling doesn’t cut it when some of your queries are reads and then some are completely unrelated mass joins.

As a consumer id just wait for indie games and smalltime books to become free. This ruins the demand and people have much less incentive to create. In general taking money away and giving it to a government is not a productive solution and definitely hinders creativity

As someone who shares this opinion, its refreshing to see this shared online. Many onlinr opinions state that hoarding is an end goal. but I agree its far more rewarding to give back when you have more than enough

It always amazes me that reddit wants to completely ruin their product by forcing you to download an app which has no adult content.

I have to buy many online goods in USD with my devalued currency. Isn’t that the same?

Are there any real world examples?

This looks extremely useful but reading some of this still leaves me questioning how will I know when to reach for perf out of the toolbox
