Look, say what you will about it, but right click editing a PHP file in an FTP client with upload-on-save is still the tightest and fastest feedback loop I've ever had in my life. We actually don't know how to do this anymore as an industry.

It's brutal going back to the MacBook keyboard after a year+ of using the @FrameworkPuter 13 and the Lofree Flow84. The short travel never bothered me when I was all-in on the Mac, but now that I've lived with 1.5mm+ of key travel, I can't help think "how was this ever okay??" 😂

there are Vitess clusters that are 100PB in size doing over 50 million QPS. We have achieved linear scalability planetscale.com/blog/one-mil… so the constraining factor is compute availability. the largest Vitess cluster i know of has 70,000 servers in it.
Note to Self: Focus on what you can do *right now*. There are things that are wrong no one can change.
I still dont get it. It is now effectively two different Engine. But Unity does not allow Hong Kong user to download Unity 6 and instead force them to use Unity China?

The 16ProMax and 16Plus have the same battery capacity, and yet the ProMax battery life is 10%+ longer, with a 120Hz Panel. I have yet to see a plausible explanation on the internet. I mean no one even asked the question in the first place.
