I am very curious as to how databases are used in the real world, whether you’re using MySQL and what not, how does it all come together in a real world business? Banking and gaming I know, but is it something that gets stored on data centres and then put into a VM?...
Yeah, even the file system is a hierarchical database, same with Windows registry, Internet domain registry too, not any database has to be SQL or relations based. There also are time based databases like influxdb for storing time based data, like metrics, logs
That’s a mental shortcut, the birds came from dinosaurs, the birds cladistically ARE dinosaurs; birds, dinosaurs and crocodilians are archosaurs, but birds are closest dinosaurs relatives
That’s because most of what we hear about “AI” is revolving around content “creation” controversies, but these are successfully used in analyzing wide data sets for scientific purposes, like finding new foldings of proteins, diagnosing cancer, reading ancient burned scrolls via etcxrays
A new South Dakota policy to stop the use of gender pronouns by public university faculty and staff in official correspondence is also keeping Native American employees from listing their tribal affiliations in a state with a long and violent history of conflict with tribes....
as the rest said lossless compression won’t really work on media files as they’re already compressed, there are probably some compression layers based on fuse you could mount over your cloud storage mount point (if it supports mounting in linux) and it’d be transparent, but in case of video files i believe your only solution is to reencode those files, handbrake is a nice GUI tool
I’ve been using Brave Search supplemented by Startpage for the past 2+ years. When I search for something, I want to get results for credible webpages, not a summary of unknown quality.

You lost me at “competitive (…) shooter”, I mean it sounds nice but I hate those trend games, like zombie games were all the rage a few years ago, then online survival games with base building, now fast paced competitive shooters are THE shit, on a side note sounds like yet another mtx money making machine
well yeah, but I’ve meant those hero/ability based ones, like Overwatch, Paladins or Valorant, not CS or R6 like ones, but yeah, you can argue TF2 is class/ability based
That’s a completely different thing, because it’s on purpose to match the “agenda” word, while “nonbinery” on purpose or not, is what someone who doesn’t read much would write, as a non native English speaker I’m kinda pedantic about such errors
I’m looking to make links stand out by any means. I find myself always opening them and having something like YouTube or other video services open and start playing while in places where that’s not ideal.
yup, it’s annoying when you open youtube link not knowing it’s youtube and now having to press back 10 times to go back, now i have to manually resume my music, in the re**it times Relay had a feature that showed a triangle in the preview corner, it’s color was red for videos, blue for images etc

While true, it’s not like there’s a monopoly on the market like in many other fields, I don’t like Musk but he’s a pioneer in many fields, besides SpaceX and Tesla he founded PayPal
Looks like a monopoly because SpaceX invented that niche and others lag behind RnD-wise, companies like Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and other companies behind the American space program are more in monopoly position and were more subsidized by the government than SpaceX ever was
