It won't get paywalled. Instead they will let it get useful then start injecting ads into it once people trust it.

Something to consider is a monolith can have different entry points and a focused area of work. Like my web application monolith can also have email workers, and background job processers all with different container specs and scaling but share a code base.

And coming from a background where I work heavily with Postgres a bunch of smaller segregates databases sound like a nightmare data integerity wise. Although I'm sure it can be done cleanly there are big advantages with having all your tables in one database.

Imo if your doing it right your monolith is also broken up into chunks that are segmented with clear defined apis and well tested (apis in this context are whatever your public functions/method/top level objects). With clean internal apis and properly segmented code it should be easy to read and do what you need.

I don't know if I agree with the infra level. What makes you say it has advantages there?

Biggest two advantages to micro services in my mind is you can use different tools / languages for different jobs and making it easier for multiple teams to work in parallel. Two biggest disadvantages in my mind is you lose code sharing and services become more siloded to different teams which can make it more difficult to roll out changes that need multiple services updated.

There is also the messaging problem with micro services. Message passing through the network rather then in memory. (Ex calling the user_service object vs user_service micro service)

One other big disadvantage of a monolith I also can think of is build time and developer tools can struggle with them. A lot more files/objects to keep track of and it can often make for an annoying development flow.

My preference is to monolith most things and only split off something into a micro service if you really get a big benefit from another tool or language for a specific task.

And in practice micro services become a fragile mess and takes longer to develop new products due to low code share and higher complexity.

Ofc not always the case, just like large monoliths can exist without being a mess.

I already switched to Firefox a while back. The new tracking system bullshit was the last straw. Chrome team is too busy trying to invasively track us rather then actually improving the browser for consumers.

Elasticsearch is also more rare then people realize.

The amount of Ukrainians dying right now will pale in comparison to those effected by the munitions.

The controversy around depleted uranium rounds is way overblown.

Even in Iraq the evidence is super inconclusive. And yes birth defects rose however the entire country basically collapsed for years and nothing clearly indicates it was the DU used.

Don't get me wrong, it's nasty stuff. But this is war, more people are getting killed by bombs then any DU related cancer can cause.

quality of life

When most people make their income in an area due to tourism then yes their QOL is directly tied to the industry.

Regardless of the issues it has the QOL is higher for residences due to it. You don't need to look far to see the effects of tourism on these places, just look at how these places fared during covid. Surprise, it was really fucking rough for most people in these high tourism areas.

There is also a reason the local government isn't working to prevent tourism. And it's because it generates a huge amount of money for the locals.

They don’t bring any value to the city.

You should check up on what percentage of the economy is tourism. I think you might be surprised.

Lol you're a fucking idiot. That is all there is to it.

Go back to x where most of the dumbass crypto bros like to hang out.

You keep repeating this. No one cares it hasn't happened and never will.

You don't need a block chain to sign a transaction and there is plenty of other ways to stop fraud. It's not happening because banks don't care to invest in fixing it.

Not to mention fixing this one issue isn't fucking web 3 lmao

Lmao people are taking this way too seriously.
