Like robots by Boston Dynamics, it starts with wheels, and now it can parkour. So maybe next iteration will be using legs

“Great men are forged in fire. It is the privilege of lesser men to light the flame.”

All of your points only considers the community itself, which is not my argument.

I’m mostly approach this from technical standpoint. It’s impossible to have 100% uptime if there’s no horizontal scaling capability. For example on updating version, currently the instance will need to shut down for maintenance until it’s finished and usually there’s still some issue to fix. If horizontal scaling exist, the instance can update server (or add additional one), move the traffic a bit to test it, and then fully rollout if everything going well.

Why not? I don’t see the drawback to develop ability to do horizontal scaling. If the instance owner doesn’t want to add additional servers, it’s up to them. Obviously they paid for it if they decide to add.

Just to be clear, horizontal scaling means multiple servers handling same instance, it can be the backend service to allow handling more traffics, or multiple db to reduce database loads.

Additionally it allows high availabilities, so if one of the backend service is down (either unexpectedly or do rolling update) the other service can still active so the instance can still be accessed by users

They used to be good and really like a question and answer, only for past few years it turned to advertising

Not just remove, use it as reference

until beehaw defederate your own instance

Some password hashing methods has max characters length. For example Bcrypt has 72 max length. This is mostly to avoid taking too much time encrypting user input.

If there’s no limit someone can technically froze the server by inputting large password (not because the request is big, but the process is exponentially takes more CPU process the longer characters it needs to compute)

No!

Sony XM series have wired mode. Although the noice cancel feature still needs battery

Their website and application also use API, not always the same as the one used by third party apps, but usually API on default is used internally, which is why there’s a distinction of Public API and Internal API

But OpenAI already has a monetization system now, and last update they reduce the price
