I’m actually very surprised this happened at Walmart.
I worked on an adjacent project with one of their teams many years ago. I was very surprised by how zero tolerance their policies were about receiving anything.
It may have been the team I was working with, but I remember none of them allowed us to buy them coffee from the shop in our lobby when they visited.
If you're using these for purely inference (which is what the 5000 seems like it's tuned for) the vram's the real bottleneck so you get a similar bang for your buck using last gen's cards vs. the bleeding edge.
I've also found the crypto crash has dumped a bunch of these well-worn cards on the market you can pick up a bit cheaper.
As a Canadian, I find the whole saga of how our government works with the technology sector bat-shit crazy.
All of the media's coverage up here is disingenuously about tech overreach and not about how their lobbyists tried to double-dip on revenue (both demanding an estimated $329M/year[1] from tech companies, while also receiving the ad revenue from ++1.9B pageviews[2]).
The problem is there'll probably be some kind of settlement between the government, news companies, and tech. But while this drags on, the larger oligopoly of news outlets will come out alive, while smaller news outlets are really going to suffer financially.
If you want to read more about our government's recent brain-dead policies on technology you can look up:
C-11: A streaming services bill that mandates Canadian content on foreign streamers. Not horrible, but also a great way to have "This service is not available in your region." notices in your country.
DST: A "just because" global digital services tax of 3%, which will definitely be passed onto consumers, if not lead to service blockages in Canada.
C-18: ↑ This bill. Pretty much a shakedown by the government and media companies.
> This is coming from a registered liberal party member, who's socially liberal and is consistently confronted with the thought that I may actually be conservative.
A first-past-the-post system ends up in a two-party system, which means a big tent progressive party and a big tent conservative party; which in turn means nobody is fully happy with either option.
This isn't to say that multiparty democracies always function well, either. Belgium basically had no government (as in a party elected with a mandate to govern) for two years, from 2018 to 2020.
We're currently in a minority government situation here in Canada. First past the post makes no sense at all, majority of the votes get thrown out, and the party that actually won the vote didn't get the most seats.
I'm quite happy with the European content that Netflix is mandated to offer in our region. Some of what turned to be my favorite shows were Icelandic, British, Belgian or French and I'm quite sure we wouldn't have had them otherwise.
It’s perfectly normal to not agree with everything the people you voted for does.
Unless you find yourself in a position of always being a victim, and are perpetually contrarian just for the sake of it, you’re not likely a conservative.
We don’t have a “conservative” party that targets slow, but calculated progress.
Disclaimer - I work on Hasura, so I won't comment too much on which is better.
They're all similar flavors of producing realtime results - which take similar, but different, methods to their approach.
My understanding (please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong):
- Supabase Realtime uses WAL.
- Hasura Streaming Subscriptions uses a query which will be append-only (could be a sort-by or also WAL).
- Hasura Live Queries uses interval polling, refetching, and multiplexing.
- Supabase uses Postgres RLS for authorization, while Hasura uses an internal RLS system which composes queries (which allows for features like the multiplexing above).
- All 3 use websockets for their client communication.
Really like the idea - think there's a super decent market for this kind of solution.
Only thing I'd be aware about though is making sure you're on the right side of licensing for all the vendors you're using (/ possibly who you've talked with to make sure the usage is ok).
Off the top I saw N8N on the homepage who are a little more strict about their licensing for cloud vendors. There's also Airbyte and Redpanda who use Elastic and BSL licenses to try and deter cloud vendors from packaging some parts of their services.
Yes, indeed, we are monitoring this and of course we have removed all SSPL softwares from our catalog.
Airbyte license is MIT, and deploying elasticsearch as part of another software should not be an issue (but I'm not a lawyer and might be wrong), from my understanding what's forbidden is to offer Elasticsearch as a SaaS service but using it as part of a solution like Airbyte is OK. We don't offer Elasticsearch but we offer Opensearch as an alternative.
N8N seems to be under Apache 2 license with Commons Clause (https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n/blob/master/LICENSE.md), I do see now that there is a specific clause about hosting fees, we do charge for management fees and also hosting fees. I'll try to contact them directly and check if we can sign a contract with them, if not it will definitely be removed from our catalog.
We really want to be on the good side of this, we want to create a sustainable stream of revenue to open-source authors, not killing them. So we will definitely comply with licenses and law.

Hi Dear
I'm looking for front-end developer position with React.js.
My last position has finished and I'm ready to start immediately for new one.
Thanks

While general best practice is that you version your changes in git and deploy migrations with something like FlyWay I've also run into the problem of needing some form of 'audit log' to make sure no DDL changes are being made in prod (and if they are, moving them over into version control).
I have a migration which is something like this one: https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/doc-detail/169290.html which uses a trigger on `ddl_command_end` in PG to copy over the query which made the DDL change from `pg_stat_activity` to a new audit schema to stash. Can definitely help with maintenance and finding out what happened when.
The self-hosted community version has full access to JWT and webhook validation.
The SSO listed is a feature to integrate with the Hasura Cloud Dashboard for logging in and managing projects. Think Okta => Hasura Cloud => Hasura Project (Instance). We'll definitely take a look at wording it to make it more clear.
