I'm really surprised no one mentioned Terra Invicta!
Basically if the Three Body Problem series was a Grand strategy game.
In terms of grand strategy it is quite grand. So massive and complex that even 100 hours in, I haven't completed a game.
That being said, it's so addicting. I haven't really played any other Sci-Fi games where you can take over multiple countries on Earth, take over other bodies in the solar system, and field space Navy to defend the planet.
It's just my client. Boost for Reddit doesn't appear to show it correctly. It's the opposite though. It just shows the text. Spoiling it for me.
I work for another distributed database company. I can say that it's much harder to convert cockroachDB customers than Yugabyte customers. Given that, I'd think that CockroachDB is likely the more vetted solution. Sure it's new (2017), but it's not THAT new.
IIRC, MySQL (and PosgreSQL) is pretty much limitted to a write/read-replica sort of horizontal scaling. Other SQL engines have better support for multi-master configurations.
However, these types of configurations are usually tied to licensing - especially for Microsoft SQL server and OracleDB.
As another commenter suggested, there is Yugabyte and CockroachDB as well - of those two I think CockroachDB is the more mature product. And they're one of the fiercest competitors for the company I work for too.
I cannot speak to "Battle Tested-ness" of CockroachDB, but given it's been around for a few years now, I don't think it's quite as risky as other comments have indicated. Also, they're doing something right if we haven't been able to convert many CockroachDB customers.
I'm on the Verizon variant of the software - so same version but with an .A1 tacked on.
I never claimed the article to do that. I claimed that despite the article not doxing anybody that the comments in the thread were.
And It was just one of many issues with the thread. It was very much. Also a hostile and toxic place to be. It stood head and shoulders over other similarly distasteful posts which is why I had issue with it.
As on Reddit, no one really cares about the not so popular posts. But this post was top of the all feed drawing in more distasteful discourse.
My position is that doxing is a form of violence. Violence in this definition is anything that restricts your choices. (Source: Philosophy Tube). Thus doxxing is violence since it forces one to move, react, or retaliate in response to the leaked information.
It is never acceptable to me - full stop.
The only entity with "Doxxing" permissions are government agencies with robust oversight such that this violence is only used when it's the lesser evil over not.
It seems that more and more people feel justified in their doxing. And that's what scares me. More more people feeling justified to perform a form of violence.
Because that's what doxing is, a form of non-physical violence.
I agree, I really preferred S1 for a lot of the "softer" aspects of character building. We really got an impressive look into a character I grew up admiring and it just made me admire Picard more. S2 and 3, while fine, definitely reverted a bit towards the "Star Trek" formula.
I don't! I personally love all the new Trek's. Even the ones folks love to hate. I'm just well aware of their contentiousness when writing the post.

Mid-air 2 Is inching towards release.

I've got alpha access and can assure you it does a great job of bringing the good ol' days of Tribes 2 back. Though there is a ways to go.
I never understood this one. I have ADHD and autism and I find gambling boring as hell. With maybe the exception of blackjack. Where my autistic brain tries to count cards.
I remember the day I turned 21. I decided to try out a casino. I spent $50 there and promptly left. Maybe I just lucked out and they didn't hook me with an easy win early on?
I'd much rather spend $50 on a video game that I can entertain myself with for hours.
