you're in luck, bitwarden has got a cli see: https://bitwarden.com/help/cli/

Really nice to see BFT starting to be taken seriously in CRDT research. I had done some research in this area last year and came to a lot of the same solutions (i.e. BRB protected CRDTs when dealing with VClock based CRDTs):

https://github.com/davidrusu/bft-crdts

We ended up moving away from VClock crdts entirely for our work and going with grow-only hash-graph CRDTs as they have don't need the BRB overhead (as Martin has found in his research as well).

Isn't the stream supposed to be in the middle, away from the melty bits?

Yes, but the really hot part is not emitting visible light. ;)

If you're curious about why the bottom glows: ExB drift pushes electrons to the bottom. I'm sure that doesn't make sense, but unfortunately there isn't really a shortcut to understanding here. Some books are pretty accessible though (I'm a fan of The Future of Fusion Energy).

And, of course, there is always the freely available IAEA textbook:

What would happen if you stood in that

You contacting the plasma would cause it to collapse, but you would already by cooked. It's a chicken and egg question, because a plasma is never going to get started with a person inside; it needs a near perfect vacuum.

Not the same thing, but Russian scientist tested a proton beam with his head and lived to tell the tale. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatoli_Bugorski

You would die

I read through the whole article and didn't realize the video was there until I read this comment chain. I had just glanced past the video assuming it was an ad.

> n ∈ N (p), where N (g) is the set of gnomes who can hear g, including himself. Note that h ∈ N (g) ⇐⇒ g ∈ N (h).

> Each gnome g tracks the spread of the proposal in the following way: once all his neighbors n ∈ N (g) say their k-neighborhood (or bigger) is aware of the proposal

If I understand this correctly, a single node crashing would stall it's entire neighbourhood. @gritzko, can you confirm?

Nope. Missed a heartbeat means gone. We discuss churn later in the article. Its effects are complicated, but as long as d holds, everything else holds.

Ok, the red flag to me is the reliance on all neighbours responding to a proposal.

Suppose we have a faulty node heart-beating correctly but not responding to proposals, or selectively responding to proposals.

This would seem to imply that dishonest nodes have full control over which decisions are made.

see later in the article, Ctrl+F "mushrooms"

I will stop looking into this now, I have to get back to my work. The colorful language doesn't make it easy for someone who follows the literature to review your idea.

I still have doubts that you can handle a dropped message or how much control a faulty node has over decisions, but I'll leave that to you to work out.

These companies should realize they are playing an iterated prisoners dilemma game with their customers. Just because your services aren't right for me today, doesn't mean I won't come back in the future and pay for your services again now that I know what you do.

But I doubt I'd come back if my last experience with a company has been a bad cancellation procedure.

> Just because your services aren't right for me today, doesn't mean I won't come back in the future and pay for your services again

I suspect that it is quite rare though for someone to actually come back.

Wrong attitude, and wrong. If I am trying out a few things that don't pan out, I may want to cancel. Then I may want to come back in a few months. Also, this space is moving quickly, so if they aren't improving the product quickly then they will die quickly, so I am sure the people using these tools are trying things out every now and then. Also, you are tainting your word of mouth. Just because I cancel doesn't mean I can't recommend it to someone else who may have different needs. But if it's a pain to cancel I won't be doing that.

I've been in and out of so many services! The fact that it is easy makes me come back again to many of them.

And still, you don't want to spend your support team's time helping customers cancel their subscriptions.

On top of that, you don't want them complaining that they cannot easily stop the service in online forums nor to their co-workers.

Varies by business, for sure.

I'd say the chance is much higher for B2B businesses. Say my Shopify store fails so I cancel my subscription. But I'll likely come back and try my luck again with Shopify on my next idea since I've learned the platform.

I have cancelled and come back on a number of services, both personal and for work.

I have NEVER come back to ANY service I had to call to cancel.

What about word-of-mouth recommendations? If a service doesn't work for me and I cancel, I may still recommend it to someone else. Not so much if I know they're going to hate me for it if they try to cancel.

With the risk of generalizing, this is what I do with some streaming services. I subscribe then cancel after 2-3 months after I've finished watching what I was interested in. I do this with HBO, Showtime, Hulu, Netflix, etc..

I do the same with Leetcode, cancelling my subscription after I'm done prepping then resurrecting it if needed.

Someone will be much more likely to come back though given that they want to, if they know they won’t be held hostage.

3% conversion on a product that costs $20k is normal? I don't think so.

As to your cynical meta-analysis, these people are doing something really difficult. I'm very happy to celebrate with them in any of their little victories, good on them! I hope to see more from them in the future

When writing that up I was looking for a structure who's natural partial order could be neatly laid out in 2-dimensions.

But it seems this is not very clear, I'll take another look around for a more intuitive structure.

Maintainer here, it's meant to be a visual representation of a 2-tuple of natural numbers.

But I get your point, there was another commentator here who expressed similar frustrations. When I find some time, I'll see about picking a clearer example for the README

I say great work in coming up with any visual example at all.

Visualizing multi-dimensional merges isn't easy. :)

That said, maybe an additional example of merging JSON blobs might be more intuitive for some.

then maybe it should say:

> a 2-tuple like structure that stores cubes in each slot.

instead of

> a 2-tuple like structure that stores cubes in two slots.

The flowing also confused me:

> It allows us to store a value and resolves concurrently set values by keeping both values.

"both" indicates the concurrency can only happen between two parties. I think saying "keeping all values" is more accurate.
