pseidemann commented on Graceful Shutdown in Go: Practical Patterns   victoriametrics.com/blog/... · Posted by u/mkl95
eberkund · 4 months ago
I created a small library for handling graceful shutdowns in my projects: https://github.com/eberkund/graceful

I find that I typically have a few services that I need to start-up and sometimes they have different mechanisms for start-up and shutdown. Sometimes you need to instantiate an object first, sometimes you have a context you want to cancel, other times you have a "Stop" method to call.

I designed the library to help my consolidate this all in one place with a unified API.

pseidemann commented on What Is Entropy?   johncarlosbaez.wordpress.... · Posted by u/ainoobler

I sometimes ponder where new entropy/randomness is coming from, like if we take the earliest state of universe as an infinitely dense point particle which expanded. So there must be some randomness or say variety which led it to expand in a non uniform way which led to the dominance of matter over anti-matter, or creation of galaxies, clusters etc. If we take an isolated system in which certain static particles are present, will there be the case that a small subset of the particles will get motion and this introduce entropy? Can entropy be induced automatically, atleast on a quantum level? If anyone can help me explain that it will be very helpful and thus can help explain origin of universe in a better way.

I saw this video, which explained it for me (it's german, maybe the automatic subtitles will work for you): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrJViSH6Klo

He argues that the randomness you are looking for comes from quantum fluctuations, and if this randomness did not exist, the universe would probably never have "happened".

Shift+click or Ctrl+click works if someone doesn't have a middle button (I forget the exact combo bc it's just in muscle memory from daily use)

for mac:

cmd+click: new tab in the background

cmd+shift+click: new tab and focus that new tab

"Map of the Observable Universe" (big difference, and the actual title on the page itself)

The biggest difference in existence.
