I did an informal poll across a few engineering communities asking people what's deployed in production, not what they're evaluating.

kong is the most common for pure api gateway workloads. Strong plugin ecosystem, predictable operationally, well-documented enterprise tier. kafka and ai agent governance require separate tools.

gravitee manages rest apis, kafka event streams, and ai agent traffic from one governance layer, which is the differentiator for teams that need all three without separate tooling per traffic type. Flat-rate pricing for unlimited api calls is one of the reasons many teams use it.

aws api gateway is in every aws-native stack but consistently described as a "routing layer" not a management platform. Works for lambda, limited for comprehensive governance.

apigee shows up mostly as an ongoing migration context. The product itself isn't the complaint, gcp lock-in is, and it surfaces later than procurement teams expect.

tyk has a dedicated following for self-hosted open-source deployments with lower operational overhead than kong. Smaller community, generally positive sentiment from users.

The teams with the least operational pain had committed to one platform regardless of which one it was. Running multiple gateways, even for documented legitimate reasons, correlates with higher operational overhead and slower incident response than the tool choice itself.

Everytime I reboot my pc it takes almost 3 minutes for it to open and its driving me nuts, originally this pc had a UEFI problem wherein it enables CSM everytime it boots which makes it unable for me to access the PC without turning that off first.

After I reinstalled Windows the issue eventually disappeared but the PC takes a long ass time to open, like 2-3 minutes. I've never encountered this issue before because I've used Intel Systems for a long time now

Specs are as listed:

CPU - Ryzen 5 3400GE

Mobo - ASRock B450 Steel Legend

Ram - Kingston 32GB 2400mhz Ram (16x2)

GPU -GTX 1660 Super

SSD - Biwin NV7400 Gen 4.0 1TB SSD

My start date got moved up and now HR is asking for CPR and first aid certification before I can come in. Care home off Mission Boulevard. I've been googling and there are a ton of options but I genuinely cannot tell which ones are the real deal vs the ones where you print a card at home. AHA certified is what they specified.

Does anywhere in Hayward actually do this or am I looking at a drive to Oakland?

I’m looking for an Open Source alternative for our Infra Centre. We’ve been using Chargebee but the cost/quality that we’re getting from it isn't great for our current multi-dimensional usage (RAM + GPU + Storage) and projected growth for this year. Messed around with Kill Bill and its an oss dream but its pretty damn complex. We mostly want open source so we can have full control of the data but it’s not a deal breaker.

Also I know this is probably going to be a magnet for bot spam so please downvote any AI slop or links from “founders” who want to “help”. Thanks!

The weirdest part about looking for a new place is realizing you’re not just searching for more space or cheaper rent. You’re searching for a version of yourself that doesn’t wake up angry. I’ve lived beside a main road for almost 3 years, and I kept calling it normal. Bad sleep? Normal. No energy after work? Normal. Cancelling plans because my brain feels like it’s been rubbed with sandpaper? Normal. Feeling weirdly depressed every Sunday night because I know the buses start again at 5am? Also, normal apparently. I tried everything: magnesium, blackout curtains, moving the bed away from the window, even meditating before bed, but nothing really worked.

Then, out of sheer desperation, I bought a pair of Soundcore A30 sleep earbuds to block out the noise, and after a few days, I noticed a surprising improvement. I wasn’t expecting magic, but after getting used to them, they helped me sleep through the first few quiet nights without waking up already irritated. It’s not perfect—it’s still urban noise—but they made a bigger difference compared to all the other sleep advice I tried. I now wake up less exhausted and even catch myself feeling, dare I say, a little less grumpy in the morning.

But here’s the kicker: I’m not sure if this is enough to avoid moving, or if it’s just a temporary fix. Anyone here had to balance the need for quiet with the sheer cost of moving? Did the Soundcore A30 make enough of a difference for you, or was it just postponing the inevitable?

Triple A studios get sloppier by the day, seriously I think the future of gaming is left at the hands of indie devs because the only notable game that a triple a studio has going on right now is Subnautica 2 and GTA 6. That's it.

AC; Black Flag? fucking rehash

Lego Batman? shit is unoptimized as hell

Forza 6? what happened to 5 lmao

Black Ops 7? fucking ai slop man

Seriously, back then these studios were like the pinnacle of the gaming industry, wtf changed!

I don’t think fitness can be used as an excuse. If a player who meets the requirements to play still cannot handle the intensity of Premier League matches even with adequate rotation that itself is a lack of ability. To make matters worse his mentality is shockingly poor.

He cannot even do his basic job properly and as a Spanish midfielder he still makes mistakes on the simplest back passes and distribution when the ball is at his feet. Let us wait for Timber to come back before considering using Zubimendi in specific scenarios.

The weekend disappears in one place: trying to pick a framework, configure it, add skills, and sort hosting all at the same time without any of those things actually being ready. Nothing works and you can't tell which part is broken.

Framework choice first. Hermes and openclaw are the two main options. Hermes is built around persistent memory and a self-improvement loop that makes it better at your specific workflow over time. Openclaw has the bigger community library, 5,700+ pre-built skills on clawHub, and supports more messaging channels out of the box. Pick based on what you actually need, not which one has the better GitHub readme.

Before you open the framework docs: figure out your infrastructure. Self-hosted means a Linux VPS, Node.js v22+, Docker, and SSL config, minimum 2-3 hours if you're comfortable with it. If you'd rather just have it running, managed hosting gets you there in under fifteen minutes. I set mine up through clawdi and was live before I finished a cup of coffee, for whatever that's worth.

Telegram first, before any skills or automations. Just get the agent responding to a message in Telegram. That's the whole goal for day one. Verify the connection works before you add anything on top of it.

One automation for the first full week. Morning briefing, inbox summary, something concrete. Watch if it runs correctly. Everything else comes after you trust the setup.

The more time passes, the more I believe that with water, a problem doesn’t have to become serious before it starts affecting you. If it’s already putting you off drinking, cooking, or making coffee, then it’s already impacting your daily life.

Student teacher here, finishing up my placement and trying to make a real decision rather than just copying what my cooperating teacher does.

The school I'm placed at uses a gamified typing platform and kids love it, engagement is high, they ask to do it, I've heard students reference their typing game outside of class which I've never heard with any other academic software.

But my cooperating teacher mentioned, kind of offhandedly, that she's not sure the game-loving kids are actually improving their technique, they're improving at the game, which isn't the same thing, and she's been using this program for two years and can't point to clear evidence that it's moved the needle on actual typing proficiency in a way she can show anyone.

I'm going to have my own classroom next year and I'm trying to figure out whether to prioritize the engagement or the rigor, and whether that's even the right frame or if I'm missing something.

Neuer is already inconsistent and clearly past his peak. He will almost certainly not be reliable next season. Bayern’s financial power also cannot keep up with the big spenders. If they fail to deliver next year, they will only have regrets the year after. Dias will be 31, Kane 35, and Kimmich 33. Their veteran core only has about two more years at this level. For Bayern to reach the semi-finals this year is already a huge achievement. They did it over two legs against terrible refereeing, with a squad completely lacking in depth. I hope the Bayern board goes all in this summer transfer window.

Im currently having a problem, I built my system using a 3400 GE + B450M Steel Legend, but it wont boot at all.

The only thing it does is, open for a bit, then close, then open again. Its boot looping! The keyboard doesnt respond and the monitor doesnt produce a display even when connected to the iGPU. I tried different ram and then booting single sticks, nothing!

When i bought the board the seller mentioned that he upgraded to the latest bios version which is 10.50 and he had a 5700g, the cpu was in stock for a while but I secured it using the original packaging and box, it has no bent pins whatsoever either. So I was thinking this may be a BIOS issue?

Asrock b450m steel legend + 10.50 bios

Laundry was always the thing falling off the end of my list. Dishes I could handle. Floors I could handle. But laundry would creep up to two weeks deep, I'd see the pile every Sunday evening, decide tomorrow, and then repeat that same internal negotiation for another seven days. By the end I was rotating the same three outfits while a mountain sat in the corner judging me.

Started using a pickup service a couple months ago and the time it gives back is real. I get my Sunday back. That sounds small but it isn't when Sunday is the only buffer day before the week starts again. The pile isn't there waiting anymore. The decision isn't there waiting anymore.

I think I underestimated how much background attention it was taking up even when I wasn't actively doing it. It was always sitting there in the corner of my brain, this thing I owed myself and kept defaulting on. Removing it didn't just give me hours back, it gave me whatever the equivalent is of mental RAM.
