Exactly! I've reasearched some semaglutide compounding pharmacies and it terrifies me that their semaglutide source is top secret; never disclosed. Where's it coming from and what are people really injecting?

It's great to see support for foreign keys, at least for FKs in the same shards. I've been wanting to explore PlanetScale (Vitess) for a while and the lack of support for FK was a blocker because the application currently relies on them.

I wonder how practical it'd be to attempt using this now, or would I have to go through too many hoops or footguns?

Definitely very easy to digest.

This looks fake. I just imagine someone shorting VMware’s stock on the other side of the keyboard… but who knows.

Thank you for sharing this! I realized it was really hard to verbalize what I wanted from Stable Diffusion, so will be trying some of these and see what it comes up with.

I got a bunch of alerts about my droplets being down. Also couldn’t log in to DO’s dashboard. status.digitalocean.com showed everything up and running…

I feel like this would be even more helpful to me if it would only show me videos of people's faces while they are pronouncing the word, so I can see their mouth positions.

I wonder if they will make these available for GKE node pools at some point; sounds like being able to autoscale with these would make sense.

I'm sorry, but this looks terrible... I can't imagine seeing the average person driving this at all.
