The hardcore technical folks seem to prefer things that don't alter the vanilla mechanics quite as much as Paper, it's true. But FWIW there are lots of farm and redstone designs th…

(Disclaimer: I'm on the Paper team, and Paper is the org under which Folia sits) I didn't watch the stream because I was offline when it happened, but I just want to note that the …

Microsoft has struct rules about the stuff you can sell for the server, and servers need to be EULA compliant. If they aren't they can get blacklisted or shutdown. People do buy pl…

(Disclaimer: I'm on the Paper team, and Paper is the org under which Folia sits.) This is true to an extent, yes. Chunk generation can be real tough. That said, chunk generation ha…

We tend to call those "networks", when they have a bunch of different gametypes and servers interconnected. At a smaller scale of a few hundred players it's pretty easily handled b…

There's a bit of a distinction in the Minecraft world between "mods" and "plugins". Even though to the outside perspective they're the same thing, the terms are used for two differ…

This is where things start to get a little fuzzy. Mineplex had the most concurrent players but they weren't on a single individual bare metal server or single server jar instance. …

Anecdotal counterpoint: I've worked with three sets of people who dated in the workplace, and when they broke up it was fire and brimstone. In all three instances, one of the two q…

I'm guessing the answer is something along the lines of: "Despite being immensely popular, it is a labor of love and generates little (or no?) revenue, so unfortunately, no there i…

Perhaps eventually. At the moment you need to be an "Accredited investor" in order to actually join and invest. They define an "Accredited investor" as meeting at least one of the …

For what it's worth, I can confirm the site does indeed load properly in iOS 6.

This seems a bit misplaced. More like if Torvalds invents a motor and then someone puts it in a car, he might complain if the motor doesn't run the way he'd like. Which isn't entir…

Absolutely - I didn't intend to downplay being a TV writer. In that vein, being a session musician is also "making it" as well. But "it" is subjective - if "it" is being on stage, …

Assuming your write your own material, the rough equivalent for a comic is getting a writing gig. TV shows, for other comedians, etc. You basically write "session" material as a co…

This is a bit of a misunderstanding of how SMTP works. If you run and maintain your own SMTP server and it goes down, you won't be able to send email. Everyone else will still be a…

We use MT at work and have had dozens out outages in the past 6 months. Your mileage may vary.
