Snapshots have an intention behind them as a chunk that the programmer thought of. It has infinite flexibility depending on the programmer/team. IMO they are a necessary feature, b…

It's interesting that we are seeing a time when subscriptions are not preferred and usage-based billing is. Pay-as-you go isn't a common thing in SaaS. For example, except for AWS …

Any recommendations for a trustworthy registrar?

Interesting. All 3 seems like they’re obviously going to impact quality. e.g, reducing the effort from high to medium. So then, there must have been an explicit internal guidance/p…
