It's a permanent primary key into "an" owner database. Unfortunately, there are 40+ databases as there are that many registration companies. I don't even know if there's a unified interface to query all of them simultaneously. Does anyone know how the queries work if a pet be registered in some small or obscure registry that's not supported by every shelter/agency?
In the US, there are something like 40+ pet chip registration companies. The problem of fragmentation is that the portable NFC chip ID number needs to be associated with each of them. This is dubious in the age of private equity and a total market failure. This is something that should be run as a single nonprofit to avoid this useless and unnecessary confusion.
Pecan trees grow best in hot climates. They can tolerate some freezes. In ideal conditions, they produce nuts in 4 years. I'm thinking in colder climates, greenhouse starting in larger containers for longer is basically required. My grandparents had 50' tall pecan trees in zone 8a that dropped about 8-10 lbs. of nuts per tree per year. I'd guess local critters walked off with a fraction small enough to not matter because cleaning up was a semi-nuisance but not as bad as cleaning up olive- and plum-like trees from sidewalks.
Grandparents had 6 paper shell "Pawnee" trees producing 50 lbs. / 22 kg of nuts per year with no special maintenance. USDA hardiness zone 8A and humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cfa). They fell on their own once a year.
Venezuela's oil was part neocolonial Monroe Doctrine and part strangle Cuba so its government would "fall" by choking off its petrochem supply chain from Mexico and Venezuela. Cuba I don't think will fall, even if it's reduced to the Stone Age.
> Cuba I don't think will fall, even if it's reduced to the Stone Age.
As in, the regime will cling to power, damn the cost (which the people, not the oligarchs, will incur)? Or do you mean to imply the Cuban people support the dictatorship?
Similar to plantation owners convincing poor white Southerners that the North was threatening their "way of life", billionaires used media to manufacture consent of a large subset of Americans that [insert scapegoats] are "the problem". Separating church and state and wealth and media are essential to having a functioning democratic flavor of government.
I'm still running ~40 WUH721414ALE6L4 purchased ~2020 for $110 ea. They're $320 ea now, used.
I never thought I would own commodity hardware that would increase in value over time. When this AI bubble pops like dotcom 1.0, the definancialization is going to be painful.
nope. i don't even think ibm were being widely sold at all. ultrastar rings a bell, somewhat, but definitely not ibm hard drives. and i'm talking early 2000s here.
That depends on if something like LTO is possible and a function isn't declared to use one of the plethora of calling conventions. What it means is that new calling conventions will be needed and that this new platform will be able to use pass by register for higher arity functions.
