Server Side Rendering SSR Vs Static Site Generation SSG Server Side Rendering SSR and Static Site Generation SSG are terms used to describe how web pages are generated and rendered This article explains the difference between both terminologies and when best to use each one Server Side RenderingSSR refers to when a webpage is generated each time a user requests it In other words a page returned to the user at request time is a server side rendered webpage Nextjs provides the getServerSideProps method to make it easy to do SSR out of the box When is the best time to use SSR SSR is best when rendering complex pages with dynamic contents such as authentication data It is also the best when it comes to SEO Static Site Generation SSG SSG is a method used to generate webpages at build time The pages are then re used each time a user requests them The getStaticProps method is used for SSG in Nextjs When is the best time to use SSG The best time to use SSG is when a webpage has less dynamic data For example a blog post page SSG provides better load time since the pages are already generated SummaryThe image below outlines the difference between SSR and SSG ConclusionThe article aimed to clarify the difference between SSR and SSG It defined each concept and provided the best cases for all of them It also introduced you to the Nextjs methods for handling SSR and SSG I encourage you to look more into the documentation and explore code samples and other use cases |

x more value for money than Datadog SigNozDemocratize observability for engineering teams of all sizes That s the vision that drives us every day SigNoz is open source provides three signals logs metrics and traces under a single pane and is OpenTelemetry native And it also costs lesser than other popular observability tools We did a cost analysis of SigNoz and compared it with other vendors like DataDog New Relic and Grafana SigNoz can provide up to x more value for money than vendors like Datadog and let your engineering team do so much more Here are some key takeaways from our cost analysis SigNoz can provide up to x more value for money than vendors like Datadog The cost savings can enable engineering teams to send more data while spending lesser User based SaaS pricing limits the ability of engineering teams to collaborate seamlessly SigNoz does not charge for user seats Vendors like New Relic can charge up to of its total bill amount just for adding users Custom metrics are important for having a deeper understanding of your application If you use Datadog your custom metrics bill can be up to of your total billing SigNoz does not charge separately for custom metrics and with per million samples it is the most cost efficient tool for metrics monitoring Below is the snapshot of our full stack observability cost comparison You can have a look at our complete cost comparison analysis SigNoz provides the best in class value for money as compared to other observability toolsYou can check out paid plans of SigNoz here Issues with Datadog pricingDatadog has a very complex SKU based pricing structure The complex billing structure makes it hard to predict how much you will be charged at the end of the month Recently it was revealed that they charged a cryptocurrency company a bill of million USD A Hacker News thread discussing the report went viral and there was an outpour of user stories around Datadog s unpredictable billing practices A lot of users also pointed out how the sales team of Datadog relentlessly pursue engineers for signing up for their services Hackernews thread discussing issues with Datadog pricingDatadog s pricing for custom metrics is also insane We deep dive into it later in the blog Cost comparison of SigNoz with Datadog New Relic and GrafanaDepending on the size of the engineering team we have done cost benchmarking of three hypothetical scenarios Small engineering team engineersMidsize engineering team engineersLarge engineering team engineersDatadog has a very complex SKU based pricing structure New Relic charges based on data ingest and user seats Grafana charges based on the amount of telemetry data sent and user seats SigNoz charges only on the amount of telemetry data sent Small

your application It can help you track key application KPIs For a robust observability setup your engineering and DevOps teams need the flexibility and freedom to create and send as many custom metrics as needed But vendors like Datadog charge per custom metric which limits a team s ability to send and analyze custom metrics for monitoring Datadog charges per custom metricAt scale it can constitute up to of your total billing Custom metrics billing can constitute a significant portion of your total bill with DatadogSigNoz does not treat custom metrics any differently The charges remain per million samples no matter what type of metrics you send Hence you can create and send custom metrics with peace of mind while using SigNoz No user based pricing collaborate seamlessly with SigNozUser based pricing is outdated An observability tool is used for debugging performance issues and you never know which engineer might need it At SigNoz we don t charge based on user seats New Relic s user pricing can go up to user At scale the cost of adding users can go up to of the total bill User seat billing can constitute a significant portion of your total bill with New Relic Why choose SigNoz We believe in transparent and flexible pricing As we meet with developers engineering leaders and executives around the world we realized engineering teams want two things Best value for

Python prevent import errorsI ve already asserted in this series that you should catch errors in your Python scripts Not only that it improves user experience but it may save you some precious time if you provide support What are imports Imports can simply consist of calling a third party package in your script to speed up development or avoid reinventing the wheel It s usually done this way in Python import my awesome packageBut you can also alias it import my awesome package as another nameWhen you start sharing your code you need to tell people how to install all dependencies to prevent bad import errors Indeed if my awesome package is a third party package that is not pre installed with Python users will get a fatal error Fortunately Python has its own package manager Pip that comes with Python so Python devs usually put a file called requirements txt at the root of their projects to indicate third party modules to install Then users only have to use the following command pip install r requirements txt Devs are lazy so are usersWe all know that we must read the Fabulous documentation RTFM but in practice it s often skipped Whether it s good or bad mostly bad is not our problem here People just do that However you can add some extra check import systry import my awesome packageexcept ModuleNotFoundError print Please run pip install r requirements txt to use this script sys exit While it s not an official recommendation from the documentation I like to include such checking Wrap upCatching import errors can be beneficial even if it adds a few lines in your script |

Roland SH-4D review: An overdue return to great synths for the masses |
https://www.engadget.com/roland-sh-4d-review-an-overdue-return-to-great-synths-for-the-masses-143305194.html?src=rss

Roland SH D review An overdue return to great synths for the massesRoland s synth lineup seems a little odd at times It doesn t really offer much in the midrange Its only two pure synthesizers in the to space are the year old Gaia SH and the eight year old and objectively hideous JD Xi The company has mostly been focused on its miniaturized classics in the Boutique range and building out its groovebox lineup for the last few years The company s SH d doesn t perfectly fill this gap in the lineup but it s a big step in the right direction It s a synth focused desktop groovebox with lots of hands on controls a rich sound engine and a more than reasonable price of The question is In an increasingly crowded field of experimental digital synths and well established analogs has Roland done enough with the d to carve out a niche for itself Photo by Terrence O Brien EngadgetThe heart of the SH d is built around Roland s Zen Core engine but it s not actually Zen Core compatible Instead the company took the building blocks and arranged them into simplified oscillators This is great news because at least in hardware form Zen Core has primarily shown up either as overly complicated and menu divey or as a glorified preset browser Here there are different oscillators that range from emulations of classic Roland machines like the Juno and SH to metallic FM tones PCM samples and different wavetables And there are enough hands on controls that you can actually do some serious sound design without having to dig seven layers deep in an incomprehensible menu system This is the closest Roland has come to knob per function in a long time and the company deserves credit for that Thankfully Roland also blessed the SH d with the larger higher res screen we ve seen on machines like the Jupiter XM and MC rather than the painful two line displays on the TR series and the VerseLab so navigating the menu is less aggravating In general the menu system also feels more streamlined than on a lot of other Roland devices I d stop just short of saying it s intuitive but it also didn t send me into a rage spiral There s only a handful of things that felt like they required an unnecessary amount of menu diving the effects the matrix and the mixer most notably There s obviously a limit to how many buttons and knobs Roland could fit on the face of the already pretty crowded SH d but I ve seen mod matrix patching handled more elegantly by both Arturia and ASM The four faders can be used in a mixer mode which is great but you have to switch to pattern mode then hit the sound button to access it when it should really be a single button press away And the effects section only exposes two parameters directly everything else requires going into a menu Photo by Terrence O Brien EngadgetThe effects in general are pretty great at least The delay and the chorus are excellent The reverbs are a bit lackluster but there s a whole suite of other effects in total ranging from an absolutely incredible bit crusher to lo fi vinyl warbles to the DJ looper from the SP And the fattener is so good I kind of wish it had its own dedicated slot like the reverb delay and chorus do Brief aside Why is there so much noise in the Juno chorus emulation Roland It s basically unusable until you go into the menu and turn it down or off at which point it s excellent What s truly wild is that it s set to by default and goes all the way up to At full tilt it s just a white noise machine Great for the synth nerd who has trouble sleeping I guess That one gripe aside the SH d sounds incredible Truly I am not always the biggest fan of the Roland sound I think its modern synths have a tendency to be a tad cold and clinical But the d mostly avoids this unless that s the stated goal such as in the Wavetable or PCM oscillator The presets do an excellent job of showing off the unique characteristics of each model and even take some of them in places you might not immediately think of Sure the SH is great at bass and leads we all know that But did you know it can also shine while playing mellow pads Well thanks to modern technology blessing us with a polyphonic emulation of one it can Photo by Terrence O Brien EngadgetRoland includes nice touches here like graphically representing the layout of the Juno and SH or showing a ring modulator diagram on the screen In general the oscillators themselves feel carefully polished The two knobs directly below the screen the four faders and the four buttons below those have immediate and obvious uses usually that are reflected in some way on the display The middle two buttons under the faders are how you turn on and off the saw and square wave in the Juno model for instance And in the Cross FM engine you can draw an envelope using the faders Oh and speaking of drawing there is a drawing oscillator Here you can create a completely custom waveform by using the four faders by recording as you move a knob in real time or step by step with incredible granularity It is loads of fun and a quick way to get something that is completely your own Another twist of the knob and you can square off the edges to get something that sounds like it s straight from an Atari Then feed that through a bit crusher and chef s kiss From here the signal goes through a simple high pass filter and a resonant multimode filter The multimode filter is decent enough It doesn t self oscillate but it s still pleasantly aggressive I do wish the filter drive a bit stronger though It adds a little extra oomph but doesn t reach the giddy destructive highs of what Roland has in the SP Photo by Terrence O Brien EngadgetAll of this leads us to the sequencer which is what makes the SH d more of a groovebox than a true synthesizer There are four polyphonic synth tracks and one rhythm track that you can use to create loops up to steps long The sequencer is reasonably feature packed and mostly easy to use Each part can have its own length playback mode forward reverse forward and reverse inverted or random shuffle rate and more There s also probability and substep options though you do have to do a little menu diving to get there And while the keyboard on the SH d is not velocity sensitive you can connect an external controller or dial in velocity manually on a per step basis The only major limitation is the lack of pattern chaining or a song mode There s a handful of performance friendly features as well like a master effect channel for buildups and breakdowns Plus you can mute parts and even individual drum sounds on the dedicated rhythm track One thing missing is the Step Loop function found on even its cheaper instruments like the recent Aira Compact S I ve got to say the rhythm section is great too I was initially kind of skeptical of it I really wanted Roland to just focus on making an approachable and affordable synthesizer rather than continue its “everything and the kitchen sink approach But it really is excellent and not an afterthought at all There are instruments in each kit which can combine two different waveforms with their own pitch envelopes and EQ settings Roland probably could have gotten away with just tossing some and samples in here and calling it a day But the rhythm section has its own rich and powerful sound design tools Photo by Terrence O Brien EngadgetUnfortunately Roland didn t stop at a five track sequencer with a surprisingly rich drum machine There are a few features here that are a bit of a head scratcher The biggest one being D Motion where you can assign parameters to an X and Y axis then tilt the instrument to change them It s gimmicky and pretty unnatural on something that s over inches wide and weighs just shy of four pounds The visual arpeggiator is in a similar boat It has a handful of modes that allow you to control playback by bouncing notes playing pong or drawing in a sequence Etch a Sketch style I wanted to like them But the reality was they were not particularly useful not even for idea generation and I grew bored with them after a few minutes I d have rather Roland used that D Motion button on the front for something more immediately useful like quick access to a mixer mode or Step Loop for creating quick fills Photo by Terrence O Brien EngadgetOn the whole though I think Roland has a winner on its hands I d love to see a version in the future with a proper keyboard perhaps one with aftertouch And I still have my struggles with the Roland workflow But this is my favorite instrument from the company outside of the SP MKII which is an entirely different beast The SH d has plenty of hands on controls a rich palette of synth engines and it sounds great Add to that a solid build the ability to be powered by a handful of AAs and a much cleaner interface than many other Roland instruments The top notch drum machine and multi track polyphonic sequencer are just icing on the cake This is easily my favorite Roland synth in a long time And the fact that it only costs only makes it that much more appealing This article originally appeared on Engadget at |

'Star Wars Jedi: Survivor' and the year of disappointing PC ports |
https://www.engadget.com/star-wars-jedi-survivor-and-the-year-of-disappointing-pc-ports-141551209.html?src=rss

x Star Wars Jedi Survivor x and the year of disappointing PC portsIf you ve been anywhere near a gaming forum recently you ve probably seen something about the state of Star Wars Jedi Survivor on PC Even in a year that has seen some abysmal PC releases I m looking at you The Last of Us Part ーthe latest from Respawn Entertainment stands out Performance is the big issue everyone is talking about and it s easy to see why If you want to watch a deep dive into the game s technical woes check out some of the recent videos Digital Foundry and Daniel Owen have uploaded to their YouTube channels However the short version is Jedi Survivor has all the issues that have plagued many a recent poor PC port Each time you launch the game it puts you through a shader pre compilation process that frustratingly doesn t prevent stuttering Jedi Survivor also suffers from traversal hitching meaning your frame rate will drop when you enter a new location Annoyingly these were issues that were present and never addressed in Jedi Fallen Order And unfortunately there s no amount of hardware that can fix those problems in Jedi Survivor I m playing the game on a PC with an AMD Ryzen x and NVIDIA RTX My system is not bleeding edge but it s also not a toaster The thing is there s no combination of settings that leads to Jedi Survivor producing a consistent frame rate due to how the game makes use of your system s processor and available VRAM Even players with RTX GPUs reported poor framerates at launch Adding to the performance issues is Jedi Survivor s status nbsp as an AMD sponsored title The game supports AMD s FSR upscaling technology but not DLSS and XESS While it s true you can use FSR with NVIDIA and Intel GPUs Jedi Survivor s implementation nbsp leaves a lot to be desired Even set to the “Quality setting the tech introduces distracting artifacts that take away from the game s otherwise compelling presentation FSR also does little to nothing to improve your framerate since the game is so CPU limited And then you have Jedi Survivor s settings menu In short nbsp the game features one of the least helpful settings menus I ve seen in recent memory It s not properly coded for mouse navigation none of the graphical options come with an explanation of what they do and the game doesn t even offer a hint of what kind of performance impact you can expect from tweaking specific settings But the worst offender is Jedi Survivor s ray tracing options or should I say option singular Unlike nearly every other modern PC release Jedi Survivor bundles all of its RT features into a single toggle meaning you can t use less expensive ones like ray traced ambient occlusion on their own What makes all these issues so frustrating is that things don t have to be this way In it s not a secret what makes a great PC port and there are plenty of examples studios can look to for inspiration For instance having played God of War on PlayStation Pro PS and PC I think there s an easy argument to be made that the PC version is the definitive way to play that game In the case of Respawn the studio doesn t even need to look that far for an example of how to build a great PC port In it released Titanfall to this day one of the best games you can play on PC A note from the Jedi Team on the PC version of Star Wars Jedi Survivor pic twitter com CbpVICrーEA Star Wars EAStarWars April EA had been somewhat dismissive of player complaints suggesting that only a “percentage of PC players are experiencing performance issues and that some of those issues are due to people using high end CPUs with Windows In any case EA said Respawn was doing its best to fix the game Sure enough on the Monday after Jedi Survivor s Friday release Respawn released a patch that promised performance improvements I found the update increased my average frame rates but did nothing to address the game s stuttering The latest patch released partway through last week was supposed to address that issue but I find the game will still slow down when I enter new areas Respawn has promised additional updates are on the way that will supposedly further improve performance So how did we get here and who if anyone is to blame for the state of PC ports in Those are questions I ve been thinking about a lot over the past few days Unfortunately there are no easy answers From a technical standpoint there s a reason PC ports were more competent during the eighth generation of consoles than at almost any other time in the past it was easy Or at least easier The PlayStation and Xbox One saw the switch to x processors that were effectively less powerful versions of what PC gamers had in their towers It was also one of the longest generations in recent memory It s only in the last year or so that we ve seen publishers like EA abandon cross gen releases in favor of current gen exclusives On PC that stability meant you could get away with using your components for longer I bought an Intel Core i K in and only upgraded in after Red Dead Redemption was too much for that processor s four thread architecture With the transition to PS and Xbox Series X more care and attention needs to be given to PC ports Current consoles are laser focused on gaming and don t need to run Windows in the background Then there s the fact that for the first time in a long while the average gaming PC isn t as powerful as a current gen console If you don t believe me look at Steam s most recent hardware survey The most popular GPU is the nearly four year old GTX Moreover six and four core processors make up the majority of CPUs in use by Steam players with eight core ones represented in less than percent of all systems Put all this together and it becomes obvious that lazy ports just won t cut it anymore As more current gen games are released and those titles take advantage of everything the PS and Xbox Series X have to offer I think we re going to see more shoddy PC ports Cal s newest journey in a galaxy far far away has begun and we re excited for you to experience it Our first patch will arrive on launch day across all platforms In the weeks ahead we ll deploy patches that will Fix bugs Improve performance Add more accessibility…pic twitter com pUtyoGopPーEA Star Wars EAStarWars April But a technological shift is only one part of it Publishers are not blameless in this Two of the worst PC ports released this year Jedi Survivor and The Last of Us Part were pushed back to give their developers more time for polish In the case of Jedi Survivor Respawn specifically called out the game s performance as one of the reasons for the delay EA decided against further delaying the game knowing full well the state of the product it was about to release In fact EA even warned fans the game was coming in hot tweeting two days before Jedi Survivor s release that a day one patch was the first of many updates it had planned The publisher said future patches would fix bugs improve performance and add more accessibility features Unfortunately it is now business as usual for publishers to release an unfinished game and promise to fix it later And for the most part they re rewarded for doing so because there s nothing the gaming community loves more than a good redemption story Think of a game like No Man s Sky or better yet EA s own Star Wars Battlefront II and Battlefield All three were poorly received at release but after months and years of hard work from the studios that created them they re now highly regarded I wish I could say things will get better soon but in the short term I don t think we ll see many improvements It s not impossible for a studio to release a technically competent PC port but it takes time resources and a publisher willing to make a game s PC fanbase a priority A fundamental change in how game publishers do business is needed and that will take time This article originally appeared on Engadget at |
