I like the idea that even as our chips and disks get faster, enhancements are simultaneously being pushed through on the software level through the likes of io_uring. So even while every newly available hardware cycle in web or mobile apps is immediately burned away through increasingly deep stacks of JavaScript nonsense, at least our databases and server software should be getting strictly faster.
Another way this is noted is that Factories are “pure domain”, but that Repositories can contain links to the infrastructure, e g the database.

Instead, you should align the bar and dig it into that padding right below your fingers first, then wrap your fingers around it, then your hand. It may feel unusual at first, but this way the bar can’t slide in your hands. If it can’t slide, your calluses will be negligible. This gripping technique applies the same to dumbbells, or pull-ups. In any case, be conscious of your grip, since it plays a big role in how much a bar can tear your hands apart.
