Amusing. It's like a cavemen saying "Yep, we are done. We made fire ourselves, what else could there possibly be?" I mean we did a whole 200 years of scientific research. Of course, there is little else to discover.…
Confirmation bias to the fourth power. A person just told you that an average truck of which you see plenty on the roads, does a couple thousand times the damage of a car and your response is: "Let's get all the cars of…
Probably, but that's still about 10 million people with private insurance, which is 1/3 of Canada's population. The point is, private insurance doesn't have to be a nightmare. That is not the only factor. Actually I…
> Privatizing seems to make for too much economic specialization That alone isn't sufficient. Germany is built on private insurance (on top of something similar to Canada's government insurance) and it works just…
Any company that wants to survive long-term doesn't do that. So go work for those instead. Companies who treat code this way aren't software companies, and they ain't gonna stick around for the long-run. They just use…
> 75 million dollar price tag is also huge. Is it? Over the two years they saved, this is about the salary for 100 engineers. Can you replace and maintain all the cloud aspects that AWS provides you with (I mean the…

Does it? What if the US had Iran's military and Iran had US' military? The wars conducted by US are questionable at best and a poor example of how developed nations should behave. However, looking at the worst sides of…
Bias finds its way into every corner. And no, it's not safe unless you do some extensive analysis of the certificate in question. Is this actually a valid/genuine certificate, besides the timestamp? A normal user will…
You don't need to know much about security to write safe programs. Most of the work is done by others. You need to know how to avoid common pitfalls (i.e. yeah, if your service uses 3rd party code to parse customer…
That doesn't make any sense whatsoever. You do not hire someone because he knows about a certain technology. You hire people because they will provide long term value to your company and are able to adapt a rapidly…
Fixing an issue around being unable to pay with a credit card is likely anything but a 30 min issue, unless there is some triviality happening, like a config issue. But even then you need to add tests for this. A day or…
Statically typed languages only eliminate SOME things you'd otherwise have to test. In the end, you can eliminate almost anything besides logical errors, however, those are unfortunately a pretty big portion of bugs :D.…

I am pretty sure they did, unless he got hired at some VP/Distinguished Engineer level. And to be clear: If you are unable to solve these common algorithmic questions that companies like Microsoft ask, then that's not…
Yeah, they only put the fan in MBP to annoy people, of course. It has zero use. Go order the Macbook Air and have fun. Maybe you can fry your breakfast eggs on it too.
Hah, good to know. However, unless you are talking to people from the same domain, it's usually a better approach to spell out things instead of relying on terminology. Concepts and ideas translate much better across…
Oh I am sure judging by how excellent MacBook Pros cool things, having passive cooling will make no difference at all. I mean, during summer I put my MacBook on a large ice block that I freeze over night, this way I can…
Not just that. At 5nm there will also be yield problems. I.e they will put the best yield into high end and the worst yield into low end.
The way the house and senate looks, this is going to be one long 4 years of gridlock. That's the only meaningful thing republicans can do now. Block everything. Make Democrats look as bad as humanly possible, then…
For X-Rays? This technology is sure decades away from commercialization, but it could be the way forward in a time when conventional silicon has reached its physical limits. I wonder why people always think just one…
There are probably alternative market segments for your approach. The AWS CLI is generated from the API, not the GUI. That is not CLI first either, but it follows the GIT approach of the CLI being effectively an API.…
And you can spend that time thinking about how not to use a message broker... And maybe just use lower level MANAGED services, like SQS or SNS.
Yeah if you somehow manage to freeze all other scientific progress, you would be right. Otherwise, our children will likely never know what cancer even is, aside from history books. Give it another 10 years or so and we…
