Whales depend on new money entering to keep the price from plummeting. I used to think of crypto’s as a decentralized ponzi where all the participants are incentivized to bring in as many new participants as possible. They’ve cut this part

I don’t think so. Most programming is CRUD which is by its very nature impure. Trying to make it pure just adds a lot of overhead and baggage. I do think the stateless paradigm that serverless cloud has created is a step in the right direct

It’s like Amazon’s Fire Phone in 2012/13 on steroids. So much smoke, so much hiring, so much supply chain rumor. It’s definitely real and something impossible to hide.

Netflix is funding TV and movies through massive amounts of debt; not subscription revenues. It’s unclear if Netflix will ever make that money back since they can’t stop making content.

You would be correct. On page 18, 2019 revenue was 193M and 2020 was 219M, growth of only 13%.

So much of this story doesn’t make sense to me. What is a “dashboard team”? Is that data engineers and report developers or is it a dev-ops reporting team? When I think the former, I think ETLs, data warehouses, tableau/powerBI and whe

Most of these entities probably don’t have that much liquid cash. Are they going to need to sell a bunch of crypto to pay the fine? $100M is a huge amount in these shallow markets.
