Why would you assume it's lip-service? Being vendor-locked into ECS means you must pay whatever ECS wants... using k8s means you can feasibly pick up and move if you are forced. Even if it doesn't save money today it might sav

So one side packs, say 3 new justices onto the court to get their desired outcomes... until they lose an election. Then that next person packs 800 new justices so they can get their outcomes. Do you see the problem? That's the short si

So, so, so many people get caught up in information bubbles and fall victim to thinking everyone agrees with their viewpoint. This leads to the disillusionment with congress and the belief of it being "ineffective" because from

I don't believe you got the memo, did you? Musk is evil and we were all told to hate him. Nothing he is associated with is ok anymore.

It's $1200 a year for the first year or so, then it's more and more over a 40 year career. I don't understand why this is a difficult concept to grasp - your income increases as you develop your career... and so does your ret

Explain the disconnect please. When you are young, saving anything, even $50-100 monthly ends up being significant for retirement. If you can get employer matching, it's even better. Then, over a 40+ year career, you are wanting me to

If you are offended by this remark then you are exactly the person it was aimed for. We need better civics lessons in schools. The evidence is prevalent right here in this thread. Too few people actually understand government - and that&#x2

Can we lay down the propaganda for a minute and actually debate using our brains? This ridiculous propaganda is super exhausting and very unstimulating.

What do these metrics measure? Productiveness - no. Consensus? Yes. Which means... there is a lack of consensus currently. That's how it is supposed to work.
