Let's hope silicon valley doesn't get their hands on them. We need more people fixing real problems for the third world instead of solving uninteresting first world problems.

You can just use application insights for this. It can also show you the results of the ping over time in a scatter chart.

Since you work at a ML consultancy company, may I ask you a question? How do you sell this service to customers? How do they find you (what search terms do they use, how do they reach you), how do you find them? My experience is that potent

This is so not true. Induction (or at least the one I have) is ridiculously fast and goes way hotter than any gas stove I've ever seen in a house. It goes so high it can make the bottom of my pan orange glowing if I turn up the heat en

Oh yea, absolutely. I've become weary of trying new Microsoft stuff. One example I had recently is with their Bot framework. They came out with a shiny new template earlier this year, they called it the Enterprise Bot Template. Since w

Aside from that, it's a very dangerous mindset to say "look no further". We should always be looking further, trying to disprove our theories. They may be based on falsehoods.

No, we don't need more humans. We need a transition to social and economic systems that are not dependent on everlasting unsustainable growth.

What I don't get about hackernews is why regularly someone just dumps a link to a random wikipedia article with no context of why it's here and why it should be interesting. Can we just change this and add some context?

Have you considered that: 1) Maybe not everyone belongs to the 1% that can pass the interviews? 2) Maybe not everyone lives in a place that has a Google office where development is happening? Sorry but you sound terribly arrogant here, pret

That does not answer his question, whether Office365 is better for privacy or not.

It's good to mention that this is satire. Especially for our non-german speakers.

Yea, not really. There is a difference between preventing people from spreading facts and preventing people from spreading blatant lies.

What I don't understand is why this is so controversial. I clicked on a link in the article, leading to this article: https://techcrunch.com/2019/05/06/new-study-shows-human-deve... . The comment on it is

Not all airplanes can dump their fuel. Only the bigger ones can. I once had to fly circles around an airport for 5 hours to burn up the fuel, because the airplane couldn't dump it.

I just finally switched one of our projects from a very crappy framework called Metro UI to Bootstrap. The reasons were that the other framework was very poorly coded, supported almost nothing out of the box and also looked pretty bad in a

I don't want to. Being at the top requires a significant time investment. Instead of specializing I rather generalize. Also, I highly value work-life balance.
