I’m sold, just bought a license - we just deployed our first multi cluster application and constantly switching contexts has started to drive me up the wall. Thanks!

Lying is such a fundamental part of human psychology that we lie to ourselves without even knowing we're doing it, and children learn to lie without any instructions. I wouldn't go so far as to say that it's instinctual, but

Furthering religious beliefs is a bonafide charitable act here in NZ, not just the assumption of non profit status. They don’t to feed the hungry, clothe the poor or do anything beyond converting other people to their religion in order to

Given that literally every person alive lies about some things, I'm not sure how much value that observation brings to the discussion.

If your behaviour would somehow be considered unacceptable when the camera isn’t rolling, then yes, I could see that constraining someone’s actions. I don’t see that as a negative though.

It’s not stellarium, but I’ve got a DarkSkys DS1 and bought my parents a FX model and they both have far higher fidelity in the image displayed due to using chrome disks instead of a screen. It looks better than anything I’ve ever seen at h

Highways require significant ongoing maintenance - I wouldn’t be surprised to find that the cost of maintenance over the lifetime of the road exceeds the cost to build it in the first place. Particularly if the country in question relies he

Consequences and punishment are different concepts, I support the death penalty in the case of egregious acts primarily from the perspective of cost and efficiency of removing an unacceptable risk to society. I don’t need to see them tortur

Depends which model you're in - I have the performance version which has stiffer suspension and makes for a less comfortable ride. My friends has a new LR model that is noticeably smoother.

Using the incorrect octane fuel is one way, it’ll seriously shorten the engines lifetime but will probably take months to become obvious.

I do the same, even 3d printed containers to perfectly fit all my fastners in a single drawer. About 3 months ago I managed to pull that drawer out of the toolbox and spill everything over the garage floor. I wish I had a sorter for that da

Without strict parking enforcement, placing the EV chargers in prime parking positions just leads to them being used as general car park spots instead.

For me, it's usually trying to rapidly justify the existence of whatever Rube Goldberg machine I'm having to explain. There's always reasons behind the madness, even if they're not particularly good ones.

In the same way that any forum hosting user-generated content around a specific topic is a subreddit, sure. /b/, for example. And when you think about it, a subreddit is pretty analogous to a Usenet usergroup.

The value of the Lira dropped by 44% in 2021 alone, and is expected to be as low as 70% by the end of 2022. So the use of fiat currency in Lebanon seems kind of on par with BTC in that respect.
