   In 2000 would you have said "The US could setup a prison just outside its borders so it could ignore the bill of rights, but it wouldn't - because that would be insane!?" The US has been doing some pretty insane things... Yes they haven't N

   Your callousness and (what seems to be a) lack of empathy to those less fortunate is quite confronting to read.

    Brute forcing "ALL" the credit card numbers is not hard... Limitiing the search space doesn't make it easier... it just saves a little bit of electricity.

    ... None of that stuff requires github. How about also have the code on bitbucket (if you want to use flashy web services). Chances of them going down at the same time seems remote.

    I'm sorry with the poor assumption... But you started this thread with "Github downtime is the reason we can't use git internally" <--- This illustrates either you don't understand git very well. OR you don't understand logic very well.

    > We'd lose our deployment, integration tests, continuous integration, ability to pull other team changes from the master and code review platform. That's a big chunk of our deb infrastructure. You'd lose all that from using git? Why?

    You know you can run git internally as well? Using github as an excuse to stay with svn seems rather ill informed. You wouldn't lose hours if github is down. You might lose your ability to deploy (if you are deploying from github) but you

    I'm curious why you are conflating individual freedom with economic growth? China (and in the inverse, india) are the best examples of why you are wrong. i.e Why is China's growth so far outstripping India's given India has more freedom?

    https://siftscience.com/docs/rest-api There is no requirement in their api to supply CC details... so no requirement to be PCI. So it would be weird if they did mention PCI... The first 6 and the last 4 is not enough to make a valid CC...

    Are $1-$2/day wages common in the US? That $150/month cost is a cost incurred in the US. It would be a different cost to source the ingredients in every country.

    I think you are building a narrative to suit your own argument. Industry (telstra, optus, iinet, etc) NEVER planned a nationwide network of fiber (even before NBN was announced) let alone a Fiber-to-the-Home solution. Australia has 20 mill
