There were cloud provider outages that lasted a long time as well. They are far from frequent, but it's not like you are immune from it ever happening if you're using aws or gcp. Anyway, I don't think uptime is the main reaso

Can you elaborate? After your comment I started thinking I must not really get IAM.

The elastic cache sla is 99.9%. That's roughly 43 minutes per month. Do you think that's that hard to achieve given the tools we have today?

Or that they could be walk around the city and connecting to different wifis or maybe the person's connection is poor and keeps dropping and reconnecting. I'm sure there are plenty other legitimate use cases where the IP changes f

I think you're being downvoted due to the broad, unsubstantiated, statement that it's impossible to write code with gtk. It's obvious that gtk is a very successful platform. If you want to make such an extraordinary claim, th

Or maybe do not contact him at all. I am not sure he'd appreciate the spam.

If a spammer is able to exploit his system he'll either run out of money and/or his hostname will be blocked. His challenge is to filter spam before those few lines of code.

I think I don't understand what capital intensity means here. If the margin is low, doesn't it mean that it's capital intensive? In the example, $75M is required to get $25M. Isn't that intensive?

Not sure what your point is anymore. Are those examples of countries without social welfare and no minimum wage? That seems to strengthen the point above your comment.

The question is: can your job be automated in 50 years? Maybe it can. But the computer has a long way to go. I don't think we have enough evidence to give any estimate of when (if) that will happen.

I'm not experienced in running live experiments. So, I don't know.

I think you're thinking about web apps. I imagine there's little purpose in printing those.

How to handle the case when you want to replace a function that makes changes to a database? Is this library aimed only towards functions which don't make changes to the system's state?

This is awesome! Have you tried to get in contact with GitHub? It'd be nice if they embraced the project. Maybe adding a new button or tab with a shelter link to the project (they already have a forks view).

You could already select the toppings. Drone technology was not prevalent back then, but no one would think you were high. They were living the dot-com bubble. They would probably invest in that idea if anyone pitched it the right way.

It'd surely have impact in the related fields. However, I'd save the "biggest discovery" title to findings that debunk and completely change our assumptions, rather than more evidence for assumptions we already hold. Per

Interesting. A good book is very efficient at teaching you how to think in that particular language, rather than translating the ideas you have in another language into the new language. How do you learn that with your method? It sounds to

I don't know that much about biology, but my understanding is that if the bacteria does not target our bodies, then it will be just some inert material that will eventually be eliminated by one mechanism or another.

I'm curious, how do you learn languages now?

It's quite unlikely that alien bacteria would be able to target humans.

I don't think that microscopical life in Mars is the biggest discovery in human history. It's more like an interesting trivia. But it doesn't change people's lives any more than the discovery of water on Mars.

You have warranties for those, though. Also, no lives are in risk in dlink's case. It's more comparable with a shirt that falls apart after washing a few times.

That's a different issue. If they're in that situation without any custom scripts and the latency is cropping up, they should consider using a different tool or changing their codebase.

It seems it's not their decision, but US government's decision here.

Not sure if I get what you're saying. How can the consumer have that?

Couldn't you just rollback the change or fix the lua script?

If that doesn't kill it, they could further make any bitcoin transactions illegal.

The software engineers talk about it, but they never do it. Romanticising about moving to a simpler place is very different from actually doing it. A developer is even more relocatable than the doctor. You can still work for a major company
