CRUD has a different origin, but it became synonymous with a certain style of... uninspired web development

I doubt that LLM will keep getting better, too. Or at least, not in an economically sustainable way

the collaboration to be able to triangulate is composed of LIGO, Virgo and now KAGRA. KAGRA is not yet fully ready for longer observation runs, so for now it's basically LIGO and Virgo - and if you take offline one of three, triangulat

The company I worked for offered a platform for investments in (fully allocated) gold. They launched a spin-off[1] for 24k jewels, priced at spot gold price*jewel weight, plus a fixed and known margin in percentage. I worked on the e-commer
