I’m not sure that it would even be larger now than before. Subsonic flight has become much more efficient, cheaper and when paying for higher class, more comfortable. This is one of the reasons often mentioned for the economic demise of the

reading that, I would imagine this also relates to people in privileged situations thinking that they have "earned" that privilege for a reason. And thus that people in underprivileged situations have earned that too. Yikes. I can

I think it is fine if you keep an easy to install free version. And if you earn a significant amount, you could distribute some of that back to certain contributors if you wanted.

It is addictive, but it has an "ending". I played for 98 hours (steam stats) and reached the ending, and with that I reached the end of my mild addiction. I am much more afraid of Factorio which seems a lot more open ended, and th

I almost always tear up when I hear this song. I was 13 when it came out. It brings out a mix of nostalgia and “wisdom of life”, if that’s a thing. Every decade the lyrics have new meaning. I believe our generation genuinely wears more suns

It’s worse because you carry more weight, but it’s also better because you can charge to 100% without risking much degradation. And you also have less/no degradation. Not sure if that balances out.

If all companies with interesting jobs only offer 10 days vacation, then there's no real other alternative. You could try to negotiate. I prefer to give people plenty of holidays. Enjoy life, recharge. I often come up with some of my b

In the grand scheme of global economics, yes, nationalism has a very big impact, and it typically lasts longer than pandemic lockdowns or gas sanctions.

As mentioned by another comment: you can use views for that.

That feels like a weak argument. OP is talking geopolitics, not domestic shenanigans. I think internationals news happily picks up Chinese international interventions.

Besides what other commenters mentioned, it is also the longest running revenue source for Apple.

This is a great answer. It’s easy to assume someone else’s job is simple when you don’t understand it. I bet we all know a few “Business” people that assume sysadmin is just turning on machines, and programming is really simple and easy. Bu

With “is absurd”, do you mean that the statement isn’t true, or that you think that pilot’s should not be earning more than software engineers?

It’s absurd in most countries I’m sure. The OP said > airline pilots are paid more than programmers here (emphasis mine) I just gave one geographical example where I believe that to be true. I don’t think it is true everywhere, nor do

I didn’t find a mention id this Fresh framework could also run on Node. In other words: is it relying on anything deno-specific?

Perhaps they also own a lot of bitcoin/crypto and the goal of this investment is to prevent the price from dropping (due to firms going down).

If you trust a person (or source) and they have a private key that they can properly secure, they could always sign their material with that key. That would prove that the source provided that material. A blockchain could be a way to store
