You wish. Just like the early socialists of 19th century wished. Many of his suggestions are outright harmful, like pulling water out of air. Same thinking got us in this mess in the first place, hey just pull out oil of the ground and burn

Oversleep leads to lazyness and sadness, or introversion and contemplatency. Or, it was just those teenage years, but when I was 16 and 18, I used to sleep 14h per day. This contemplating mood lasted throughout the day, only to disappear an

Well that sounds like a problem of "I run my own cloud". And not a problem of Kubernetes. You dont remember how you set it up, oh well. If you use a managed kubernetes (not in aws since they suck, eks is not really managed). Like

Never use Ansible, Puppet or Chef. Those are old dead tools. Those are tools for configuration management. If you instead use packer, docker, you can build your vm/image at build time, and use Terraform to setup vm with that image. Use

What do you consider a secret? What other system do you recommend which has the feature you want? I cant see how one would inject data into a process without ptracing/gdb-attaching to it, messing with its internal memory, or just use e

Yes of course, even if my IDE doesnt autocomplete anyway. Code is read much more often than it is written. Yes, I do want to read out what I type and possible speak it to collegues without sounding like I have a fn seizure.

I still cannot forgive Rust for not learning anything from Ada. "Code is read more often than it is written". Reading Ada is so unambigous, and clear. If you mean if then, you have the keyword then, when you want to say procedure

Why do you think "safety deposit box" is a "safe deposit box", just because of the name and branding? Give this a try, go open and put some rock in your safe deposit box, then call the bank and tell them you placed a C4

I agree with you. We cant ask to return to middle ages. Emissions from transportation is different, since the true costs of air and fossil-burning-car travel compared to train travel is not reflected on the price.

I doubt fish, pigs or goats produce any methane in any significant amount. Meat can be produced without polluting, it doesnt have to be cows. The cost still has to be payed though, even if it is so low. Even so, just because some pollution

We must do both. We can achieve zero emissions. Its really simple to tax-more-and-more-if-you-pollute in whatever form be it air or pesticides. And use the taxation money to invest in scrubbing, cleaning and more efficient ways of travel su

All good points. Why can Japan and China do it? Are their politicians better than Euro-crats? Reading a bit more on this, seems EU had proposed already 1996 a common European signaling system as you say to integrate the various railroad com
