I find the New York Times a far superior publication both in terms of volume and breadth of authors. The fact that the economist doesn’t post the name of the authors is problematic. Regarding the “war statement” as you put it, all you have

I don't think docker-compose will ever be dead, it's the easiest way to setup a local environment that needs one (db?) or more (db and queue?) components. Deploying locally to k8s (minikube) takes still some time (build the image,

I wonder if an after-market website for selling or giving away your old RPis makes sense. I run a k3s on RPi3, but I have a few RPi2 spares which can be used for small side projects.

A CPU is one of the few dozens of components that you need to get a tangible result out of a CPU. You need hard disks, screens, antennas, batteries and so on and so forth. So you need, copper, lithium and God knows what else. All these mate

Apparently this is something that has totally stuck with the NYTimes. I respect them (for a mainstream media publication), but no one can get over the fact that they lied blatantly at the time.

I find that perplexing about US politics in general. Any proposal on taxes and social benefits, throws off people that at a first glance shouldn't. Maybe large part of the voting base are millionaires.
