IMO the first argument is invalid, however, the second one is a completely valid argument.

Does anyone find it suspicious they need another funding round after just completing the largest raise in history? It seems like the rumors are correct and they are burning through money.

Wishing you all the best! Thank you for being ambitious enough to try this out. I'm going to test this out and write about it on my blog.

Love this, do you have an benchmarks around potential performance improvements over JVM clojure?

Yes but lose a ton of functionality docker isn't a replacement for helm.

While I love ECS you're not giving k8s enough credit. Nearly every COTS (common off the self) app has a helm chart, hardly any provide direct ECS support. If I want a simple kafka cluster or zookeeper cluster there's a supported

Not even close to ChatGPT :/ Bard essentially ignores a good chunk of the prompt which is the most important (generating the anki formatted card that you can directly copy and paste). "create an anki deck of the top 5 brazilian po

I'm very confused by this, who is forcing you to work in NYC? If NJ is so great why not get a job there?

> Yes, people who can't afford spending $15. Anyone else will continue as they do, as private transport is safer, quicker and more convenient - plus there will be better traffic, as the poor will be taken off the road. This isn&#x27

The vast majority of workers commute on public transportation. NYC is extremely accessible via public transportation. Catering the city to cars isn't scalable.

When those people start paying NYC income tax (which tops at around 4% of income) then I think we should cater more to them BUT they don't. The people who actually in the city and actually have to pay that tax should have their city c

This simply isn't true, where is there free parking in Lower Manhattan, on a day other than Sunday? And also you're telling me the poor people are small business owners in NYC? Out of all of parking in Lower Manhattan maybe 5% is

"Congestion as in there is too many poor entering the Manhattan, so they set the fee so only those who can afford $15 can enter." You said that will adversely affect the poor but that's not true, what poor person is spending

Why should we cater our city to people who don't live here?

by avbanks 3y ago
This will actually make living here more attractive. Most people who actually live in the city do not drive, we take public transportation. I don't want to sound condescending but we'd prefer our city to be catered to people who

I'm sorry but this isn't indicative of the reality of driving in NYC. If you drive into NYC, you will have to park. When you park you'll need to pay for a lot or a garage. Daily parking in NYC can cost $50-100, monthly subsc

How can the working class afford to park in NYC? A monthly subscription to a parking lot/garage is $400 + monthly.

"Almost every database has a JVM client, typically written in Java, and Clojure has decent Java interop." Curious to know in what ways could Java interop be better in Clojure?

I would much rather deal with Elisp than JS. IMO JS is a terrible choice for this.

Yes you're correct, I should have noted that. All light sources can affect melatonin production negatively. Its also vital to get as much light as possible during the day, especially light from the sun or overcast clouds.

It's a hormone produced by the body for sleep, it definitely works in inducing drowsiness. Now should you take it regularly is a different question.

by avbanks 3y ago
I completely agree, I think sleep hygiene gets overlooked but that could be main culprit. Andrew Hubermin talks about this on his podcast but basically the blue light/high intensity light from phones, computers, and tv's blocks me

We're pointing out that this will help in addition to other things. This won't be the sole solution, however, it will help.

Are you sure it's decriminalized for selling? Selling and consuming are not the same thing.

Yes, and also this facility should help as well.
