I have no idea if this happens or not, but I imagine it is trivial to monitor bluetooth and wifi beacon probes to identify all people who walk into a physical space. Similarly, I have no idea if it is possible but I imagine it is trivial to

A blockchain in this context is much worse than a 3rd party because there's nobody to sign a contract, arrest, subpoena, or bring a lawsuit against. "It's math, bro" isn't actually comforting if the contents of the

The two rivals write a contract? The contract involves a 3rd party that's mutually agreed upon by the rivals? If the two rivals can't abide by a contract, a blockchain wouldn't resolve the scenario either. Imagine "bug

What kinds of hard problems? Probably the vast majority of problems where Oracle is the right solution are problems where Oracle is already in use. That's actually a large market. It's unlikely that new, greenfield solutions hav

I'm not sure what is imaginary here. You believe you've done a thing in contravention of your government's laws. Perhaps you've done it and will not be caught. Perhaps you've done it and they haven't gotten a

That's an interesting theory. In practice, maintaining anonymous ownership of your assets on BTC is excruciatingly hard, because it's a public record. The organizations that monopolize violence ("governments", typically)

The far end of this continuum is CA Technologies where they buy products with an entrenched customer base and squeeze them for money while putting the product on "sustaining engineering" (aka hospice care). On the continuum of &qu

Yeah, reading that table, the "hack" would be to use "Intel® Xeon® Platinum 92XX" (or similar high throughput intel offering) with an 0.5 multiple. Does an oracle license pay attention to partial core things like hyperth

Oracle and AWS offer the same offerings at different points in the product maturity lifecycle. Oracle absolutely solves very hard problems, provides stability and continuity and is 100% the right solution (cost inclusive) for some hard prob

For a large set of problem spaces you can replace "oracle" with "cisco" or "microsoft" or "AWS". These companies demand a premium over "rolling your own" or "integrating a pile of bette

There's a business model of "Give us enough money and we will solve all your Foo related problems." Oracle has a widget to solve any IT / Data related problem for a naive enterprise who's core business is not IT.

Pretty clearly, at best, Elon is a twit. His stated views and his public actions are at odds, and his reputation for honesty or trustworthiness will be affected. But people are free to change their minds, or lie, and everyone else is fre

The OCI container is the binary. Docker is a tool to take any existing runtime and turn it into a static binary you can feed to any future linux(ish) kernel. I on the other hand, have had plenty of situations where some system somewhere

Just be sure to archive your artifacts. Both the ones you make and the ones you use to build output artifact. Otherwise, your docker build tool will work today and be a screaming mess of broken dependencies tomorrow.
