Anyone can visit, but staying here means having a job. The migration to the Bay Area is because cities approved the construction of so many office buildings (and continue to do so).

I'm not talking about legal rights. Surely they've managed the contributor agreement to make this option possible. However, they also built a community around open source software and there's more to that relationship than le

I only worked with the Akka ecosystem a little, but if I had made a major career or business investment in it I'd be pretty unhappy about this. There's nothing wrong with closed source software and I want the authors to make money

Very different choice of topics compared to Kubernetes: Up and Running. The table of contents is almost entirely focused on the details of how pods work. I'll wait for some reviews on whether the depth matches the focus. Edit: The revi

Wow, like when Google shut down Orkut despite it being huge in Brazil and India.

There are stories of Venmo transfers that do not include ACH (ie the source of funds is a venmo balance) being difficult or impossible to reverse. That's purely a product choice by Paypal.

Transfers within Venmo fake immediacy. If it depends on an ACH transfer (ie the money is coming from a bank account and not an existing Venmo balance) then the money will be taken back if the ACH fails. It's transfers between Venmo and

That looks cool. If there was a tool to generate bindings to go libs I'd use it in my current side project.

Agree. ReasonML threw the baby out with the bathwater. If ever there's a language to not immatate it's Javascript. Would be interesting to see a something that updated some ocaml quirks, but stayed true to the spirit of the syntax

A proprietary wrapper around a few k8s objects? Where's the big win? It's not clear what problem Acorn is solving.

What do you think drilling rigs, pipeline leaks, and carbon emissions are doing right now? The impact on nature by renewables is dramatically lower. But your comment focuses on what's visible so no, I'm not put off by that. Wind t

I've never thought of syntax highlighting as helping me understand a program. Useful when I'm scanning code, though.

We're talking about whether Putin's character was something a country like Germany could bank its energy policy on starting in the 2010s. That's not a question of international law, of US policy in 1999, or US actions in Iraq

The question is whether it was ever reasonable to see Putin as a reliable partner. The first thing he did in office was launch a brutal invasion, stifle the press, and ignore war crimes committed by the Russian army. Is that someone a peace

My impression is that Electron can wrap whatever backend you want to use. Is that not the case?

The idea that municipal governance should intentionally disadvantage "transients, students, travelers, and so on" is appalling to me. This directly feeds into wealth inequality and the cycle of poverty. I get that people will want

In a world with stable rents, renters also become long term residents and invested in the community. If someone’s only “invested” financially I doubt that they have the community’s interests at heart.

As long as people can't afford to buy they're "less invested" so no reason to address housing affordability... In the modern housing market that's a self fulfilling prophecy. How about that principle of one person,

> there's zero point subsidizing demand for something when supply in inelastic. Agree, but that also means cutting those subsidies will not affect supply either. Minimal impact and politically difficult...

I'll take the K8s API model over aws/gcp/azure/etc specific tools. I hope it expands to cover everything I need.
