Not really a solution, as there’s plenty of countries now (eg Australia, nz) where cash is not useful anymore, because many physical merchants no longer accept it. The number grows every year.

Anecdotally it seems to heat much more evenly, without the lava and ice pockets my old microwave left.

I bought this one for the same reason , two simple knobs , no BS keypads and presets. It was expensive but I love it, more than I expected.

I’m guessing they mean the lack of manual import/use statements. Tends to annoy folk coming from other languages

Police aren’t going to help you with bank issues, and the courts don’t care if there’s a local branch or not, as the hypothetical lawsuits are filed against HQ . It’s just not true. It makes people like OP _feel_ better because they have s

There are a particular set of AML/KYC laws for which none of that will ever help. They can’t tell you why, they can’t stop it next time. It sucks but there’s nothing any financial org can do about it.

FYI all those examples are PE, not VC. Fairly different. Not that VC doesn’t have its own problems, but yeah.

Not only is it not a viable solution (we as mankind just ain’t gunna voluntarily degrow ever, sorry), but it’s not even necessary. We have the technology to decarbonize the majority of the economy already. We already put 1% of the worlds gd

I gave FTuasa a go after seeing it mentioned here a lot. Unfortunately it seems the investment part is very manual compared to TurboTax. I have a couple of robotrader , brokerage accounts etc. on TurboTax it’s a few clicks and that’s import

yeah this is the actual point - it makes the code/app totally portable & decoupled from config. I find it significantly better than having to have the app code choose different config based on interrogating facts about its runtime

Love me an over simplified solution for a very complex problem.

Sort of - the outsourcing problems are usually described as in descending order: cultural differences, timezone differences, language challenges, general communication overhead and talent availability. All those could be true with remote,

Great explanation, and I agree with one caveat - from my experience if you get to a truly large single RDBMS you have already lost, even if you have a powerful enough machine to run it on. Massive RDBMS instances are awful to manage. Hard t

its discussed literally every time a remote work/rto post comes up on this site. And then the usual responses about how international offshoring has been tried before various times and it mostly doesnt work for XYZ reasons etc etc

i think you should look up the phrase, because thats exactly what it refers to. That we need two full time incomes to afford a house is a new thing, and is the "trap" we have built for ourselves.

Idk I have a kid and I think that’s a BS line. It’s explainable; saying it’s some mysterious unknowable thing is a cop out.

Also, the modern problem of both parents being forced to work. Previously one would stay home. The two income trap is real.

Being doing it for decade+, ever since the 12 factor app concept became popular. It’s way more common imho for web apps than stderr logging.

Is that really an alternate universe? That’s the universe that splunk and friends are selling, everything’s a log. It’s really expensive.

Rabbitmq sucks to scale. clustering and partitioning were terrible for a long time, maybe still is. Clusters dying in split brained ways, nodes crashing terribly / unrecoverable if they exceed iops or storage limits. You couldn’t pay m

They won’t even not notice the difference, they will never transfer anything by wire. No chance to even notice. This is such a non issue

the 11" had quite a large bezel - with its thin bezel the m2 13" is actually very close to the same size. 2012 mba 11: 300 x 192 (11.8 x 7.56 inches) 2023 mba m2: 304 x 215 (11.97 x 8.46 inches) ~ same width, and only ~2cm deeper

Siri does absolutely suck though. There’s not really any credible defense at this point.

Lol I’m betting they wont. GC has pretty much nothing to do with squares real challenges - you’re confusing your personal preferences with actual business utility.

Also the vast array of managed services. Managed databases, message queues, infinite storage, data warehouses, caches , etc etc. Many of which are very complicated to host well yourself and operationize (failovers, monitoring , backups etc)
