There was certainly some kind of hype for 2.0 for those who were looking to upgrade their 1.x installations.

vfat only won in the sense that if you're forced to use windows you still have to use vfat. In every other context there is a better option. I haven't needed to move files to a windows box in 15 years so—to me—it's a massive

Wait staff have their own minimum wages. Iirc it's under $3/hour. That said, it's not uncommon to get at least minimum wage.

To answer you seriously—I think a great contrast would be the simplicity of Go. The GC and type system are both the opposite of providing complexity to the user; they provide the only way to get anything done, and it's easy to keep in

Nothing about string theory is provable. If you throw a stone in a physics class you'll hit a new theory working with higher dimensions. A really simplified explanation might be "there's a qualitative attribute that means som

It really depends on the size of the company and how sales are done. Also, maybe it's more about understanding the product? Just a thought.

I suppose you can't discover that which doesn't exist, but it sounds more like you're shorhorning an argument that doesn't fit. The App Store is a piece of shit for finding apps and this will only help that experience. Y

You certainly can do that. A little discussed benefit (or curse) of a microservice is maintaining an API (as opposed to ABI). Changes are slower and people put more thought into the interface as a discrete concern. I am curious if an ideal

AI is by nature abstract. Once it's not abstract, there is typically a more useful term for it: classification, recognition, search, etc etc. What do you mean by doing AI right? Apple's track record with doing something right appl

Oh they definitely do. It's just a different flavor and the debt scales differently. Ideally the debt amortizes across the services so you can solve a problem across multiple places. This is obviously really difficult to discuss or ana

The main benefit of microservices is not performance, it is decoupling concerns. As scale goes up, performance goes down and decoupling gives a better marginal return: it's often easier to work with abstract networking concerns across

No, they've been mediocre, like most people. This is entirely different than being "completely" corrupt. I've also certainly not witnessed corruption personally. If the government were "completely" corrupt I do

What's the point? If you honestly believe the entire government is corrupt I have no shared basis of rationality. Just enjoy your half of the country, I'll enjoy mine.

Because calling a government completely corrupt is hyperbole. Find me a government, I'll find you an honest bureaucrat that manages to help people in spite of being a government employee.

Well that's the thing, isn't it? Are you really more likely to be unhappy (or happy) unless you've seen both worlds? Happiness is relative to your frame of reference. Disease is unfortunate. So is the destruction of our earth

Isn't this just shine theory, albeit without the intent to support a minority? I don't think it is so hard for a human to recognize alternative forms of greatness.
