I fundamentally disagree. Flawed? sure.. useless hype?? yeah well are all the people loving it just stupid.. or is it just placebo? The author makes a lot of conjecture with very, very little backing. I love docker. I'm a programm

old leases = below market rate? they are already well distributed for ten zillion amazon lockers? it doesn't seem so far fetched to me; amazon being able to pick up a bunch of cheap space in fell swoop.

This is not a question about journaling; this is just a question about encrypting data. There are tons of ways to do it that meet your threat model. You can just use a linux machine with disk encryption.. it happens by magic if you click th

It certainly matters very much. I didn't mean to imply 'none of this matters'; rather, that the internet is anti-fragile and will continue to service humanity in more-or-less the same way regardless of any law (at least that

Though I am a staunch supporter of net neutrality (primarily because so much tax payer money and publicly owned assets have gone into laying the actual pipe), I don't really fear a non-open internet. VPNs are already usable by any moti

SSRIs are known to reduce the effects of hallucinogens. LSD, and hallucinogens in general are extremely useful in personal growth. The novelty of 'reality' literally breaking down can be quite a thrill; and for many people it wil

Although that is a sad story, the story itself shows he was cognizant of what he was doing. I think very few people would argue LSD or any drug at all (caffeine included) are harmless in the strictest sense of the word. But perhaps the p

Even if they are engaging in speculation, it would be more rational for them to quit mining and spend the money they would spend on electricity to buy bitcoin on the open market.

Right; but they were getting fucked over in the fiat world left and right up until that point too. Not saying they didn't over-promise and under-deliver but you can't really examine these things in a vacuum.

That might be overly cynical. IF it's true that there is some fundamental way-of-thinking or personality trait that is both in a large minority of people, and necessary to be a proficient programmer; it is extremely valuable to know

Absolutely! You charge a super fat risk premium. My whole point is that clients will pay significant insurance (easily 100% premium) on a flat rate project. I don't talk about hours with my clients when doing flatrate work. I am abl

The only thing wonky about this is the price. I really like the idea of having curated, nice strains delivered. However, this is really a service for aficionados, (I think?.. who else would possibly smoke even an eighth a month regularly).
