Well, anyone non-dense will tell you that most dense thing you can do is say “oh my god run for your lives” whenever there’s an outage. No statics, no cost-benefit analysis. Just commenting “Haha you can’t manage your own raids and ciscos w

That’s not what parent was asking about. The question is if a company of certain size is more likely to suffer from an outage on AWS compared to own hardware. I’ve been deploying to AWS for years and can’t remember and outage on their side

It’s pointless to discuss how crappy cloud is whenever AWS goes down. Most of the businesses relying by the automatic RDS backups or EC2 auto scaling just don’t have time to think about all the underlying tech. I mean, I don’t manually all

It’s not a question of anecdata, but statistics. I’m sorry for your loss, but you can’t argue there’re many-many people who regret USSR is no more. Just look at the polls.

She got an exit visa to the USA, yet had to smuggle rubbles? Something doesn’t add up.

Now, seeing Tupolev over the fields in the area would give you chills.

The parent said how. I know a company where people are forced to come on weekend, get underpaid, and work on patents filed under someone else’s name. Just because it’s a well-known company and looks good on the CV.

Cancer therapies might result in significant gains. We already see CAR T to be very effective. Hopefully we’ll finally crack Alzheimer’s and the likes as well.

And that’s why reproducibility studies aren’t a thing. People say “yeah that’s old news!” We need to fund independent validation. Especially knowing that private companies could massage the data to get to market.

Or maybe billions of venture funding created unrealistic growth expectations. This turned otherwise good businesses into data hogs.

If it was me, I wouldn’t be willing to go into in-depths discussions with patients since that could lead to unintended consequences. Like patient self-medicating based on what I say, even if I didn’t intend to give any advice.

Just about any researcher who published on it. It’s not unusual to see an article describing single clinical case.

Also, seems like the values changed drastically after 2015. I was told it was our moral obligation to help the refugees. Now it’s 180 degree turn. Makes you think helping people wasn’t really a value in the first place, since those can’t ch

> We pay for the wars we don't want Simple solution: don’t vote for people who start wars? The EU claims to be one of the most democratic entities. Why do people complain they’re being screwed by some minority group?
