That depends on your mental model. The isolation and reproducibility of Docker is much easier for me than dealing with build pack nonsesne.

That's a good point, the solar energy is not created. My point is that CO2 can be removed while creating useful energy (in this case, converting a transient source to a durable one). I thought parent was being overly dramatic, even sim

Are you familiar with photosynthesis?

If you use it as such, of course it is. Filesystem DBs been around forever. What point are you trying to make?

Gving the gift of a romance novel to a non-significant other is strange. Please consider that if the gift is from a man, most women would see it as odd at best, a misguided come-on at worst.

Yes, the Waukesha diversion shows that if a community is patient and wealthy enough, the lakes are for sale. At the risk that we share sources, https://www.amazon.com/Great-Lakes-Water-Wars/dp/159726637X is great

I worked in a startup eng. org that worked everybody to the bone for several months with a dubious SOA overhaul. The prize was a cheap open bar. At least it looked like an open bar, privately reserved and such. We each got two raffle-style

Yes. The map is sensationalist trash. Not to say that global warming won't impact the lakes: The far more likely outcome is depletion, as water diversions considered unthinkable become politically feasible, both within and without the

How is raw lack of experience different from lack of experience? Greater risk of food poisoning?

A normal wealthy person, maybe. To many people, an offer like that is a ticket out of poverty.

There have been "sting operations" where cops offered somebody a ridiculous low price on some drugs, then busted them for going for it. Easy to get caught trafficking several kilos of coke when you paid $100 a kilo. Sounds like en

A less pessimistic take is that it would be unprecedented, and we have no idea what would happen.

Another take on this would be to open source components developed, but not the application itself, and be more subtle about the client mess. That's a better way to get some positive marketing out of what would be wasted time.

Agree that it's not the most professional look. However, the sort of client with the concern you mentioned has an NDA, IP agreement, lawyers... I don't think they'll care much. The greater risk to the contractor is that this

I much prefer billing by hours/days with clear payment terms in the MSA, and iterative delivery,. Clients understand that if they don't pay, they're not going to get much. Project-based estimates with up-front payment probabl

There's no need to read aggression in my comment or to reply like that. I was simply stating this for readers who might feel self-conscious about being skinny, as I did when I read the comment. Western culture very much shames skinny,

> I go to the gym so she does not have a skinny boyfriend. PSA, there's nothing wrong with being skinny, and some people prefer a skinny partner.

It's important to notice parallels though. For instance, I have no good, novel startup ideas now, just like in 2003, 2008, and 2011. Oh wait, that's been true every year :(

It has URL overrides, but the input format is a mystery so I've only effectively used them to whitelist a full domain.

Since you're race baiting, I'd like to point out that there are plenty of us white guys out here who are not from privileged backgrounds and who have worked very hard to get to where they are. Please stop with the prejudice, for
