   I totally agree, I really want a Caterham 7 with 4 electric hub motors and the battery where the engine used to go. It seems like it should be actually pretty cheap to build. I do think the reason we havn't seen this class yet is that

   There was something like an order of magnitude delcine in the number of teller positions when banks rolled out ATM's. They've been around for so long that most people don't remember when they were uncommon. But ask yourself t

   ATM's killed bank tellers for the most part, people changed how they work in banks to move up the value chain. The same thing will happen. Also, expect a backlash to AI taking human service jobs. Like having to scan a QR code at a rest

   Every task orchestration tool kinda has a crappy security model. Sure they're a ton of them but when you start putting it all over the place it's just a hectic to get right. That is a feel the space someone could make gains in a b

    Australia digs A LOT of stuff out of the ground. People (mining lobbyists pretending to be politicians) are mad because the Sun shines on Australia for free and the wind blows for free. Nuclear policy in Australia is more about maintaining

    You can just use less of the features in S3. You don't need to use them all. It really does work fine as simple crud storage.

    Part of that is also a fact that renters face the pressure that real estate firms now use big data to manage the rent accross a set of units. They know people will keep paying to avoid the skids so they can keep both rents high, and vacant

    You are not wrong. But my god, the tech debt in any slightly older web app's CSS is bonkers. Even with really well thought out templates you still end up with ~5000 line css files that have all sorts of state and magic in them. And li

    For China to take Taiwan, it would represent China doing the most complex surprise invasion that even the US military couldn't probably pull off. Assaulting a beach head is up there as possible the most difficult thing you can do. In W

    This is a good article. I always try and articulate these point by talking about how useful and quick and dense phone books where when they existed. And as for fast load times. Might I say that server side rendering may just have a reason t
