Indeed! Social media amplified vaxxers, climate change deniers and all the possible fringe lunatics you can find. The social media should be much limited by the physical aspect, for example, if you never met the person in a real-life event,

Ain't it ironic? From all the excellent desktop oriented frameworks we have, developers and users seem to prefer cross-platform compatibility that web techologies enable. Consistent UX seems to be winning over all the technological sup

Ironically, all these Chinese based SaaS seem to go quite along the lines of the LoTR story (Zoom, Tik-Tok).

It's a pattern as old as the technology and civilization dependent on it: 1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. 2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the la

The problem is that your "cattle" has mad cow disease and no amount of restarting will help.

The most helpful thing for competition right now would be breaking up the FAAG. Alas, the US wields a lot of power with them across the world, so that won't happen.

With great power comes responsibility that we mostly fail to bear.

Actually most of the (christian) theology (when discussed by theologists) within its confines is very rigorous.

That's how people start talking past each other just to prove their own worldview. And that's not communication.

I agree. The problem is that "true scepticism" demands a disciplined mind in a relatively stable emotional state. That's not what usually what happens in our daily lives.

That's what postmodern era is. End of belief. IMO that's the fruit of scepticism as a way of life which has become well entrenched in the modern, well educated societies. As if we're in another stage of consequences of eating

I agree with _dsr, he really nailed it. As for GitLab I agree they got the balance right except that it feels quite Kubernetes centric.

Kinesis Advantage was a game changer for me too. But when I type on my laptop for a day or two the pain is back. The pain also depends on the stress level, because it seems that I type with more tightened fingers (as is the whole body as we

We don't only need variation, we need rhythm. We live in an a-rhythmic world where in the evening the morning events feel like yesterday, where weeks whoosh by like days, rattled with the constant flurry of calls, messages, notificatio

IMO the Kubernetes is a "open source bait and switch" business model. 1. Let the potential customers run it for free 2. Wait for them to break their teeth on it. 3. Offer them GKE. 4. Profit!!! To me the whole situation about k8s

Amy Winehouse had a beautiful voice and really smart backup producers and musicians that refreshed and rehashed old styles of music as new. Beautiful and enjoyable, but not groundbreaking.
