Do you have a document that explains the architecture of the product? I searched a bit on your github and website but didn't find anything. Apologies in advance if I've missed something very obvious :-).

The scale of time in fields like astrophysics and geology never ceases to amaze me. When I saw freshly made, I thought it was recently created. Turns out it dropped on earth some time in the last 10 million years.

https://emacsformacosx.com/ works fine with Rosetta. Edit: actually they've published a universal binary now which should work natively on M1.

You can try feedly[0] as it has at least some of the above — smart labels, custom grouping and easy access to discussions (on hn at least - I don't use the others). There's also a premium version which may support some of the othe

The only disadvantage I can think of is that you won't be able to run VMs on it (yet). I have to work on both Windows and Mac, so though I have an M1 (and I love it) I'm spending more time on a Linux machine these days as I'm

If you're already very comfortable with Python then that should be your first choice for the backend. You can be flexible with the framework though - Flask[0] is also popular, or you can try one of the new async ones like FastAPI[1]. F

I had tried both a couple of years back and at that time s5cmd was significantly faster when downloading multiple (100s) of files, hence my loyalty to it. Of course both are actively developed projects, so things might have changed since.

s5cmd[0], written in Go, performs cp in parallel to/from s3 too. I've been using it for some time and it's plenty fast. https://github.com/peak/s5cmd

> Wait, were you fired then hired back? In this person's case the firing might have been a mistake, but rehiring is not so uncommon. The large (Fortune 500) tech company I worked at at the time laid off a bunch of people - mostly in

Heretics belonged in the 6th Circle, and Mohammed was in the 8th, so clearly Dante thought he had done something more than just heresy.

I don't know much about Algeria, but most cars and motorcycles sold in India are built here from the ground up with most of the parts sourced locally. There are a few luxury brands like Lexus, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Harley-Davidson motor

Not really. Most of the above information is gleaned from news articles.

> just assemble from knockdown kits Assemble, yes, but a lot of the components also come from India. Xiaomi, for example, source 65% of their components from India itself. Of course, the really important parts like the processor, screen,

Why do you say there is nothing to show for it? To take one example - mobile phones - India is now the second largest manufacturer of mobile phones in the world [0]. Samsung recently started the largest mobile phone manufacturing unit in th

i-Flex (now Oracle Financials as you have pointed out) is not a service company - Flexcube is their own product.

i-Flex, the maker of Flexcube, was my first company out of college. I stuck around only for a month or so, but in that time we had a brief training on the software. The interface was a smorgasbord of buttons and inputs, and I couldn't

That would be China I suppose. It's the only major economy that didn't contract this year (grew by 2.3%).

Or the culprit is famous, like Salman Khan (the actor, not the one from Khan Academy).

India has far more two-wheelers than cars. The 57 million figure probably excludes the former because in 2016 India had ~250 million vehicles of all types [0] (so it's probably over 300 million now). This is an important distinction in

I don't understand their scoring system. Why would you give equal weightage to confirmed cases/deaths and confirmed cases/deaths per million people? Conversely, why consider only tests/1000 people and not also total test

That's true. I can easily get more than a day's worth of work (coding + reading + browsing for reference) out of the M1 without having to reach for my charger. Of course I mostly use vim for coding, so YMMV if you're using so
