The war started before that happened with the invasion of Crimea so that makes little to no sense. There are some people who believe almost any impossible idea. Also if it was a war about water the war would have been won now. Russia manage

So are you saying aliens or some unknown advanced civilization built Amazon? No, just like the Pyramids it was built by huge number of ordinary humans with ordinary technology.

I would say Atlantis is like a slightly more falsifiable and slightly more plaudible version of Russell's Teapot. We have zero reason to think Atlantis existed and zero indications of it. Is it possible that there was an advanced civil

No, they are not skilled enough to hack anything. These are just a bunch of average junior engineers with hubris.

Businesses like clear timetables which is the opposite of what Trump is doing right now. So no matter your theories about tariffs what he is doing cannot be good for business.

In my experience it is the other way round. The reason people are on Twitter is because politicians are there. If they move the journalists and politically interested will quickly follow.

by jeltz 2y ago
Ordinary people are on neither. The group which is on Twitter are politicians and they can decide to move to Mastodon if they want.

It is much more likely that the NYT journalist misunderstood something. The question is what.

The reason we pay for ICMBs is to prevent warmongers like Putin from invading countries which would be bad for the whole global economy. So you get advantage from ICMBs all the time indirectly.

Which is also happens to be the average daily milk consumption in the Netherlands. They drink 340 kg per year on average which is 33 oz per day. And people used to drink more milk back then.

Yes, I have watched that happen both in microservices and monoliths.
538.
by jeltz 2y ago
It is pretty easy. A lot of people worked on badly coded monoliths and then we got the microservice fad and turns out microservices was not a silver bullet solution for bad code and bad organizations. I personally don't believe at all

My experience has been the total opposite. When each team is responsible for a service then to build anything complex you need to have meetings with stakeholders from a bunch of teams. So much time wasted on coordination compared to when wo

And this organizational overhead is why I disagree with his setion about structuring your organization to fit microservices. I have seen first hand over horrible it is when services do not share DBA resources for example. Every service has
