The average person in most of those countries drinks tap water, either boiled or filtered to varying levels of efficiency. In addition, fish are often caught in surface water, livestock may drink it, etc.

Engagement is a pretty shitty metric when used in isolation though. I've worked at places where changes that increased engagement were considered successful at higher levels even though the support team knew the increased engagement wa

My extended family shares a paid Slack instance and it works great. Some of them are on Facebook as well, mostly for marketplace and groups; I don't use FB (I am not really interested in seeing glimpses of distant relatives' lives

I guess clicks are the primary metric Google has to evaluate the quality of the ad; if the ad is rarely clicked they can assume it's not relevant to the keyword. The other thing is that impressions have a non-zero (albeit generally low

It's not a binary "dry/wet" thing. If you live in a humid place, you can probably remove quite a bit of moisture from the air before you encounter those symptoms.

The repeated mentions of chickenpox are weird. Apart from ending in the same sequence of three characters chickenpox and monkeypox/smallpox have nothing in common. The name similarity is accidental.

There isn't really a meaningful difference; either way the immune system is responding to a protein and "remembering" it. mRNA breaks down within a few days, by which point spike protein production by your cells has stopped,

> since the current mRNA vaccine is causing our body to create old spike protein Your body only briefly produced spike protein after vaccination. The lasting immunity isn't caused by ongoing spike protein production.

I doubt anything Atlassian builds is anywhere near that limit.

It's a mistake. They keep track of numbers they've already used, but in this case failed to do so properly.

Anti-interception would make more sense, but it doesn't sound nearly as badass, and when you're offering a service that 99.9% of people don't need, sounding badass helps a lot.

Yeah this doesn't make sense to me. I've used my iPhone with NFC to pay for transit in multiple cities in multiple countries, I don't see any reason Melbourne Trams can't implement it too.

I would say on average the % is higher among companies that would be operationally capable to run across multiple clouds. We made the conscious decision to buy mostly commodity services from clouds in order to be able to easily use multiple

base64 simply has nothing to do with security; it's not meaningful to ask whether it's "that insecure". It isn't used for security purposes; it's used to encode bytes that may lie outside a certain range into a

Of the ones that I know details about in Europe and Asia, not a single one of them are AWS owned and operated. I'm sure the situation is different in the US, and wouldn't be surprised if they own and operate all of their US DCs.

I'm pretty sure a majority of AWS AZs globally are still not in AWS-owned-and-operated facilities.

Most Starbucks (again, possibly a non-US perspective) will make your drink in a ceramic cup/mug if asked. Only the smallest kiosk-type ones can't do it.

Indeed; for example the recent arrival and success of Starbucks in Italy was in some ways possible because of the pre-existing growth of 'craft'-type coffee shops which had expanded the idea of coffee, and of a coffee shop, beyond

Meh, it's not that bad (at least outside the US, I've never been to a Starbucks in the US). I've been to plenty of places where Starbucks is the best espresso you can find.

I just use Nespresso. It's not as cheap as instant coffee, but nowhere near as expensive as a serious coffee obsession can be. The basic ristretto capsules are tasty enough, always consistent, and it's arguably even more instant t
