It's only a counter argument if you make an assumption that H1-B program is designed to bring, specifically, healthcare or pharma workers. Unless you can point to a reason why law of supply and demand was breached, high salaries reflec

Not a very good point, though. Madoff was successful in big part because there was no one that could independently verify anything. (and apparently the government botched multiple investigations after referrals from suspicious people). That

I do that in my Go projects. In fact my "scripts" are actually part of the main executable. I use cmd-line args to invoke the needed functionality. For example, in the past I would have written a Python script to deploy my Go bina

per apple they paid $60 billion to iOS developers. Given 70/30 split, that's $26 billion of revenue to Apple. For context in 2022 Adobe made $17.6 billion. So 30% cut of iOS store is 40% more than Adobe revenue. And I'm guess

Debt can be good when used as leverage. As I understand it, the majority of debt of car companies is used to provide leases. So e.g. GM borrows money at X% interest rate and gives credit to customers at X+Y%. Y% is their profit. So the bigg

Minor correction: Go compiler used to be a modification of Plan9 C compiler, then a Go port of that modification but then it was completely rewritten as a SSA-based compiler so today it has almost nothing to do with the original Plan9 code.

It'll be equally hard to write it from scratch in rust as it would be to add this to esbuild. Maybe there are some considerations I don't know about but it does seem like hard forking esbuild would be much faster way to get there

I don't like lack of pricing either. It would be a deal breaker for me as far as using their stuff. Maybe that's because they're in beta. But the actual capabilities of their service - it just sounds like you didn't even

When it comes to services like that, the underlying db engine is the least interesting aspect. I haven't used SqliteCloud so I can't vouch for them but they make a pretty good case for their technology: https://blog.sql

It's a great story but I can't think of it as an example of general financial illiteracy. Corvette lt1 is $70k which was $40k in 1993. It would be $780k today if invested in S&P 500. A nice retirement safety net. It would be $

Ignoring that Prius is a hybrid and not an EV: Toyota sold 30k in 2023, the lowest number ever. Tesla sold 400k of Model Y and 210k of Model 3 and 31k of Model X in 2024. So Model Y outsold Prius by 13x in US in 2023. --- https://
