Go is a little different here- originally it was totally decentralized, there was no central registry, just URLs. So you could depend on everything, no effect on other packages. No rules on publishing or unpublishing either, because you jus

Kaiser in California is pretty great. It's like an all-in-one thing[1] with the general doctors, pharmacies, specialists etc all under one roof. It's bureaucracy heavy, but sensible, sort of thing. [1]: this arrangement is also te

The problem is "diversity" is too mealy mouthed for the specific finger they're trying to point- kids from Guatemala (or insert any other country with a high number of recent emigres) who don't speak or read English don&

I feel like you're implying that this is caused by personal data collection and tracking, but it's not- you can get there pretty easily, in a small to medium sized app, with just user tables, or users + things configured. The gian
