Why not just use a cloud offering? The AWS analysis is interesting, but there are other great offerings like Google's colab, which offers a free GPU https://colab.research.google.com/notebooks/intro.ipynb .

The funnier thing would be to create knock-off clothing and sell it hella' cheap, flooding the market with indistinguishable fakes.

Becuase curl uses system certs as opposed to ones bundled with the browser. Also this is off-topic, read the article, he was an incredible human being.

Bit snarky, but all I got from this post is "because it doesn't." Many languages don't require a main function. In fact, the earliest languages like LISP (and even punchcards!) don't require it, let alone many other

Well, it's more severe now and as you pointed out yourself, it's becoming increasingly common. Not to mention a shift to renewables (despite some developing countries continuing to rely on oil), which may add increasing pressure.

This is silly. Product managers are not "brand managers" — a good one is far more technical. Google has never claimed to "invent" 20% time — 3M and a great number of other organizations have doubtlessly used something ak

I think all clients are a bit questionable since it's such a complex format and because most clients are not written in safe languages. Although they're rarer, even Mac OS X's Preview.app has had CVEs.
