Canary Islands have good internet connectivity. At least Tenerife does. Beautiful and affordable place too.

If she is paid based on deliverables it’s perfect. If he is paid by the hour, and the employers don’t know about the double job, value can be eroded and it’s hard to keep it fair. If someone hires you on a per hour basis they expect best ef

Just like Americans. Information freedom is no panacea but I think it helps. It’s just that it has a long lead time.

They do mention in the customer commitment document that they will not use data from Calibra to improved as targeting on the Facebook platform.

Indeed they have. They are far from perfect. But the top few cryptocurrencies have a decent track record.

Value and it's underpinnings act in very bizzare ways, and people might assign value to something just because other people do as well. Regarding Bitcoin, one of the reasons people assign value to it is because it offeres a way to keep

I prefer this approach as well. We shouldn’t ban anything but instead tax pollution and other externalities accordingly (high taxation level). This way solution can appear slowly, without outright banning whole industries. The principle bei

Correctly implemented concurrency/parallelism primitives are not a bad idea. I am thinking along the lines of Clojure/Erlang/Go. They make life more enjoyable.

OCaml would have seen so much more adoption if it had a solid multicore story. It really is a shame, because it's a nice language.

Not sure about the spam, but I regularly do jobs and for the money I pay, the value is great. I also think they streamlined the experience pretty well. I personally use the shotgun approach sometimes where I hire multiple designers and just

I appreciate the lengthy reply and I sympathise with your concern regarding the cargo culting of technology trends. It's not the first time it happens nor the last. I disagree in general with your view and I think that past few years h

I dislike this proposal for the same reason. Looks like a function but does not behave like a normal one. I personally don't mind the verbose error handling in go and I think it's clear and easy to follow.

Try mediation to identify and get more comfortable with the feelings that trigger the procrastination or task avoidance. Once you start on that path and identify the problems you can also make changes in your life, instead of just accepting

Missed that one. The gVisor calls are closer to 40k but the difference is indeed big.

where did you get the 100x number? Haven't seen it on the page you provided. Also, I checked previously gVisor and the performance indeed worse, but nowhere even close to 100x worse.

The annoying part is that the operating system allows this and doesn’t have a good way for users to restrict service startup.

And how would you stop accepting the outward movement of people educated in Romania? Not sure if you are proposing to restrict freedom of movement, but that would be pretty hard to pass, and frankly scary. As I see it, the only reasonable w

I see several comments from user "andreslucena", who apparently is one of the founders of the project, and they are all dead. Why did this happen? I am totally confused.

I thought water is the obvious thing. As far as I know dehydration is the main reason for hang overs and in my experience, drinking water while drinking alcohol removes almost in totality the hangover side effects.

There is a new consensus algorithm called Avalanche, which apparently starts a new, 3rd category. You can read the white paper here: https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmUy4jh5mGNZvLkjies1RWM4YuvJh5o2FYopNPV...

What is your opinion on handshake.org? I am excited about it’s potential even though it has a massive uphill battle to gain adoption. The main reason why I’m excited about it is because it could also be used as a cryptographic identity that
