If it is the case that it is going to be extremely risky to run of MS supplied infrastructure (including Windows) we should see insurance premiums sky-rocket for companies and organisations using those platforms. Eventually, it will become

but it does? to take the word recipe literal. there is nothing from for a llm synthesizing a new dish based on knowledge about the ingredients. who knows, it might even taste good (or at least better than what the average Joe cooks)

Most of my friends in tech are mostly on sabbaticals. On occasions they pick up some work. For the past 5 years I have been working only freelance or through my own agency. Naturally, there are often times between gigs, as is the case now.

That is fundamentally wrong: I am currently setting up my workbench for federated learning to get more intimate with that field.

The title is about certainty and not truth. > Who Lusts for Certainty Lusts for Lies I think this is one of the one-liners that sound good, but is bogus at closer inspection. That articles talks about history. In that context it might ma

I think it mostly depends on purpose. Crypto is being reinvented several times a day by students needing to understand the mechanics of various algorithms. Personally, I find it rewarding to reimplement something known. There is always a so

Well, if you want a checkup, then the American system is fine, right? The issue are those people who just want glasses / contacts – Personally I know my specs, and often just go to a pharmacy to get a box of contacts. Also, I did not p

maybe the solution for Americans is to just travel abroad and get your lenses / glasses? In Tokyo they tested my eyes and sold me a pair of custom fitted glasses in 30 minutes, and it was cheap. especially when a sibling comment or tal

why would you want to develop your api in sql over a traditional language? versioned views and materialized views are essentially api endpoints in this context. just developed in sql instead of some sane language.

It is the same in Denmark (and most other Scandinavian countries). Also, Norways oil money, as you write yourself, go into their sovereign fund and does not directly fund wellfare. There are many theories why the Scandinavian model works on

I don't think the point is to either have good math or good code. When you develop software in Coq and the likes, it is library code. It is high impact code that is guaranteed to be correct. It is written once and not maintained – Yo

This is exactly how next.js works. But even more importantly: Why not use GraphQl in this situation? This is exactly what it excels at: 1. The backend can be entity centric, like it does best 2. The frontend can request a page worth of data

I don't think you entirely understand the situation. The DKK is pegged to the EUR at 750 +- some percent. This means that the Danish central bank has large foreign currency reserves to adjust the value of the DKK when trade create im

It is soft pegged and has leeway. This is, btw, exactly the reason why the interest rates are pushed down as a consequence of Novo having success. If the Danish central bank did not need to maintain this peg, they'd probably just let t

Why not? We have this notion that currency is managed in a super-political way. However, there is everything political with currencies and currency management. It is literally the difference on depression and labor shortage. For me, it is w
