Azure is such dogwater - Even a narcoleptic intern could run a more effective cloud service using raspberry pis and a tin can. A better question would be "is there anyone who doesn't think Azure played a role here?"

100% we rely on others for goods and services, regardless of our ability to perform said service we are able to (and should be able to) judge it. Otherwise everyone would need to be an expert in everything. In other words, I don't need

This is awesome! Not OP but I think I found something to work on - I've worked as a backend for a company like fivetran so I feel I might have something worth offering

Yeah for me this is where spotify shines over their competition - how easy (and accurate) they make discovering new music. But I suppose 1 amazing feature doesn't make up for loads of cruft.

Was effectively my experience. This on top of moving countries and not having many (any) friends at school lead to a lot of boring days.

Anecdata: I am 22 and I have a bunch of cousins but they are all from generations older than me, so while my half-siblings had a bunch of cousins to hang out with - I don't really have any. The closest I have that are my age are 3 2nd

I don't have the source at hand but I remember seeing that they wouldn't support it until it had progressed as a JavaScript proposal. Their reasoning was that the decorations API is really weak, and it will likely be changed meani

We may perceive the same pitch (perhaps with a different timbre) even if the fundamental frequency is missing from a tone [1]. It seems to me like wikipedia agrees that even if the fundamental frequency is missing we could still use some ki

Yes, the Kimba TV show is about 30 years older, but this show has basically 0 similarities with TLK. It's like saying The Simpsons is the same as The Princess Bride - yes, some individual shots and scenes are comparable but its only wh

Basically - no, the Kimba / Lion King controversy is fake (the Kimba movie often cited as the work copied was actually released 3 years after the Lion King). Check out YMS's review on this exact topic https://www.youtub

This needs to be said more, people have always fallen for these false platitudes from bosses, government and so on. Only recently has this "placation culture" really moved to companies and for whatever reason it seems our blind sp

For sure, I'm not trying to say that this is common but rather that the expectations we have around Denmark do not match the reality. I will say though that CPH is one of my favourite airports because its always clean, and easy to get

Nice! I'm also definitely on the side of preferring the lax life. I'm a foreigner living in DK and it was definitely one of the most unexpected aspects of life here. I had always had this strong impression it was much more organis

Denmark is surprisingly lax about a lot of stuff, we have an impression of Danes being a highly educated and motivated society but the reality is definitely more average. Stupid shit like this happens all the time but nothing happens becaus
