I'm not sure I understood this article at all. Part of it may be because I don't understand fashion, but it was written in an overly-grandiose prose which is a bit misplaced in an article such as this. I don't want to have

I understand your point, but there is an entire makret for government contracting which is basically a monopsony. Difference complience, etc. But how much money can we really justify to deal with the hassle of a cross-cloud expense? Also

Most of those are still American businesses (twenty of twenty-nine, or over two-thirds). Another interesting way to look at it would be by revenue breakdown - I suspect the total revenue of American companies may be disproportionately high

Clean air, fresh water, walking in a forest, less trash, and diving in reefs I'm on board with. But free energy? What does that even mean? Who is going to produce that? Unless you mean something like solar, which though it has zero

This is why people are not going along with the far-left proposals. I personally will not reduce my living standard for the sake of some "green dream". How about we wait for a generation and invent the requisite technology? The

From a purely scientific view, yes, you can move energy easier than you can cool it. However, people in hot climates usually prefer cold air blowing, which takes more energy to chill.

Just sell it as a dongle. Lord knows they've done that with enough other things. For those who actually use it, it doesn't need to positioned just above the numbers.

In fairness to him, North Korea's nukes are not that much better than dirty bombs and aren't super high-yield. N. Korea also has total control of the economy because it is communist, so can starve her citizens to fund bomb constr

Merriam webster, 3: racial prejudice or discrimination https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/racism Seems pretty simple to me. I could be sarcastic and snarky too, but I'm not going to. If you've got a

I'm going to defer to you on this one, but my hunch is that NTFS being stupid and crusty is a limiting factor? In my experience, it's dog-slow (particularly on small files). Have you tested on ReFS and compared performance?

I personally never got on; life is fine without. Do yourself a favor and just get rid of it all. You can communicate personally with people fine over other methods; the idea of "broadcasting" your thoughts is better accomplished

I absolutely agree that he significantly overblows his technical acumen, and appears to make his name as a sort of ex-spokesman for open source. As you said, it seems that he's unfortunately moved more toward attacking others, which i

I'm no slack advocate, but you just described using three services to replace one. There will be some extra mental overhead to such a setup, even if it is not huge. I think something like mattermost carries the advantage of one servi

Ericsson predicts 18 billion IoT devices by 2022. Those all need code written for them. Do you still consider embedded programming a "niche"? Maybe it's one specific case, but it's relevant and ought to be "part
