Please pick any semi-advanced economy other than USA when talking about healthcare. USA is well known for its corrupt healthcare system. You are picking the worst of the worst as an example.

Why? Seems pretty sensible. Employer-employee is a business relationship. Treat it as such.

That is covered by "pretty much anything." That doesn't mean absolutely everything.

Yeah, I love these insights. If you are interested, here are insights from making a COBOL to C# compiler: https://github.com/otterkit/otterkit-cobol/issues/40 I am now convinced that COBOL is just a high leve

The reason why car keys are using chips is because physical safety sucks so much in comparison with digital. The fact is we are better at it because of failure of state to establish the safe environment. Generally protection and safe enviro

We are not engineers. We are craftsmen, instead of working with wood, we work with code. What most customers want is an equivalent of "I need a chair, it should look roughly like this." If they want blueprints and documentation (e

What do you mean by "inappropriate technical decisions"?

Not really. They have official help topic as well as UI to switch accounts: Sign in to multiple accounts at once. I literally have same phone number at both, so it would be easiest thing in the world to add verification for uniqueness of th

Just make a new Google account. It's not like you have to fill correct info and you can make two accounts with same phone number (at least I could ~1 year ago).

Yeah, MS Azure DevOps is still alive, though stagnant. I thought everyone would be moved to GitHub in few years after MS acquired GitHub. Yet here we are, 6 years later.

So do they say. I am reminded of Google Flu Trends [0]. They likely also did similar "verification" and it didn't work. > The initial Google paper stated that the Google Flu Trends predictions were 97% accurate comparing w

National security angle is also often overlooked. China is not self sufficient in airplane manufacturing. Not now and back then it was only a plan. What would they do in case of airplane export ban? They could keep existing ones airworthy,

It's visible. Start at Taklamakan Desert Highway and go along it. TBH, I would like to know how much water it take to grow trees around the highway through middle of desert, but that is for another topic.

Every project has critics, but it is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness. See the man, the wife, the donkey, and the critics. Yes, it's possible it will not deliver, but this seems to be classic way to combat desertific

Yeah, you are right. Though I am not worried about latest and greatest. We can easily run everything on Sandy Bridge from 2011. It's the other stuff that is underappreciated. Everything has chips in it. From thermometers through vacuum

Broadcom paid $69bn. Revenue in 2023 was $13bn. Operating income $3.74 bn. Net Income $1.3 bn. I don't see a future where they can extract money they paid for, even with their practices. This is the first year. Everyone is working on

Sure, but comparing big cloud to physical box is kind of pointless. The reason for cloud is to save on things like reliability, compliance, maintenance, security, ease of development or scale. Cloud is really expensive, but so is doing it y
