The current tech is irrelevant. It is not safer than a human driver, but that's not relevant. If regulation delays the day in the future that it is safer than human drivers and that human drivers are replaced, then it is costing live

Apparently despite those large swaths, the actual rate of hospitalization (at least as of September of 2021) is dramatically lower than most people expect. Why do you think that is?

You're making my point. The data is from the US. Somehow, despite high rates of that specific comorbidity, the data shows Americans are hospitalized at dramatically lower rates than Americans estimate. The post I replied to said: >

The point is valid. The risks of COVID-19 to people who did not have serious co-morbidities was continuously overstated. This led to measurable misunderstandings among normal people as to the actual risk. https://catalyst.indepen

And it's almost inevitable. That's why the overwhelming "Elon is so dumb" narrative seems so odd to me. "Major harm," to me, would be either bankruptcy or a competitor overtaking significant chunks of Twitter&#

It depends on your scale, but even at small scale, your central auth database is something that needs to be highly available because your whole system is down otherwise. Obviously the situation is the same when managing a token blacklist if

If that were true, then there'd be no value proposition to AWS. It is absolutely easier to use S3 than to create your own fast, highly available, infinitely scaling storage solution on your own metal. It requires more than zero knowled
