Yep, things should be made clear to whoever cares about your service's SLA that our SLA is contingent upon AWS's SLA et al. AWS' SLA would be the lower bound :)

This ain't anti-intellectualism. Scala fanatics (more like FP fanatics who use scala) write overly completed code just for purity's sake. Its ok, but it creates a maintenance nightmare and a huge hiring problem.

This is what people don't understand, the CCP is not playing a co-operation game. They will play a co-operation game until they get what they want from you. After that its the domination game. It's like patriotism, nationalism hav

They won't even be able to cross the road, hence for the CCP the age old question "Why did the chicken cross the road?" is meaningless :)

hahah .... who will evaluate the evaluator's evaluations? Seems to be extremely subjective. May be they should go with a 50/50 split for SAT and the subjective criteria. This won't be perfect but both camps would be covered.

No, what he is saying is that preparing for the SAT (or any competitive exam) is like an arms race. Immigrants from asia (where it is already hyper-competitive and the population is more) will be determined and over-prepare and clear the SA

I agree, but maintaining a large codebase in a statically typed language as compared to a dynamic language is magnitudes easier. As the codebase grows larger, if people dont have the discipline to write proper code, the code will get more a
