Hmmm, I dont like the article however there is some logic here. If you are a low risk adult, and if you have the option to infect yourself at home, you would only have to isolate for 2-3 weeks until you have developed immunity and are good

From a UX perspective there's one great service that the banks provide and that is identity managament. In my opinion this is the main reason why things like cryptocurrencies have not taken off, and that is because their identity &

What's sad about this is that CircleCI actually has a great product and is one of the nicest ways to do end to end automation for mobile development/releases. Having their pipeline in place actually feels quite liberating. The sad

The impressive thing is that this is competitive even before we have a carbon market in place which would make all gas peaker plants too expensive if they had to pay a market rate for dumping/storing their carbon.

Hang on a sec, you're assuming that the water is smoothly accelerating at 9.81ms^2 for the entire 2km way down. You forgot to subtract energy losses due to drag which cancel out your exponential advantage.

It's if you're using on the server side, all packages/dependencies included and running on your nodejs-backend have full access to your network and filesystem, even if it's just a css styles library, if updated it there&

I agree with this 100%. The only logical reason yes is job security and that's about it.

Yes, they do make it incredibly easy for you to do node, you know what else they do?! They make it completely insecure by default. If you don't know what I mean by that, then you should probably go with a serverless architecture instea

There are more drastic ways to cool the planet and they're actually economically feasible too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJFtdvrTZs4 By no means are they safe or anything, the environmental impact is vast and wit

Weirdly enough this actually gives me a lot of hope for humanity and is the beginning of a realistic and scalable solution to climate change. The main problem with the free market has been lack of accountability and dollar damage projection

Investors are already snapping up real estate in southern Canada creating a housing crisis. We're actively trying to address this problem, it's not new.

I can't comment on whether it works or not because most of the article is paywalled for me, but what I can comment on is on a logical observation of the free market. It is not free, it's expensive to be poor. It's always chea

Well, if they can afford to pay market-rate insurance on the liability of their sequestration method then yeah sure.

This can apply here too. The amount of oil that can be safely burned is finite. Meaning there's only so much air to burn, and it should be auctioned off at market value, thus it gets more and more expensive over time. We pay for garbag

So by not fishing at all in the protected 11% portion of their fishing area, they're projected to get more fish due to the spillover effect. Well, no surprises there. We rarely ever do these economic projections. They can apply to so m

Actually they could and did raise enough to buy themselves out and have done so every time.

Looking at the competition, ford, VW, Mercedes. Their battery production numbers look pretty mediocre. Also their cars are less and less competitive in a rising carbon market.

The author briefly touched on how it's also expensive in countries with similar law-systems like Canada and Australia. It may just be that our laws make it a lot easier for contractors to jack up government contracts. My personal opini

That's interesting, and very informative thanks. No I have not tried it however, based on your information, this looks ideal for something like showing auto-playing video on a splash screen using your API to pull the file on the client

There is one missing piece to all this, I/O. Given they publish their apps on all platforms they could probably add this in the future as an ssd or PCIe storage tier by doing regular disk benchmarks. However it seems like a major limit

The V8 runtime itself is pretty secure. However every npm package has total access to your filesystem and network i/o. This is by design, the author of node himself has apologized for it and admitted that nothing can be done now becau

I used to hate aws for how expensive their bandwidth and storage was, until I started actually using it last year. I think their new serverless stack is about to leave a lot of devops out of a job. You can setup a a CI/CD pipeline in

Yawn... Call me when they actually go through their corporate ladder and fire everyone who thought this was a good idea in the first place. If those same managers are in still place, there's no reason for me to ever trust this software

At this point it's nearly becoming unethical not to use a gene drive. Warming climate is spreading more and more diseases via insects. West nile, malaria, zika, chagas, lyme are all very much alive and kicking with no quick effective c
