   1. If it scales worldwide. There's a decent chance that considering current global geopolitics, China will never allow them in, India and the EU will probably do the same or favor local competitors, Africa/Latin America will proba

   I think OP is talking about the current administration.

   That new technology could be Zig or Rust, if that's the spiel. Or it could be Ada, old and boring but generally safe. New for the sake of new is vanity.

   Code production is not code distribution nor code advertisement, nor code marketing in general, etc.

   That part isn't literal. It's meant to be: "find the outlier in this sea of hex-coded bytes".

   OP is automatically selecting similar colors across the spectrum. C0 is just very far from the rest so the color is very different to the other bytes.

   Everything in nature is colored. Our eyes are worse than dinosaur eyes but they can still distinguish millions of colors. We might as well use 5-10-20 for highlights.

   Yeah, but is the internal tool simpler? I'd be surprised.

    Google uses Kubernetes' grandpa, called Borg, for everything. But to quote someone: "you are not Google".

    For a fraction of the cost of developing self-driving cars we could have self-driving trains/trams/subways and most likely minibuses as part of public transportation networks. And self-driving minibuses would basically provide 95%

    Yeah, but one is free and the other one might make you a billionaire. If you think about it, about 30% of the biggest businesses out there are based on this exact business idea. IRC - Slack, XMPP & co - the many proprietary messengers o

    In Europe for sure they're also sold in 1g dosing. I think the packages don't contain lots of pills, though. Definitely not US style buckets of pills.

    Look, there is no way corporations would lie for their own interest. Especially when they spent tens of billions to develop something. It's not like they sold us leaded gasoline or "healthy tobacco" for decades.

    Sound levels fall off with distance squared. Also, if you think people can scream constantly, you're sorely mistaken. Ever heard of hoarse voices? Humans can't sustain screaming over long periods of time. Large groups of people ca

    There are studies about it[1]. Spend 5 minutes researching instead of being a cranky techbro. A <single> car at 40kmph, and there are a ton more cars on the road than trucks or trains or whatever, already drowns out the average human

    We must live in different worlds. Even for professionals building high quality apps is hard. It's easier with AI, but it's still quite hard. And it was definitely harder without AI.

    Yes, we can do that by banning leisure cars trips from all dense areas. What's that you say? Drivers are a major and rich political force and they will block such decisions?

    Use your favorite chatbot to find out how much noise cars make, at different speeds. And they make that noise constantly. I don't know where you live but people can't scream constantly unless you live in some sort of bazaar.
