Okay. We're still just talking about Netflix, mainly because I have referred to the article and to Netflix in every reply, and because I've explicitly stated it in the first and last reply as well. If you would like to interpret i

tl;dr: AWS teams seem to mostly build technology and building blocks, Azure seems to mostly be a continuation of business products and Microsoft-to-Business contracts that happen to be tech-related. It is after all not a "Datacenter em

We're talking about the silly Netflix story here. Not capitalism and/or other companies.

People forget: you must stop machines at a time of your choosing because if you find out it won't start up again it better be at a time where it doesn't cause huge problems to have to fix it.

Inside the article a nice contrast can be found: >> “Things are going to break,” she said. “We have an aging fleet that’s being run harder than it’s ever been run.” >> Also See: Texas Confident Stressed Grid Will Hold Up Amid Su

They are traceable, but generally nobody bothers to actually trace them. On top of that, most of the people who would be charged with the task to do this are somewhat out of touch with how the (digital) world works. I'm curious to see

What do the rules have to do with it? We're talking about violence-centric thinking and making blanket statements that cannot apply to non-uniform societies. If there are some rules that say it's fine to eat poop, does that mean t

Not if 'profitable' is not deemed enough, which is the problem. It's simply never enough (hence the many references to unrealistic infinite growth), so what is most likely to happen is some way to 'restart' the grow

The problem is that a profitable entertainment service used and enjoyed by many is somehow going to "not survive" based on unrealistic models applied by people that are neither consumers or producers of the profitable service itse

Yet somehow in actual tyrannical states it doesn't solve anything, and in states where there are more guns than population it mostly just costs the lives of childen and citizens who were going about their day. Life also doesn't re

Netflix works fine, they make plenty of profit. The problem is the endless growth requirement (be it from IP owners, share owners, or other stakeholders). It's unrealistic and Netflix could just coast along as-is with very few issues.

We never had any useful reviewers. Only on the US version.

A big downside to this on-package combination is the inevitable degradation and destruction of some I/O. Take optics for example, if your SFP transceiver has a bad source or detector, you can replace it and keep going. If your on-packa

It doesn't have anything to do with liking things. Blanket rules that apply to incompatible scenarios are just dumb, and not reasonable in any form. The endless 'defence' for bad rules makes no sense either, it's okay to

The problem is that you can't put ridiculous characters in the real world since the world around them will still be 'normal'. This makes everything else that doesn't really make sense outside of a created world look bonk

Guns at any home don't really have an absolute level of fineness I'd say; it also depends on where the home is, who is in the home, if the person possessing the guns is reasonable and trained etc. If your home is a small apartment

Oh yeah, the interface definitely leaves a lot to be desired. It's almost like it's getting PC104-legacy-ish at this point. On the other hand, the high density interconnects (even the ones way back from when Motorola and Apple sta

Generally, no effective SDLC except for when the vendor builds a half-assed version of SCM into their product. Generally no such thing as Low-code + Git. Most of the systems either don't have the big benefits they claim to have (time s

Yeah the near-term and long-term RISC-V products haven't materialised yet. Software hasn't matured all that much either. I was looking at the iMx8 but like you said, anything with automotive or embedded applications in mass produc

The issue with the AllWinner Sunxi chips is somewhat similar to the VideoCore booter where an internal ROM is required to boot the CPU; this has been open sourced somewhat recently, but we can't really inspect or change it. On the othe

Thun sunxi family of chips is really badly supported by the manufacturers, but the mainlining effort (as documented at https://linux-sunxi.org/Linux_mainlining_effort ) is going pretty well. It's still a bit risky if yo

The i.MX SoCs seem really nice, it's probably one of the few mainstream ones I haven't personally worked with (only wrote software that targeted it while fully remote). Most of the fully open designs seem to be limited to a handfu

JavaFX was about to be revolutionary for over a decade ;-) First it was availability, then it was integration, then it was build tooling and now it's distribution. Most of the Java-for-the-user only exists on Android and niche markets

Mostly because today, a Java application is either a back-end application or a dead-end project. Everything a user touches is either native or web, and you can't get proper UX if you skip steps and try to magically render a useful UI a

Wouldn't it make more sense to just make sure that all universities just pass the same requirements to be a university, and beyond that not add some ranking or other entertainment nonsense in the mix? This whole entertainifying busines
