To make a fair comparison you’d need to put it so that you’d be checking happy family/friend album photos every day (perhaps several times per day) from different people. Occasional photo album watching (e.g. during Xmas) is a differen

I still can see your comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18557415 (think you meant this one). I believe comments aren't removed here at all. There are some comments which are objectively useless/offendin

Apple’s competition doesn’t provide phones with many years of official software updates. This may be just fine for many people, but if you care about security, features... then it’s not reliable enough.

Personally (but most likely majority of the people) motivation is so much higher when new knowledge can be applied in the short-term, and a pool of ideas like this comes very useful after e.g. reading the basics of a language.

Google offers a one-year deprecation policy for a bunch of services, including AppEngine: https://developers.googleblog.com/2012/04/changes-to-depreca... . One year is not enough for many enterprise customers. On t

While I agree their offering is quite good, I understand why enterprises do not want to invest on it. Some reasons that come to mind: - Much less people with proper platform knowledge (not even talking about certified). - Not much trust on

It’s obvious that additional abstraction layers will add overhead. It’s also assumed that they add liabilities, no matter what you choose. So I’m not sure how your point is really applicable to container tech only.

As a native speaker I have no problems with the name. For those who don’t understand it may sound like “(you) see penis”. But to be honest I didn’t even make the connection when I read it the first time.

If your concern is about manually updating a lot of clusters, then there are many providers (GCP, AWS, DO...) offering managed solutions which most likely will handle the updates for you.

In Spain, which is a quite big country and has almost-free tuition, there are way too many graduates working in low-wage jobs because the national market cannot just offer them qualified positions. Here is one source: https://elp

And in fact, in many of these countries, private (paid) universities have quite bad popularity - it’s where people who can’t pass in the “free” one go, with very few exceptions. I mean, there are so many examples of fully or almost fully co

I’d say the previous title was good since it’s probably what the submitter wanted to show and not the existence of the tool itself. I didn’t even click the link because I knew about it, but if I saw the previous title it’d have piqued my in

The strawman is: >It is selfish, in the workplace to ask a colleague for help who sits an arm's length away? Because I haven’t said that, at all. I’ll bow out myself.

The other person then has to either interrupt everything to help you (so now you’re both distracted for a while) or say no (while maintaining a mental task queue to remember to get back to you later, which is mentally taxing). Overall, it f

I’ve learned to appreciate open offices after a while - I really like having quick access to colleagues (after quickly asking through chat or when they’re obviously available). I believe that a good culture and library-like rules can make i

“Cheap” by finnish standards - means you pay a maximum of 10 € for a 5 km radius trip.

I believe they banned it because they ignored the local laws (and Helsinki isn’t exactly an isolated case of this behaviour from Uber) and were unlicensed. However they’ve recently regained presence in Helsinki since it’s been legalized [1]

Yes it does (internal Vantaa) although I don’t recall if city bikes have arrived there yet (unlike Espoo). For cross-region tickets (Helsinki + Vantaa for instance) you need to pay around 100 € with the app.

As a Helsinki resident (and Whim user) it’s important to point out that while the user base of Whim has grown quite a bit, it’s most likely due to the introductory price that won’t last forever. For 49 € you get public transport, public bik
