The curve that we must flatten is the admissions to the ICU as that's the main bottleneck if we want to limit the number of deaths. And 2 months is probably not back to normal (international travel, etc). China is still fearing a secon

GitHub’s import feature worked well for me. You’re obviously going to lose the wiki, issues etc. But at least you’ll keep your repo history, branches, ...

His argument seems to be that nobody is willing to pay for those massive investments. It’s not backed up by many facts in his article so I don’t know how true it is.

I was browsing for bird feed recently on Amazon DE and FR sold by Amazon themselves as I mostly don’t trust third parties. Some reviewers said they received just a transparent plastic bag with different seeds in it. All those reviews were f

90% of affiliates are very small players that don't have any bargaining power. In most modern platforms, all the referrers are tracked. I'm pretty sure that big players do complain and they'll get a "first cookie" o

Loads of young people wouldn't care about Star Wars, Marvel, ... if they didn't release high budget movies regularly. How many kids under 20 care about the biggest franchises from the 80s like Indiana Jones, Beverly Hills Cop, Bac

They probably don't care or see it as a way to keep newspapers in business. I'm running an adtech platform for newspapers (I do price comparison and I believe that I add value to the product review articles) and newspapers need to

If you're looking for cheap transactions, Degiro (EU based) or InteractiveBrokers (US based) are probably the best options. With Degiro you can get 20€ of free commission when you sign up with a referral

You could argue that at one point French used to be the international language but lost its dominance over time so English might lose it too in the future. However I don’t think Esperanto has a shot at becoming a major language.

Doesn’t it only cover fuel that is already on board when the plane lands ? And the Chicago Convention seems to have been revised 8 times already (according to Wikipedia) so it’s not set in stone.
