Their event actually "started" around midnight on Sunday with a midnight madness event or something. I think that's when the announcement was made. My wife works in AWS Elemental and stayed up to watch the announcement.

Yeah, I agree, especially about the mortality rate. Anecdotally, every grandfather-aged person I know has 4+ children, but almost all father-aged ones have 2 or less (only 2 exceptions, of which 1 had twins). Thanks for the other informatio

As someone that detests Congress, I don't really see why naming it after Indira Gandhi is that bad. Esp considering she is unlikely to stand in an election again... I also don't see why not being the first state to do it is bad; s

Oh my god, I'm worried about India's population starting to decrease now .... More seriously, is there a way to look before 1960? I want to look from 1930 or so, I think India's population really exploded post-Independence.

You assume "the" platform. Often times, "a" platform is available, but pulling to a non-scheduled one would be disastrous.

I don't have a problem believing that Gitlab could be faster for an org's stack, at all. I do have a problem with you implying Jenkins is not-modern by saying "depends on your definition of modern". Speed is only one fac

Personally, even without looking at course content, I wouldn't do an online MS in IT course if it costs 30k. That's getting close to the cost of a decent in-campus program. Any reason you cannot do the gatech one?

I dont agree that choosing a photo of him is in bad taste. What I disagree with is choosing a House of Cards reference though; he played a memorable (IMO) tyrant boss in Horrible Bosses.
