I'm pretty sure ASINs are not as unique as the author is making out. I'm pretty sure they are just created when you upload to Amazon.

The answer to any question posed in a title is no. Try it sometime. If you see a title question mentally just say “no”. The reasons for this law of media are manifold but boil down to 1) if there was evidence that the thing would happen the

I'm not sure if you have a point?

As a business owner myself this is total nonsense. I proudly pay my staff well and I don't overwork them. Anything else is a choice and it's a choice that nearly always benefits you not your employees.

If you are going to argue by anecdote at least use a believable anecdote. Amazon have one of the most customer friendly refund policies and always offer a refund or replacement- obviously because they are just pushing it on to their sellers

A cynical person might say that large telecoms company aren’t interested in monopolizing your market and so you are free. I’m astounded by how bad/expensive my internet is in massive cities that should be easy to connect. I live in an

Which is good right? Cause everyone needs to use the restroom and people are complaining about people urinating/defecating in non restroom areas? Nobody is not using the restroom by choice. Places that smell like urine or excrement cle

Great! I’ve driven the I5 so many times and I’m so sick of it. I’d love for a viable alternative and going from downtown LA to San Francisco on a train sounds like a dream.

So yes, you agree with me. They do regulate and influence the real estate market specifically the price of housing. And as in the first point they don’t have any interest in the price dropping. If the only way the price is allowed to change

Are you trying to claim that the government (let's pick the US government) doesn't get involved in regulating the housing market? Do you think they don't attempt to keep the house prices from crashing ? (also known as gettin

Read my shoe example in the other thread, it's the difference between something being an asset and an investment.
226.
by reillyse 4y ago
Right. But let us pretend that the we all decided to treat shoes as an asset class. Everyone (with shoes) is counting on their shoes increasing in value. So the government becomes focused on raising the prices of everyone's shoes. It i

I think you are misunderstanding me. I didn’t say it was an asset. The majority of physical things you purchase are assets. I said it was an “asset class” in the financial use of the term. “ An asset class is a grouping of investments that

People in the comments here seem stuck in the weeds around various laws and tax incentives. The overarching issue is that housing (something everyone needs) is being treated as an asset class. As an asset class people who own it want it to

As someone who grew up on a farm in Ireland there is an embarrassment of archaeological sites. The general philosophy is they are safer in the ground and we’ll excavate them when we get round to it. That said there is a real danger of sites

Yes me too. I started with basic and then up through Microsoft products, swore off them for emacs for years and am now on vs code cause it works so damn well. That in itself says how well it works.

You should be using One Big Server mate :)

by reillyse 4y ago
Ok, so to your points. "It depends" is the correct answer to the question, but the least informative. One Big Server or multiple small servers? It depends. It always depends. There are many workloads where one big server is the pe

by reillyse 4y ago
Nope. Multiple small servers. 1) you need to get over the hump and build in multiple servers into your architecture from the get go (the author says you need two servers minimum), so really we are talking about two big servers. 2) having mu

I have a PhD and so have Dr as my first name on LinkedIn. All the automated messages address me as if Dr was my actual first name, So “hi Dr” or “Dr,…” So it’s a good filter for all the machine created messages, which is a very very high p

This might be my little Irish brain firing off, but why is the picture in the article of Ireland and Britain? To the ignorant it would appear from the picture that Ireland is part of the UK. I can only assume that whoever picked the image d

There are lots of things that could skew this data. What suicide rate seems to be measuring is access to guns. Lots of people in the police or other security forces have access to guns. Often people who have done military service have an is

People have some guns in rural places worldwide but you almost never encounter them. Gun ownership rates drop off fast after the US (I think the 10th highest country is 1/4 of the US rate) and the rates keep dropping from there. Also w

Do people even dig trenches anymore? I assume there is already a services pipe that runs along most city roads that has all of the various utilities in it. Am I wrong?

Hi HN. I saw a different post about end of CI so I thought it was a good time to share something I've been working on. Brisk is a way to run all of your tests from your terminal pre-commit extremely fast. So fast that we can run them o
