I gave scaleway a try last year during one of their promos, and I recall they immediately double-charged my CC. Not the best first impression, and to me it was the last one as well.

You really aren't. That assertion is like commenting that elementary arithmetics is discrete signal analysis because 1+1=2, which happens to match the amplitude of a resonance of a normalized vibration mode. It isn't. It's a

You should be more careful and precise in your attempts to describe these things. Inverting the phase of a signal is entirely different than inverting the signal. Time-reversed signals are not the same as phase-reversed signals.

Why, think about it. Covid deaths are practically concentrated on age groups over 65 years old. People dying from other causes aggregate multiple causes which, due to the aggregation, are spread out over the whole age range. Due to the pyra
