Back in 2018 it was estimated that bitcoin network itself used more energy than Switzerland. In addition to the energy this also translates to global warming. Anyway you mentioned "If someone can show me a non-blockchain design for dec

Ah, I think I understand, because of the home + the money I already put in in it? Why does that have to be decentralized? I already can make a loan against a mortgage and to do it I don't need to use as much of energy to power Switzerl

I don't know what over-collateralised loans are to suggest a solution, but I'm trusting you. I agree that there are cases where blockchain don't have alternatives. Those are where you want a decentralized ledger and you can&#

Hmm... ECS is for running docker containers. If they don't work the same on local computer than on ECS perhaps docker failed to deliver what promised? BTW: I absolutely hate debugging in AWS, it's such a nightmare, docker was the

I wasn't talking about mobile, although given that article is about mobile, my bad I didn't clarify. I meant about wired Internet access. Running 10 wires to your house to have access to 10 ISPs is expensive and it's also a n

The lack of competition is the actual reason. When Google was entering markets with their Internet service suddenly incumbents got capacity to provide competitive speed at slightly lower price. Essentially causing Google to give up with tha

Not in a medical field, but my understanding is that virus on its own is harmless (just a combination of RNA, proteins and fat), it needs cells to replicate. So if it can't infect them it won't produce copies and won't spread

FastAPI is database agnostic, although tutorials talk about using SQLAlchemy (probably because it's most popular). I am using asyncpg[1] (much more performant and provides close mapping to PostgreSQL, making it much easier to use its a

The ruling was because around 2002-2003[1] Internet was reclassified as Title I (Information Services). Since then ISPs started doing shenanigans, like throttling and in some cases outright blocking (first major attack was VoIP). Each time,

It's not ISPs that are paying it (except for brib... I mean lobbying). This is actually worse, if you're a Californian you're paying for both sides of the argument.

I think you're confused. The old law that we had that already forbade prioritization was the Title II, and that's what Wheeler classified Internet as. Pai basically reversed that decision, so it was a step backward. Wheeler when h
