I am generally in approval of CA government's handling in this pandemic, however, I don't think there is value in waiting any longer for reopening to start. Why? To me it is obvious that the pandemic won't stopping from sprea

> Even when compared with other cloud providers, AWS is super expensive. Well this is not true. I don't think Azure is much cheaper in that regard. In reality, the big clouds are watching each other very closely. Do you have data ot

AWS is so much more than just hardware It is called service for a reason.

Yep. React went from React.createClass -> class xxx extends Component -> Hooks. But I don't think that means...change? The fundamental concept of react, that UI is a derivative from the state, stays the same. Class based or Hook

DBs, IMO, are neither library or frameworks. They have their own DSL after all, which is close to programming languages. Programming languages are hard to categorize as either library or framework. They are libraries with full set of contro

React by itself is just a templating language, yeah I got it. But i think for most devs out there, like 99% (yeah I made this up) of them, React is actually React + React-dom, the latter per the account of the official team is like a runtim

I think the key difference is that frameworks usually hijack your control flow, while library are not. But is framework necessarily bad or inferior to library? I would like to present React as an example. React heavily regulates the control

This seems like a textbook burn-out case. What you need is detachment. Real world is ... what it is. Good intention is not enough for good things to happen. Our system seems to be programmed in a way, that it can go worse it will, until it

Lest not Google. I can't think of how Google can benefit itself from the COVID situation

I would say probably. It is like electricity or water. Yes unnecessary spending will be curbed, but surge in other fronts from the system will compensate that. Overall, it is hard to imagine that Cloud business will not be hurt, but it will

what is context free language anyway? context free grammar had a clear definition in parsing, not sure i understand how that can be extended to languages.

The information article says they are going to layoff 800 tech staff from 3,800 in total.

by tanilama 6y ago
The unblocked version says 800 out of 3800 engineers will be slashed. That is pretty uniform and brutal TBH.

But still not human-level performance.

I am curious, why stopped at a one time 1,200 dollar check? If the Congress had already ordered to print money, they surely can do more than that and for longer. Instead they delegated to existing programs for the rest, which aren't op

Russia is objectively no longer a superpower but a shell of its past self. US after Cold War and before 2008 will be remembered as a very special country by history. China or the post great recession US can only imagine that power and influ

All you said might be true 5 years ago. But many no longer holds. China is no longer an export dependent economy, and moving manufacturing away from it, is hard. The belief that manufacturing is about labor is simply false. Dalio is pretty

> The 200 participants generally appeared healthy, but about half told the doctors they had had at least one symptom of COVID-19 in the past four weeks. The total sample size is small and this doesn't seem random enough?

Death rate higher could be due to an overwhelmed health care system, so it is not linear. Once that threshold is hit, it will probably edge close to rate of severe cases among the patients.

What you are saying is to provide an explanation why WeChat-like apps didn't and probably are not going to happen outside of China, but it still means there is NO WeChat alternatives outside China. The reason is not that important howe

Surprised to see no Payments mentioned at all, which makes the post makes very little sense. WeChat is also, and by large, a financial service. Payment and transfer is happening all the time on this platform, and to replace that is a magnit

Then I would say shutting down is court's intention. Amazon doesn't do anything wrong here. If it can't improve in a month, surely it can't improve in 24 hours.

24 hour deadline is a middle finger by itself. Mission impossible really. So court had set them up to break the law.
