No, I don't want to argue, I would like to understand how can anyone think this kind of idea can be implemented in the real world. I just don't see a way. BTW I was never talking about evasion. No need for that. The wealthy people

Reporting is nice but doesn't change anything about the problem. OK so the US knows you are a beneficiary of a trust fund in Switzerland - what can they do about it? It's not you, so they can't tax the wealth. They can tax th

Yes, sure - but Monaco, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Liechtenstein etc is definitely not going to adopt the rules just because US did. They will do the exact opposite - triple down, take this new enormous opportunity and develop hundreds of new

This is why trust funds exist.

AWS/Azure/GCP is suggested because it's easier to hire someone who can maintain it after the founders burn out or exit, and most importantly because the VCs have access to loads of free credits that can get you through the fi

You definitely need to. I was bitten by stuff like the compiler/optimizer deciding to do it differently after the unrelated change, resulting in significant performance degradation and whole service outage. There was a bug in our code

by throwaway11460 2y ago
I don't think that's true, careful engineers like microservices/SOA because deploying a small fix doesn't necessitate testing and deploying everything else too, service outage is limited, and rollbacks easier. Careful en

It was called service oriented architecture before microservices, and the concept itself is way older in the mainframe world; not sure if it actually had a name because it was simply the way it needs to be done . Unix is basically microser

Tesla promised to make your own car a robotaxi, which is very different from stringently controlled Waymo cars. Tesla has to deal with customers doing stupid shit with their cars.

Well either way, with all the articles about Mercedes having the first Lwhatever self driving system, you would think it's actually better than the FSD.

Funny, in my city the 90s transition from communism to free market economy was accompanied by a big reduction of homelessness, drug addiction and untreated mental illness.

Don't worry, it's very typical. Just the timescales are literally astronomical.

Hmm... I know we're on a startup site, but that's really only a very small part of the business world. Microservice architecture/SOA as we used to call it is successfuly employed at many more traditional small, middle and lar

If the capital needs returns, how come they don't need to keep it KISS? Seems like they wouldn't only if it helped them get the returns.

From my years of experience with the industry, ideas like microservices were used way before zero interest rates, and will continue to be used, because they solve actual real problems many people have. Not saying it's always the best a

Google says zero interest rate policy. No idea how is it related to software architecture though. Maybe it's one of those people who think that software engineers like to give themselves more work and headache just because, and can&#x2

What does it have to do with interest rate? I have seen microservices being used to decouple release management and deployment. To untie organizational dependencies. To separate cyber/dependency supply chain attack surface area. To reu

That oil is sold unprocessed and won't be powering anything unless it goes through a fairly expensive processing and logistics chain. Iran is also extremely inefficient and unproductive - it's a state after all. Similarly, African

If the nuclear reactor was the only thing that needs water, yeah. But if we're at the point of installing a nuclear reactor on Mars, I guess we would also be actively mining and processing water in large quantities.

I hate everything related to marketing, especially and very much the modern form of influencer marketing that's all about interacting with people on social media, posting on profiles, posting comments, replying to them, sending message

In my case I use Postgraphile. If you select a column that you can't access, you get an error - I don't see a problem there. PostgREST doesn't support column selection?

I don't expect you to meddle in our politics, indeed.

So you have different queries per access level/role? Like userProducts, managerProducts, supportProducts, adminProducts...?

How do you wash your clothes and dishes with wet wipes? Also you need to clean your home - you don't want to get sick in a catastrophe scenario.

It's an internal US issue that I can't do anything and doesn't affect me - even if I cared, there's not much I could do, and I don't think it's something I should meddle in. I am all for cooperation in solving

Every non-Chinese (and many Chinese, too) is on the receiving end of the New Chinese Man crazies. The Christian crazies are mostly isolationists - I am not in the US so I don't care much.

The batshit insane Christian nationalists are still way less batshit insane than the New Chinese Man racists.
