It's false to assume that only rich people get the vaccine when markets regulate. There's economies of scale that will help lowering production cost. Edit: Also, let's not kid ourselves here. Anyone that is a billionaire can

From your choice of words one can see that you judge pharma concerns for "generating massive profits" by "taking the world hostage". But nobody has taken anyone for hostage. You're speculating. And it's a gigan

What a ridiculous frame from Tagesschau and whoever is syndicating this news too. As a German, I'd have happily paid 50€ or 100x more to receive a vaccination as soon as possible. And then as a country, I'd be happy to pay that pr

I've started using ESM in a static website builder too [1]. It works, kinda. Problems that I encountered: To get `__dirname`, you have to do an awkward workaround using path and url [3]. For npm modules that implement a path e.g. `@lib

Funny how the dinosaurs in this thread are arguing whether a < T+2 settlement is possible as fiat transactions are not atomic. In forth semester of computer science, I toyed around with Bitcoin (2014?). A client had asked me to build a c

I like the article here as it makes a powerful argument about open source. FOSS is eating the software world. In Social Architecture, Peter Hintjens (ZeroMQ) has another way of putting it. Paraphrased he says that: Open sourcing a particula
