Nobody is alluding that it _must_ be a safe-haven w.r.t. inflation; just that it's less sketchy than USD. However, I personally wouldn't put my money there, because there exist cryptocurrencies with much stronger fundamentals. XMR

I don't want to turn off the camera in the video calls; I wish to have normal audio-only calls like in any other app like Whatsapp where there's a "Phone" button that starts a call.

I'm a big fan of Matrix, but I'm embarrassed to recommend it to my friends until Element X supports audio calls... It's been months since the leading-edge release, and I don't know what to think: there's Element Cal

True. Although to be fair, I think you're a bit naive to assume that this is a trend, if anything. IMO there's no escaping Ownership issues: if your culture is to "move fast break things", it would be inevitable. The own

What can I say, use a shitty schema—win shitty prizes. This is why we never allow coders to touch the schema: you _will_ screw it up given the tiniest chance. Suddenly, my data model has to be aware of "all such cases." Thank you

You can express it in SQL; you would need to create a table with "the contents of file Y" from S3, or use something like PostgreSQL foreign data wrappers to that effect: we're using pg_analytics[1] to query CSV/Parquet d

NAT deployment here is only tangential to the real differentiator: the firewall. I mean, you can make a case that NAT is a poor man's firewall but you should know that it's not a substitute for a security model. Zero trust is now

No, not at all it's not! The most beautiful thing about the Faustian is that it's very much applicable. You know what they say: the virtual is just as important as the real, if not more important. Like any device in language, th

Sure, it's not so much "nuance" as being read into the Western literary tradition. We should hate to be controversial. So, bargaining for money as it's attainable in principle, doesn't constitute a Faustian: you can

Evidently not; if only to unsatisfactory effect! Faust is one of these stories that you don't just "read" once, but revisit rather—at many different moments in one's life. Better yet there's a pragmatic aspect to it

You, too, don't appear to understand what the Faustian is about specifically. Guys, you should read up on something other than Wikipedia, & not embarrass yourself with dimwit attempts at allegory. Allow me to suggest Faust by Goeth

What does it have to do with Faust? Israel is not a superhuman thing of any kind, and it doesn't possess superhuman knowledge.

I would argue the opposite; LLM technology is the first viable means to computing "language games" as such, and quite in line with the late W. theory.
