Like you I don't have any valid use case right now, but I'm interested in Service Fabric[1] though. It looks like Amazon Lambda, it screams vendor lock-in but much less than Lambda, as it seems easier to code and import dlls [1]

No the one you asked either, but I usually email me@onenote.com [1] from my Gmail account with the URL in the subject, and it saves the page as content AND as a long picture. It would probably not work here since it would require to be logg

You're probably referring to the Ecole Polytechnique. Indeed newly graduates are supposed to work as a civil servant or pay the "pantoufle", which according to [1] is roughly 45000€, and as of last May when the article was wr

Interesting! Maybe the plan is to launch drones directly from the flying 767 the same way military planes drop vehicles!

I feel that you could replace "Canada" with a lot of other countries here. Canada is even more impacted due to its geographical proximity and the agreements between the US and Canada, but what you said rings true for a lot of Euro

Sorry for the long reply, no worries I don't take it as a critic. It's actually more like what amagumori said: the dichotomy is "everyone in the checkout line can see what i'm buying" vs. "all people who know

English seems more appropriate than French in some domains, but when it comes to social communication, I prefer French. The lack of masculine/feminine, and the "you" that either represent one or multiple persons[1] makes comm

Do you have other options to get in? I'm glad this article shows legitimate uses of the H-1B like you. I made the math, if you don't have an advanced degree from the US, then the chance to get the H-1B is around 30%. With the adva
