    It's not a string either though: in the same way integer addition (almost always) does not make sense, string concatenation (almost always) does not make sense either. The proper t…

    I guess it depends how you think about it. From computational perspective, it's heavyweight. On the other hand, it really optimizes for minimal human effort, on several levels: * G…

    I think we are really torturing language here. I don't want to get into specifics of what constitutes business value, how to value brand and customer satisfaction and so on. I can …

    Voice recognition, translation, OCR, image classification, etc. is done through neural networks mostly nowadays. If https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Translate does not seem l…

    Most of batch workloads are not that latency sensitive. You can send them to the other side of the world as everyone is sleeping there right now.

    I don't understand why you think it's hard to tell your CI/CD pipeline to run itself on a schedule. I find this totally consistent with my tooling (I have CI/CD in place for many d…

    No, in the context of the conversation, it's an argument for a higher valuation of the entity. The value of every corporation primarily reflects expectation of future profits. That…

    Yep, this is exactly it. By the way, even SQL Server can use Kubernetes for HA nowadays.[1] [1] https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/linux/tutorial-sql-serv...

    Inflation, using the usual definition, cannot be 'masked by technology' as technology is one of the things that legitimately determine general price level. Inflation counts and alw…

    As much as I like the described move from "functions" to "containers", solutions like KNative / Cloud Run are still inherently more hackable than solutions like Fargate. It's good …

    Does this actually make a diffence, from game-theoretical perspective? It seems to me that if substantial amount of investors start to bias in a certain direction, it will only cre…
