    It can be the case that everyone in “a fight” is wrong.

    That’s not good either. It’s the same with poultry, many types of fruit, etc. This just makes the case further.

    They don't have a monopoly on any meaningful product category. By that reasoning I could have a monopoly on peanuts and it’s alright because consumers can choose from hundreds of o…

    Because I was responding to this comment you had made: So what's your solution when you have a wholly private service that will never have a public v4 address, nor a publicly routa…

    The M-series are ARM chips based on the A series from the iPhones. Therefore Apple had ten years of chip design (plus the prior decades of ARM history) to rely on. The GPUs and mod…

    A lot of these are visual-heavy tests that often require first person sight to confirm results. Considering GLM isn’t multimodal, that might explain why it did better on the calcul…

    Wait…what? You have a fully internal service and you dont have an internal DNS server? I guess those exist in theory, but not in practice. :) If you have a heavy enough tech stack …

    Split brain =/= done right. This introduces all sorts of aberrant behavior. Most notably that clients will get different responses depending on their query and route that you now h…

    There needs to be a distinction - because people are making an honest conflation - between distributed computing and cloud computing. The list in the article applies to both, but t…

    Yeah it’s a sad state. But it’s also not worth putting oneself in harm’s way. Report it to the state authorities (not all of them are crooked). Or try another jurisdiction, like th…
