This has little to do with economics. Age 0-18: You are under the care of society. Age 18-60: You are a productive member of society. Age 60+: You are under the care of society aga…

I use this and it's convenient but the fact that Google can wipe out my entire digital identity on a whim scares me.

> It’s not clear to me _why_ this has happened I always assumed it was a combination of WW II, collapse of the Empire and then a series of terrible governments since the 1960s.

A compelling successor to both Heroku and App Engine is Google Cloud Run. Dead simple to setup, no frills and cheap to run.

Yes but after exceeding ~2 solar masses (Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff limit) the neutron star will undergo further collapse to form a black hole.

A good number of their engine components these days are made of cheap plastic that just disintegrates after slight use.

Love dbeaver. The cloud version is cloudbeaver.io

It's not about which is the best technology. The barrier to entry for Node.js is next to nothing and the size of the ecosystem is incomparable to Elixir. Which means tons of compan…

Also see the brilliant anime Terra Formars. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terra_Formars

It's more of the Portuguese Empire collapsed otherwise they'd still be around till today. FYI, the Arabs in question here were the Omani Sultanate who operated a gigantic slave tra…

I used to work in enterprise. There's nothing I miss more than Oracle's automatic partition management.

In my country geothermal power plants are run by a state corporation. It's definitely not as easy to scale but in an ideal world I would have it over fossil fuels.

I can see this happening. Sucks for everyone who bought in at $18K.

So what is the likely outcome of the fallout of Tether and Bitfinex? I'm guessing the price of Bitcoin will fall drastically?
