I think having some money saved does not make one petite bourgeois as I say in the comment above I think people who trade their time for money are working class. If you’ve saved en…

He didn’t lay out a specific timeline though. So who is to say if this might come to pass? Also, perhaps his work and the development of more left leaning politics and policies act…

Are the working class not the majority of society? 1% of the population of most western countries are farmers. 1% are extremely rich and 98% are the rest of us.

Give examples of things he got dead wrong?

Knowledge in itself is good. We don’t need everything to have a direct commercial application. In fact most discoveries by their nature do not have directly applicable commercial a…

If I or somebody else was the victim of a crime I would 100% support using every available source of information to solve that crime. I think we need adequate controls sure, but mo…

IANAL... The reason you can get a huge settlement in the talc case but not in this case is because people are purchasing the talc and so it is a product liability issue. In the res…

No you can’t. They don’t work from your local development env and also work in your CI env. Mostly Brisk was designed to run your complete test suite on every codes save (ie local …

I chatted to Nelson when I was designing brisk ( https://github.com/brisktest/brisk ) and his insight informed the development of it. Among other things, Brisk allows you to run te…

Decaf is simple to pick out by a person who is competent at tasting coffee. As easy as your red/white wine visual test. People in general are very bad at tasting and especially thi…

The same decaf coffee is more expensive. The producers decaffeinate their lesser coffees. But you've hit on why the "sugar-cane method" i.e. the solvent based approach produces bet…

Most people render the html on the server side and then you can just cache it wholesale. You could cache the page itself or even the article itself (I'm not talking about browser c…

It's such a small amount of money per person that it is hard to see what effects one would expect. I think for the majority of people reading hacker news $1000 per month would be b…

Well it will definitely help with caching. You only need to update the article every year or so.

OP here, happy to answer any questions about Brisk or the process of giving away all of our code :)

Brisk is a complete CI system that runs your test suite in seconds. The main speedup over standard CI systems (think CircleCI or Github Actions) is that we maintain your test envir…
