I think you might have skipped over the 10,000+ years of strict feudalism, a shrouded theocracy pushing their century-spanning agendas, aristocracy through landed gentry, and a dru…

Not known for deep understanding of high technology? The Catholic Church was behind the scientific discovery of The Big Bang through the Catholic priest (and astrophysicist) Lamaît…

Visually impaired people use smartphones too. If the app isn't supporting the accessibility features of the platform, it should still be held liable under the ADA. (Unfortunately i…

If the Executive Branch doesn't care about the Constitution and inconvenient laws when directing the law enforcement agencies under its control, Congress doesn't hold the executive…

Day by day it feels less and less like regular data modeling and more like a debate with Jordan Peterson where you argue for ten hours what a "name" is. Eventually you end up havin…

You've certainly demonstrated something, though likely not what you intended.

Excluding conversations about MongoDB compatibility, PG16 added bidirectional replication for multiple writers and there are Postgres-compatible options out there for a distributed…

Yes, of course, nothing is 100%. But vaccines reduce both the severity and duration of illness, thereby reducing the risk and severity of brain damage. And don't get me started on …

Exactly, as seen with Threlte as a counterpoint. https://threlte.xyz/

And JSX is not needed either, as seen with Threlte. https://threlte.xyz/ When all you know is React, everything gets viewed through that limited lens.

His supporters wouldn't accept the results even if that came to pass. Remember, these are folks who honestly believe to this day that US tariffs are paid by other countries. You ca…

Schrödinger's antivaxer: Did mass brain damage lead to avoiding vaccines or did avoiding vaccines lead to the mass brain damage?

> I don't see how one can possibly do that analysis. Classic argument from ignorance fallacy. Because YOU cannot see how it could be done, no one has ever figured out how it could …

Not only was a design ready to be built, it was built. Went online 39 years ago. Produced 1.2GWe at peak. Not only produced power on its own but reprocessed spent fuel from other n…

Okay, I stand corrected. Now my question to you is how are you generating all these terabytes over the internet? And would data transfer costs really be a significant portion of yo…

Defined good code TO YOU. You've failed to recognize there is no objective and universally recognized metric for good code within our industry. The closest thing we have to it is n…

Nice straw man you've constructed and burnt down. Those are NOT the safety arguments used within the industry. For example in a molten salt reactor, the fuel is already melted! If …

> And mis-estimating the environmental risks is exactly what went wrong with Fukushima. It took a massive earthquake and tsunami to cause this, and the number of deaths/injuries du…

You still haven't cited where you got $90/TB from.

Increasing the heat past a certain threshold reduces the nuclear reactivity. Read up on "passive safety". Teller may have warned about this in 1967, but nuclear technology hasn't b…

Since PV needs batteries to be grid-useful (duck curve and all that), it's perfectly reasonable to have both. And no, hydrogen as the storage system doesn't make batteries redundan…

That's an indictment of ORMs more than an evaluation of database options.

> When I say "it doesn't work" I mean that it doesn't allow you to write good code But you skipped over how you are defining, "good code"? Without that part, "doesn't allow" cannot…

Why should I defend Rust? You haven't even defined "good code", which has eluded the best minds in the field for as long as the field has existed. You are not a serious person.
