I think that's only true when the start up costs are relatively low, right? The airline industry also has a small number of very large players, but I don't know if we should also consider it ripe for disruption

download.docker.com appears to be down for linux?

This breaks updating repositories on ubuntu if you have the docker repository added. Can cause some issues for server configuration

it should be back up again

whoops, looks like it had some issues with traffic, it's back up now!

The data is just being relayed through my server to a websocket. Nothing is stored, but I'm planning to post the source so people can see that clearly and run their own instance if they want.

What's going on with google lately? First the google cloud outage earlier this month and now this? I wonder if there's some sort of systemic problem they're dealing with

This reminds me of one of the first conversations I had with my manager when I started my current job as a software engineer.

I used to work at a large financial company who had an intensely rigorous approach to verifying it's software in both manual and automated ways, as well as a much more careful approach to writing code to begin with.

When I started here (a much smaller startup delivering marketing software for small business clients), I brought up that I was concerned about going to somewhere with a less comprehensive testing pipeline in place, to which I was told:

"It's not particularly important to be able to find bugs before they're released, it's more important to optimize the deployment speed so that we can release the fixes quickly"

Sounded crazy to me at the time, but I later realized it's really all about what your industry is optimizing for, and what would cost you more money.

> This is important because most players of both genders use neutral-looking names. The study doesn't account for this.

Is this true broadly? I'd be curious to know if there's any data on that besides for anecdotal evidence.

also, a "neutral-looking" name can be really subjective, I would guess that there's a lot of player names that use adjectives that might be inadvertently related to a particular gender based on the cultural context.

I'd be curious to know what the names are in this case.

I think his music has gotten much more accessible and less obscure over time. I think The Impossible Kid (his most recent album) is a much better point of reference for what's interesting about his work, and it deals with topics in ways that are easier to understand and relate to, but equally as interesting and well considered (See: Lotta Years -> reflections on getting older, Blood Sandwich -> Looking back on some family moments, Kirby -> Heartfelt and hilarious ode to his cat)

Anyone have any idea why this can't be used in New York?
