Well, he has well researched high quality content with no fluff. Totally deserves it.

Yea, I get your joke, but if you're writing for example an article, this is an excellent approach for a messy first draft that you can refine and clean up later..

Write to think is a little slow... Unless you can type pretty fast, in which case it's good to clear your mind...

Talking to think is even better... Alone, with a Bluetooth headset, talk to yourself -- better if the app can skip silence --- you can now listen back and look back at your own thoughts from a detached 3rd person perspective.

I recently experimented with Google speech to text on goolge docs to chalk out some content that I went back and refined later, so that could be a happy compromise.

Religion is a human need - maybe not an obvious animalistic one but because it crops up with every civilization, I think it isn't something on the outside, it's something within us.

Wheather you think it's a means of social control, a way to create distinct in-vs out group, a means to cope with death or whatever you attributes you give to it..

Just because you can rationalise it doesn't mean it goes away.. just like you can't suppress base biological urges by "thinking them away", atleast not in the long term.

Religion just comes back up in other places in forms that don't even look like the original thing but shows all the signs of it.

'dont wish upon others that Wich you yourself cannot endure'

There are clear perimeters set in industrial settings when robots are in operation for this precise reason.

I'm sure the devs could have used much lower force values when dealing with the prices or put logic in place where if a hand is on the board the robot disengages. Hindsight is 20/20..

Looked horrific could barely watch for a few seconds.

Cassandra is horribly inflexible.. you cannot use where conditions in any fields other than the PK (assuming you're not going to use ALLOW FILTERING for all your queries) and if your data isn't going to grow beyond baby size where allow filtering is okay, then you probably don't need a whole distributed java app running. Just do sqlite or newer local file storage dbs etc.

SQL has earned its place due to the expressiveness and flexibility .. you may hold your opinions but you'll hardly find anyone who would take 'SQL is overrated' seriously.

That's a different take on task management apps, using directed graphs for tasks looks like a cool concept tbh.

Traditional project management implies this type of a graph relationship(task depends on/critical path).

UI on phone (android) breaks or is unusable -- will probably have a look at it on desktop later.

Wasn't able to zoom-in/out on the graph, should probably add the feature if it isn't there already.

All the best!

Corporations are people though. Can you go through the same process without mentioning people's names and only mention a company name?

International law and human rights are for : - poor/light weight countries - adversaries and competition

For the self and allies there is only: - Rule of law only until it comes in the way of Self interest -- in contention, self interest always trumps.

With this rule-set a lot of things make sense.

My running theory is that US does these endless wars for this reason.

Tax payer money -> defense companies -> 'political contributions'

This is why it's probably fine to not win wars because the war is not being fought to be won.

Correct, with exception of arms trade, which finds a way to generate conflict to keep the demand going.

Like the strategy of asking for help on Linux forums. 'dont ask for help, nobody will help you. Just claim what you're trying to achieve is impossible to do in Linux and you'll get lots of answers'

You can stockup for 6 months fairly easily and by then you know the direction things are going. Mark dates on your supplies and use + reload them regularly. You will always have a 6 months buffer from when shit hits the fan.

It can have a twisted meaning that could imply a silenced friend will never betray you.. :)

I was joking, but, thanks for taking the time. Seems interesting, will go through the project.

Would love to see some RFP of web3. Do you have links to the protocol spec?

The world is not changing and the next US invasion will also have zero consequences and lot of justification to placate the sense of morality of the population.

What does 'call his bluff' translate to in this context? Not take the threat of a nuclear war seriously and engage with Russia militarily anyways as-if the threat didn't exist?

I meant to say 'hypersonic' nuclear icmbs

'Disarming the influence of a bad actor'

Russia is going nowhere. They are not NK. Consequences are never one sided, in a conflict, the other side gets a vote too.

Sir, this is a HN. Reddit is in the next tab. ;)

Hitler didn't have nukes and super-sonic missiles -- you cant do to Russia what you would want to do to Hitler.. at least not without a very heavy price..

If the US citizens can't improve their own govt and get them to stop neverending wars, I think it's a tall order to expect citizens in a dictatorship to do it. Point isn't US bad -- point is, no easy way to affect change other than revolution which too ends up with bigger tyrants..

There was a huge company in china I think, taking loans by using gold bars as collateral.. for years, turned out they weren't gold

Linode was very limited in what you could do, from what I remember. They had good service and documentation and I just like it now cause, nostalgia.

AWS is extremely flexible and very very feature rich compared to linode. At that point, AWS was considered about 10 years ahead of competition.

Second that, fond memories of using their service ages ago.

First VMs I had was from them. They had very good documentation and everything was simple.

Then I was introduced to 'wall of text' as a service, AWS, and never looked back.

You have to actively engage and be focused or you'll get lost..

You have to actively like content you like and follow people you want to see more of. Have a motive and plan of what type of content you want to consume and you get that kind of stuff.. I like and followed people who are nearby and visit beautiful places close by... This is like 80% of my feed and I like it...

For the longest time I didn't download it cause of its reputation. It's pretty good, no cruft of YouTube. 'youre watching this, that.. like subscribe.. word from of sponsers' none of that nonsense - pure content. Both FB and YouTube are copying the features button for button. IMO, Not bad
