This isn't connect to just the scarcity of the land. People can live without bitcoin and the Mona Lisa, but you can't live without land. If you want to take this to the extreme imagine if somebody owns the whole country. Housing is a human right.

The point is you as a business don't have to use aws, there are alternatives out there.

For consumers it is irrelevant because they aren't buying "aws" directly.

With Enterprise I mean B2B/Consulting.

What is the heat death of the universe?

I would suggest not to comment without reading the article. This way you would avoid such unpleasantries.

He's arguing from his opinions and experiences. Say he is biased, is true but irrelevant. (Water is wet)

Is MongoDB not open-source?

I'm sorry but you are spreading misinformation. The Swiss are not anti-vax in general and they are not against the Covid vaccine. Switzerland is 63.7% vaccinated.

In any case not getting the vaccine doesn't make someone uneducated. Switzerland has some of the best schools and universities in the world. In 2018, 44% of 25-64 year-olds had completed a tertiary qualification in Switzerland, compared to 39% on average across OECD countries. [1]

On the point of arresting people planning to protest, many protest around the world were fueled by the use of social media/messaging apps. So in that case its not obvious that it has a negative effect on democracy.

You misunderstood the question. He is asking why are they honoring his title as Knight in Switzerland, when noble titles are usually abolished in republics.

A good example of this can be seen in the Constitution of the US. "No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State."

How much do you stand to make?

Because he's also a Mathematician in the Olympics, similar to (but not as successful) as Mrs. Kiesenhofer. We like when nerds are not completely 1 dimensional.

The fact that she's a woman doesn't make this interesting. (Woman winning women's cycling wouldn't be much news.) The reason this is interesting is because she's a Mathematician and an amateur.

Getting abused by pimps vs protecting their mother country - I know which one I'd like my children to pick.

Choosing the extreme version of one and the benign version of the other seems pretty handy.

Why would anybody in this hypothetical thread discuss the politics of owning/renting, when that doesn't bring you closer to any solution?

I find this to be completely untrue. Anecdotally, my friends from South Sudan, who aren't white, tell me that the unsafest neighborhoods in my country are better than the safest in theirs.

This is the same sentiment that I get from most non-white foreigners.
