I find it weird many people are just realizing this. I've had this conversation with regards to talking about what should happen if a couple of bad earth quakes, not even "the big one", were to occur.

But on the other hand, maybe I hang around too many tech people to not empathically understand the other point of view.


We've seen big outages already but nothing that lasts too long. If an outage became prolonged enough, people would find solutions. We don't know what this massive outage would even look like, so whatever preparation you do, it might still break.

Also there are some outages that affect real life like airlines, but tech news overstates some like Facebook. It turns out that FB and IG can be totally broken for a whole day, the world will keep spinning, and they won't even lose users.


I think many (most?) non tech people don't even know that Amazon is first and foremost a cloud provider (and one of the biggest at that, if not the biggest) and that its market thing is almost a side activity at this point.


US east is pretty geologically stable I think.


I think the word you are looking for is passionate.


That's rad yo!


Need ethos, logos and pathos. Not just the logos.


The main takeaway for me was: do not interrupt AI while it's giving exposition. No matter how trivial it may seem. It will throw it off-kilter.


Maybe stupid question here. And forgive my ignorance.

But does yarn or deno suffer from the same issues? That is do they get their packages from npm repositories? I've never used these.


Yes.


Yep you can drag a file onto the doc on an app icon to have the app in question open the file (assuming it was meant to run that file).

I gotta say, I'm not a Windows user anymore, but it would drive me nuts if I couldn't do that.

Finder (the MacOS version of File Explorer on Windows) is an app you commonly interact with every day for several minutes. If it doesn't work well that's hours of your life you spend fighting the system instead of getting things done.

Those are the kinds of things that made me move away from Windows 10 years ago.


You should checkout a YouTube channel called the Math Sorcerer. It's exactly what you are requesting. Some guy, who's passionate about math, who reviews textbooks and breaks down why you should be reading them.


Lateral move. shrugs

I'd been more excited if they brought back the 3.5 mm audio jack.


Some people might not like WordPress' templating system. Last I looked at it, admittedly 5 years ago, it was kind of annoying. I had to use Advanced Custom Fields to build weird things content types but the general blogging engine still seemed pretty good.
