It's quite disingenious to talk about the failure of Cyberpunk 2077 while discounting the massive success of The Witcher from the same studio

It's usually much more difficult to increase prices later after you've gathered more data. The Web is a much bigger, diverse place today than it was 10 years ago. Start at higher prices as a rule for [esp for non-technical audiences], measure, tweak and repeat.

It appears the gig economy will be remembered as the last stand of humans before the machines took over.

I find it interesting that feedback like this still abounds (and for good reason), considering the many tools and frameworks and services available online today. Apparently the field for delivering another tool or service continues to remain green :)

New comment by skynode in "Microsoft says 40 percent of all VMs in Azure now are running Linux"

skynode — Fri, 03 Nov 2017 13:50:59 +0000

Lots of emotional comments with the usual I-hate-MS bent, without a single reference to data showing Azure [Linux VM] users or non-users. Always shocking to see individuals who claim to be rational and open-minded in one domain become irrational, closed and judgemental in another.

Interestingly, I've been learning Go by reading the goethereum codebase. Any more awesome codebase pointers would be appreciated too. Thanks all.

I'm learning Go for working with distributed systems and blockchains, but I'm basically another C#/.NET dude. Apart from the requirements to follow and maintain certain Google Guidelines, I don't mind the language to be honest. Looks neat to me.
