People tend to overcomplicate things with K8S. I have never once seen a massively distributed IoT system run without a TON of headache and outages with k8s. Sure, it can be done, but it requires spending 4-8x the amount of of development time and has many more outages due to random things.

It's not just the network, its also the amount of config you have to do to get a deterministic system. For IoT, you dont need as much bursting (for most workloads). Its a bunch of devices that are connected 24/7 with fairly deterministic workloads, that are usually using some type of TCP connection that is not HTTP, and trying to shove it into an HTTP paradigm costs more money and more complexity and is not reliable.

Otherwise, "it depends"... If you get a job, you can also be laid off.

But if you are able to get a job, while also keeping your business going, this seems to be the best way to financially insulate yourself - as long as you don't let your business actually stagnate too badly, which will only make the economic environment likely impact it more.

It is so bizarre this alternative milk that goes around. I am totally onboard with finding an alternative to save cows from inhumane practice, however, very little of the alternative milk that is out there is anywhere near as healthy as normal milk.

Meanwhile anyone can produce any type of alternative milk and people think they are buying health food.

It can be a tough sell, and recruiters are trained to just say no, but persistence pays off. Same thing applies to getting jobs in general. If you aren’t persistent in your application process and aggressive in your negotiation process, you simply won’t have the best outcomes. It just becomes easy to turn you down.

Personally however this would be awesome. It is extremely rare I don’t have my phone. already any passport control area is digitally scanning my passport so there is not really more privacy concerns. In addition I imagine a lot of us use the plane ticket features of iphone already, so not having to also separately get my ID out would be great.

Seems like this is long overdue.

Would be shocked if Tesla did not have this capability.

So who knows if this is part of their testing and validation, but it is not true that you can’t test for different environments than where the core design takes place. It is extremely common to do this in rapid fashion without having to transport things to an alternate climate.

Personally I have gone out of my way to submit polite and concise feedback, as I really wanted them to win. I used to be so happy here as a customer but inch by inch it had just become overwhelmingly unpleasant.

So over the last year I have slowly moved most of my banking to a competitor, and which as a whole is bigger and does have as smooth of a UX, but has been flawless with actual banking features. The support has made me feel like they actually want my business rather than being a nuisance to them.

It was good while it was good simple, I imagine running a bank is not easy, best of luck to everyone that was a part of it in their next venture.

Probably about 1/2 of my friends are paid members. Since they changed their billing model/feature/plans earlier in the year, more people in my circle started paying and I can not think of anyone who left.

While there can be some frustrations with some of the segments, it really varies heavily sport to sport and area to area. In trail running segments where I am it's pretty rare to find a completely unbelievable segment entry that screams someone is cheating. But at the end of the day often you are filtering the segment results down to your followers or clubs list.

Overall I find Strava to keep me more engaged in friendly competition than other-words and the premium features do a good job of adding actual value in terms of another view/opinion in your training status.

Having said all that, my circle of friends are not your casual athletes.

But yea by default it appears most stuff is c and gtk right now.

in this case however, they do sell laptops. so, they aren’t completely incapable of supply chain.

depending on if the laptop is really an in-house design, or not, they may be certainly going from a very basic to an extremely sophisticated supply chain.

or it could be that it’s not an in-house design fully and someone else is doing the supply chain and general design of the hardware.

the date is extremely optimistic or the handset hardware is much farther along than is obvious from the content on the site.

having said that i am a backer and can’t wait. vote with your dollar i suppose.
