Before I clicked this, I thought 'suspended jaccuzzi' was the name of a startup.
- mbrundle 12y agoMe too, I thought it was a startup called Jacuzzi that had just been kicked out of China.
- icebraining 12y agoChina is .cn, .ch is Switzerland,
- alexkus 12y agoIndeed. It's .ch because that's the initialism of the Latin name for Switzerland: Confoederatio Helvetica. The Latin name is used to avoid favouring any one of the four official languages (German, French, Italian, Romansch).
- josefresco 12y agoI assumed 'jaccuzzi' was some sort of new programming language or framework that I missed out on, and that "suspended" was referring to a specific implementation clearly superior to non-suspended jaccuzzi ;)
- rahvin 12y agoWell to be honest, even though it is not a programming language, I would argue that this jacuzzi implementation is clearly superior to a non-suspended jacuzzi.
- Agathos 12y agoConventional Jacuzzi is much more amenable to static analysis. And just look at the startup time! But I'll admit: these folks know how to scale.
- Malic 12y agoI thought 'suspended jacuzzi' would have been the name of a IDM musical duo.
