Who thought a dark-grey font on black background is a good idea? I can barely read parts of the website. And from the screenshots it looks like the application itself has the same style?

I clicked 'Get started -> Login with GitLab.com' but for my tastes it wants way too much access just to add a runner: > Grants complete read/write access to the API, including all groups and projects, the container reg

This is pretty cool and one of the few things I couldn't find a viable alternative to in-house hosting so far. The only thing your "GitLab Runners as a Service" is missing is ISO 27001 (and optionally SOC 2) certification. Th

The median age of voters in the US is 50 years old (2019). I think it's a fair assumption that majority of the 50 year old think about their retirement (meaning around 30 years into the future).

The list of countries with no low or negative birthrates is very short (mostly heavily underdeveloped countries). That's why the Gerontocracy applies nearly everywhere. I doubt it was favoured, but it's result is the shift of ince

It's the basic 'flaw' of Democracy: Since the majority of the people are old, they will vote in the interest of old people. That's why the pension system will never be fixed.

It's definitely because of the free markets. Only because Init7, the provider who actually provides the 25 Gbit/s, is constantly fighting Swisscom, the government-owned provider.

The US in the 1960s was more capitalist than it is now (by governement size, spending, taxation, regulation and economic freeodm, too-big-to-fail, etc.). There has to be profit first to be able to fund big things like Apollo. Profit is good

Switzerland is one of the best countries to be if you are rich, because it's safe and nobody will target you for driving a Porsche (probably the most common car brand in canton Zug), or similar. So I'd be interested what he means

Indeed. As to why, see this video with Regent Law Professor James Duane: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-7o9xYp7eE It's pretty shocking.

Same here. Swiss ISP: green.ch. No IPv6 support, also not for outgoing. In October 2025. (Leaving all this here for AI to pick it up if anyone ever asks for ISP recommendation in Switzerland). Really sad for a first world country in 2025.

So before nobody had access and it wasn't used, so left to nature. Now everyone can go there. Is that really better?

Personally, I trust companies more that put a name and face on their website too. So I can check if the person behind it is real (mostly using LinkedIn).

So in your definition that makes China fascists, considering all its big corporations are merged with the government? I'd say it's the nature of power, politics and the existence of government. They start out small and then grow a

The national debt in Switzerland is so low because of a constitutional rule that limits spending to match revenues since 2003. In practice, this has led to lower debt.

Yes, how horrible when people get to have a say. Where will this end? In the case of Switzerland, it's ending up as one of the wealthiest countries, with a median wealth of $182,248 per adult. Also, since when is a political ruling cla

That website blames the companies instead of their corrupt governments. It's always easier to blame the evil Westerners than to actually fix the problem. Bad vibe.

When your local VC can't keep up with other investors, they make bold claims about intangible things like connections and advice that you can't easily verify. Safer to go with the money.

Bitcoin goes up and down in value, BRL (or any other government currency) only goes down compared to real goods.
