My ethernet is also capped at 1 Gb/s for most of my computers. The 10 Gb/s connection is still useful as it makes sure that things running at different devices won't affect each other. Streaming won't affect games won&#x

That is a narrative that misses the point of the thread and is generally not compatible with hard data. For example, the amount of suicides in US during 2020 went down .

It's not a string either though: in the same way integer addition (almost always) does not make sense, string concatenation (almost always) does not make sense either. The proper type would allow for equality check and explicit string

I guess it depends how you think about it. From computational perspective, it's heavyweight. On the other hand, it really optimizes for minimal human effort, on several levels: * GPT-3 is conceptually simple: the effort to invent it an

I think we are really torturing language here. I don't want to get into specifics of what constitutes business value, how to value brand and customer satisfaction and so on. I can add more examples like https://deepmind.com&

Voice recognition, translation, OCR, image classification, etc. is done through neural networks mostly nowadays. If https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Translate does not seem like having business value to you, then

Most of batch workloads are not that latency sensitive. You can send them to the other side of the world as everyone is sleeping there right now.

I don't understand why you think it's hard to tell your CI/CD pipeline to run itself on a schedule. I find this totally consistent with my tooling (I have CI/CD in place for many different reasons, this is one of them) a

No, in the context of the conversation, it's an argument for a higher valuation of the entity. The value of every corporation primarily reflects expectation of future profits. That's the reason P/E ratios differs a lot even f

Yep, this is exactly it. By the way, even SQL Server can use Kubernetes for HA nowadays.[1] [1] https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/linux/tutorial-sql-serv...

I agree that technology advances would have lead to massive deflation without all the money printing. The point of money printing is to do precisely this, so that the measure of economy does not get out of sync with the size of the economy.

Inflation, using the usual definition, cannot be 'masked by technology' as technology is one of the things that legitimately determine general price level. Inflation counts and always counted general price level with effects of te

Knative[0] pushes in that direction from the side of "complicated" Kubernetes. It's still far away from easy, but I expect that the solution will look like this -- a software that uses Kubernetes base to provide high-level pr

Kubernetes is our one shot at having the universal vendor-neutral cluster interface. The fact that it's time consuming to do simple things directly against it doesn't surprise me in the same way I'm not surprised that writing

As much as I like the described move from "functions" to "containers", solutions like KNative / Cloud Run are still inherently more hackable than solutions like Fargate. It's good to have properly defined, stab

I agree. If a smart investor notices that a company business model stops working the moment governments pass legislation introducing carbon markets, it's a good investment strategy to short the stock. But notice that it's the gove

I mostly agree. Just notes: Classic example in favor of monorepos is shared internal library. You should be able to change its API in one step, because that's the way to not having to care about compatibility at all. Compatibility conc

Well let's take frontend/backend separation in a classic webapp -- let's not think about React for now. This makes good concern separation as rendering HTML is something else than computing prices. If you put frontend and bac

It's a common sense, but it's really hard to argue against super-fine splitting. Having repo per module seems like stronger separations of concerns from a distance. Of course, what in the end really decides about the strength of y
