It’s typically called notarization but in North America it is often supplemented by a witness depending on the class of document. Many documents don’t even require that.

Had an acquaintance that worked in strategy have to explain something similar for the Netherlands. They thought they could just cut everyone and be off the books no repercussions.

I’m not justifying it but I don’t think it was a problem on American soil yet… and just more “not my problem”. Totally shortsighted.

DOGE probably didn’t help matters but the problem started to rise in 2023. My gut reaction was “damn that DOGE!” too but they didn’t start with cuts until 2025. So it likely just exasperated an already growing concern. This is the same kind

Is entirely context dependent. I can agree in some scenarios but when it’s a utility or gov site that I can’t really avoid it’s less straightforward.

The article is comparing 2 scenarios that have other explanations: a fire sale of a large fleet and Tesla which has an image problem because of its leadership. I’m not saying the article is wrong I’d just like to see broader representation

A vocal minority are freedom loving. A significant number are hooked on consumer debt. I feel like any sweeping generalization is going to be wrong… especially when referencing the USA which is basically 50 countries and has a population ex

Probably that’s the scenario. You want something simple and narrowly focused. Advanced and infinitely configurable isn’t always a virtue.

I find it mildly devious when numbers are inflated by changing the period from seconds to days. Aeron and NSQ have slightly different design principles. Which can easily be identified in their feature list. Aeron’s origins are exchanges for

Everything’s benefits and tradeoffs. With this model there’s a clear ownership model. I’m not suggesting it’s right for everyone but it is a trend we’ve noticed with a number of clients over the last 2-3 years.

we have hundreds of clients most on k8s or openshift. Many of them are shifting to smaller team or division oriented clusters so that they can move at their own pace in consuming capabilities, tools, security practises, etc. It also simplif

Comparing a single function to an entire ecosystem is crazy. Making an LTS imposes a skew of compatibility and support to all downstream vendors as well as the core team. The core team has done a great job on keeping GAed resources stable a

I would even go so far as to say free users aren’t customers in a platform like this. There’s no revenue model and if it’s “run without constraint” you get some fun scaling problems but those types of issues can sometimes lead to optimizati

It doesn't sound like a great situation to be in. It sounds like the founder has strong opinions. I suspect he subscribes to Trunk Based Development[1] and Continuous Delivery[2]. He also likely wants to follow the practises that "

Agree in many cases you can do this however with point 2 the removal of a function(s) is literally the aim. The accretion of functions benefits legacy systems however its tradeoff is potential harm to users new and unfamiliar with the libra

I think the reference might be more in relation to OSS tooling such as docker, kubernetes, and a lot of the other stuff in the CNCF project catalogue which is often VC backed start-ups with OSS codebases.

To be fair I think most of the OSS languages are Cathedrals. Golang recently had an uproar over dep (community lead initiative) vs vgo (core committer). Ruby seems similar. With the recent departure of Guido as BDFL I think Python is the ex

I mentioned in another comment but many countries have free data for WhatsApp plans which kind of entrenches their position. They might lose out eventually but it won't be overnight.

In Argentina many cellular plans include 30 days of WhatsApp for free on pay-as-you-go plans. Even if you lapse your payment for the 30 days you still have WhatsApp texting. Interestingly audio, photos, and video don't work.
