I mean, it _is_ a really nice SSH/&c client.

"It boggles my mind to think this game even exists"

Does it, though? Remember that this was only a couple of decades after half the country was willing to kill the other half or die trying to keep black people enslaved.

Underestimating the viciousness and stupidity of people will always leave you surprised and disappointed.

Or... maybe don't tell your doctor how to do his or her job.

Surprise! An institute named after a megadose vitamin-C whackadoodle is pushing the idea that large doses vitamin C reduces illness duration. I'm shocked.

I mean, it's possible, but what a junk study.

The answer to your question is "Because it makes business sense to do so". Whether you can understand their reasons or not, the best indicator that Netflix has good reasons to use AWS is that it continues to do so. And that will be true until the (possible) day that it doesn't anymore.

I think the answer is Yes.

So what you're saying is that (1) Netflix is already secretly planning to move away from AWS, in which case your question is moot, or (2) everyone involved in platform decisions at Netflix is an idiot that can't do math.

The wastefulness of large bureaucracies has been a running joke for decades now, whether fair or not. That being said, I don't think you're going to find that Hacker News is a good forum for espousing your fiscal conservatism--especially when its couched in some particularly divisive contemporary tropes (e.g., "swamp"). Perhaps you're looking for https://reddit.com/politics ?

Rephrase the question: "Why should mithril.js be popular?"

Any idea whose premise begins with "[Group] is the enemy" is pretty much guaranteed to be stupid at best, dangerous at worst (I say this more about the comments than the initial tweet).

A marriage counselor is someone who is trained in dealing with your particular problem.

Would you walk into, say, a car dealership and ask for programming advice? Or would you talk to someone who programs for a living?

Don't ask the peanut gallery. Go see a marriage counselor.

They remind me of Material: https://material.io/design/

Why would it?

Don't bother with Oracle's builds anymore.

A 5-year-old article about program that's been abandoned for over a decade.

The only resource you need for compression comparison is http://mattmahoney.net/dc/text.html

The author of that website, incidentally, started the PAQ algorithm that KGB archiver uses.

Is this really a thing? How do these people find partners?

The only problem is it's guaranteed to fail for any non-trivial workload.

So, an XML-like language is the future of XML-like HTML?

Is godawful rainbow design the new thing now? First Mozilla, and now Dropbox?

Recent Java versions did something similar, allowing underscore characters, e.g., 7_000_000.

It's not really an annual fee, though. You're paying for a product with Amazon prime -- besides free movies, photos, shipping, etc, you can now get a special card with no annual fee _just for having it_.

Many noodles used in ramen are simply made of wheat, which is a simple carbohydrate. Beans/legumes are a good source of protein (among other things).

If you use real yakisoba noodles that are made from buckwheat flour, it has the advantage of decent fiber and protein (a complete protein, like soy), but not as many vitamins as beans.

Real ramen is good (e.g., https://imgur.com/gallery/KkLvG). The packaged stuff you buy from the store is pretty much guaranteed to be awful for you.

Companies make products to make money. As the saying goes, if you're not paying them, you're the product.

Why are you assuming that everyone agrees with you? Maybe we reject your premise.

Parser? Or viewer? http://sourceforge.net/projects/achviewer/

Um, no, he's not. He's writing a screenplay and dreaming about a cast that will never happen.

Preferred Sans-Serif font of the guys who did Bootstrap, who are now working for Github (or at least Mark Dotto is).

Strictly speaking, size and distribution. You only mentioned DNS, but it's worth noting that CloudFlare isn't just a DNS provider; it's also basically a big CDN, or actually more like a great big proxy server.

(Note: I've never actually used CF, so this is all simply my understanding).

CVS? Really?
