This has little to do with economics.
Age 0-18: You are under the care of society.
Age 18-60: You are a productive member of society.
Age 60+: You are under the care of society again.
This is always how humans have lived.
I use this and it's convenient but the fact that Google can wipe out my entire digital identity on a whim scares me.
It’s not clear to me _why_ this has happened
I always assumed it was a combination of WW II, collapse of the Empire and then a series of terrible governments since the 1960s.
A compelling successor to both Heroku and App Engine is Google Cloud Run. Dead simple to setup, no frills and cheap to run.
Yes but after exceeding ~2 solar masses (Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff limit) the neutron star will undergo further collapse to form a black hole.
A good number of their engine components these days are made of cheap plastic that just disintegrates after slight use.
Love dbeaver. The cloud version is cloudbeaver.io
So nature is essentially hedging bets. I wonder if this is unique to the human species?
Tldr - The author likes some memes and doesn't like others. I'm not sure why this warrants a blog post.
Cool, I never knew that
My one annoyance with these is that they aren't supported in Typescript i.e no return types.
Yeah, I know what you mean. I've read far too many isekai manga/manhwa than I should have (not super into anime).
Shield Hero was good but FFF-Class Trashero probably tops the lot for me. Really good storytelling and incredible character development.
Thank you as always zzzeek for the hard work.
It's funny that this applies to not just programming but a bunch of other stuff like politics and religion.
I have a similar implementation of RPC over AMQP in Node.js and 2 things i'd advise. (Similar to my sibling poster)
1) Don't requeue on error. One bad message could bring down your entire service. Better to just push it to Sentry and make a fix for it.
2) Have a timeout in your message handler.
It's not about which is the best technology. The barrier to entry for Node.js is next to nothing and the size of the ecosystem is incomparable to Elixir. Which means tons of companies will go with Node and feed back to the ecosystem and so on...
Also see the brilliant anime Terra Formars. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terra_Formars
It's more of the Portuguese Empire collapsed otherwise they'd still be around till today. FYI, the Arabs in question here were the Omani Sultanate who operated a gigantic slave trade on the East African coast.
I used to work in enterprise. There's nothing I miss more than Oracle's automatic partition management.
In my country geothermal power plants are run by a state corporation. It's definitely not as easy to scale but in an ideal world I would have it over fossil fuels.
I can see this happening. Sucks for everyone who bought in at $18K.
So what is the likely outcome of the fallout of Tether and Bitfinex? I'm guessing the price of Bitcoin will fall drastically?

The OP has made some huge assumptions here but MPESA, even with all its social and economic benefits, only got to where it is today because of Vodafone's deep pockets.Don't really see a similar Bitcoin champion emerging in these parts.
No I don't.I'm using the Drive API https://developers.google.com/drive/ which is free.I'm still very much testing it out but there's a lag in retrieving tags.I'm curious though how it works for you now?
cool.I made one that streams from Google Drive on top of App Engine using Backbone. http://tunebanda.com
