What do you think the rich family would have done to her if they knew what she was actually doing?

What exposes your biases is that you reduce her to the superficial appearance that she puts on for the rich in order to survive. This is not only viewing her through the perspective of the wealthy in the film, but counter to what the movie itself tells you she is forced to do and become, outside this limited perspective. It’s embracing an ignorance of the entirety of her characterization that the film intentionally elaborates.

And this is what Bong Joo Ho himself said about his movie:

“I tried to express a sentiment specific to Korean culture, [but] all the responses from different audiences were pretty much the same. Essentially, we all live in the same country, called Capitalism.”

The film is a depiction of life under Capitalism and all the related tensions, violence, and inequality that comes along with it. At a certain point, refusing to acknowledge this is just being willfully obtuse.

We moved our cluster into the Hetzner Cloud for Emvi [1]. Yes, they don't offer a managed solution and it took us about two weeks to set up and test the cluster properly. But the cost is less than 1/6 of what gcloud costs us. If you have the resources and knowledge to maintain your own cluster, check it out. They have insanely good pricing (2,96 €/month for the cheapest instance which is faster than Googles $15/month VM).

Here is a very good tutorial on how to set up your own cluster: https://community.hetzner.com/tutorials/install-kubernetes-c...

No, I think that'd be very unlikely because it'd be a late symptom after substantial damage has been done. Compared to the frequency of syncopal episodes I'd expect in people sick with any other cold or flu, I think it's overwhelmingly more likely to be from other causes.

And if it actually were causing neurological damage, I'd expect still more causes like seizures and the like.

I really think "You should always have 18 months of expenses saved" (assuming this is in savings) isn't universal. If you're fairly young, single and have a new source of disposable income then a few months savings seems prudent and paying down debt seems like the best course of action. I remember diligently building a large emergency fund knowing I could scale down drastically if I lost my job and seeing interest accrue in accounts I could have paid off. If you have kids, a mortgage, and a single household income you really have to be more risk averse.

I do think bankruptcy should be thought of more as a business decision than a personal decision.

> I'm not sure I would call them impractical for everyday wear. I wear N95 masks when commuting during active wildfires.

Right on. For the past couple of years, because the Seattle summers have been hazy due to the wildfire smoke, I still have quite a large batch of N95 masks. I too used to wear them during my commute and the only problem I see is that if you're at risk (underlying respiratory/heart problems) you'll not be able to tolerate the mask... With a good fitment, it makes it harder to breathe.

I think it's unfair to label people hoarders for having these masks... After a couple of consecutive years of wildfire smoke, I think this is the new normal and everyone should have them. It's not my problem that the healthcare industry has a supply issue with these masks, they should have a different, hopefully more efficient and preferential supply chain. I hope they don't buy them from Home Depot (where I got them from).
that's kind of what all vaccines do. so I guess you're right. (but I'm not an expert)

But that's what I'm saying. The flu is already a serious deal and nobody panics.

In any case, surely there are some differences between the 1918 world of the Spanish flu and the current world, both in actual medicine and what we learned about how to manage contagious diseases? Maybe the Spanish flu today (I mean, if it started today and hadn't happened before) wouldn't have as many victims.

I wonder what they would say if you asked:

"Why do you want to put me in contact with customers?"

It doesn't seem like a VC would cold call just to connect some rando startup with a customer for no apparent reason.

Granted a more casual meeting about something else it might make sense "Hey I know a guy who wants a thing you have." but a cold call like that seems strange.
Except that costs time and money, and for many people isn't worth it. Good business is not about eliminating risk but understanding and managing it.

For a startup, the risk of AWS doing something is tiny compared to all other risks so not worth spending effort to mitigate.

For a moderately sized company, true, being on multiple clouds may have an advantage.

For a large company, you get long term contracts with AWS that mitigate the risk.

I'm aware of how marginal tax rates are applied. That's why I said "while my average tax rate may increase" (in a hypothetical situation), I can still net more overall due to increase in the absolute $ return on the TFSA portfolio.

I'm responding with respect to the OP's comment about beign bumped into a higher marginal tax bracket. Just because you are, doesn't mean you'll automatically end up with less discretionary income.
I kind of assume it's because news websites don't exactly have the best web designers working for them. Might just be technically hard to make it so that javascript doesn't get loaded when someone is logged in.

But if they can't spend the effort to do that, I guess their loss. Or gain, I doubt they lose many subscribers over this. Probably they just figure no one cares and they're probably mostly right.
I'd probably read something like that. I hate buying cars. I know I'll get scammed somehow and pay more than I should.
> The difference is that the word "disease" is something that at least theoretically can be cured.

Nowhere does the definition of disease imply that. There are many diseases today that are patently incurable.

Aging, like cancer, is multifaceted. There are many low hanging fruit that we can begin to tackle now.

> you're effectively saying that immortality is theoretically achievable.

I'm not saying anything about immortality. But I don't see how a 100, 120 year average lifespan with expanded quality of life isn't achievable.

Europe’s Fastest Growing Companies
This is just not accurate. The Buffalo plant economic stimulus package had a clawback provision if Tesla doesn't meet employment milestones. They have been meeting those milestones and so will not have to pay the fee:
https://buffalonews.com/2020/02/13/tesla-looks-like-a-good-b...

I know people want to make this into some corruption scandal (blaming it either on the state or on Tesla or both), but the state did their job by putting these employment requirements in their contract WITH PENALTY, and Tesla is doing their job by hiring enough people to avoid the penalty.

What's really the problem, here? 5/6ths utilization of capital equipment seems pretty good, particularly in a fast evolving field like solar power (where things like bifacial panels and Tesla's integrated solar roof weren't really a thing when the deal was first signed).

From what I understand the overproduction isn't because of lack of demand, but provinces' slow rollout of sale and distribution.

For instance, here in Ontario the government had a plan that would have had 40 physical stores across the province by October 2018 with plans for more. The incoming government killed that. The province saw fewer than 20 stores by the following April, largely concentrated in Toronto.

Everything did look primed for a great market and it was essentially kneecapped out of political spite.

>need to be conserved for public health users.

I think we should all ask ourselves why we take it for granted that we should simply have to ration masks. Why aren't there enough masks available for everyone for inevitable outbreaks like this? Why don't we have the industrial capacity to manufacture masks in the US, leaving us reliant on foreign imports?

We spend ~$80 billion dollars a month on our endless war, military and spy agencies in the name of "national security", but I'd argue that having ample medical supplies (and the ability to manufacture them) are just as, if not more important, to our "national security" as the vast majority of our military activities. Hopefully this crisis will not become to severe and will serve as a wakeup call for us to rethink our national priorities before the next inevitable crisis.
Well, for one, I depend on the economy for my food. I also depend on it for my drinking water. Oh, and in winter, for my heat.

Leaving that aside, I've also found the economy helpful in providing me with clothes and shelter.

And when I have gone off in the woods and played survivalist (and yes, I have), I depended on the economy not only for much of the gear which enabled this, but also for keeping me safe from attack by other tribes while off in the woods. No-one was fighting me for a particular foraging/hunting ground.

> That's not a problem with dashboards. That's a problem with training and staffing people.

Again, the whole point of us being computer people is that we think computers can solve problems in repeated, reliable ways. You can run a highly reliable, say, delivery-based bookstore by having a well-staffed group of well-trained human phone operators who pass messages onto human shippers. People did that (and they still do), and it worked. But we have the thesis that you can do this more efficiently and more reliably - in short, that you can deliver more business value - by using computers to automate the process.

> The number of businesses that need to worry about scalability is vanishingly small compared to the number of businesses that don't. Let's not pretend that one company's problems are the same as another's.

I do fully agree that different companies have different priorities, and in particular I think it's totally fine to rely on humans in the loop while a system is still young (or has just been redesigned) and you don't have a good codified sense of how it behaves yet. However,

1) Wall-based dashboards aren't a best practice, any more than SSHing to production servers is a best practice. It's the right thing for some cases, some of the time. I'd agree with "It's a valuable skill, and it's been useful;" I disagree with "It's so valuable you should make sure everyone does it." If you have the option of either getting good at alerts or getting good at dashboards, spend your time getting good at alerts, first. I'd say the same about infrastructure-as-code vs. SSH-to-prod (and I say this as someone who regularly SSHs to prod and is real good at single-machine old-school sysadminnery).

2) Scalability isn't about absolute size, it's about how much you can do with the resources you have. Small teams and not-yet-profitable teams need to focus more on scalability (in the sense I'm using it) because they simply can't staff enough people to cover up gaps in operability. For example, you're much better off figuring out how to set up HA and automated failover than saying "We're too small for that," setting up a weekly pager rotation with people on call 24 hours a day, and alerting them so much they can't do non-toil work (or worse, burning them out and having them find another job).

Many years ago I was on a ~4-person team at my undergrad computer club running web hosting. We ended up getting popular enough that many real university applications (course websites for submitting assignments, etc.) depended on us. Our priority was that, as students, we couldn't get paged during finals week because our academics would take priority, and yet finals week was the most critical time for the service to stay up. So we got real good at HA, at reproducible deployments and config management, etc. (I remember one time we spun up a new server during finals week - and we didn't have to do any fiddling to add it to the cluster precisely because we'd automated the provisioning process.) We had web pages with graphed metrics to inform our capacity planning, but no dashboards that anyone was expected to stare at, just alerts on full outages.

Anecdotally and in my opinion, Azure is more complete than GCP. Between stuff like this and their product dropping stigma, most of my customers (in the cloud consulting space) are trying to get into Azure. This is across every industry we work in (retail especially). I've come across 2 customers in 3 years of consulting that want anything to do with GCP.

Plenty of technical reasons (eg. what the sibling comments mentioned), but most importantly: there's no Internet/Web standard that I'm aware of which would prohibit me from doing so.
Not much precipitation in Phoenix, and the roads tend to be dry.
What comes to mind is the saying 'if you can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen'.

I think of this constantly when hearing about people who want something (YC, acting, medicine, sports, music career, endless list) but then for some reason aren't built to take the punishment (that others are).

There are some people that can take the punishment (if you want to call it that) and not miss a beat. Just like there are people that can climb mountains, race cars, play football, run marathons and live off in the jungle.

This idea that everyone should be suited for anything is just not correct.

And don't think 'well I won't know so why not try?'. Most people have some basic idea of what they are cut out for and can do and tend to stay away from (smartly) things that aren't for them.

That's fair - I think part of it is also that you don't really have a green vs. red state (which is a good part of what I object to in the demo presentation), you just have a general feel, and no specific state is defined as an actual problem. (And most of what you're trying to achieve is a shared sense of what's being done, which is very different from a shared sense of what's broken and needs fixing.)
Counterpoint to your PS2 - I've used Azure support at both my enterprise job and my microISV - each time the responses have been quite quick, and each time they have been helpful.

For this to work, all the apps that a person expects to see on their computer should be there, running on an ARM chip. So far, Microsoft hasn’t gotten traction there. Apple will of course pull macOS users along, but it’s been running away from modularity since the PowerBook Duo.

You say, it doesn’t have to be native apps - Google Docs, etc works great in the browser. Then you’re competing with Chromebooks, and I’m not sure a modular system can be as cheap as that.
I suppose you think we should not defend ourselves?
