I like YAML and use it a lot. But I'd argue the fact that it even allows/encourages you to do such things with it is a design flaw that ultimately has kept it from Do One Thing Well.

There are no direct costs there. I pay for the bandwidth. The ISP announces the /24 using their BGP ASN.

There are also cloud providers, like Vultr, that will allow you to do BGP with them. You could then get a network block routed to a VPS, then tunnel it out or whatever.

There's a PDF in this article that links to dozens of independent studies. Or, just google "covid vaccine efficacy" and it pulls up a bunch of links for you.

It really only takes a minimum of effort to answer these hard-hitting questions you've posed. As another example, I googled "why are pharmaceutical companies immune from liability over covid vaccine" and found https://www.hsdl.org/?abstract&did=848329 .
Agreed, your link corroborates this:

"First, plastic pollution is dominant where the local waste management practices are poor. This means there is a large amount of mismanaged plastic waste that can enter rivers and the ocean in the first place. This makes clear that improving waste management is essential if we’re to tackle plastic pollution."

For me it was realising that my total outgoings (after everything) are now 33% of what I earn every month and I have enough in savings to cover at least 2 years and every month I work adds two to that.

> I don't understand why academics trying to understand the spread of misinformation on Facebook draws comparisons to the authoritarian government in 1984.

Its because this "concern" over miss/disinformation is not isolated to academia, the ruling party has been pushing this narrative for some time now.

The ruling party has now aligned itself with the security state, the military industrial complex, and is now working on wrestling control of information away from big tech--all while expressing great concern over moms on Facebook getting their news from unauthorized sources as viewership of conventional mass media, which they have control over, continues to fall. I don't think it is unreasonable to view this as an authorization posture. Sure it's not Ministry of Truth status, but the comparison is there

Why not bury waste biomass in abandoned coal mine tunnels? Return the carbon to where it came from in the first place. Instead of composting on the surface (which releases CO2), all that industrial agricultural waste - chaff, sawdust, corn stalks,potato peels, used cooking oil, etc - as well as PLASTICS - could all just be buried in existing tunnels, kilometers under the surface, or pumped down into fracking /oil wells along with or instead of the water. In a few decades (centuries?), the stuff will decompose anaerobically, and we'll have fresh "fossil" fuels to start the cycle over again if we like. In the meantime, we remove billions of tons of carbon from the surface. Anyone see any obvious problems with this approach?

Dancing with (Flink) data streams: a gentle intro
The place was San Jose, Costa Rica; the mall is Multiplaza Escazu.
I completely agree with you. I've also wrote this post explaining why tightly coupling the DB to the frontend is such a big problem: https://wundergraph.com/blog/tight_coupling_as_a_service

That said, I've added support for direct DB access to WunderGraph based on demand from the community. Although it has drawbacks, users want to expose their DB as an API. I don't want to ignore them.

That said, I also want to address your second point. WunderGraph offers two abstraction points. For one, you can always swap out a backend and join multiple APIs together. This means, you could replace an API generated from a DB at any time, even partially, without breaking the client contract. Then, there's also a second abstraction point which has to do with the fact that WunderGraph persists GraphQL Operations by default. It allows you to swap out the entire schema if the Operations stay the same. Both options might not always work but offer good migration paths from a DB generated API away. If you have the resources, it always makes sense to "design" your API. Generating an API is not wrong in many ways. However, for prototyping and simple projects, it might be the right tool to get the job done in a cost sensitive way.

To sum it up, generated APIs are not ideal but it really depends on the case. In the end, the customer decides.
What we need to figure out how to do is to inoculate new developers against ever caring about the latest "opinionated framework/tech of the week" in the first place :(.
The difference is, a province in a democratic nation, so democratic that we have allowed votes on separation over the years, yet we had terrorists deciding they're going to split a province, without vote, without democracy, by violence. That they intend to seize power by force.

It was a very, very tumultuous time. It was the civil war that almost was.

And with many civil wars, 99.99% of the population did not want violence, but would have been caught bleeding, dead on the street.

Was it right? I don't know. But I know enough to restate this ... how can I judge?
> there's precious little about v6 that's easier.

Somebody doesn't do any address or route planning.

In IPv6 the amount of hosts in a subnet is totally unimportant (because there are always 64 bits for this). If you have, say, a thousand hosts you're going to need to buy decent network kit 'cos a pile of daisy-chained 5 port plastic home switches won't like that - but it's only a local problem, like buying enough cable. You can have however many subnetworks you felt was appropriate for managing and organising things, and only those need managing. However in IPv4 you need to know how many hosts there will be or might be in each subnet, in order to plan address allocation, and small changes can throw things into turmoil, you have to manage the individual host addresses.

Suppose I have four subnets with 40-50 hosts in each - in IPv4 chances are that's four /26s. And then somebody wants to add 20 hosts to one of the larger subnets so now it won't fit in a /26 any more. Ugh. This is likely to involve a re-numbering programme that might take weeks or months. I may need to reach above me, to find somebody who has enough address space to trade with me, and they may in turn have to reach up too, or worse find the money to buy space. Suddenly what should have been an easy problem ("add twenty new hosts") is a nightmare with a budget and project management.

IPv6 evaporates this entire class of problems. There might actually be people at large organisations whose job ceases to exist under IPv6. Certainly there are people whose job gets much easier and less stressful, and who don't have to say "No" as often any more.
I feel a similar worry. I'm a man in my thirties as well, Midwestern American culture which has a similar focus on work and nuclear family, and yet my work for the last 9 years has been focused on emotional communication. I see lots of social pressure that if one has emotional intimacy anywhere, it's with the nuclear family, typically just with the romantic partner. Outside of that (or even in those relationships), it almost becomes taboo to express one's fuller range of emotions.

So yes, I wish we don't have to cut off our digital ties to others where we may still be maintaining some of those non-work, non-family relationships.

> Our public broadcasting here in the U.S. is another casualty of the culture war, as it is accused of having a liberal bias.

I’m a liberal American, and our public broadcasting (NPR and PBS) absolutely do have a liberal bias. It’s not as extreme as some outlets, but it’s certainly left-of-center (relative to the US political spectrum).

> Bias exists in media to be sure, but one "side" in this country is completely off the rails; assaults truth, trafficks in conspiracy theories, and has generally adopted the fomenting of distrust, fear, hate and anger as its MO in its efforts to accumulate power.

I agree with this as a statement of fact (though I frame it as an epistemological crisis brought on by the aggressive politicization of left-dominated institutions) but I really hate how my side uses it as an excuse to backslide. “We only have to be a little bit better than the other side, no need to move forward, blame everything on the Republicans no matter how tenuous.” This sort of race-to-the-bottom thinking is exactly what is wrong with American politics. The Republican side is broken and the Democrats will deflect any constructive criticism by pointing at the Republicans (and similarly progressives/liberals deflect to conservatives). We have to destroy the Republicans before we can consider improving/restoring ourselves.

It doesn't make sense to risk the lives of billions of people just to try and stick it to the oil companies. The conclusion that is implied by this type of sentiment is, "well if we don't give them a life raft then they will be forced to go out of business." The conclusion that if things get bad enough people will stop acting in self interest and start considering the greater good is questionable. The more realistic reality is imo people are going to continue to burn fossil fuels because it benefits them economically to do so. The situation 10 to 20 years from now is probably going to look more similar to today than not. Some countries make progress, but others increase their emissions.

Internal combustion engines are too well understood and wide spread to conceivably ban. Our planet will boil if we don't develop carbon sequestering capability at scale. It doesn't seem fair to me to risk the lives of all those people that will die from climate related problems just because we don't like the oil companies.
The need for hitting nested “paged” data structures on first render isn’t that contrived, but I’ve never found myself needing to juggle the cursors, since you’re usually only hitting the first page for the nested ones. Loading subsequent pages would be a standalone query, rather than running the root query again with different cursors.

(the example I came up with for this article a few years has a fairly realistic example of nested pages: https://andrewingram.net/posts/optimising-your-graphql-reque...)
I feel the same way, and I'm in Canada. I absolutely do not have 'passion' for anything related to development of any kind really, at least not anymore, and I think it's a silly word to use for typing code into a screen. I've done a little native mobile app learning, a little backend/sysadmin stuff in Python, and a little Go and C++ just for academic interest. My connection with various aspects of CS and programming is about particular interests, and no I don't and have never felt that about React in any way. Computers and programming lend us a lot of power if used in novel ways, and I think that's worth something, but I wouldn't describe it as passion. It can be isolating, it can be pointless and damaging to our bodies, it can be intensely boring and frustrating and not stimulating. That said, Vue is neat and interesting for some reason, but not so much so that I'm building arbitrary projects in it weekly.
This would be the least of my issues with Snopes. Plus, haven’t you heard? This has been debunked by Snopes.
That way of boiling down Finding Nemo seems to miss why the story is designed that way. It doesn’t describe anything about what happens to Marlin as a character, just a few basic plot points, and then in the end he somehow learns that “love depends on trust”. Uh, ok.

If you actually want to understand why Finding Nemo “consistently tugs at heartstrings worldwide”, Craig Mazin used it as his primary example in “How to write a movie”, episode 403 of Scriptnotes[1]. (TL;DR: the purpose of everything that happens in a movie is to expose the hero to as much agony as possible, so that the change they’re forced to go through feels real. I don’t know what that means for your startup pitch, though.)

Let's extrapolate a bit on this.
> I cannot have phone with all apps in one and only store.

All apps? Are you aware that currently nintendo does not publish the Super Mario Switch game, to the iPhone? Super mario is arguable an app.

Your rights are not being violated because someone refuses to publish to your specific app store.

Instead, you can have exactly what you have now. Which is that you can get a phone, and only use the Apple App store.

That way, you don't have to deal with other app stores that you don't like. You can simply only use the apple app store.

> or any other stores at all.

Then don't deal with them! Don't use those other app stores.

You were the one, at the very beginning, who said this "cannot accept there is group of customers that just doesn't want to interact them directly.".

Which doesn't make any sense given your new statements.

It sounds like, actually, customers don't have to interact with these developers directly. No-one will force them to install other app stores.

In reality, this has nothing to do with what you choose to do on your own phone. You are free to use it how you like.

Instead, what you want is to force other people, to do certain things with their own property.

So are we supposed to do, ban the study or research of topics that can't be objectively measured because the results might be interpreted as scientific reality by some people? The line between science and politics is not as clear cut as you might think. History and psychology can't be objectively measured. Anything, even hard science, can be politicized. The existence of climate change and COVID-19 are considered political opinions by a good chunk of the population.

A meritocracy isn't about guarantees, other than ranking is by performance not externalities. By most definitions, a meritocracy is impractical, granted. In a real-world sense, the socio-economic status of every individual on earth is primarily governed by luck/circumstance. Not to say there aren't exceptions, but there has to be an inordinate amount of "merit" AND luck to overcome the initial state, statistically. To whit, a human lifetime is more complex and complicated to navigate, than the 3 body problem.

If you want to bring Germanic and Slavic language families into the picture, they are more proto-Indo-European language families, none mutually comprehensible despite common roots. We can also mention the numerous offshoots of Sanskrit in India, chiefly Hindi today, but with many others in use, likewise traced back to proto-Indo-European. (Thus the "Indo" part of the name.)

We can talk about Chinese political unity up into the modern era, but the shared cultural legacy goes back to the classical period, mediated by traditional literature originating in 14th century. Mandarin has long been the language of imperial administration, and has exerted a regularizing influence on local languages without displacing them. Still, it is certainly a very different language from that used to administer empires many centuries ago, despite relying on a common written syllabary. Meanings drift.

The original topic was how people who speak only Mandarin are taught that other Sinitic languages are "just dialects", and are misled by seeing users of these other languages writing in Mandarin, translating as they go; and not understanding the depth of translation involved. This confusion between translation and mere transcription does not seem to occur outside China. The current government prefers the confusion, probably to help enforce a belief in more unity than exists.
