Would you say that 9/11 was "spectacular" ?

I see that your app/tool is linked on Portainer's website. What's the business model behind it ? I do not see any pricing and I could be really interested as I'm looking for a solution to abstract away k8s complexity for a medium sized company I'm working for.

Uh, every Google search already shows me sponsored links to competitors’ sites at the top of the results.

What would you say if in 5 years with Waymo, you want to go to Burger King but before taking you there, it suggests ‘hey, why don’t you go to this McDonald’s instead?’ At first you’d get a discount on your ride if you accept the suggestion, and then once everyone gets used to it, no more discounts and everyone ends up paying more than human taxis cost today.

That's really a shitty move from MS. But, technically, since they're still in the commit history, you can retrieve them for personnal/private use.

If your tool was available on-premise I would be really interested. Since a tool like this is primarily intended, I think, for internal use cases, making it available on-premise should be a priority from my point of view.

Beside this, the tool looks great, congrats for the job, well done!

This is what censorship looks like.

Colin Kaepernick's NFL career has been destroyed just because he kneeled during an anthem.

More recently, Kyrie Irving had a lot of problems "just" because he shared a controversial documentary available on Amazon.

That's not what I would call "freedom of expression".

Certainly what you point out is probably part of the problem but it is, in my opinion, certainly not the biggest part.

For me, current inflation is caused by the fact that people have too much money the do not need and they invest it instead of buying goods.

This leads too more speculation on everything, stocks, cryptos, energy, real estate and even staple foods.

In the last 10 years every of those indexes has gone massively up. This has resulted in companies having share prices increasing faster than their performance would have suggested. If there's more demand for company X stocks then the price will go up even if company's performance is not so great.

And here starts the loop for me, company X employees want a slice of this cake. Their are recompensed for the higher stock price (bonuses, wage increases) and not for their "real life" performance. And now those employees have even much more money they didn't need, so what they do? They invest and speculate => loop.

While the upper middle class (and above) has became richer thanks to this (more salary, stellar investment performance, low interest rates to invest even more etc) the bottom class has lost everything, they have pretty much the same salary than 10 years ago but everything is more expensive.

Nevertheless, almost everywhere in the world, we have also seen wealth tax cuts. So those who had money to invest have now even more and those who need to be helped are helped even less because less taxes means a state less able to help them.

All of this have brought us to where we are today. Unfortunately.

Sounds like a fake news to me. Is it even possible to visually identify a jet that is flying 1km (!!!) bellow the airplane?
