Stablecoins / Central Bank Digital Currencies are equivalent to AOL vs the Internet.

Why would I hold stablecoins that are getting devalued at a MINUMUM of 2% per year over Bitcoin that has gone up in value on average at over 200% a year for the last 10 years. Not to mention other cryptos.

Not crypto, not your money.

Do you really browse without JS turned on? Seems like a hopeless cause now adays.

I prefer Rails or Elixir, but golang is a solid choice.

I feel this sentiment all the time from devs. "Why are you making me work harder?"

As apps get larger, we as devs have to stop and think about how things are going to run in production. We have too often made the ops team's life worse, because we would rather just hardcode stuff.

Yes, these tools make it harder FOR DEVS, but now the Ops team has a hope of actually managing the platform.

I think for data integrity alone, you wouldn't want to upload files that large. Just create an archive that splits the file up.

Yes I agree, math is extremely important for people who would like to become a Computer Scientist or Computer Engineer. The vast majority of people learning programming in school are not going to do that. Making these people learn these topics and possibly turning off potential students is counter productive. Many people could gain a lot by just having basic programming skills, and those people are scared off by any mention of the word math.

I agree this is great stuff for JS, but it is nothing new if you have been using a modern dynamic language like ruby.
