Me thinking a 10 year stint at academia. Get a PhD.....

INMHO any company that sells solution completely relying on managed cloud services by these 3 has 2 problems to deal with:

- What happens to the cost of these services when company scales out?

- Whats preventing AWS, AZURE or GCP from copying the stack and selling a new "managed service" which does what you did in the first place?

Seriously, I would like to know? Do people take these into accounts before relying on AWS, Azure or GCP completely?

Hey dbenny, Just browsed the careers page and I saw few positions where I could be a good fit. Are there TZ restrictions for the remote positions?

Thanks.

> It is percent of population that matters not absolute number of vaccinated people. Israel is near 70%, while India is only 0.5% [1].

Which is more commendable considering the vastness of the land itself. Israel == Delhi and surrounding reasons.

Given the economic parameters of the country, it has better CFR than US, Italy, Germany and UK. Thats pretty amazing considering the health expenditure and wealth of US, Italy, Germany, UK is enormously high than India.

As when number fudging that is not happening.You can look at data from independent foreign houses stationed in India.

India. It is an enigma that why is India's response to Covid-19 gets ignored. India to date has vaccinated more people than Israel and has one of the least CFR per capita.

I never had the courage of say this...

I wanted to try zstd for a rust based application running as on Android. The cross-compilation and integration left me in pain and I am stuck with `zlib` which is also great IMHO.

On a different note, some research must be done to investigate such low prevalence and fatality ratio in countries like India and Pakistan.

I work for a company dominated by non CS . They brought in contractor since the contractor's CEO is a good talk. This contractor is full of full-stack JS devs. Now we have their ideas implemented on edge devices. Noice.

> Rust without borrow-checker.

Might as well go back to Golang.

> New Rust users are coming, predominantly, from other languages instead, notably Java and Go, and scripting languages

True

> The appeal of safety is not what wins the users it gains today.

You are wrong here, mate. If borrow checker prevents mass adoption, I am okay with that. I have dabbled enough problems in poorly written code by "full stack" developers who write code by combining different blog-posts from Medium without any thoughts to underlying memory model, that I am happy that some language feature prevents these folks to take up a Language.

Nope, this is wishful thinking along with the lines "that allowing China to flaunt WTO rules and prosper will help it to be democratic."

Counter-points

- China doesn't want to sensor innovation, but control it.

- Chinese companies and people have access to the latest innovation in all fields as most of the stuff is assembled there.

- China reverse-engineers these innovations of West and float the market with competition which are many a times subsidized by Communist Party.

- Censorship of individuals does not matter as long as Chinese companies have access to latest innovation which they can reverse engineer.

- the interviewer at FAANG is that the technical interview holds the same weight as other non-technical rounds (not sure if he's BSing me) and for good reasons.

Not true. I know someone in high ops of these things. For G I an A I can attest, you have to give the best runtime solution, otherwise its a NO.

Look at Indian subcontinent, the entire Indian subcontinent has over 20% of world's population and yet couple of thousand deaths due to Covid.

I believe micro-droplets being evaporated by the notorious South Asian heat is playing a part.
