Twist the rug into a mobius strip - then all problems can be considered swept under the rug (from an appropriate reference frame)

You say "police state", I say "government subsidized backups".

(e) Thousands of person-years wasted bickering over how real climate change is and what the magnitude will really be, when it ought to be obvious that renewable energy sources are preferable to non-renewable ones.

Over long journeys, those 3 nanograms really add up.

Are there really significant use-cases which require both a higher performance processor and GPIO pins? I imagine at this point there is value in splitting the product line to tailor towards "mini Arm server", and "IoT/robotics" users separately.

I love that Google are willing to such a big swing at Microsoft in the text of this announcement - I just wish AWS wasn't so badly shackled busy it's marketing and PR people these days.

Well, I'm off to learn about Apache Tomcat so I can be ready for 2025.

This seems like an opportune moment to remind/notify any fellow UK dark-dwellers that the NHS recommends taking vitamin D supplements here in the winter.

I would think for companies default should be:

- Pay the tax we think you owe, or go directly to jail

- if you can prove later that you overpaid, we will give you a rebate on taxes over the next N years

- if the government is consistently getting your tax estimate wrong (in your view), then perhaps your tax-avoidance games aren't such a good idea after all

Regarding the linked page about containers: a major gripe of mine is when people make content which includes "don't do this part in production!" - but then never bother to explain what the production equivalent is. If it's out of scope for your guide then fine, but at least provide some keywords and links.
