Current executives think it's a problem for the future executives.

I still think the future is working from home.

Bear in mind that Brazil is a poor country. Cashback and worldwide acceptance is not what 90% brasillians need.

You are right about convenience, but here, 1% fee makes a huge difference to make both ends meet.

You can give alms with pix, to show how widespread pix is.

COVID was a 2 year period in a century. It's way cheaper to assume this risk than pay a premium all the time.

The main issue here is political.

I bought the same Ray-Ban sunglasses model 15 years ago and 2 years ago. The older one is way better.

Cellphone is the opposite: the new one is way better.

So all in all, it's just capitalism: if quality sells more, people buy quality (whatever quality means). If cheaper sells more, companies cut costs.

I think the answer change from time to time.

With billions, can I be Batman?

As a São Paulo citizen, I really don't recommend cash due robbery. Privacy may be a 1st world problem, but here, assault is a real concern.

First a link about Texas building renewables and batteries to it's system.

Now this point and there is a third link about power shortages in USA.

Just wondering if it would be good to group all links about a topic. I know that there is no such feature here.

Good reading.

In my last job, the service mesh was responsible to do retries. It was a startup and the system was changing every day.

After a while, we suspect that some services were not reliable enough and retries were hiding this fact. Turning off retries exposed that in fact, quality went down.

In the end, we put retries in just some services.

I never tested neither retry budget nor deadline propagation. I will suggest this in the future.

Do companies want older people? In my experience, not so much, so even if you want it's not one side choice.

I don't think the argv was made with security in mind.

If we want something to be used in security field, the design since day 0 should consider it. Trying to retrofit something will break a lot of things.

TIL. Thank you.
