Pi4 2GB with power source, SD card, case, fan is like $100. You can have nice Atom MiniPC for that. Or old PC from ebay...

> what organisation in all seriousness gives a junior developer the access rights to drop a production database

It is pretty normal. Someone with university education, should know how to use a SQL client! I personally would fire such person as well. Carelessly copy&paste and execute code from some website is a huge redflag! Getting rid of such person on their trial period is very cheap....

Also many services are not mission critical. DB drop could mean short downtime, and restoration from backup (or Kafka stream), and with little loss revenue.

> Will surely be massive wastage though - probably up to 90%..... One legit criticism

Would you agree that huge wastage (up to 90%) is a reason for legit criticism?

It is just another excuse to print more money. What Biden is doing now, is just "lets print a few trillions and buy some solar panels in China!".

For mass reindustralization, you need reforms and technically skilled people. For example you will need way more oil and cheap energy. You also must stop shitting on imaginary "white men", and offer them free industrial-tech education. Army did that quite a lot, but that avenue is closed now.

> they spend 30 million over what they generate

That is my point. I do not understand how they total costs can be over 30M. It is mostly static content that begs for CDN cache. It is also not mission critical.

There is very simple monetization strategy: ads, cut bloat, move content moderation staff to India!

Tumblr has an army of content creator that work for free. It is a site that host text and images. How they even spend 30 million per year? Maybe on organizing "stuff convention", SF real estate and so on... Cut the bloat!

Can we say that women who ovulate, are more horny and more likely to orgasm?

> The diet worked — people lost 10.6 lbs on average over only four weeks — and we had basically no idea why

I do fasting a lot. Doing diet for weight loss is a huge red flag. Human body gains and loses water very easily. Change of 10 lbs (in any direction) is rounding error, after changing a diet.

Major reason to do potato diet are health benefits. It decreases inflammation, and gives your gut chance to heal. It may improve sugar digestion, liver and so on. Basically any junk and toxins you eat normally, go away on potato only diet.

AFTER you become healthy, you may try to lose weight.

Stats give that to around 15%, it is not an outlier.

Side effect from hormonal pills is not some sort of conspiracy. Go to feminist forum and ask about it.

Contraceptive pill simulates pregnancy at hormonal levels. That includes partner selection and preferences. Imagine your partner is on a pill while you date, you get married and try for kids. She stops pill and there is a huge change in her chemistry .

It also stops ovulation. It plays a huge role in female sexuality, to the point some people have trouble to orgasm.

Not really. Dogs often topple over garbage bin, and spill content on streets. Some countries use garbage bags, dogs break those. Without dogs, there is a good chance garbage just stays in bins, and gets actually collected!
