_Codemonkeyism

Intel feels so much like Boeing now.

I agree, I think airdrops with Stellar and a wallet on many developer computers could create the critical mass to more crypto applications.

I only have an 8 core iMac Pro worth 6k and to be frank, it crashes sometimes, it sometimes shows the beach ball and overall it's ok but I would have thought I'd get more for the price (compared to the MacBooks etc. I had over the last 15 years).

"He worries that once the Max is flying again, Boeing — scrambling to make up for the costly delays — will not have changed."

I'm not gold plating but I've learned to not compromise on code quality. There is a lower level I will not cross, like an engineer who will not build a car without seat belts.

How does it relate to ZeroTier (which I currently use for a lot of things, lately to connect to my NextCloud from my phone)

Too cheap and not sending early enough invoices, because it felt hard to do while we were still working together. Now I'm more expensive and send invoices right away. If there are troubles with payment I have a better lever and can also stop working with a client.

Innocence once lost can never be regained.

What I always found interesting how children in the US sound "shrill" to my European ear, I think children have much lower voices here in Europe (Germany). Anyone else with the same perception? Or is it just in my imagination?

You're right, I thought "tested" did include that.

Do you think the money is on those small islands? Or on Guernsey? Or the British Channel Islands? No, the money is in New York and London at the usual banks who earn money on fees and can work with the deposits. The banks on those islands don't have a data center, or a bank vault. They only legally have the money on paper, but "their" money is in the banks in NYC (Caribbean) and London (former Empire).

I'm not sure how a field of science can work without any established basics. Shouldn't there be a standard, thoroughly tested, agreed upon definition of "empathy" so one can build on top of that?

Die Nutella.

Sorry don't have any at hand, but I'm from Bavaria and my wife is from Brandenburg so our German gender usage sometimes differs.

Additionally in different parts of Germany the gender of many nouns is different.

I love to listen to Sophie Wilson, the inventor of the ARM instruction set - to me a real geek and hacker.

So what you say the main thing is, when I declare you a tyrant you are a tyrant.

And because they suppressed (non voting, poor) people in the UK didn't declare their king a tyrant it wasn't one for them.

<noirony>I would really be interested in case where 'A vigilant and engaged citizen body.' stopped tyranny.</noirony>

The UK was a tyranny at that time? How would you define tyranny then?

"The same thing that stops all tyranny. A vigilant and engaged citizen body."

Because I'm interested, what would be the top three situations where that happened that come to your mind?

Classic SO.

Reminds me of a book I've once had "End of Print".

Written on the WSJ site not a blog no less.

I use it.
