As someone who has worked with wireless before, I am definitely unsurprised

But this is seriously intense work!

Ok, serious thought:
what if, I make "doomsday storage lockers" for doomsday preppers to rent to put all their gear in for the end of the world

Then I can make money, and if doomsday happens, I have the gear of a bunch of preppers

Apparently there are a ton of people who didnt know about @Nestle's evil practices: They use slave labor in their African cocoa plants.
A lawsuit against Nestlé was allowed to proceed in October, a lawsuit I bet you've never heard of.
Dont support them.

My parents weren't wealthy, just super-organized and frugal at the right time in Western history to capitalize on it. They had five kids on two part-time teachers salaries, have a house in their name they finished paying about 10-15 years ago, and are enjoying a good civil servant retirement because they could switch back to full-time schedule once we grew older just a few years before they both retired under 60 years old.

You can't do that anymore.

This is the problems with complex systems
Using Ubuntu in prod means that updating might change python versions or something without warning, not updating means not getting patches

This means that one should use smaller and more consistent pieces in prod, rather than larger ones
Me: I know I can't afford it, but I really want a drone

Me: What's up
@FireflyLeigh: I'm just thinking about your birthday present and you should open it early

The law allows my employer to submit paperwork for employment insurance late. My employer has decided to do this. So I will be missing a few weeks of parental leave payments I guess? Which, I can afford, but others can't.
Why not banking servers written in Excel stored in github?

I don't think so, the comments seem to give away the original intention: GitHub is the place where cryptocurrency software is being developed, so he's pitting the banks with their fiat money against engineers with their cryptocurrency, hence the "place your bets".

It's inane from start to finish but it makes more sense than your explanation.

oh! Worse! I missed that and that's even grosser
