Argo Workflows


More like a SaaS that I can use without setting up my own infrastructure. I guess one could turn Argo Workflows into such an SaaS.


False, it was tapped in 2016. I also think it was tapped in 2020 but am unable to confirm, they atleast plan to withdraw again in 2022.

The only realistic way to short tether is to take a DeFi Tether loan and use some other stablecoin (You must trust that it's peg will hold longer than USDT's) as collateral.


1. Females evolve to detect males with the bad genes. Population will dip but recover. By opening this evolutionary pathway we could enhance the mosquitoes in unintended ways.

2. Some males will evolve genes which disable the sterilization gene. By opening this evolutionary pathway we could enhance the mosquitoes in unintended ways.


Populations are always mutating at the same rate and selection is always occurring no matter what you do.


Did you read the article? The Norwegians claim that one of the health workers died.


I meant to write “confirmed deaths”, sorry. Updated my comment.

“confirmed” might seem like nitpicking but it’s widely speculated that the actual death count for COVID is much higher than the confirmed number too.


I will enjoy 16 GiB of RAM, this is an already solved problem.


Do you want SI units or not?

Changing to gibibytes does very little - the users confused by 1024 do not know about the alternate prefixes.

Furthermore, if you just add the "i" to all measurements, then you have accomplished nothing with regards to SI prefix proliferation. Everything but one dialog in a single OS will still use 1024, and HDD manufacturers will still use 1000.

I say this because most regular folks don’t even know what a gigabyte is so asking them to understand what a gibibyte is does not really “solve the problem” of consumer understanding.


The xkcd isn't really relevant here, there are only 2 competing standards here and the proposal is to pick the other one.


There were two standards (different prefix definitions) - the kibi/mibi/... line of prefixes was made as a solution.

So now there are three standards.


This is not the case everywhere in Europe such as in Norway and Iceland where the 1st floor is generally considered to be the ground floor. It seems to be ambiguous in Sweden.


An amazing feature of the windows file picker that i hardly ever see mentioned is that you can simply paste in a url into the name field and it will automatically download it to tmp and refer to the file.


Something to be considered is that today's population is on average older than in 1968 and therefore there are more people vulnerable to respiratory illnesses than ever(*atleast before COVID19).


So are you saying the 1968 flu was worse, because per capita across the world it killed as many, or up to three times as many, people in a younger world? (so far, covid19 is not gone yet)

It was pretty bad. The flu has all the long term complications for some people that covid does - the lung problems, heart swelling, brain problems, etc.

I talk to people who were alive in 1968. It just wasn't really on anyone's radar. Rarely made headlines in the U.S.


I mostly agree but it can be nice to see your code doing something actionable and visual rather than the alternative more traditional approach to learning programming, printing to the terminal.
