For DevOps, it provides consistency for every CI run and production deployment, especially when a whole system needs to be shipped.

Monetize sovereignty.

By story logic, the henchmen really weren’t “true people”, but metaphors for environment difficulties. For example, a young adult watching superhero comics would think of homeworks, social media negativities, etc.

Aktually, for most Internet services in China today, one already needs a phone number to create an account, which is linked back to the national ID. So, there isn’t any anonymity to begin with.

It could be 101: the first a surprise, the next 100 to establish a meaningful statistical correlation.

Zen master says: the real issue resolution is within yourself.

Referenced by my favorite Philip K Dick novel VALIS, the symbol of early Christianity: Fish cannot carry guns.

That documentation sounds like marriage.

Or you can just simply slap your face. It has a similar sound effect.

I’d say it’s more like unplugged running…wait a minute…

That’s the boogaloo? I’ve heard so much about the scooter for two, electric boogaloo.

When dabbling in fencing and (watching) Historical European Martial Arts, I find parrying pretty satisfying IRL.

“allegedly written”

Neon sign, budget ver.

That was my first reaction. I didn’t find the global average spending number reported by the OP, but according to this page, the 2019 average spending of $15,500 per student (38% higher than OECD average) did consider purchasing power.

That’s agile for you.

According to the UK’s Labour Party’s report on worker co-operatives in 2017, the main difficulty is access to credit (capital). It makes sense since the model basically eliminates “outside investors”. It has to

1. Bootstrap with worker’s own investment, or
2. Get investment from credit unions, or
3. Have (national or local) government to back it up

Even in the above cases, the credit is often not large or cheap enough for the cooperatives to be competitive. (There are examples in the report that serve as exceptions, I highly recommend giving it a read.)

So at least from this, I’d think the appropriation of means of production would be more fundamental rather than being a simple result of some special way of organizing.

We all float down here.
