    These are not the only two knee surgeries that exist, by any stretch.

    If I was talking about every single kind of knee surgery, I would have said so.


    This should be the end of it, but you went on and constructed a personal attack from your faulty assumptions. I think that merrits some more “defense” on my part.

    When there is a statement without an explicit quantifier, the quantifier becomes ambiguous. Assuming the all-quantifier in this case was your personal decision. Since you construct an insulting argument from this faulty and intentional assumption, I can only assume malice. If the ambiguity was a problem, you could have simple asked. Or better yet: Do what everyone else did and click the link. If you still thought, the ambiguity was an issue, you could have just pointed it out, instead of making an insult out of it.

    Please don’t spread medical misinformation

    Tell that to someone who actually spreads medical misinformation. Not only was my joke correct, I even provided a credible source, which is far beyond what you can expect from a comment on a shitposting community.

    it’s not helpful

    the information, that many knee-surgeries only work through placebo-effect is very helpful. In fact my simplified and sensational (and true) claim probably made many people click on the link, which helped spread the message even further.

    Also I think it sets a good example to provide sources for all interesting claims, even if it is on a shitposting sub.






  • I agree, that good cloud engineers can save costs in the cloud. But I also think good non-cloud engineers, can save much much more.

    When you are rewriting your entire stack to leverage cloud performance, you could probably spend a similar effort for a rewrite that increases regular performance by a similar factor.

    RE: Containers, even if you DO go that route…

    I was under the impression, that stateless stuff without containers requires a strong vendor login (aws lambda, google functions, azure function). Are you saying, I could do stateless without vendor-lockin and without containers and without kubernetes? This is news to me. Please point me to some resources
