I’ve explained to you why the term exists, and why it matters. It refers specifically to application code in the context of horizontal scaling. Meanwhile, many popular databases do in fact allow you to do sharding in automated fashion. If you’re not aware of this, maybe time to learn a bit about databases.

Evidently you don’t understand what people mean when they talk about stateless backend, so let me explain. The point there is regarding horizontal scaling. If your backend code is stateful then it has user context in memory, and requests for a particular user session have to be handled by the same instance of the service. With a stateless backend all the context lives on the client, and the requests can be handled by any instance on the backend. So now you can spin up as many instances of the service as you need, and you don’t need to care which one picks up the request. The fact that you might be persisting some data to the db in the process of handling the request is neither here nor there. Hope that helps you.

High mortality rate is typically a negative factor in disease spread, but it’s somewhat nuanced. For example, stuff like incubation period plays a role as well. If it’s deadly in the end, but it takes a while for a person to get to that point, they can go on infecting a lot of other people before they realize they’re sick. The virus will also continue to mutate, so a less deadly variant might emerge that’s better at spreading. Very difficult to say what will happen at the moment unfortunately.

I’m expecting that even with 1-in-2 fatality rate we’ll see an initial spike where nobody believes it, before the reality starts to set in.

It’s obviously more of a problem when a government that actually has agency over you harvests your data. If you can’t even understand this, then you’re truly lost.

Indeed

I really can’t imagine people tolerating another lockdown, especially given that most people now think that the last set of lockdowns didn’t achieve much of anything in the end. I expect that we’re just going to let the next pandemic rip and take no measures at all.

It’s a respected mainstream publication, if you’re implying there are quality issues with their reporting then please substantiate that.

It was incredible to see how people immediately latched on to this, really shows how easy it is to do propaganda when it’s something people want to believe.

It’s so bad that even western media admits this, maybe try engaging with reality? nytimes.com/…/ukraine-military-recruitment.html

You mean the western backed regime in Ukraine that’s kidnapping people off the street and forcing them to fight in a proxy war?

Please explain to the class why you keep trying to paint posting factual information about the state of the world nefarious.
