Postgres is pretty resilient, in my experience. If it can’t recover from a hardware failure, I’d bet no other DB would be stable on such hardware. It’s surprising how Linux can soldier on on an almost dead disk, as long as it managed to boot.

A guy from work (millennial) has smartphone, tablet, and gaming consoles, but no computers at home. He works in IT tech support, and is really good, but the only computer he uses is the one at work. WTF.

I suspect that from time to time, he does need things only a proper computer can do, but he simply uses the work computer.

Let OP decide. Maybe they put the real life that feels tragic in perspective, and it could help with depression.

I think moon dust doesn’t qualify as an allergen because breathing sharp glass dust is not something people are supposed to do without harm. IIRC ithings that are intrinsically irritant, like smoke or pepper, don’t qualify as allergens.

How young a child? My cactus could outthink any newborn.

In an ideal world, investors (and big shareholders) would be interviewed to see if they’re committed to the thing they’re investing on. “Have millions make me billions” or being a nepo baby shouldn’t be valid reasons. This is why every thing they touch converges to enshittification.
