I realize Jeff's just being...poetic, but really it's just an excuse to buy toys. Spend your money on what makes you happy. If more gadgets, or that 6th purse, or 20th pair of shoes does that, great. If you want to define [part of] yourself by your possessions, do that. But don't judge others by the lack of theirs.
A calorie isn't a calorie. The impact that 100 calories of vodka has on your body vs, say, 100 calories of Kale is significant. The body uses different strategies to break down different types of molecules. There can be toxins. There can be impact on the gut flora. Not to mention the impact that these all have on the feeling of "fullness" (which the article mentions).
With their supposed interest in expanded outside of China, does anyone know if they are hiring? To me it is, by far, the most interesting startup right now.
I strongly disagree with it, but it's been stated a few times that it's ok to use downvote if you disagree (1). This is certainly not a new thing around here...
21 character reset was generated via 3 separate functions each generating 7 characters each. 2 of these were old and weak, resulting in a URL that could be brute forced.
Once discovered, they analyzed 3 years worth of logs to see who was exploited (not clear how they matched it..maybe scanning for brute forces?) and found 3 sites all related to bitcoin.
The weakness in the algo has been resolved by using a 2 real random functions to generate 64 random characters
As a bad but persistent cook, I'm convinced eating healthy is generally cheaper. A lot of the healthier food I eat is cheap: legumes, [sweet] potatoes and other root vegetables, broccoli, bananas, oranges, water, eggs, oats, frozen vegetables (spinach!), brown rice, tomatoes (canned if not locally cheap). I think people intentionally mix up expensive with more work...
A nice piece which stands in stark contrast to the alarmist and shallow FUD that so often accompanies this topic.
It's amazing how little we know about nutrition and biology. A lot seems to come down to common sense: breast feeding is good, exposure to microbes is good, being overweight is bad.
Hopefully the era of tonsil-removing and antibiotics overdosing is behind us
Thanks for the explanation. Hopefully we can agree that it still puts the US in a precarious public spotlight...not sure that the public will make as detailed a distinction as appears to be required.
Does the US risk being seen as a dog with a loud bark but no bite here? If you're going to make pronouncements that hacking will be considered an act of war (1), don't you kinda paint yourself into a corner when you get hacked?
Depending on what side of Hanlon's razor you fall, the only conclusion I get from this is that they are either incompetent or dishonest. I have a very hard time believing that this issue remained unknown to them for years.
As for the post, it's pretty much just documentation. I didn't see any apology. And the only promise of a better tomorrow is a vague "Working to better support concurrent-request Rails apps on Cedar".
I didn't realize NuGet let you do remote path import. Nor that it was around in 2004. Nor that it's part of the C# language spec.
Goroutine + Channels are vastly different than the TPL. The comparison is so far off that I can't even come up with a clever analogy. There's more to concurrency than threads, and more to communication than locks.
Was curious what happened if you inhaled it. Nothing specific on their site, but it does say:
The coating has been found to be safe for use in nonfood contact areas
of food processing plants. The coating meets FDA and USDA regulations for those
types of applications.
The cost can be so out of whack that it can become cheaper to hire talent. Two things make this truer: the person might have spare time to do other things, and sensitivity to things that PaaS are poor at: raw processing speed, memory or SSDs.
I've seen it over and over again with SaaS: server monitoring, logs, statistics, ...
We had an internal fight recently about how to manage our logs. Group A wanted to spend thousands a month on Splunk. Group B spent a weekend setting up logstash + kibana and deploying it in production.
Server monitoring? Nagios. Stats? statsd+graphite. Even if you have to outsource setting it up, it'll probably be cheaper from the very first month.
