There is a daily mail video of a drone at the North Terminal Bus station. DM is hardly a good source, and I was sceptical at first but I'm 95% sure its the right location. The question is now, is the footage fake and is it from last week.
It would be great to tie this into a release pipeline, where the release process is actively keeping an eye on failure rates of that service, so that bad deploys could be halted or rolled back automatically.
I was thinking this could work really well when using production integration tests. A percentage of that traffic can be dynamically routed to the newly running services, allowing the release pipeline to ensure the service is functioning correctly before routing any real users.
I've been looking into this a bit, but put off by the fact that EU VAT for digital products isnt really being enforced upon US companies, so not sure there is much of a market for it. Also, as a brit I'm not sure how brexit might screw up the business model.
I really don't think there is any excuse for it this day and age especially when building sites from scratch. There are so many different techniques and technologies for doing zero downtime deploys, not to mention the numerous PaaS that will do it out of the box if you dont know how.
Would it not make sense for broadband router manufacturers to step up here, especially ISPs who provide routers to customers.
First of all, IoT devices really need to be connected on isolated vlans with very strictly controlled WAN capabilities. Obviously this already exists, but not in the fashion a layman, who wants to put their fridge on the wifi will understand. The average home routers need cleaner interfaces and clearer abstractions rather than the cruft that exists now.
Does your fridge really need to access the internet, and if it does, perhaps you could setup your router to only allow access at certain times, to a single host and with circuit breaker protections in case traffic has a signature that matches that of a DDoS attack. This circuit breaker pattern could be extended to all traffic running through the router, and provide the user with reports of potential infected devices and traffic hungry users.
No, but we are led to believe this wont be long. They recently got partial approval with full approval expected next year. Not bad for a startup that has only been going ~20 months in quite a slow industry.
Money is currently stored with a third party that do have a license, so there are some guarantees that money wont be lost.
A good open source alternative to Google Apps. Secure by default, amazing UI, spam filtering and tools that will configure the thing properly so not to get blacklisted.
I've watched about 30 minutes of this, and I am growingly disgusted by the TPP and the US government. I am a brit, and all though we aren't part of the TPP, we are still in the back pocket of the United States.
It's a shame that we rely so heavily on trade with the US, that we feel that we need to look past the so called "lobbying" and corruption in US politics, and implement such overbearing rules on behalf of Hollywood and others.
The stuff about the US putting Canada on "probation" and mandating that every 6 months Canada has to report back to the US "as if it was some kind of naughty student to the teacher" is just ridiculous.
