It should probably read corporate journalists are not journalists. To be one a journalist one must serve the truth but to remain employed by corporation means you have to accept some truths that aren't and reject others thar are.
I wouldn't be surprised to learn Azure was paid (either money or developer time) and this is happening for other products. I would think twice before using Azure if I was concerned about my usage being shared.
Use the minimal amount of resources and scale up. If you need mostly random don't force cryptographic level random. It adds unnecessary processor cycles and reduces speed.
Is all of your content pulled via javascript? Could a server side language prerendering the content be part of your solution. You can still use javascript for everything else just not the content.
A lot of people want a step by step guide with easy to understand rules and clear steps.
I read those types of guide books when I got started and many exist. When I tried to follow them in real life they missed so glossed over so many other problems or situations that can come up. The knowledge of local rules and past experiences and sound judgement was lacking. I found the best way to learn was from conversations in coffee shops / outside auctions from people who have been doing this for years.
This book tries to copy that style with a focus around specific topics that come up. Raw knowledge, warts and all.
Interesting point and in my case yes and all writing is attributed to the person who wrote it in print. And everyone got a book and a special private forum. In a way it was a community effort of mostly old timers who were there in the beginning.
I'm curious about your point of view. What is your take on these.
- If someone posts something in your forum. Can you legally repost in twitter saying.. so and so just posted?
- When you post in a public forum do you automatically assign the copyright as public domain by virtue of where you posted and who can see it?
- Facebook owns all of the content you post (pictures/posts/videos). Doesn't this apply to all/most sites with user generated content?
I created an ebook[1] and made about $2,000 in the real estate category. Getting it written, transformed into an ebook format and in the amazon / smashworld store altogether took a christmas break 1 1/2 weeks.
My secret was I didn't write more than 5% of the book. 95% came from discussion posts written over the years on one of my website forums.
I still get orders.. I'm still in the top 500 small business / real estate books in canada. This was written in the 2012 and lives on.
I would encourage everyone to publish at least one book. But don't actually write it yourself that's insane amount of work for the expected return.
It's one way to bias the interview towards extroverts. Based in the percentage of extroverts to introverts developers they will probably end up with less technically able development and the amount of meetings will be higher than average and meetings will be filled with people who need to add in something so meeting length will increase.
Should have more people wanting to come into the office.
Well not really. Most people buy coins because they believe the price will climb and never use them for buying. For the retailers who accept bitcoin many are in smaller countries where the law wouldn't apply and many semi-legimate uses (ordering weed by mail) would continue to accept payment this way because their activity is more illegal (carrys a bigger punishment) than the new bitcoin law would.
Assuming bitcoin is using carbon poluting sources. Some of the bigger miners in China use hydro/dam energy. The miners in Iceland are using geothermal.
Simple advise. Start with a 5 dollar droplet and increase ram / disk speed when required. If you reach 64 gigs consider spliting.
What I do is put my database on a droplet and my files on another and it can handles millions of requests. Put them on the same machine and I need to increase ram higher than the cost of multiple small droplets.
If you ever reach those limits consider setting up a load balancer.
The person could have lost a password. Been at a different machine. Works for reddit. First time poster / long time reader. Some people have been on this site so long they just like to play a game where they try to get to 500 karma as fast as possible. Then they start over and try to beat previous best time.
