   Those underlined headers hurt the eyes. Could you please switch to a different heading style, please? Maybe smallcaps? EDIT: And while you're listening: AWS documentation is a mess in the sense that it's way too unorganized; it

   AWS still doesn't support IPv6. Good to see them talking about HTTP/2. Waiting for AWS to embrace IPv6.

   I guess the fine print in the employment contracts of most companies says so. The degree of enforcement might vary, though.

   To elaborate, the things that often lead to unhappy workers also include: - Unknown expectations from the job - Little or no control over decisions that affect your job - Missing feeling of involvement The fair treatment bit is m

    Additionally, I'd recommend "Introduction to Functional Programming" [0] by Erik Meijer. Depending upon your areas of interest, you might also want to look into related open source projects and attempt to contribute. Chances

    If an organization or an individual were to be firm on two rules, shit would reduce drastically: 1. Effort of maintenance post-release not to exceed X times of development effort. Otherwise the current system warrants to be relooked at

    Yes, you do expect transparency from such service providers. It sucks when somebody starts to point you at their SLA when you ask them about outages. I'm looking at you, AWS.

    Odd that the amount of spam reduced. I've seen instances where individuals weren't even able to delete their accounts. Sounds funny, but it goes like: (1) you delete your account, (2) you receive a message from LinkedIn, (3) you

    Yes, but Google spam filters are too aggressive. It is worthwhile adding that once in a while I keep running into a message lying in Spam that ought to have been in Inbox.

    Is their spam filter deliberately design to be too conservative?

    This is yet another neat mechanism of giving up control. By using Google/Chrome, you inform Google of pretty much what you're doing. Now the same thing is being extended to ssh.

    With majority using Android devices, if Google were to MITM the traffic, you would never know about it. If Chrome can include unique identifiers, what could one say of Android?

    Yes, but one shouldn't say that the move is for the general upliftment or rather for the benefit of mankind at large. It's obvious that the returns from these sorts of investment are much higher.

    While Google isn’t targeting those using its Wi-Fi with advertising, it’s aiming to get more people online and betting that they will use the company’s services and see more ads. Essentially, Google is happy that those who would
