   CrashPlan removed all my data since I wasn't keeping my disks online. Fair enough -- it's a backup solution, not remote storage. Still, I'd rather have paid for the latter in the first place and saved myself the trouble of ha

   The AWS web console is a pain point. I had a particularly frustrating experience once where attempting to restore a Glacier storage class file in S3 silently failed due to permission issues (I had forgotten to assign permissions to the buck

   The whole team bands together and gives your teammate their full support, so that he/she is promoted into management as soon as possible.

   Not impressed by your comment at all. If you think that the age of Nikita Popov or Andrea Faulds is any indicator of their "competence" I suggest you actually take a look at their contributions.

   Redundancy for package registries? Sounds like a good thing to me ;)

    Turns out that database owners are able to modify their own databases, who would've thought.

    They're alluding to the fact that Gbuy sounds similar to a Hokkien profanity :)

    I'm confused now, earlier you recommended patches over rebuilding continuously from source, but this seems like the opposite?

    I'm guessing they meant to write "patches".

    I think you're pointing out the idiosyncrasies of English here. "Mouth" is both a noun and a verb. The past tense of "eat" is "ate", not "eated". No wonder English is so difficult to learn.

    Sleep paralysis is why I go to sleep on my side rather than my back every night. I no longer fear it since I can consistently awaken myself now, but I'd rather not deal with the annoyance.

    I'm not sure why you're so obsessed with the "mainland Chinese perspective". The Michelin star wasn't awarded for pure-bloodedness. Also, try telling the Taiwanese that they're "less Chinese" because
