It does seem this was done to bring GBP/USD pricing back to parity with EUR/USD and is only an issue if you resided in the UK and need to spend GBP. The SP-32 server was 48.99 GBP which is 60.65 USD via ovh.co.uk while the same se

When I did a ProctorU test for Epic earlier this year I was instructed to tear my scrap paper up and to then throw the scraps into the air. It wasn't until after I did that was I told by the proctor that they were "just kidding&qu

I colocated with a sister company of theirs for a year and a half and I found them to be very reliable. Vultr provides free DDoS protection in their piscataway location but if you do not require that I don't see a reason to use them.

With how versatile the AWS ecosystem is and the quality of the Amazon brand this has the potential to absolutely demolish most of the small time VPS providers. Unless you provide a niche such as DDoS protection or PCI/HIPAA compliant h

You must have excess bandwidth in order to absorb the flood or your upstream transit provider(s) need to filter the attack.

Because that is when the immigration act of 1965 was passed.

I can't think of a single reputable company that I would be interested in working at in a SDE role where they do not conduct data structure and algorithm intensive interviews. If you want to work at a brand name company as a developer

The UK didn't really have mass shooting incidents all that frequently even before their bans. The only two I can think of are Hungerford and Dunblane, which were spaced out over nine years. Additionally, the vast majority of the incide

Outside of Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, and maybe ETH Zurich I would not consider European education as viewed favorably by employers in the US. I'd say it would typically be equivalent to an unknown state school at best, especially fo

It seems I misread the question, TLER is what typically differentiates an enterprise hard disk from a consumer hard disk. The primary differentiator between an enterprise SSD and consumer SSD has typically been write endurance.

The main difference is enterprise drives support time limited error recovery, this is a feature that allows for reliable use in conjunction with a hardware RAID controller.

Speaking of the prestige issue that WhitneyLand brought up, it seems that both of the featured engineers who are working at a "Big 4" software company attended top schools. One seems to have gone to Harvard and the other attended

I'd be willing to bet money on the fact that anyone who got a job at a top consulting firm or an investment banking job at a bulge bracket bank was not hired primarily as a result of a Udacity degree. Hiring pipelines and signaling are

These interview training programs seems to be really reminiscent of coding bootcamps and appear to have grown rapidly in a very short period of time. I think I'd almost prefer interviewees being judged based on the schools they attende

I'm pretty sure the acceptance rate for those applying for jobs at retailers such as Best Buy are lower than the admission rates of many top graduate programs so the acceptance rate only tells part of the story. The barrier to even app

They're referred to as NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) in the UK. As you mentioned, there's quite a few in countries like the US that don't leave their house often due to gaming addictions. I've seen man

Hetzner announced this a couple weeks ago on their German language forums. What's concerning is they still have not stated their filtering capacity and the bandwidth and throughput protection levels being provided. If it's only 5

OVH's DDoS protection is the real deal, they do not simply null route your IP like many other providers do.

I colocate and rent services from providers who offer DDoS filtering and put all my websites behind CloudFlare. OVH's protection is actually an excellent value, when I used to help run a game server provider they were mitigating 20 gbi

I'd forgotten computer science was only taught in Ivy League schools and top 15 universities. I think at quite a few companies this is certainly the case.

My understanding is you can actually take the bar exam in several states without having attended law school. Regulations can always be changed, I don't see groups or the government pushing to liberalize training requirements and allow

Why does the government think software development jobs can be done by the equivalent of people who have gone to a trade school for one semester? I don't see the government pushing finance career or lawyer boot camps. I wonder how the

I don't understand why anyone bothers to send abuse emails for port scans. Just block the scanning source and move on, they are far too frequent to be concerned about.
