You'll need to do a lot of traffic analysis to make a cost/benefit analysis of purchasing international capacity. Transit is likely to be cheaper until you get big enough to hire someone to do this analysis for you. At that point,

Don't confuse outsourcing under the guise of consulting, with real consulting.

His attack came on the 29th April - yet there were Snort signatures on the 21st April (42329, 42332, 42340) for DoublePulsar, and before that 14 March (41978) for one of the vulnerabilities. Despite his much lauded protection, I find it od

Sadly I read this as a thinly veiled attempt to argue for Congress to fund anti-bioitic research. Why? Well the article practically spells out the why: pharma is not incentivised to bring new anti-biotics to market, but they can create lots

I'd suggest the key difference is that one is a conscious decision, often taken with prior thought, and often some proactive mental preparation - that could be as simple as reading scripture. The other is typically unconscious, often e

Because if you read the article and their website they are focusing on USA first, with a couple of overseas experiments.

A few Sony Vaio models had that feature circa 2011 (HDMI in to display on the 16" WXGA (?) 1080p screen). I was very close to getting one.

Odd. Admittedly my sample size is low (2), but some level of private health insurance was offered at all the places I've worked in the UK.

I think you're mostly comprehensive there. You missed out two things though: they care about their bonus, and secondly, how that bonus compares to their peers (which could be summarised as "their bonus").

ROFL. Sorry, but this story is true in every Fortune 1000, except maybe a very small number of technology companies. Why? Line of business team X demands product Y, that only runs on prem on DB Z. Done.

Why are they confounding? The other manufacturers offload that cost onto the dealerships, who provide show rooms, sales staff, service staff, etc. AFAIK Tesla takes this on themselves. Do Telstra split the costs of new leases, refits, trans

This is: "Split the index in your application code." And then do your joins, in your application code.

Ingress has some heuristics, but is not infallible. Plenty of cheaters have figured out how to avoid detection. It is fairly clear that there are no such heuristics in PoGo. The reality is, Niantic is a small company, and does not have the

Clue: it's not about the code. This was the point of the original article.

Except that Uber controls the relationship with the consumer. For Facebook, using open source to increase internet density is really just a PR stunt, as they won't own anything with the customer. That said, their WhatsApp investment is

I agree. Crazy. To quote: "In many cellular network deployments, the cost of the civil and supporting infrastructure (land, tower, security, power, and backhaul) is often much greater than the cost of the cellular access point itself.&

Yeah, that's somewhat related to sensitivity analysis that's already in the list. Though I think I'd agree that it's technically a different model, but related.

A lot of the commands they documented have become obsolete or out of fashion. E.g. Apache 1, BIND, sendmail, cgi-bin, ifconfig, etc.
