Surely this product should be removed from sale by Amazon until the manufacturer can investigate?

Excellent, will look forward to testing it out when it's available in eu-west-1. We'd like to use some of the new features in postgres 9.4 but our production DBs on RDS are stuck on 9.3 at the moment.

Wonder if it's possible to use this to upgrade Amazon RDS instances? At the moment you can't upgrade an existing postgres 9.3 RDS instance to 9.4 without dumping all the data and importing it into a new 9.4 RDS instance.

I've not done any measurements in terms of latency but from my experience an agent on the host will ask the docker daemon to start a new container in the order of seconds after making an API request to ECS that calls for an additional

We've been using EC2 Container Service for a few months now and at first glance it appears great but we've ran into quite a few problems using it: - You can only bind 1 port and 1 ELB to a service. This means, for example, if you

Why not both? We use vagrant to create our docker environment - a 3 machine CoreOS cluster. This is so we accurately represent our production environment. We then use our production docker image(s) with some more development appropriate con

We use vagrant on our dev machines to spin up a CoreOS cluster. Could use something like boot2docker but we prefer the dev environment to mirror production as close as possible.

What is the purpose of reserving your free upgrade? Is there any advantage or is it just some kind of capacity planning tool for Microsoft?

Looks interesting but seems to be lacking a bit in the mobile number lookup department. The current service we use for mobile numbers can provide: - Is the phone number not only valid in terms of syntax but a number actually registered to a

Sorry, made a typo. Nominet are not a registrar, they are the domain registry for .uk domains. Similar to how Verisign are the registry for .com domains.

I like the approach taken by Nominet (.uk domain registry). If you are an individual and you're not trading via your website you can hide your personal details from whois. However, companies and trading individuals have to display it.

Seems Chrome has addressed the issue with incognito mode - if you open the page in incognito mode you get a different code.

It claims to support Chip & PIN (EMV) but I don't see how this works. EMV is designed so that you can't clone a card and in practice is it impractical to attempt to clone a card that uses EMV. The only way I could imagine it

In relation to the second part of the article regarding lost messages it would be interesting to see the same test done but with HA queues: http://www.rabbitmq.com/ha.html I might be wrong but I'd suspect that it might

There is a composer.json and composer.lock file in the repository. All you'd need to do to download all the dependencies is have composer installed and run "composer install".

My experience with Google Apps is when you create a new user the first time they log in they are presented with the T&Cs they have to agree to before they can use the account.

Chrome Canary has experimental support for DirectWrite which should make your fonts, and text in general look much nicer. See the issue here: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=25541 For deta

Consider this. Suppose I want to phone someone who lives in Japan and I live in the UK. Japan is +9 hours ahead of UK local time (GMT). Therefore I know if I phone slightly before lunch then I'll be phoning them in the evening. Now sup

In the UK a Current Account is basically equivalent to a US checking account. So your average day-to-day account normally with a debit card, cheque book and easy access. It might also offer an overdraft facility. Typically you'll get z

Does anyone know if it was pre-programmed with the course and made minor on the fly corrections or was able to complete the course independently in real time?

That's not my point though, I'm talking about what you see when you visit for the first time. If you visit the site for the first time, like I just have, you have no idea what it is. You are just looking at a large image with some

It's not a complaint and it might equally be a problem with Chrome Canary itself and have zero to do with the site. However, I'd personally find it useful to know if my project was working in pre-release browsers, especially if it

I think it could do with a little bit of information on the first page to tell you what it actually is. If it was not a highly voted link from HN I'd most likely not bothered to actually figure out what it is. Also in Chrome canary it

I think this depends where you live and your consumer protection laws. While I've never requested a refund I know several people in Europe who have had successful refunds.

It is a open source project. They sell support, but elasticsearch itself is licensed under the Apache license. Just click overview if you want to kniw what it is, I'm not sure what you are clicking on that requires registration. Perhap
