Correct this is the best path forward. Night time is typically when there is less traffic and we should be able to at least utilize that for autonomous transportation between distribution centers. Then slowing keep upping the advancement as

No. One form of transportation doesn't have to exist for everything. Rail is the long haul and trucking is the last mile. Autonomous trucking should start out with its own dedicated part of the highway between distribution centers. We

From your [2] source even the first line is just a numbers game. Organized retail crime costs retailers more than $700,000 for every $1 billion in sales on average... Guess that reads better than 0.07%. It is interesting to see t

I see a clear evolution (and career) path for Sysadmins here. From ssh-ing and rebooting machines to operating higher-level tools and influencing the business. Is this what people think sysadmins and operations do all day? Any place i&#x2

I'm going to be a bit pedantic and say fault and mistake are not equal in the message they convey. Hans says he has 'made a mistake' which is not the same as saying 'I'm at fault.' In the end it might be proven

by ZeroSolstice 3y ago
I agree. If a part failed or broke unexpectantly it makes no sense to say it was `your fault` or `you made a mistake`. The goal is the solve the issue at hand and following the representative's instructions to either fix it or prove th

Any company I've worked for has a 60 - 90 day trial period as part of employment. Most that I've seen, never use it due to fear of being sued or it not really being a long enough period to assess how someone will work out.

Isn't this just a helpful tell though? If the interviewer isn't creative enough to speak off script in their field or the company doesn't allow a bit of flexibility in interviews what makes you think they would do interesting

I'm specifically talking about refunds not purchases as in US only a few states have laws relating to returns and refunds.[1] Otherwise its left up to the retailer to set the policy. Most purchasers are not making large amounts of inte

I don't know many businesses that would perform processes that don't make them money. Even if we use your example of next business day what happens on a Friday where the refund isn't processed until Monday or Tuesday? Is cust

"Fed delays have cost consumers hundreds of billions in overdraft fees, check-cashing fees and late fees, said Aaron Klein, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution." Why would banks be incentivized to speed up this process? T

I agree with your point here. It is unclear to me how "lack of sleep" was derived from your initial comment. I'm hoping wiseowise can expand upon their mostly generic comment to clear the confusion.

by ZeroSolstice 3y ago
Can you expand on your definition of "lack of sleep"? Since sleep is something that isn't uniformly measurable and is both relative and subjective to the individual what are you measuring to consider it lacking? Sleep doesn&#

The attack you are suggesting is not commensurate to the types of blogs and information that _need_ HTTPS. If you are operating at a level where your personal blog can have all possible transit paths compromised by a third-party such that t

I'm sure there is some nuance to what someones static site is serving but someones blog doesn't need to be HTTPS. If they are offering downloads you can provide checksums or verify their data through other sources or contacting th

What example would you have of an ISP or third-party injecting an ad or tracker within the HTTP response? I've certainly seen the DNS query hijacking and while HTTPS will encrypt the transmission, at the ISP level they already have you

Was there any additional ideas or insights you wanted to expand upon? I'm interested in what operational view points you have which would require more than 50 SRE's.

50 SRE's sounds like they could keep borg running. There really isn't that much details on what borg is made up of outside of a 2015 research paper[1]. Just to address the parts you laid out. 1. Keep Borg running What would entail

Do you have a reference for when the Internet as a whole was supposed to cut over to IPv6 only? There are plenty of organizations that have transition mandates but those are self imposed and would easily be delayed for other monetary busine
