Yeah I wouldn't say it failed its just that there wasn't a financial motive to move towards IPv6. As more networked devices and the device data itself becomes important moving to IPv6 will follow. Residential ISP's and some c

I think that if you are in a position where you are hosting your own infrastructure in a data center these wouldn't be difficult issues to address and are the bare minimum in running that type of operation. You can front any website wi

I'm sure there are a few different store layout concepts over time. However you don't need a membership at Costco to eat at the food court or use the pharmacy, purchase alcohol in some states so if we applied the "Ikea"

I'm not sure what you are hinting at by saying "like a potential criminal who may be using someone else's card." Were you using someone else's card or not? Its a membership based store and your card is what validate

Its a wholesale club. Replacing an item at full price would be the complete opposite purpose of the store and membership. Its not about the available supply of a product, its about Costco using its purchasing power to buy the product at a c

Its a wholesale club. The items aren't in permanent locations because they are making purchases in bulk when the price is advantageous to do so. This means they won't always have the same items all the time. The items you mention

Yes this is by design. The company is being reimbursed through insurance or given a tax write-off[1] for documented stolen items. As long as they are showing that they put reasonable efforts in to deter theft. This could be a loss preventio

I would venture the reasoning for this is that the system that handles inventory was never designed with external customers in mind. Most inventory tracking is done at the register/PoS when the purchase is made. The inventory is autom

My rough assumption is that this is by design. If you can't find the local talent you can justify H-1B[1] and L-1B[2][4] visas. For the L-1B I would imagine the TSMC North America[3] would suffice for the criteria of "enables a U.

Thats a good point. Looks like RedHat considered this and offer free company/professional developer RHEL images for non-production use[1]. In 2021 they allowed zero-cost licensing for individuals[2]. [1] https://developers.r

You are most certainly correct and I suppose without the actual numbers its a bit of speculation. My main point was that there is no additional cost, even if you exceed the shrink budget. The losses are all written off because with a loss p

Right, but I think the OP's question is why are you using RHEL compat instead of just getting licensed RHEL. In your example a company is already fine with paying full price for major engineering applications why wouldn't you do t

So if stability is a strict requirement why are you dependent on an OS that you have no contractual obligation with? I mean if the community OS model was working for the CentOS team why go under the RedHat umbrella? My guess is going to be

Why would you be dependent upon CentOS(RHEL compat) if you are in those industries? If you need certification and LTS then pay for it by purchasing RHEL licenses. It seems very silly for people to be getting upset now that a free OS hasn&#x

You are correct on this observation. The answer is most people/organizations don't actually know if they need to be RHEL compatible. Outside of any places that have a compliance requirements, where saying you are RHEL compatible b

1. Yeah the jails item was addressed above with Debian being able to run docker so don't go with FreeBSD for that. Again, you don't have to run the same OS for everything. Its not like homogenous environments haven't existed
