Nor would it really work in practice. Reducing the population would reduce demand (eaters), which would eventually lead to a reduction in supply (Farmers). Moreover, wrt to the 72 days raised by ggpp, one would just shrink the surplus to 7

DC is one of the only places that has competitive FTTH in the country - the same place all the regulators are saying there isn't a problem. Surely no coincidence? I miss my FiOS - I don't miss the weather :-)

Typically you're forbidden from increasing your equity loan on a margin call - closes are completely fine (So you can buy shorts, or sell longs, but the inverse is against the rules). I've never used robinhood, but I've been

In the US, if you don't have symmetric streams, the average high-speed stream is 6mbps/100mbps up/down. The next milestone is still going to discriminate against content producers, IT workers, and software engineers. Compoun

Sigh. I was with you right until the end. Of _course_ those in power believe themselves smart enough to avoid the rules they wrote - they want to be secure, and know the presence of very real threats both within and outside of the US. I&#

Not really - to sudo, your shell would have to be setuid - and constantly fork stuff as you to get user permissions. Alternatively your shell could maintain a separate process for privileged access, but that puts a whole lot of your securi

Most of it is - your instance ID, network position, etc, will never change after boot (or 'start' if you stop it) - so caching it is just fine. There's very little that will change on a running instance except of course, the

The issue with that approach is ensuring the suppressed are represented. When it's black vs white, you can oversample one and be done. However, if there's any winner take all built into the system, there's a strong incentive

This is a bit of a strawman argument though. JSON is rarely used in a generic form - but instead as a format between endpoints (servers, clients, whathaveyou). When you control the server, you control the API - so random UTF-8 magic crap?

If cash is your only metric, I agree. When I'm negotiating for equity at a startup, what the "big boys" paid is a good metric for my expectations on equity+cash comp -- I understand you can't give me "big boy"

There's also no unlimited downside in finance -- eventually you can't take out more debt, can't pay the interest, and default (creating counter party risk). I suppose net across the system, you could inflict more downside to

At your pricepoint, you're looking a white-label reseller; There's no margin at a full-sized server for 600$, so there's not a lot of interest in selling them. I'd go back to why you believe you need a physical server a

PID1 also comes with powers over capabilities and (in some cases) cgroups. You can do much of that with FSCaps, etc - but to control the bounding set, you have to be pid1. So - if you want init to be able to limit what processes can do, y
