The price saddens me. The $6K base is twice the base of the 2013 Mac Pro when it was released. Some quick spec-ing for a somewhat-equivalent DIY build gives somewhere around $3K. The build I was already spec-ing for my next workstation has

DNSSEC doesn’t really do anything against a BGP attack, since it’s redirecting IPs. So even if the DNS record is signed the same IP goes somewhere else.

Well, it protects against the DNS server itself being redirected. But it doesn’t do anything for IPs that were in the DNS answer being redirected.

This isn’t about G-Suite, though, so I’m fairly certain the support plan you’ve linked will not be useful for a Google Play dev account.

Plenty of them don’t require an internet connection. My Philips Hue and Harmony hubs are both on a VLAN which blocks all outbound traffic (save for MDNS reflection across LAN subnets so they can still be discovered from other subnets).

The biggest problem is indeed cost. Installing platform doors on the platforms throughout the system has been estimated in the past at US$1 million per station (US$400–500 million) in 2012 [1] and US$1 billion in 2013 [2]. But those estimat

The object is still passed by value, however the object itself contains references, which may be mutated. If objects were pass by reference then you’d end up with {a: 2} at the end: let a = {a: 1} function foo(a) { a =
