How are they going to decide the portion of the money that goes to each writer? If it's based on portion of page views, we're back to encouraging clickbait--but now we're paying for it! I'd pay the $5/month if they

Interesting that this post references the CIA Wikileaks publication, but does not explicitly say that the exploit was found via those leaks. It would be very big news if that were the case. Major news outlets such as the New York Times[0] h

I work at an indie ISP. One of the biggest growth opportunities I've ever had was when my job gave me a bare-metal server in one of our datacenters. It was sitting in the junk pile, with a cash value of maybe $700 if we were to sell it

I have to agree when it comes to the business perspective. I can't imagine how Docker is going to survive financially. I use Docker at work, and I 1) don't have any loyalty to their brand and 2) try as hard as I can to abstract aw

Either, but usually features. When it comes to building a brand new app, you need to break it into multiple large projects. The first one might be "create a new Cordova app with just a login page", since bootstrapping all the Cord

I think the two suggestions I made are more reasonable than claiming AWS "lied". It's understandable that your customer would be confused seeing the blue "i" instead of something yellow. But that doesn't mean t

These criteria fall short and are an example of begging the question[0]. To say that "they are a good team member" as an answer to "how do I know if they're doing a good job", doesn't really help. I have worked

I feel for the OP, I really do. Have been through this many times before. But it is going too far to call this a "lie" on the part of AWS. If you talk to any AWS customer support representative, or read their docs, they are very c

What a blow to Amazon Quicksight! I was just saying a couple of months ago what a game-changer the Quicksight pricing would be[0]. Next time data visualization comes up for me, my first move will be to compare these two options and see if Q

That's a fair argument. Since this page loads as fast as AMP it should get the same nice thunder bolt. But that's different from the argument being made in the article, which is that AMP as a performance booster is "bad"

IIRC Google already does this. But it doesn't solve the same problem as AMP does. With your solution, site A can load at 2s and site B at 3s, and site A will win. With AMP, sites A and B can both load in 200ms by easily integrating wit

The core argument of this article is flawed. AMP does not break normal links--although the Google search engine sort of does. As an example of using AMP with normal links, see Cloudflare's implementation[0]. It is possible for many CDN

Wow, what a shocker! I used GV for _years_ as my primary number, but had to stop recently because the apps were so terrible. Something else I hope they've fixed: many web sites could not send SMS to GV numbers. For example my Chase ban

I think #5 is the most problematic here, and was stated perfectly. One method I have used successfully is sending surveys to people outside engineering. Send it to department heads and anyone else who seems interested in what engineering do

Google deserves more credit than it's being given here. I think AMP is Google's next SPDY. As you know, SPDY eventually became HTTP/2 through an open standardization process, and Google has since deprecated SPDY in favor of t

The first listed issue is "Use of SHA 1 and 1024 bit DSA", which they admit are "considered weak by current security standards". Not sure why the OP has been downvoted. Definitely something interesting to note.

I think what you're saying compliments the conclusions made by PG. If you think alchemy might have promise, go and study it! You'll be taking a risk, but it might just change the world (and put you in the history books).

It's simply not true that "the intelligence community will never be able to release enough information to satisfy people". A few days back, the same author wrote[0]: > On the other hand, if they've got web server logs

I'm shocked that this story seems to be upvoted less than the Gimli Glider story which has been on the front page for more than a day. One would think that the recent allegations of Russian hacking [0], as well as these allegations, wo

Agreed, and I appreciate the comment. I've developed the same appreciation for anarchism. But the original comment I responded to seemed to imply that the libertarian theory would allow this "free market" behavior, which is n

Most libertarians agree that fraud should be illegal, and that customers should be able to press criminal and civil charges if fraud is perpetrated against them. In this case, the bank charged customers for services they never requested. Th
