If we can't fight them in the courts then we fight them where we are comfortable. Now more than ever we need to start outpacing the law using technology. We've done this before and we can do it again. Bits move faster than bureauc

I'd suggest switching to a static site in general. I have no idea what kind of traffic they're sustaining at the moment but NGINX serving up static html (or s3) is a lot more efficient than Wordpress or another blog engine consumi

I like this idea better than any of the ideas I've come up with or have heard from others. I think this is something that could accompany full blown legalization, as a few people have pointed out(and I agree) that some drugs are more l

Good point. What can we do instead? How would making fewer things illegal solve the problem of corrupt institutions locking people up for money?

Don't know why you're being down voted. I thought it was well known that they actively commit/participate in crimes in order to entrap people.

I know that's the reality, but isn't this fucked up? Shouldn't _this_ be illegal?

What if a junkie could go to a clinic and get their fix? I'd happily pay more taxes to get junkies their fix. I'd also be happy to pay taxes that would help them seek treatment as well. I'm not at all qualified to propose rea

Yeah we solved that problem in Chicago </s>. We learned that criminals don't obey the law and the law abiding citizens have a difficult time obtaining the proper tools they need to protect themselves.

You'd think someone in the chain of command would say, "what would this look like as a legal market? How much could we generate in taxes? Do these people really belong behind bars?" A few questions I have: * How many schools

Yeah seems like something we should track along with hiring. Great thing to know about if you're on the market.

I never knew it was at the bottom and I use this site all the time. Thanks for pointing that out. However, it does raise some questions about the UI in this case. Can't we put the search box up in the header where people expect it to b

The problem here lies with the authoritative nameservers. You have to retrieve the record from somewhere initially. The trouble here is that since these companies are using Dyn and only Dyn to be their Nameservers. When a dns request is mad

I remember working as a help desk tech and our company used ACT the CRM software. At the time it was very poorly designed(might still be) and used an MSSQL database to store all of it's information. We wanted to port all of the informa

Unfortunately it's kind of a joke here in Chicago too. You'll hear everyone saying "Suns out guns out" and crap like that. Especially holiday weekends are the worst. I'm not sure why it's this way, but I have a

And so the cat and mouse game begins. Users of Facebook are using the service free of charge(unless you're advertising or paying for something). I think if fb can detect that a user is a paying customer they should disable ads but for

It depends on your needs and budget. Can you afford time but not money? Try Sensu or Nagios. Do you have money and not time? Try datadog. Like someone else mentioned here, if you're looking to alert off of logs from ELK, try Elastalert

I read it the same way. I don't think it was intentional. I think this name without the e would be much better.

I'm still convinced that Hipchat was bought by Slack and the Hipchat horribleness lately is the Slack migration plan. The new client is just terrible. I asked a coworker to zip up their HipChat.app so I could revert back to a state of

There's also a lot of thrash in this space right now. If you don't have the time or don't want to be a trail blazer use Boring Technology ™ until someone else figures it out for you. Perfectly acceptable approach, imo.
