For many the pleasure is just the break from the norm (a chance to leave their desk and go outside). A poor excuse but it is what it is.

I agree completely. It has made the people suffer, not those higher up. However I think Iran could see another uprising on the horizon, which I guess is the point of making the people suffer. Sad it had to be that way.

This information brought to you by the people who said Iraq has WMDs. Colour me a bit skeptical.

I think that those many are mostly correct. The US has funded those it knows will sign contracts with US companies to purchase arms (mostly, construction and oil deals also). They may even prove to be correct in the Iran situation too. Time

One significant point I feel you missed is that it proved that the sanctions worked, albeit taking a very long time. Iran's economy has suffered badly (eg a cheap car there such as a Hyundai is 4 times the price it is elsewhere). And t

I would just want a much better battery life, and software and UI that doesn't utterly suck. The only good thing about the GoPro is the lens/sensor and the case/mount system. The camera itself needs a lot of work.

Yep it's good news. Chargify has been doing it since early 2014, but for a lot of Stripe users it's nice to be able to continue using their API for it.

by baudehlo 11y ago
Yes, but probably a business opportunity to write an API layer over the top, that writes files and SFTPs them on the backend. Sadly.

Which there will be because everyone uses --save so each module has the version around when they added the module.

There are syntax warts in there. Just new ones.

As an old perl 5 hack it is worth looking at as a new language. Like if you thought rust was worth exploring. It's not related to perl historically at all except by name.

Many people forget the newton. And so it's important to remember that Apple has been dabbling in this area for a long time. Adding phone and Internet capabilities to these devices (and remember that music also drove this change) wasn&#

You can go the systemd route if you want, or just know the fact that parsing strings works, is mostly reliable, and really isn't as much overhead as people make it out to be. How many system profiles have identified it as a problem?

Heck, even well known boring big companies (eg IBM, Oracle) have great smaller teams that are doing interesting things. Much of it is a crapshoot. The nice benefit of the smaller company is that you have much higher likelihood of seeing you

But there's practically zero popular reddit's that are ok with people promoting their own products.

I'm pretty sure that police are in most first world countries too. The US confuses me a lot. Is it the presence of guns that makes them train like that, or just bad policy?

by baudehlo 11y ago
I had no idea American police were trained like army recruits. It explains a lot.

At 2000 employees, 95% of them aren't getting anything worth talking about. That's within the margin of error for glassdoor.

The question you need to ask and I'll state it more clearly: do YOU need more? Those companies probably aren't you, and can afford to experiment with commercial and open source options that may or may not fit their scale. People w

There are benchmarks out there doing hundreds of thousands of queries per second with Pg. I've had it do about 200k myself. Do you need more?

The problem I've found in newer communities is they are so disconnected now. Perl had p5p to guide them, and various conferences and very close knit groups which I was proud to be a part of. I'm now more in the node.js crowd, whic

And thus it's more about culture than size.

Oh and in terms of the other question: how many people get enough SMS messages that they want to filter them? Filtering is uniquely suited to a non realtime messaging system. Like email. I don't want to filter Slack/IRC messages e

Oh you absolutely can, but there are a mix of problems some of which makes spam filtering better on the server (knowing bad sources of email, like infected desktop machines), some of which makes filtering better on the client (like knowing

Spam, generally. Because email uniquely among communication protocols allows sending a message without any previous agreement from the recipient, will always be susceptible to spam (and getting rid of that feature would destroy emails benef

Check out Haraka, built by an old SpamAssassin developer (ie me). It's all that and has custom anti-spam features like the Karma plugin too. It's in place at some large installs (eg craigslist, who went from 20 postfix servers to

by baudehlo 11y ago
You can do the first part with Haraka. For what it's worth. I started work on an imap server but decided there was little point as nobody needs a highly custom imap server.

by baudehlo 11y ago
Yeah because sanitizing client side is a great idea.

Good to know. I was using FNV to hash spam signatures which are typically small. Glad I chose well.

Never mind - it's covered in the other reply link here. Looks like xxhash is the goto hash algorithm now.
