What's wild is that when initially launched you could only register 3LD domains. If you were quick out the gate and registered one in 2002 and have been using 10 year renewals you're about to have a domain you've owned for

More completely the 8 hour work day movement. Loosely, 8hrs each for work, sleep, and everything else with everything else often being called recreation. Add in a 5 day work week and 40hrs. There's monument in Melbourne commemorating s

Which is fair as is not expecting everyone to be able to deliver a barnstorming talk. At least not without training. I'd also flag that the audio is not good which isn't your fault. The trend towards conferences just pointing a ca

Point of order. They were cancelled. There was a surge in viewership as they tried to tie up the story prompting the renewal of the show. But way too late. That they were able to pull off season 5 with the scraps and missing major cast memb

No, it's not centrally collected. There is a national eHealth system, MyHealthRecord, but it's opt in for patients, supplementary to your provider's records, and various pieces of privacy legislation at the state and national

Yeah, its the EU Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive. For any item covered by it made after 2005 it's the producer or distributor's responsibility to recycle it.

When you hybridise like that it’s up to you to highlight the benefits. As you point out it’s much easier to do that with closely related fields. You need to have an idea of what the one field brings to the other. If you don’t know and can’t

The initial container is a contrived worst case example. Not necessarily a bad idea when you want to make a point but most of the gains are from not doing things you’re told not to do on page 2 of the docker tutorial. Also, while vanilla Do

So I unlock the phone and hold it in front of an officer? At which point the office relieves me of my phone and takes it as evidence.

Speaking as someone who just got bitten by Maven’s dependency resolution now only building broken artefacts. (Sub-dependency’s dependency is loose enough to pull in a version built with an incompatible JDK) I prefer Bazel

Herd immunity is important too. Not everyone, and especially those most vulnerable to flu, can get vaccinated so helping keep it down in the general population helps.

Tellingly they go out of their way to say security fixes are always at their discretion and come from upstream. After explaining that a no feature updates is fine as upstream will be effectively dead. This ain’t Python’s problem Red Hat thi

Then you’ve kinda reinvented Kerberos or at least half of it. You’d be creating a hell of a lot of load on the server and the CA generating and signing all those new certificates. Way back when “Grid computing” was a thing you’d use daily c

Yeah, It implies bad things about the expected performance of the JVM or the quality of the application being run. Either startup time or the time taken for the JIT to get a handle on things is apocalyptically bad.

The UK still has a site too but yes there's only a handful globally. The former site at Dounreay in Scotland used to leak particles on a regular basis which were all kinds of bad news for anything living that came into contact with the

I forget who it was but I remember someone commenting along the lines of: They don't need to add back doors they just need poor security. Or, to double paraphrase. Any sufficiently bad firmware is indistinguishable from back doored.

In the UK the limit is the limit. There is leeway to exceed the limit by up to 10% to allow safer overtaking (you're usually using the oncoming lane and opportunities are scarce) and to take the accuracy of car speedometers and police

I primarily deal with a weird OpenStack system but also bare metal, AWS, Azure, and whatever someone in authority decides we need to use this week. Terraform works, kinda, which is more than can be said for most of the alternatives.
