   I'm aware, it's been mistaken for a butterfly (mostly my friends teasing me) a few times so I've somewhat owned the joke now. This is more representative: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons&#x

   While working on AWS, we had data corruption caused by a new feature launch. Deployments took ~6 weeks so the solution was to use GDB to flip a feature flag in memory for about 120k servers.

   I have a tattoo that is a butterfly with a skull in the middle. It's wings are in the upright position, meaning it's dead and pinned so uh I guess it's okay? It's a bad tattoo either way and has become a pretty regular j

   For an internal hackathon we basically tried to do this but ran out of time. We built our own query driven API layer that is basically a shim over datomics query and pull apis.

   I agree, if you want to hold them to their word then you should include all of them. They agreed to unlimited storage at their discretion, and so did you.

   So is this basically sharing the same API key? Wouldn't that make using this insecure, as you'd be seeing the same data as other rclone users?

   That's pretty neat. If you're interested, the creator[0] of the real NotHotdog app posted some details here on HN[1], apparently a blog post will follow. [0] https://twitter.com/timanglade [1] https://n

    Most pirates aren't actually after cargo I'd assume. They're just taking hostages and ransoming them.

    Why didn't you finish? I did the 3xxx self driving course on Udacity and was considering doing the nanodegree as well. Would really love to hear your perspective.

    I recently went through a similar legal situation to recover basically the same small amount. I find these incidents to be really interesting and oddly beautiful. Exploring the broken beaurocracy to retrieve your money is a game; when you f

    To be fair, there are ~28 million Texans, many whom are not sympathetic to the government and carry arms. I'd also reckon there are a number of Texans in the military that could possibly defect. Anyways this is a fun exercise, not in a

    Yeah I'm also wary and _never_ check a bag. But there is literally no option, they were very thorough and serious about this. You do not want to be stuck in Doha, Qatar- with no visa- arguing over your {iPad}. They had setup a new scan

    I just transited through Qatar yesterday, bound for JFK, and had my electronics forced into the cargo hold. They made us check a bag 3 separate times: for a hair straightener, a Nintendo Switch and a Kindle. Following a mind-numbing 25 hour

    For what it's worth, I agree with you. I think premature abstraction can cost a business a great deal. This article comes across as vapid - there is no silver bullet and it varies from org to org. I went from a big tech co where we had

    I'm drawing conclusions based on my time at AWS, but I believe this is due to the service discovery mechanism most of AWS uses. It's a gossip protocol, with a daemon running on each service host. There are very valid reasons you w

    So you're saying that a high minimum wage prevents homeless people from getting jobs? That opinion seems overly simplistic -- I'm inclined to believe homelessness isn't a result of the lack of opportunity.
