Japan has a very strong rule of law. It is just that the law is a bit medieval.

Seems pretty useful once all the drivers, utilities, network devices catch up. This will be all the rage in SAN and other performance network environments in a couple years. Would be great to see a more thorough performance evaluation. For

Looking at the newer models, it is pretty neat they can run Python. Some of my earliest programming experiences were playing with TI basic on my TI84 while bored in class so it is nice to see them stay relevant in that regard for today&#x2

TIL: The TI-84 got an upgrade since I was in school. I guess it was time to trade in that best of 1985 technology for the best of 2005 :)

Cannot second this enough. miekg/dns is probably tens of thousands of mature lines of code covering all aspects of the DNS protocol. This feels like bragging about creating an minimal http client but really you just used libcurl to d

Just my two cents: but this seems like an extremely uphill battle without an internal champion. I'd guess with how old this is and how many hands it has passed through, the legal team would struggle to put together the chain of agreeme

I've implemented this a few times in a few languages based on exactly what nginx does. It works well, and it is pretty straight forward if you are comfortable with posix style signals, sockets, and daemons. I'm not sure it is supe

I mean when the Alcubierre drive was first theorized it required gas giant planet sized mass energy to work and refinements to the theory have gotten that down to something reasonable so I would be interested to see what problems can be wor

The answer is carbon offsets Whether carbon offsets actually work is another issue though

Seems unlikely to me. With push broom, I'd think you'd get characteristic squishing, stretching, or skewing of objects in motion depending on whether the object was moving against, with, or perpendicular to the push broom path. In

Most imaging satellites are in sun synchronous orbits so likely in this case moving north or south and slightly retrograde e.g. west. I'd bet orbital motion is negligible here because the distortion seems to the eye to be entirely in t

True but if that were the case here it would also likely affect the ground.

It's worth noting that this is why many commercially minded projects require you assign copyright to them before they'll accept your contributions.

I don't have a problem with the government accessing the data per se. Given that the data exists and is commercially available, it would seem silly to tie their hands from accessing it. Police routinely run credit checks or just google

It depends on the company. I worked at a place with unlimited PTO where taking time off was encouraged and people typically took 3+ weeks a year. It was great being able to take long well deserved vacation without worrying you wouldn't

They don't work that fast. It is more likely he found out they were on the way to arrest him and announced that as a way to get ahead of the news.

The problem with PO boxes, besides being in short supply, is all the places that can't accept or ship to PO boxes (DMV, voter registration, private parcel services, insurance companies, ...)

Some people in my area use these services and I've considered it because mail theft is a big problem in my area. Organized rings doing package theft, identify theft, and all that. So for us at least, it seems significantly safer than h
