My employer has the opposite of an open office plan after moving from our old location to our current one a few years ago. Tech support has a cubicle layout, but they are big cubes and assigned to each person. There's no sharing even a

It's a neat build. I have a question, though. When did Compaq ever own GRiD?

Imma let you finish, but first I need to tell you about this other blockchain.

I'm equally curious about flow-based programming. Treating things as filters has worked well for the Unix command line. There's no reason we can't have processes do sort, filter, merge, lookup, and such in well-defined ways a

Very specifically, the open core of Elastic's offering doesn't do authentication. It's not that there's a limited number of users. It's not that it's a single user and password in a config file somewhere. It&#x

The author of the blog entry is looking at things from a different angle. He knows the cost is low because demand is low. He's trying to figure out why demand is low. He wants to find a way to make that idle time useful time that produ

Banks are interested primarily in liquid assets. There's not much less liquid than real estate.

There's every chance your MX MTA authenticates people against LDAP, uses LDAP again to figure out where to forward the mail to another system for final account storage, then the MDA stores the message on a clustered file system or an o

Microsoft is largely in the PaaS business. Amazon is, too. It helps these companies to grow usage of outsourced hosting for third-party applications, much of which are web-based applications. They're often web-based not just at the use

It's used for a number of other things, from proof of control for cert issuers to information for OIDC. One of its main advantages is that it's self-describing. That is, it's a well-known place to put this sort of metadata a

Also, RISC-V hasn't been bought, litigated, and buried. Alpha is great, but we're about as likely to get new implementations of it at this point as we are of the 6809 or v20. RISC-V's future is looking better and better. Who

It's not just "-ment". You invite someone with an invitation, but the verb is being used as the noun these days. In many contexts "package" is shortened to "pack", like "gift pack" or "bonus

It also prevents any fully independent implementation of a compatible Swift since it wouldn't be from the Apache-licensed source.

Let me guess... retroactively the one that had the least work done turned out to be the highest priority when it came time for your review?

This showroom effect can work even for non-fitted items. I've repeatedly shopped in big box electronics stores then checked Amazon, NewEgg, and such on my phone from the store. It works out great, actually, because most of these stores

Weaponized fusion has been around for decades. Getting a confined, long-term reaction from which to draw usable power is the difficult part remaining.

As much support as there has been built into processors and compilers to get better performance out of the simple machine model of C, I must wonder if a new low level language aimed at exposing things like SIMD, large caches, SMT, and all

This sounds similar to HP's $100k+ solution. There's another similar attempt I've read about recently. It's a form of stereolithography resin printing. Instead of multiple needles in a granular material it's using m

My point is that Approval, especially Net Approval, is better than FPTP and is no worse in that respect. Either Approval or RCV is an improvement. The rest is a matter of degree and weighting your priorities. The last few ranks in ranked ch

FPTP shares little meaning from voter to voter. I'll be an anecdote here, from 2016. I voted for Sanders in the Democratic primary. I voted for Johnson in the general election, but had I been in a battleground state where Clinton had a
