Employers aren't generally allowed to search for, or look at, most 'demographic' information (age, race, gender, etc.). That's part of the big problem with this...

They don't sell a single pair of wire frames, just the thick plastic 'hipster' style that's currently in fashion. No wonder they're only $95...

Email aliases are not limited to gmail - most MTAs (Postfix, sendmail, etc) have allowed '+' aliases for years now. I think it's bad advice to just simply filter those out - your customers may be using them to filter emails, track the usage

The other catch that not many folks seem to realize is that 'your' us-east-1a is NOT the same as 'my' us-east-1a, although my 1a and 1b are guaranteed to be different AZs. And I think you hit the nail on the head - 'regions' are for regiona

Cash is generally hard to steal in bulk. You can't just get a bunch of numbers from people surreptitiously and then empty their entire life savings in effectively untraceable milliseconds.

You don't though, as noted above. If you checked the 'multi-az' check box, which costs a little extra, then everything worked properly . If you cheaped out and used a single-AZ deployment, against published best practices, than it's your

Netflix uses more than one CDN, and, according to posts by their one of their architects (Adrian Cockroft http://perfcap.blogspot.com/ ), they use EC2 for everything but some basic in-house HR/backoffice stuff. He's got DOZENS of posts on

It's significantly more difficult to scale a traditional relational database (although not impossible!), than to scale the web/app layer that sits in front of it. Snapshot + clone + some kind of sync middleware (like pgpool for postgres) c

I won't argue about amounts, just the principle behind it. I don't think it's got anything to do with devaluing the image by posting it on a micro website, so much as recognizing potential commercial value on someone else's work, without gi

There's an argument there - do you want to be at your distro's security update mercy, or have to remember/have two separate sets of security patch processes to run through?

Why should you get the option to 'take it down immediately'? You've already caused the harm / received the benefit / etc., and you should pay for it.

I appreciate the response. I would say that we mostly agree on both points. I think that the word 'ambition' is colored in a negative light, which is probably the source of your intuition feeling that it was wrong. That's why I specificall

I agree with almost everything you have said, with the exception of one principle. The drive/desire/ambition to do 'better' DOES make you a better person. The people with that quality are the ones who've provided every major improvement in

How much information from highly secured RDBMSs is leaked and lost on a daily basis? How much of that leakage is prevented by the database's security mechanism, vs. that of the application connecting to it? And to pick on certain things -

There are still linux distributions that don't do EFI? Arch and Ubuntu, at least, run fine on intel macs, without the whole crazy power problem issues you're talking about.

At no point did I say they weren't doing anything illegal. Just that it doesn't 'suddenly happen'. They're huge, and very, very slow moving.

You've obviously never worked for a government agency if you think anything could 'just happen' one day. It's hard enough to get things done that you ARE legally allowed to do, let alone anything remotely questionable.

Nanny Poppins could leverage this with an API for the approved/vetted sitters that are available for that set of parents. That's actually a pretty neat idea!
