Sure, distribute your own root CA, but then how do people get signed certificates? I tend to work with large companies, where getting a signed certificate involves opening a ticket and waiting for someone on the other side to respond. ACME

But, somewhat annoyingly, it is only seen as applicable to the public internet. There's no effort to make ACME based CAs for non-internet usage.

My experience is that often the lowest effort changes also have some of the biggest impacts. I work in consulting, and I think one of my largest impacts has been to create a pre-engagement checklist for one of our very common engagements an

No, under US law you are still responsible for bribery committed by your proxy, and have to have a process in place to ensure that all proxies follow anti bribery laws.

I've been at Red Hat so long now (12 years) that it can be easy to take things for granted, but the biggest thing is just how open and transparent a company it is. There's not a lot of silo's or little kingdoms fighting each

So, not working with any insider knowledge (I work for Red Hat, but reading the news like everyone else), but the other news is that Jim Whitehurst is going to be the IBM President. Hopefully a big push in keeping Red Hat's culture rel

I agree they are great. I kind of miss the older style of reports though, with memes all over the place!

Only tangentially related, but New Jersey has a special case of this. It used to be all in on "jug-handles" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jughandle ), where you would need to be in the rightmost lane in order

I'm onboard. The amount of time I have to mess with receipts is a pain, all for reimbursement. And on the other side are receipts I never had any use for, which get tossed in the trash immediately.

They also have grilled chicken variants, and wraps. Between the two, you can get an entree for a couple hundred calories.

Do you mean on the tracks? There are hard limitations on sensing onboard the train. Tracks that bend around hills, etc. I have some exposure to wireless communication for trains, and one of the limitations is that you can often not get a li

FWIW, self driving trains are a very different problem. With self driving cars, the approach has been to use sensors on the vehicle and make autonomous decisions based on that input. This will never work for trains, because their stopping d

Exactly my confusion with this article. I have multiple female friends who have earned doctorates in STEM who have either left or are planning on leaving academia to go to industry. However, they are still all going into STEM jobs! So maybe

Businesses always ask for High Availability, but they never agree on what that actually means. IE, does HA mean "Disaster Recovery", in which case rebuilding the system after an incident could qualify? Does it require active-activ

Without further evidence, this article seems patently false. It essentially claims that over 1 in 10 American college students are looking for sugars daddies on a single website. What seems far more likely is that, like every "matchmak

Hah, no kidding. For what its worth, I grew up in a family that moved often, and was not technically in-state anywhere. If I had known that my family would also move to Maryland, College Park would have been probably where I would have aime

Seems like you are mixing two different concepts in to "required". If it is credential inflation, then is it providing value? Or as the grandparent said, is it just moving value around? Are more jobs requiring college degrees beca

Most students have nowhere near this much debt. The average undergraduate is accruing $15k in debt per year ( https://research.collegeboard.org/trends/student-aid/highlig... ) That means roughly ~$60k over four year

That's nuts. What state? Comparing that to my alma mater (Johns Hopkins), a private university, your loans work out to more than my total cost for tuition for four years (2004-2008). Even looking up their current rates, the average fou

Easily the first visual programming language I used that actually sold me on the idea. Most of my experiences have been with systems that claim visual programming, but then require you to jump top code almost immediately. UE4 blueprints are

I travel around the US constantly, and have never heard anything remotely close to comparing unemployment with Canada. Any talk of unemployment is always internally focused, comparing the rate to the past.

Another advantage is that scooters place less restrictions on how you are dressed. Dresses, shoes not meant for exercise, etc.

How has your experience with Loki been? I keep an eye on it, but haven't deployed it since it seems to be maturing still.

Is there some combination of settings that will keep the simulation from dieing out? Or is there some rule for signals propagate that requires them to "move" across the graph and not return?

That really depends on the city. In DC, my drive commute is ~10-20 minutes in the morning, and my train commute is ~40+ minutes. Why? Because I have to transfer once, and walk to and from the stations on either side.

I think the population density was one of the points. The current system allows countries to pick the schools within a selected region, and in a high population region they can focus on top performing schools. > that the sampling done o

Before reading too much into China's scores, there reason to believe there is selection bias in who they are testing. In 2017, applying the same rules to the US would have resulted in it shooting up to first and second place in some su
