Metro's hours are usually the problem for me, usually getting to the airport after the last train has left.

100%. I fly out of DCA/IAD, and each time weigh the options of parking at the airport and taking a rideshare service. Last time I used Uber from DCA it was much more expensive than I expected, and have been parking there since.

But what if the product is a flop? Part of the benefit of "quick and dirty" is that you can quickly verify the market and iterate on product fit.

Yeah, it is really strange. When it comes to trucking, the vast majority of the industry is individuals or very small companies with a handful of trucks. I would have though the benefits of scale would cause mass consolidation, but that isn

Qpid Dispatch Router/AMQP 1.0 are both very interesting technology. I actually work for Red Hat, and do use Qpid Dispatch a fair bit. Straight Qpid Dispatch (without waypoint messages to a broker) is basically providing something simil

In enterprise environments, I more often see overuse of message brokers. I am all for targeted use of messaging systems, but what I usually see is an all or nothing approach where as soon as a team starts using messaging they use it for _

The limitation for train capacity is the need to maintain a "block" to ensure that a train has enough time to brake in the case of an emergency, without hitting the train in front of it. For Japan's high speed rail, it takes

Yeah, Red Hat's products are (almost across the board) 100% open source. No "extra" features that you have to pay for.

You are describing OpenShift ( https://www.okd.io ), a kubernetes distribution that adds on top a lot of common needs like monitoring, log aggregation, git->image build workflow, self-service via a CLI or web console, etc. I wo

I'll back this up, I work with enterprise customers to adopt kubernetes. I frequently have customers do installs on both AWS and Azure. I have never had a customer as much as consider GCP without me asking whether it was an option. E

There are separate Case-Shiller Indexes for 20 large metro areas, as well as composite indexes for the 10 or 20 largest metro areas. For the 10 largest metro areas ( https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/SPCS10RSA ), the an

When using a merge_request pipeline, GitLab defines additional variables for the run. That includes `CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_NAME`. So it would look something like this: job: only: refs: - merge_requests v

For periodic admin tasks, you might consider giving Ansible AWX a try ( https://github.com/ansible/awx ). It is a web interface for managing Ansible playbooks, and lets you configure jobs that another user can then execu

Is there any open source self-hosted CA that supports ACME? Boulder (the LetsEncrypt system) has big disclaimers in its docs about it not being a good fit for most companies. In most large companies, issuing certificates remains a manual pr

I agree, those graphs were pretty confusing. As far as I can tell, they are not showing the average time each operation takes (ie average elapsed wall time), they must be taking the length of the test and dividing by the number of operation

Part of the article calls out how the alternatives (like CRI-O) are shipping docker compatible CLIs, so that users can keep going `docker build` but with a completely different runtime.

Consulting is not the main driver of Red Hat revenue, the main thing Red Hat sells is Support. Support is something enterprise customers want, and they will sign yearly contracts to get it. In return, if/when they have a production iss

Red Hat does not have any "for-fee bolt-on addons", everything we ship is open source (or will be soon after acquisition of a closed-source company). Responding to some of the other comments, Red Hat revenue is nearly all from pro

He was certainly allowed to work on it on his own time. He just was no longer being paid by Red Hat to work on it, or to travel to conferences/conventions to work on it.

Unless you can find a way to weave cryptography into light, it will always be possible to trick a video camera into recording something that is "fake". Trust is what society is built upon, we're not going to get away from it

I imagine it would work the same as any other information today, like press releases. Who is the source? Where did they get it from? Do I have any reason to doubt them? Ie, the end of "trusting" videos from unknown sources with un

Coming off of the recent SEC case against Elon Musk, does anyone know how they look at leaks from public companies, especially high impact ones like this? Are there any examples of SEC action in the past?

Red Hat is not the example you claim, everything in our products is open source, no piece of Open Stack or RHEL is proprietary software or open core. Even when we acquire proprietary software companies, we open source everything. This model

I see this very much. Friends that are surrounded by dual income couples that are lawyers/doctors/etc get convinced that 300k+ household incomes are "not that much". This while being 97+% percentile for household incomes

Are diamond foundry's prices an accurate idea of the cost to manufacture lab diamonds? I was surprised by what seem like only slight discounts over natural diamonds.
