What if the response to the delete were a redirect back to the same page - would that be reasonable?
632.
by cs02rm0 8y ago
Off the top of my head, for one, because my HTML sits on top of a REST API and links can't hit a DELETE endpoint. I've no idea what people expect right clicking a delete link to open in a new tab to do?

You're right about the double review, but I think the argument still loosely applies even removed one step. For instance, I've worked somewhere with a rule that x% of code should be unit tested. In fact that was the rule applied

Use those other things for punishment then, don't sting them additionally just because they're wealthier (or rather, have a higher income). Getting off track here, but I'd rather there were as few tax rates as practical. Perh

Anything else. The points system seems sufficent to me for most driving offences, beyond costs. But community service, prison time, curfews, anything which is equivalent and not open to manipulation.

That's simple. But what about someone making $150k a year with no assets vs. someone living in a $1.5m property with no job who made $15k last year on $150k of shares? What about someone with $1.5m in shares who made a $15k loss on the

Admin costs is an answer I've heard previously to having a non-zero lower end (i.e. an element of the fine that's not supposed to be punishment/deterrent).

Dollars is roughly proportional to hours for the guy at the bottom of income levels. I'm not sure it is for people at the top, choosing which assets to liquidate in which year.

So now we're not looking at fines in relation to income but lifestyle? I just think you cannot scale fines in relation to income/lifestyle/anything else financially. You can scale it, but you can't hit people with differ

A $50 ticket is not going to deter bill gates from speeding. Of course. But I don't think we can sensibly, or ethically, charge him an amount that would. How much would deter him to the same degree? $1m probably wouldn't cut it

by cs02rm0 8y ago
The goal should be to persuade everyone not to speed in the first place.

So, if a $100 fine for someone with only $100 to their name is adjusted to punish Bill Gates the same amount... how much do you fine him? Every cent he has to his name? Because if you leave him with anything the punishment isn't the sa

He's not punished "more", he's punished equitably. No he's not; you simply can't punish people equitably by financial means. License penalty points, bans, sure, but you just can't equate fines against di

That seems a fairly reasonable fine to me - if the speeder has "annual income of more than $820,000 and is worth well over $20 million" then why shouldn't he pay more? Because his income isn't anything to do with the o

If one person gets their life savings cleared out for a $100 speeding fine, how do you equate that financial pain to Bill Gates? Why should Bill Gates be punished more in the same situation for having put the work in to build a successful c

Interesting point, although I can't say I ever managed to get on with anything in XCode I've certainly had some Linux native desktop dev struggles in the distant past. I'm a Java dev mostly, so perhaps I'm insulated from

I am afraid if I apply and fail skills tests at too many places word will get around. Word won't get around. You won't get a job you don't apply for though. And if they just do skills tests without any other consideration t

Ever wondered why Ubuntu doesn't really seem to be getting better, mostly just shifting technologies around? Lack of either a near complete monopoly or a track record with dedicated, quality hardware. Throw in some questionable leade

Had a client just last month that were doing SOAP wrong somehow... To be fair, I'm not sure there's any other way.

Take the course because the investment is minimal and it might work for you. I ended up wrapping up the idea I was working on. I've gone back to consultancy, still toying with other ideas looking for something else to try. Did it help?

Similar to VMs, I run a lot of docker containers, mostly with JVMs in them. I bought an Intel Hades Canyon with 32GB to run Linux on after the new MBPs didn't turn up at WWDC. Feeling somewhat relieved right now.

Yep. And they're not the only ones. Nagra sell a system that does it to ISPs around the world and have done for at least 10 years. I'd been hoping we'd see more of that in the UK, but there has been virtually zero movement pr

I've seen comments on this article elsewhere around load balancing not being needed until you're at scale, but do others not put it in quickly, not for volume, but for availability?

Maybe the property is the route to go - can it be commercial? Remote hires not an option? Tech startups seem to be hard to get people to take seriously, however solid the foundation. I've done a lot of consultancy for a UK company whos

I found this article from Saturday worth the read, as it explains what Docker actually is, and why no one needs it: http://catern.com/posts/docker.html.* Not sure I agree with the conclusions. A bunch of OS-specific a

Yeah. At the time at least (this is also UK) you had to be under 6'1 for fast jets and although in theory you could be up to 6'4 for the big slow stuff or rotary wing initially they wouldn't know what aircraft type you'd

I'm not quite sure why this is downvoted, although I understand the nuance, it seems an interesting and related point. Out of interest, are there open source licenses that prevent use in military projects? ISTR reading something recent

One of my earlier memories is my dad going away to GW1. And when it wasn't war it was training or night flying or exchanges or just on standby while we were away. After my dad left the air force he worked in Saudi for 10 years or so, d
