Well, you can look at it that way, or you can say that the degradation appears to be 100% worse than expected. They modeled 0.5% and it seems real world numbers are more like 1% , at least for the installations they observed.

Describing code review as an 'inefficiency' doesn't seem right. Developing code without review is not more efficient than with code review. It may be faster (at first) to skip code review, but the output is going to be lower

It's kind of funny that Krebs doesn't mention the other obvious "one weird trick", which has been around for decades now: do not run your critical systems on Windows.

We could rate-limit Ajit Pai's internet to 25 down, 3 mbit up for the rest of his life (because that is enough for everyone, he said). But, I'm guessing there will be no firm corrective "no". The parties involved will ge

Curious opinion, that. Linux on the desktop has been serving me very well for over 2 decades as my daily driver both at home and at work.

I see, a VMware feature, thanks for clarifying. I suppose it's a nice idea in theory, but you'd have to be crazy to use that in production, or for any workload that you care about. It would just be a ticking time bomb.

Virtual machine disk space (e.g. Xen, Linode, AWS EC2, or similar) does not work this way. Each VM gets a dedicated amount of disk space allocated to it, they don't all share a pool of free space.

Oh boy, that is a spectacularly bad idea. Not only is this making it easy for app developers to do the wrong thing ("I will just put some text here and make it unselectable, that is going to be great UX") but even worse, it is the

To be fair, that was just Ajit Pai, who also thought net neutrality was not important. Now that he's gone, I hope he gets subjected to 3mbps upload speeds for the rest of his days.

That is (hopefully) happening this time. It's worth pointing out that a lot of other countries on Earth have laws that prohibit hate speech. Quite a few countries have libel laws, too. The US does not have either of those at the federa

But what's the alternative? Should we just let people incite violence to their heart's content, and then be surprised when people actually carry out the violence because they have been brainwashed? How is that better?
