They wouldn't, necessarily, be able to dump fuel. Most modern short to mid-haul aircraft like all of the Boeing 737's and the Airbus 320 series don't have a fuel dump system. It's only long-range twin-jets that are likel

Containers can't be designed that way as long as the primitives to build them that way (which are mostly part of the Linux kernel) are missing. That's a core part of the article. Containers aren't an entity by themselves, the

Apparently the 400V/63A one also exists in 125A and 200A versions though I guess those are not very likely to show up in households. There's also a 690V edition. It's quite a shock.

Google is divesting trust from Symantec but is doing it in a way that avoids hurting end-users and badly breaking the internet. They explicitly state why they don't just want to revoke it in one go and they have really decent arguments

They're not bigger than Google. And it's Google's browser and the open source Chromium project, so I'm having a hard time seeing how Symantec is going to get a judge to say anything along the lines of "I forbid any

It seems this has a high potential for bugs though if people aren't aware of that detail with the `coffee and tv` example. Depending on how well versed you are with regexes it isn't immediately obvious.

That's a fair point, I hadn't considered that. I still think leaving it out of the article is fair though. Since we don't know one way or another and there isn't anything pointing in that direction just yet.

That's not answer to the parent's question. Tor has very little to do with the ability to host your website by just plopping HTML into the Shared folder you used to have on Dropbox.
