I know Jake. I had the proud privilege of employing Jake. This is a fishing expedition, and an absolute abuse of the EPIC and PATRIOT acts. The NYT filed a lawsuit yesterday to try to start getting some transparency into these matters --

Perl used to be "too big, too popular" and writing Perl apps that plugged into mod_perl was what every company was trying to hire for. PHP will likely be replaced, but not for a long time and it will take time. And there are still a lot of

Koch brothers aren't politicians, they are financiers of political endeavors -- huge huge difference. Meg wants to be in the spotlight, the Koch family wants to be in the shadows pulling the strings.

Whitman's political ambitions died in the Governors race she lost in California. She spent over $100mm of her own money and couldn't get more than 41.7% of the vote. It wasn't even close and she out-spent Jerry Brown by more than 5:1. She

Seconded. This bar is full of Adobe people just about every single day, but particularly on Thursday and Friday around 5pm.

I guess crashing isn't a feature. I'm not trying to be a troll, but let's be honest -- There has never been a version of Flash that hasn't piece a complete piece of garbage when it comes to stability and performance. If Adobe "got it" this

Do you have ~100 developers using it and 1000s of issues? Definitely does not scale.

Just because sexual orientation is not a "protected class" on a federal level, employment laws in nearly every state are very clear that in addition to the protected classes, you can not discriminate arbitrarily. But it doesn't matter, in N

lots of words, not a lot of evidence. I know quite a few ops and abuse folks at godaddy who have root or enable, but this doesn't seem substantiated enough for me to even waste their time with. The title is linkbait. There is no such offic

You would hope that to be the case, but it is not generally true.

I think you misunderstand how this works. Poor geo-targeting results in increased latency which is directly correlated with throughput and it increases congestion. Fixing that has tremendous benefits.

We've thought about letting people turn it on or off, but have held off for now. We're only sending the edns-option to authoritative DNS providers who also handle the HTTP request, and thus would have seen the entire src_ip anyways.

Ahh, this is possible. Not as likely in the US, but possible. We're working on it. At least it's fixed for Youtube, all Google properties, a bunch of other CDNs now. But yeah, some big guys still remain! We'll get 'em.

That's not true at all. http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-vandergaast-edns-client-sub... Caching works just fine. There is some cache inefficiency, but memory is cheap. Really cheap. http://www.jcmit.com/mem2010.htm

This option isn't enabled for Akamai. There is no way it can make Akamai slower. Title isn't misleading, but your comment is.

I'm one of those early users (uid == 18). I find the site too hard to navigate these days. I don't know where to click or how to filter it back to just the nerdy stuff. I guess I deserve my uid==18 since I feel like an old fogey saying t

I have no experience with ZeroCater but I can tell you that providing food on any regular schedule for my 60 person company is a nightmare. We don't want to provide catered lunch every day, but on any given day there are probably 2 differen

The article isn't celebrating success. But perhaps it should be. Building a great company where the success you have achieved thus far is recognized in the form of a favorable valuation which increases shareholder value (which includes all

The force and momentum of a solid wood bat will trump a hollow light aluminum bat any day. The only thing you get with aluminum is a greater velocity.

I do not think this is an advance fee scam. I think the pay-per-call commenter is closest. Here's what I think is happening. A marketing firm has told some local businesses that it will do online marketing and other marketing activities t

It may be your ethical belief that all patents are bad, but we know it isn't Google's. They have hundreds of patents, a number of which list one of your co-founders as inventors. So sure, I guess it's nice that in this instance your comp

You're conflating two issues. An individual can be in support of protecting intellectual property and against our current laws that implement said protection.

It's not like that at all. Your analogy is completely lost on me.

You believe that being pro IPP or anti IPP is an ethical position? I am pro IP protection (IPP) and but I strongly dislike the existing IPP system we have.

I'm not pro-patent, I just want Google's motives as I see them to be more transparent, and that is what I am aiming to achieve with my comment. If they thought patents were more strategic for them, they wouldn't be anti-patent. For them it
