Unknown, but unlikely in relevant time scales. The fires have been much larger and hotter than typical. The vegetation that does regrow probably wont be the same as we lost, ie pyrophillic scrubland replacing forrest. The fires are also des

Usually its a precomputed list at run time. Think of a tree that goes from network address to locale(s). More specific network prefixes (probably) have more specific locales. Companies like MaxMind collect and repackage this based off of in

I'll prefix this by saying its probably pretty far out on the spectrum of practicality. More paranoia or legal problems than wanting access to region restricted entertainment content. I dont have adversarial experience with law enforce

I probably should have said “geo-political.” Youve noted the contractual aspect, which bubbles up in regional content restrictions. I was thinking more along the lines of law enforcement as well. Where civil & criminal law, data retenti

I spent quite a few years working in the isp/cdn/dns space. Is “virtual location” an idiomatic term for VPN users? The more general industry would probably say youre looking at Points of Presence (“PoPs”). The core of the article

How is this relevant? AFAICT AWS Policy statements are capabilities. Each policy statement denotes both actions and resources, and that policy is then granted to another identity/resource. As noted by other comments the parent artic

The Branagh version of Wallander killed me with this. They somehow reduced it to a BBC cop show that just happened to have a bit of swedish set decoration. Conversely the american version of Low Winter Sun was at least an actual adaptation.

Is it really never, or is that in relation to complex low voltage setups? I replaced my main panel earlier this year. They very intentionally grounded to hot & cold water and iron gas pipe in multiple places plus at the copper water sup

Maaaaaybe. I see the CDNs bringing on compute & durablish storage at the edge. And id buy the argument theyre positioning themselves for the next round of “cloud” ala Lambda + DynamoDB. But I strongly object to the capital characteriz

Yes, this. DNS and CAs are effectively rooted in internationally recognized legal systems with rules, precedent, and procedure (flawed though they may be). Approaches which circumvent that give up those protections. Which leaves something l

Its not that registration requires id. And i dont mean an individual providing gov id. I mean verifying that “store.sony” is managed by a legal entity representing Sony Corporation of America. Basically the entire (ongoing) problem behind D

Not sure where Syria came in. The original comment expressed a desire to get back to a more civilized age where “American soldiers [were not] dying in other people's wars.” My point is not the morality or efficacy of that adventurism.

“I'm starting to feel like my generation may be the last American generation to remember a time when we weren't at war.” I suggest taking a look at something like Max Boots _The Savage Wars of Peace_. The short of it is that the U

Strongly disagree that “internal” interfaces have lesser access control or (to a degree) stability concerns. Any successful system will, sooner rather than later, have the same concerns as those “public” use cases. Coming from inside AWS th

There are a handful of companies that will try and sell you this. However Id say anything thats simple enough to be expressed as a chart or 1 page summary is not actually useful. Interesting outages have variable breadth, scope, and severit

In practice, no. The broker != agent distinction is key here. And the insulation between actuons of the agent and responsibility of the broker. Additionally the standard paperwork (AFAICT) routinely has the principal waive the brokers duty

Your order also captures permanence. If another actor gains access to the data, I cant revoke it. If I lose the data, I cant access it. If I cant access the data now, I can try again later. On your second point ... Im not sure. Sony is stil
