Well, if the insurance is not looking for an excuse to go bankrupt they’ll survey the existing setup and either refuse to insure or ask an astronomical premium. The infrastructure operator will then negotiate a compliance progress plan to r

It’s the premium you pay that quantifies the risk. Until there’s no insurance company that quantifies the damages and makes a quote to insure it, it’s all “Snowden cranks waving arms” nonsense. Once that is in place a new excel sheet magica

Java does. Of course it’s never been used systematically and it has received precious little attention to DevOps ergonomics, but the infrastructure is there

Wow, I (used to) joke about Corporate being about the same sort of org that existed in Stalinist USSR, with the only saving grace that HR could at most kick you out of the building rather than send you to Gulag. With this, being fired (on)

In the 60s you needed some crazy cowboy to try and fly a brick strapped to a gas tank. Today you simulate what happens on a Dell laptop and that’s that.

I will also add the constant aggression by the scorching sun of Southern Italy. Why do you think they’re supposed to be full of antioxidants and other healthy nutrients? Coincidentally for your consumer pleasure, or did the plants evolve th

Ok, so besides the technical faults of Mongo within the context of its category, what is the ideal use-case of a document oriented store? If you use metadata documents to model your relations you might get away with the most dangerous foot

Uhm so if you’re a group of out-group “retards” you’re violent, but if you’re a well groomed lad in a suit it’s a-ok “just the invisible hand at work”?

I don't understand all the kerfuffle. I'm from EU and was looking into investing earlier into Nasdaq symbols, iow before my bank decides to bother letting me pick some crumbs from their plate. So I look around and I figure that wh

Well, it’s not really OK, you need to spread the fingers to make it look like WP. (I find it ironic how all these dimwits adopt behaviors and attitudes from the ghetto gangs they would claim are their cultural anti-model.)

Ti generalize the expression to both genders, in Italy the pair can refer to testicles, breasts or ovaries. The point being “having significant reproductive potential”... I hope it will never be poco’d to avoid offending people that have re

Exactly, at least they didn’t use “childish” as a slur to condemn this behavior they consider inappropriate. Children have a significant inner world that deserves respect... /s

Can’t they the API address, make it configurable or extract the implementation to support git repo format? It would be insanely useful if both chromium and Firefox supported the same backends.

Don’t, they’ll add some routine that makes you tap on some “agree” button and shut down the whole darn thing otherwise... I have an idea: under the perverse excuse of delivering firmware updates for your own network safety!!! Hmm, the plot

Uh, isn’t “whataboutism” more like: replying with a totally different subject that supposedly has more merit to discussion? False parallel feels a different thing to me

by eecc 6y ago
Not necessarily. Autocracies don’t self-correct when it’s needed: dissent is not tolerated and dissenters are automatically out-group and dealt with accordingly.
748.
by eecc 6y ago
Well no, because an autocracy can just decide to go full in with the most outrageously stupid ideas and no one can stop it from happening. Just look at the great famines in USSR, China and North Korea. Or the fuckups with nuclear reactor de
