I would have if it served my needs, because those others required special hardware and/or hefty licensing costs.

This is really going to help a lot of sites protect themselves - right now we just have the evil bit, but being able to block addresses with a ptr in .bot should eliminate drive-by defacement altogether.

I think you're putting words in her mouth, so to speak. That paragraph begins by repeating a statement about God being found in the cracks between knowledge. I know I've read this elsewhere, it's not a new idea. The rest of t

This isn't a new position for him, unfortunately. Here's a link to a video[0] of him in 1998 explaining it at a commencement speech. I guess this could be taken out of context, and he's actually just being sarcastic, but I do

This is splitting hairs a little bit IMO. Diamond is the hardest material. We can make diamond synthetically that can be harder than naturally-occurring diamond, but it's still diamond.

It shouldn't be. If anything, being as big as Dell makes me wonder why it hasn't happened already. I work at an Enterprise software company a few orders of magnitude smaller than Dell. The number of people we have who don't e

I've had issues this year w/ Ubuntu 14.04 machines where the kernel modules would not build, resulting in zpools that could not be imported. I guess that's more of a packaging issue than a code issue. I periodically have unex

Have you tried lately? Java used to be a big issue on FreeBSD, but that hasn't been the case in several years. Now it works as well as any other platform.

The article title is very misleading. It's just a proposal, couched on whether enough gas plants could be built in time to make it a reality.

Is he really non-establishment? I realize he's an Independent 'Social Democrat' or whatever, but he's been in Washington since 1991. He's pretty well established IMO.

Data on people seems to be what everyone wants. We have big data collectors like Google and Facebook firmly on the pro-encryption side, ensuring your privacy. And that the only parties able to mine your Google and Facebook activities are Go

Keep in mind that McCain is up for re-election next year. Some of this is overstated, although I figure he probably does believe the government should have a backdoor and doesn't fully understand the implications of that.

Yes, except he's a member of the Republican Party, serving as Junior US Senator from Kentucky as a Republican, and running for the Republican Presidential nomination. Edit: this was not meant to be snark, just an indication that, in th

"Republicans" Rand Paul is pretty openly pro-encryption. Hillary Clinton is equivocating; I think she's probably anti-encryption. These may be exceptions that prove the rule but I think what we're really seeing is a comb

fastclone uses reference cloning, which references objects from another clone but pulls missing stuff from origin. There are two local object stores, the reference clone and the referenced clone. Cloning semantics are identical to a regular

Just to be clear, this is trivial in vim using :!curl. No fancy plugins required.

Honestly, this reads like an argument from an advertiser trying to justify their purpose. Where a box is on the shelf - at least in every supermarket I've visited - has no effect on the convenience of the product. So that's a stre

Adds value from the perspective of the seller, sure. If I buy the honey nut cheerios vs. the off brand honey oats, I've received poor value because I've paid more for the same thing. And it's only adding value for the seller

Is this just an assertion that no money == no counsel, or is there some other attack on the 6th amendment here? I think the notion that 'clean' assets can be frozen pre-trial is unfair, but as long as a public defender is actually

I think that the products you're complaining about are in the state they are in because of vendor choices independent of the software development process. If total stability and backwards compatibility are not design requirements, neit

I don't like trying to make direct comparisons between Agile and Waterfall as if they are two separate mutually-exclusive approaches to development. A product developed in an Agile process still has a 'maintenance phase'; the

Don't break support for them? There are still requirements, there is still design. If you have a customer depending on your API, that is a requirement. Agile doesn't mean requirements go away.

I was wondering about this too. Lists of commodity parts might be treated like recipes, which are not subject to copyright per http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl122.html , but the drawings are a different matter.

You could pre-translate, but Gozer would probably still laugh at you because they use Old Persian cuneiform, not Sumerian. You might also risk your message exceeding 140 characters post-translation.

I wasn't asserting anything here, just pointing out that there has been an alternative for almost 2 years. It looks like ES separates repos by version[0], if that helps at all. [0] https://www.elastic.co/guide/en&#
