there really isn't a perfect solution for running/jogging/etc... so far as players go...at least for me. I don't want to carry a phone to go running. My "good enough" solution was to buy a sansa clip, install r

I have had exactly one positive experience with ORMs: nHibernate + fluent nHibernate config with .net's IQueryable expression interface. That is the ONLY time I have used an ORM and felt like I had enough control to do what I needed fo

over time it would dramatically increase the size of the pool of talented engineers, among tons of other stuff. That's a great thing for all the tech companies in the city or companies with engineering divisons (and there are quite a f

this is a big deal for a lot of people. I was always under the impression (I'm pretty sure I had someone at GCP tell me at one point too) that basically all network communication was encrypted behind the scenes, even within your infras

their pricing model is a subscription + an upcharge on purchased goods (10%?). The upcharge may not do much more than pay shoppers and cover some of those associated costs, I don't know, but there's more than just the base subscri

not what I'd call a bargain for $5k. seems like more Apple tax than usual.

its really hard to have a serious conversation about population control. It's just one of those topics that immediately label you as some kind of crazy murdering nut-job in the eyes of lots of people. Honestly, it may not have been sup

they wrote their own cni to use AWS networking, much like kubenet. I haven't found details in if everything is encrypted in transit though; I REALLY hope it is.

like almost everyone else, AWS adds services to it's list of PHI approved services that customers with a BAA can utilize for PHI. AWS has done a phenomenal job getting services added to the BAA Service List over the past 6 or 8 months

http://www.aeronhq.com/ quality is fantastic. I think some old revisions required more assembly, this current revision is awesome. One warning, if you are taller than 6ft it may not go high enough for you.

I picked up a used Humanscale freedom for $40 that I'm almost done refurbishing (recover in leather, lubrication, etc...). Just need a couple missing parts from humanscale and it will be ready for the office.

I'm curious how stuff like a rear view camera is going to work since it seems even more essential now given the seating position. Do truckers now have to install/re-install a camera on trailers when they pick them up? Is it wirele

I don't hate the general idea behind crypto.tickets (linked in article), but they have an ICO on the homepage which is immediately making me skeptical...

I had a ton of issues with JsDom historically. They could have been fixed, but Cheerio always worked out better for me.

using route 53 has always been worth it for me, and it's not that hard to only use it for the bits you need rather than using it to manage an entire domain. e.g. my company hosts our own legacy BIND servers, so our main root domains li

ehhh...maybe our definitions of serious usage are different, but even then their EA based discount model is dumb. At our peak on azure we we're doing about $120k/month, but didn't bother committing to more than $200k/yr

I wouldn't go so far as to say it's a secret weapon, but they have added a HUGE amount of services in a very short amount of time relative to the other player. I still don't like though.

To be fair though, one of Redis's biggest weaknesses is its single threaded nature in instances where you, e.g., have huge sets and need to compute expensive set intersections/etc... Redis also might not be the best choice if that

Relatively, we work in a pretty open/accepting industry. There are plenty of Fortune 100's that probably have a shit culture, but there are plenty (literal tons if you move outside the F100) where this wouldn't be weird. I li

a tunnel does not protect against any of that. OP was already assuming it wasn't publicly accessible, or at least was ACLd to your company's public IPs.

seems like a lot of us did this. my version let you write little JavaScript modules to extract data from a page (which had been parsed by jsdom already), and then the change tracking picked things up.

Opposite experience here: My 5x started boot-looping for no reason a few weeks ago, also out of warranty. I got a new on in the mail 3 days later, zero hassle.
