There is a spectrum of "it just works" to "I've applied every best practice" bad programmers who spend huge amounts of time on best practices will end up wasting a lot of time over optimizing but it may have the ben

Thats a lot of ifs that could go away if docker would put some more emphasis on quality.

You can have a swarm with only a handful of commands now, with TLS (for docker api). Eventually stable docker host to docker host container networking will have encryption out of the box too. The number of steps for a production docker setu

The host isn't the container itself. They want to re-provision the host likely not because of something wrong with the application but instead docker is in some state which is non-recoverable, or at least not recoverable by automatic m

I did not find that part of your argument to be substantial to the core of my point, they followed whatever tax regulations they were subject to abroad and if there are loopholes then those countries can close them if they so desire. Overse

Governments are averse to competition, bureaucrats need to realize they cannot bully companies into paying ever increasing taxes within a global economy. The goalposts moved a long time ago, I did not move them.

Countries don't need to have a corporate tax, and if they do not have a corporate tax it doesn't mean the US government should get a piece of the pie because no one else decided to take it. Just like a Comcast monopoly in a small

I doubt any sane person keeps their US citizenship for very long if they are living and working abroad. Apple should move out of the US in my opinion if they are going to get taxed on transactions outside of the US.

It should be close to zero, why are we forcing Apple to pay taxes twice? Let them bring the money back and they will put it to much better use than any government organization. They could hire huge numbers of people and contribute to a mass

These are profits which are not being made within the US I am guessing? This is something that seems to be glossed over but it's a really important distinction to be made. Apple's actions seem pretty reasonable, if you worked and

DNS appears to have a decent amount of decentralization, otherwise what use would it have been to switch around TLDs for the pirate bay?

The double standard is incredible. Google would be well served defending the open web by supporting sites such as torrentz (via legal resources or otherwise), its unfortunate that the PR aspect prevents such a thing.

Okay so its just theft because when I get my check I get a receipt which tells me the amount of theft which occurred from each pay check. The violence part of this is important because without violence or some force which compels me to pay

In theory that would all be fine but this magical contract that I signed at birth some how which gives the IRS the right to commit violence against me some how doesn't sound as appealing as you make it. When the three wolves vote to ea

by jjn2009 10y ago
I don't see what is so ideological about this idea. If someone threatens you with violence or locking you away in a cell without your consent for not paying them that is by definition theft. If I asked you if its okay for a citizen to

by jjn2009 10y ago
I think given Tata, Infosys, Disney and Edison electric's behaviour is plenty of reason for people to be critical of how we have setup H-1B. Illegal immigration is illegal so that is a purely indefensible position to have to be in supp

From a utilitarian perspective this will cause more harm than good to golang. Enabling users to ship binary blobs instead of open source openly audible code will decrease the over all quality of golang libs. Its the job of those who write t
