I use Docker a lot. I also use things like Docker volume plugins and have had to modify code due to API changes/breakages. "Production ready" in the "container space" for me are Solaris Zones, FreeBSD Jails, and to

Sadly, the state of things, be it the Docker ecosystem or others, "ready for production" means something much different than it did years ago. For me, the definition of ready for production, Debian is a good example of the opposit

I can second this. My wife has a personal 6S, her work phone (they pay for the plan, but not the phone) is a 5S we had laying around. She hates going on international business trips with that phone (we could swap the SIM), but "it&

The only thing that stands out for me here, and I think directly applies to Google's business overall, is the lack of a human factor. Google wants to move into the enterprise, enterprises generally like talking to people -- especially

There were techniques discussed as part of the JPEG-2000 efforts where just reordering coefficients before doing the entropy coding would gain you a good deal of compression (though at the expense of the block based nature of JPEG). It&#x27

It's all hearsay...but, an inlaw (wife's uncle) who passed recently had a lot to say about his native greece, the work ethic, and why he decided to stay in Germany (he and his wife did have a place in Greece). Those stories over t

I've seen lots of stories about "cities" and their plans. In the bay area, Morgan Hill to Mill Valley, keeping things to 101, are part of the same suburban gridlock. Do I see that area changing by "autonomously driven v

It's a bit of a naive comment, because it wholly depends on the libraries you include and what those do. Use any of the debugging libraries that shim in their own alloc routines, you bypass malloc (or at least do a bunch of things that

I'm born and raised in the Bay Area (a native, of sorts). Between work and family, I've travelled more than a little bit the last few years. I live on the coast, we used to have some great storms in the late 90s, but nothing imp

See an earlier comment -- regions should have an overall approach to affordable housing and transport. That said, specific to Santa Cruz? As an alumnus, I'm appalled at how much the university (and bureaucracy) has grown and that on c

Yes, large cities can provide services at scale, but two things again factor in: 1. The original commentor above has a good point, who pays? A lot of times, a regional issue ends up costing a single municipality the bulk of the costs (Sea

In a few of the threads, the mention of SROs and need for housing come up. Gentrification, affordable housing, etc. But, one question I fail to see answered well is, why should a city that isn't affordable be required to find and prov

It is interesting how large cities with a similar problem differ from smaller "towns" like Santa Cruz which have as bad or worse problem (due to concentration/space constraints). Local individuals here will defend and make ex

I've heard about this incident first hand from old timers out in DV, having gone for years myself. The warning at the start of the piece, maybe merited, feels a bit over the top. The story itself is quite intriguing.

It's funny how the interpretations of Pope Francis' comments on the issue are taken. Some quote him as indicating too much immigration and Europe could lose its culture, others indicate he's open to the immigration and Churc
