Pretty sure FOIA is a USA-only thing, and given that the poster above you said "my country," there is a strong implication that it's not the USA.

So some 4channer was presumably listening to police/EMS scanners for the area of the prison Epstein was in and "got the scoop" that way?

Being respectable means finding a kernel of truth (that isn't necessarily widely known) and working diligently to clear the way for it to come out. Hard work and devotion to a cause is, in itself, respectable. Having the courage to sti

My thought is that it is a very lonely existence. I generally eschew most of society's social signalling. I drive only modest cars, I live alone in a sparsely furnished house (and love it!), try to eat right, keep a regular sleep sche

Yeah, that's pretty believable. Guess some places have a laxer culture and no automated scans checking for things like that.

I've been working almost exclusively in the AWS space for about 10 years now. Clients anywhere from tiny little three-person consultancies to Fortune 100. Commercial, govcloud, dozens of clients. Never once have I ever found a use ca

Sports isn't an equation. The human elements by far outweigh the "on paper" strength of the team. Also you never know who is going to get injured or when, so teams will stack their roster. The only thing that stops the big

I saw this also. I saw it as a post on The Economist's Instagram. I didn't read the full article.

Interesting that Amazon is below (but presumably close to) 10% of UPS's volume, but only 1.3% of FedEx's volume.

This is hilarious and great. The whole website is really funny.

With all due respect, if we were to plot age vs computer literacy, there would be a very high negative correlation.

I think the idea is that the full-payload drone is launched via catapult, and the takeoff from the customer's site is without payload, allowing for lower power.

I imagine that it reduces efficiency for the fastest part of the blades to pass very close to a stationary ring, as opposed to letting the turbulence tumble off the ends of the blades unimpeded.

I'm not on the side of the shooters. Violence is extremely rarely the right option and I'm not aware of any mass shooting cases that were even close to "justified."

It's human psychology. Of course more people die of cancer, diabetes, heart disease, car accidents (and probably any number of other things) than in mass shootings every day. But the seemingly random and violent nature of it is what&#x

Reason #1: Burning bridges. Reason #2: You are helping a company for free, essentially after they have stopped paying you. A company with whom you no longer want a relationship.

Good ideas were also suppressed under those conditions. Look at Galileo, Giordano Bruno, and Socrates. Allowing all ideas a fertile ground to grow and gain followers is important. Allowing individuals with a small social reach (e.g. live i

The money is going to them, in the sense that a) the money will be used to strengthen protections against such a thing happening again, and catching others who do it and b) that's that much less money that CFPB has to get appropriated

I feel like the rate is determined by the market and/or the profit model of the buyer. So a) there are other extension authors with similar coverage who are selling out and/or b) they can't turn a reasonable profit at a highe

So is it fair to say "the percentage of Europeans who can't afford a 1 week annual holiday is steadily dropping and most recently sits at a low of 28%?"

"Internally accessible only" just means you have to have credentials to access it. You can also add IP address restrictions to a bucket access policy; this was obviously not done here because once she had the credentials, it didn&

Is there enough space in an S3 bucket access policy to include DENY rules for every known Tor IP address?

Metadata, yes. But not content. So they can see you have 200 c5.9xlarges running in 3 AZs in 3 subnets in one VPC, for example. But they can't see what you have on the volumes attached to those instances, what processes are running,

Looks like she only worked there until 2016? Or is that just a resume from 3 years ago?
