It's a fairly honest reply. It means "you're not there yet". It's far from Yes, but it's not No; and a future Yes is not likely but not impossible. You could try asking for specific things that require improvem

It sounds like what students need are better teachers. I haven't been to school in a while but I had plenty of classes that were more interesting than surfing YouTube; and some that weren't. The same is true for meetings at work.

Also, when a test relies on mocks it doesn't test the real thing, and doesn't guarantee proper behavior in the real world. I suppose this is obvious from the nature of mocks. And yet, if you can figure out a clean and fast way to

If all this information is in 1Password then I guess you are back down to one factor - your 1Password master password. Which may be ok with you. Just pointing it out.

That's true but in development mode the site is served dynamically. That said, it doesn't use Sinatra there either. It uses WEBrick which is in the Ruby standard library. https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll/

You will write tests, because without them, you cannot refactor. With them, you will be able to quickly and easily make your code better and better, with much less risk of regression. As a result, the initial implementation details of your

Rotation is a really interesting subject which has true security benefits. Unfortunately manual rotation is a PITA. What works better is to have an automated system rotating the credentials, and then you fetch the credentials as-needed by a

Yes. Youth of today will will sit in a room that has a TV and watch shows on their phone. TV is like Facebook for them, an artifact left by a previous generation.

This has been said elsewhere but both GamePass and NHL.tv are good unless you want to watch local teams. Which of course is the primary desire of anyone who's a cord cutter (like me). I'm sure they are prohibited from providing lo

The article states "People seem to get better at savoring the moment as they age". As a father of four, I'd like to point out that young children do this constantly! It seems that it's an ability that we have, and then l

We use phusion baseimage, which does have an init system (runit). We have been happy with that. Our customers are not ready for us to provide our product as 6 distinct linked docker containers. The image we build is more like a VM in that i

by kgilpin 11y ago
My suggestion is to build a package installer for your app and use that to build the final image. For example, we use fpm (running in a container) to build .deb packages, then we push those to an apt repository (artifactory) and then build

Summon also fetches the secrets out of the backend in a provider neutral way; it's well documented; and it ensures that secrets stay off persistent disks. So those are the reasons to use it. It's better for the world if there are

It's possible to get sports. Basically you buy a non-US version of a sports package like NFL GamePass and then stream the content through your phone. You can get any game without blackouts. You'll need a VPN connection to a foreig

Sure they can. They want to run a job, they can get the key from me and run it. This can be transparent to me; eg my phone could transmit them the key every day until I decide to stop. So many people are saying "your proposal breaks cl

If companies stored customer data encrypted by keys that are held by the customer, they wouldn't have this problem. Furthermore, they wouldn't have to worry about deleting customer data either. The customer would have the power to

The attackers objective is not blowing up a crowd of people. Their objective is a hijacked airplane; a dangerous weapon that can be used to attack strategic targets like the White House.

Also, when you are talking about container-based cluster deployment, the network (IP addresses, VPC, subnets etc) is useless for machine authentication, because any container in the cluster can run on any host machine at any time. As an exa
