How are upgrades tough with RDS? It's always just been switching a configuration setting, applying, then wait.

That's why we should adopt the customer-owned utility model used for SMUD in Sacramento county.

This is exactly why I cancelled my Comcast service a few years ago and switched to Sonic, even though it had orders of magnitude less bandwidth. I even offered to stay on as a customer, and pay whatever 'overage' fees they charged

Consistent, super-low latency for reads and writes, even with high queue depths; and high bandwidth, even with low queue depths. I have one in my home workstation, and operations on many small files are noticeably faster compared to the Sam

Even if you got a maintainer to commit and release code to disable PoW, you'd still have to get enough node operators to update, which... I doubt would happen.

You can still introduce them via circular strong reference-counted pointers. The solution of course is to have only one strong reference and many weak ones, but the compiler in principle will let you create a cycle that will never get deall

That's not really a problem. Addresses aren't the entire ECDSA public key, but a hash digest of it. The entire public key is only revealed once a transaction is made from an address to another. So an address that has only received

There's activity on the forums, though rare; last posts from about a month ago. But still, Ivan is there dutifully responding to questions. I think interest has just died down a bit until they get more benchmarks (which, to be fair, th

I'm pretty certain that they are. Can't remember the source at the moment though.

Not necessarily, it could be moving coins to a different wallet of the same owner. Edit: also, that assumes that, even if this is an exchange between owners, neither party has/will report it to the relevant tax authorities.

That's all Autopilot is--Tesla's branding for adaptive cruise and lane keeping. It's just as useful as competitor's versions.

I don't think that vector would work, as only a single tenant's VM is scheduled on any particular core. That's why the minimum number of vCPUs for instances on hyperthreaded hosts is 2.

In the US, the 1st amendment and current case law don't support restricting that kind of speech. Only if there's an immediate, specific reaction, can the speech be curtailed, and even then it's difficult. Trying to incite a r

IPC means "instructions per cycle," so it's correct to divide the scores by frequency. Totally agree that in total performance, no realized BOOM chip comes close to mainstream Intel chips. I think Chris is working at Esperant

The stalks and buttons on the Model 3 can access all of those same features, as well as adjust the follow distance for adaptive cruise control. Climate settings are through the screen, via a fan symbol button in the center. That pops up a t

I've found that the majority of functions needed when driving are available through the steering column's stalks, left/right buttons, or voice commands. If I ever do need to use the touch screen, I can activate TACC & Aut

No, it's 2019: XBT is around $11.8k, more financial instruments like futures, trusts, and ETFs are coming online, and LN adoption keeps growing (Bitstamp just launched their first LN node!)

They're not fictional possessions--millions of people have them, in the real world. They can be transacted, and exchanged for real-world goods and services.

"Removing instant transactions?" Do you mean "the GUI shows 0-conf transactions as pending?" And why does adding Segwit make it "not bitcoin anymore"? Further, the Bitcoin Core devs didn't alter the protoc

Except for an early hard fork due to a transaction verification bug that allowed for infinite Bitcoins to be created, the main Bitcoin chain, as implemented by the Bitcoin Core client, has never forked, to my knowledge. It also seems dising

For the blockchain to be as secure as possible, a large amount of capital must be invested into mining it, far more than the average individual possesses. There are plenty of exchanges in reliable jurisdictions (Coinbase, Bitstamp, etc.), w

Isn't Google using Kubernetes internally on green field projects?

That's exactly correct, from my understanding. Though it's biased, there's a great documentary called 'Money as Debt' that explains the process in an understandable way.

Yes, but that's only to support its goal of efficient lock-free data structures, not for Rust's goal of memory safety.
