NCTUE was new to me... I love that they're apparently gathering all this data to sell, but if you don't want your data to be sold, you have to snail mail them or call them...

Agreed. The demo highlights "extra" AWS code for authz + authn, but doesn't explain how f0 doesn't need it... Does the server need to set an ENV? You could argue that's no different then one AWS auth method. This lo

I certainly agree speeding is not the sole cause of accidents... But your conclusion is not supported by this -- if anything it encourages towards a similar result through technology... Less people can speed.. less police officers would be

The article mentions hydration (a process to reduce the penalty of first access of a data block). This is done by essentially reading the entire EBS volume with the tool like fio or dd. The time it takes to complete this process is relative

The article talks about fio to warm the drive... That's basically fast snapshot restore[0]. This reduces the "first access" penalty for "dirty" blocks. This is probably the slowest part of the entire article (it&#x2

In the USA it is almost always labeled distilled water.. I've never seen "demineralized water" advertised as the alternate methods are relatively new (at a competing price point).. but they would likely just be called purifie

We offered "usage+minimal base fee" (cost-plus) based first, then used that data to determine fixed rate plans based on the initial customer usage. We still offer both, but fixed rate outsells by far because of the reliable bill..

Distilled water is effectively demineralized... Not perfect... technically it's collected steam from boiling water, so it kills most bacteria and leaves most other material or minerals that can't be carried by steam.

I'm not sure "large percentage" is a statement I'd agree with, my searching skills are failing me, do you have any kind of source for that? I'd be shocked if it was over 5%...

My argument is: weather. I think it is fine & better for society to have applications and models for things we don't fully understand... We can model lots of small aspects of weather, and we have a lot of factors nailed down, but n

The problem is the source of the reports and display of the reporting. I'd trust Down Detector a lot more if it was filled with Hacker News community -- people who are able to understand that there's "DNS" and "Rout

I think it depends what permits they are waiving as part of this plan... Will we see a bunch of leaning buildings like Santos Brazil after their big tower boom? I imagine they are keeping most of the safety ones.. but it wasn't well hi

A plane that has a perfect track record now may not be perfect from now on. Meanwhile, a plane with a bad track record right now may never have another incident from now on. So, the 737 MAX may have 2 crashes now... but every other major p

Maybe they shouldn't sell printers under cost and ink at a 98% profit per sale... I would buy ink cartridges from the vendors if they were not twice as expensive and utilizing sleezy tactics like lying about being empty.

I found that interesting as well. It shifts the blame away from software and a cover up by Fujitsu to more of a perception/reputation/political cover up by the Post Office. Fujitsu still has some blame, but if their statements wer
