In my experience this is not just a problem with older workers and with long term unemployed, but also a problem with immigrant workers. There is a lot of experience out there that could be a productive part of the economy if only hiring ma

Going by your numbers, you mastered Python in 7 months. Therefore you should be able to master all 7 other languages in no more than 49 months which is about 4 years. Of course, I don't believe your numbers. You may have been able to m

Publishing an RFC is not that straightforward because of the formatting requirements. In any case, whether you go on a blog or publish a draft RFC, you WILL get shot down a lot. Part of the territory. If I were you I would contact some peop

What do cryptographers have to say about this? Also, it is not really triple encrypting anything. For example, lets say we have 3 functions x+7, x 3, x/9 and we apply these in turn to a secret value x. Is it triple calculated? Or tripl

This is something that really should be done under the auspices of the IETF. Folks interested in this should ask the IETF to set up a WG and they should include a generic network database protocol (or protocols) as one of the goals. Some pe

On the other hand, learning to program provides another route into learning math. Instead of getting bogged down in all the math notation, learn to code, and then you can approach math from a different direction and will find it easier to u

Docker simplifies the setting up of a server so that it becomes a set of building blocks. And it does so regardless of which server management framework you use. This means that you can ditch the more complicated Puppet and Chef and go for

Even for those of us who knew all about the capabilities in Linux and who used lxc already, it still packages things up nicely and makes lxc easy to use, in particular, easy for a team to use because not everybody needs to become an expert

What if we lost 50% of the world's population? We would be knocked back to the ... 1970s!?!? In the 1970s the world's population was about 3.5 billion and today it is double that. Sure it would be very disruptive, but there would

In Canada we have winter weather 6-8 months of the year. We LOVE going out in the cold. We play in the cold. We drink in the cold. We go out naked in the cold (after a hot tub session).

OpenVz was something that required hacked kernels. A better analogy is LXC = Solaris Zones KVM and XEN are hypervisors for virtualization. VirtualBox is a non-hypervisor virtual machine.
