what makes you think a convert op to DDoS github is out of the question? The fact that this attack doesn't pass even a most cursory risk/reward analysis. Anyone with the technical smarts to carry it out must be well aware that t

This mouth-breathing Bullshit really needs to stop. the overwhelmingly most likely suspect for the source of the GitHub attacks is the Chinese government. Why would the "Chinese government" carry out an open attack against an am

It doesn't get better by adding even more entitled whining. If you have a family to support then how about choosing a less problematic career path than "Network Attack Specialist"? You are not entitled to making a living from

I have no sympathy for this kind of whining. "Help, I love designing guns, but the only people willing to pay me for that will use them for evil!" If you're a talented "network attack specialist" then you're li

How much would a db admin charge you per hour to do the same? I think that's the wrong question. A better question would be why you don't just rent a $50 dedicated server and run everything, including the database, on that. If y

all at a very affordable price AWS really needs to get back in touch with reality. $500 USD/mo for a server with 32G Ram and 3x2T disks is not 'affordable', it's a rip-off. For that money you can rent 10 machines of

I think they should just remove the drivers and let the engineers compete freely. That would be much more interesting to watch than the current yawn-fest of "which human will make the least mistakes on mostly identical cars"...
