Right... I just don't see that being worth 10B USD I guess. I don't see how you come up with that number, and I assume this is where the "upside potential" needs to be. In the case of AWS, I can see the advantage, you&#x

I'm so curious to understand how you pitch Docker at a 1.3BUSD valuation. With I assume a potential valuation of ~10BUSD to give the investors a decent exit? Does anyone have an insight into this? Looks like Github's last valuatio

Regarding point the second point. I assume there's a cost associated with using the weapon, even if it's untraceable. Regarding the Berserkers, it sounds a bit like a grey-goo scenario with self-replicating machines that wipe out

Yep, after reading the three body series I feel like I'm much more skeptical about sending out Earths location indiscriminately. Spoiler: One of the central tenets of this book is that the most logical course of action for any alien di

Because it's a forbes article, I guess this may be a pain for anyone using Adblockers. In summary: The Voyager disk contained a "map" showing where Earth is. They used pulsars to identify Earth's location. However, since

Not only this, but could they at least enable Netflix original content through VPN/proxies? (as they've started blocking all access via proxy now).

Yes, I find that quote quite offensive. This page is not from the official GNUStep project, and doesn't seem to be written by a GNUStep developer. However the quote is from a comment by web developer associated with GNUStep. That'

I find all these anecdotes interesting, but I'm not sure how much I can extrapolate from them. I've worked in Japan, and seen the inside of a few Japanese companies. I've seen some weird stuff. I've worked in other count

I think it would be pretty unlikely to trigger rowhammer accidentally. The incidence of random (memory) errors is very low. Something like once every 1.5 years... This study from Google is pretty interesting: http://www.cs.toront

That's really weird. I thought Apple liked having little secret projects everywhere. Even having access control between teams for secret special projects. If it's open plan how will that happen?

From what I can tell, the original source is mentioned here: http://www.svengrahn.pp.se/trackind/luna3/Luna3story.html (V. Efimov, Novosti Kosmonavtiki, August 2000.) It appears to be a Russian language magazine (

I can do embedded, but also do other programming and programming related jobs. Thing I've found with embedded, is the pay is generally not as good as other work, and it's generally not as flexible (no remote). If you can do either

There are a huge number of laws that apply to building a home, and have for a long long time. To single out this law, which appears to be an overwhelmingly a good idea, as the "bad" one, seem a bit nonsensical. If your against all

In general, I find these kinds of comments strange. There are many applications I might find more interesting too. However rather than criticizing others I spend my time feeling vaguely guilty for not doing any of them...

Thanks for the links. If the first link is what they're referring too, then it's a pretty dumb headline. That article is a non-peer reviewed perspective on some recent research. To provide background they make a throw away comment

It's true, but the review process (while not the publisher) does add value. It's really useful to highlight the gaps in an authors work and suggest additional analysis they could do to support the work and make it more useful. Or
