She leaves out the primary benefit of agent-assisted digital channels... they are asynchronous like some sort of people epoll(1). They maximize throughput. The friction comes from the synchronicity of voice communication. With that said so

I would tend to agree with you. When you use public data you get all the implied imperfections of public data. You can make some vague inferences but since the controls aren't in laboratory conditions the potential for biased results i

Its true that FDIC has lost fewer deposits than S3 has lost objects, but as usual there is a caveat. There are 2,000,000,000,000 objects in S3. In order to make a comparison the FDIC would have to insure over 300 deposits for every man, wom

Oh you can't trust the FDIC they are government insured. And governments collapse all the time. I gave an example. Like a I said there is only one safe place for your money. Thats in your own private bank that you build and maintain yo

This is a misrepresentation. The "Have you ever" was to demonstrate a point. There are armies of IT housemen that believe they are better than securing data than the major storage providers. This attitude is pretty pervasive and p

And what you keep missing the point on is that Im not saying don't have a personal copy. I am saying if you have multiple copies the safest one is undoubtedly in the cloud and by no small margin.

Once again. I only entertain statistical arguments. This anecdotal nonsense is for the birds. Any given service can fail at any time. This is known kaleesi. You can poop out case after case of some shit wiki platform losing your bird watch

It doesn't share the exact same properties, but you can make the comparison with any given copy. So yes the analogy holds.

Do you keep your money in a shoe box under your bed or stuffed in your mattress? I'd hope no, but then that begs the question "where do you keep it?" I'd assume not in a bank because any bank can fail at any moment and t

I certainly think this level of regulation is on the horizon given the number of businesses who use S3 as an authoritative repository. If Amazon needed to shutdown S3 even today I can see the government asserting a heavy hand in it.

by nsfyn55 11y ago
I do keep a back up of things, but the back up is on S3 because that is the most stable storage option available to me. Everything else is the risky copy. >Do you control Amazon? No? Then you're not the captain This is textbook NIH

>For truly essential data at least one of those copies is both offline and offsite. But the fact remains that where ever you choose to put it "offline and offsite" the odds of it being lost are orders of magnitude greater then

Yeah I guess I can see that. But then again I would never give important data to a 3rd party without some sort of contractual arrangement.

by nsfyn55 11y ago
Yeah but once again this problem is statistical in nature. Admittedly the cloud isn't perfect but the question remains. Does the "Counter Party" risk outweigh the chances that my home spun solution would fail? Since the likel

I'm not following where you are going. If these database records point to objects in the git database. How will you synchronize garbage collection and the state of the database?

I don't think github was created with a shared repository model in mind. If you are forking which is the implied model this feature is relatively pointless because they offer you "pull only" from forks.
