I think they do train people, it's just not formal. And the other issue is the companies have no clue what their doing most of the time anyway, so you just end up with IT people on the market will all sorts of nonsense opinions.

I've worked in IT type jobs for over two decades, in some sense training would help, but to be frank the code and systems IT folks have built are of such low quality that it's better for everyone if they're handed over to mor

What's amusing is that this will likely hurt the tool makers since it will lock them out of free accounts, where as before they could sell to free accounts. Seems like a whoops for GH.

The main use case we tested with was for a data analytics pipeline to ingest telemetry events from video games, but would have been generally used across all our services, target was about 1m/RPS for our load test. The CoreOS ALB contr

We tried this out a year or so ago and found that it's performance wasn't suitable for our use cases, it would increase costs too much.

On the good end of the policy they're trying to correct "human nature", so the western approach is basically c'est la vie humans are terrible. I don't agree with the Chinese system either, but I don't see a goo

The Chinese are formalizing it and adding the system to places that haven't been too political in the past, but the west has its own unwritten social credit system and if you don't figure it out and kowtow to it then you're s

It's effectively the same as opting out of these robo calls, there's a FTC list for both and yet it has zero effect. I also get 99.9% junk mail, so it's easy to lose actual mail in the pile.

So the garbage dump we call a USPS mailbox doesn't rise to the same level of concern for some reason still?

China isn't that cheap anymore actually, a lot of their value in certain areas is that they have been doing them for a long time so are pretty good at it now.

Can the app detect if it's in the sandbox? If so, then it could just behave differently in the sandbox and then when used outside behave another way. I think the Linux systemd folks have the right idea with just running processes in th

In some cases the content doesn't belong to the person restricting it however, they're effectively copyrighting the digital medium, do you think that's right for them to DRM it? e.g. clearly the authors of these texts aren&#x

I just wish they wouldn't partner with orgs who restrict the downloading of material, it doesn't feel like the spirit of archive.org there are other places for content providers who want to be neurotic.

Amazon lets you browse more of the book and you can get a better feel for it. The E-Book you have to suggest a price, which in theory seems nice to pay what you what, but now I don't know what I'd pay. :)

If you use Goland 2018 it's pretty seamless, there are a few things missing like being able to get ptr addresses and view values in hex, and it's a little laggy compared to VS but not bad.

I found I understood English grammar better after learning German since it's explicit about the cases, syntax, nouns etc. It sort of revealed what the underlining mechanism was that in English was invisible.
