Somewhat strangely, the description reminds me a lot of Active Directory Certificate Services. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731564.aspx

The tone of this article is very upsetting. It begins with "I like to think I’m pretty alright at computers", but frankly I don't really agree that this is the case. Good at programming, maybe, but clearly not very good at op

"The Google Computer Engine (GCE) service allows..." Did anyone else cringe?

In a situation like this, how do you know that routing to the status page is not the problem? Many of these companies use statuspage.io which is on AWS. Edit: this is an edge case, clearly. I just think it's an interesting problem.

The chef-client cookbook does a similar thing in its cron recipe: # Generate a uniformly distributed unique number to sleep. if node['chef_client']['splay'].to_i > 0 checksum = Digest::MD5.hexdigest(node[&

CDN costs money too. 722K req/s is a lot.

Definitely not the case. I have played through all the Kingdom Rush games, fully and doing all the bonus objectives, without spending a dime beyond the initial purchase. I had a great time too, and I have a pretty low tolerance for grind. I

Docker is built on LXC, Linux containers. LXD is a new thing from Canonical, a hypervisor designed especially for containers that is supposed to guarantee hardware isolation.

For disk encryption on Windows, I switched to Bitlocker for my personal use. At my workplace we use Symantec Encryption and Sophos Safeguard, my understanding is they are both pretty okay. For file encryption, now I just do everything on my

I used Truecrypt heavily for years, but since all the kerfuffle happened I've switched to other stuff. I like Truecypt and would like to move back, but I'm not sure when I'll be able to trust a fork. I can't audit the co

If I understand correctly from reading the man page[1], unlike Puppet there's no server. You just run a command line tool on a node to inspect or create a "system description". You can then export and deploy a description to

It's all relative. There are probably a lot of subway riding Japanese ladies that would argue that this problem really really should exist.

Not even for a million bucks? I feel like the intended audience will be interested enough to come back later.

You have to enter a 4 digit PIN number into the app. It's still two factor, since you have to auth to the app to get the one time pass.

I have pretty much the same setup at my work too. It goes Gitlab->Jenkins->Puppetmaster. This works super well with Puppet dynamic environments, since each team member can have their own branch to mess around in and make mistakes. On

This looks like the block page you get from a Palo Alto firewall. The feature set includes traffic inspection, among many other things. We've got a couple where I work, they are pretty great firewalls actually.

This seems like kind of a crummy thing to do to snapchat, but I like the idea. I wonder if that could be successful, like a file swapping service built on the same premise of one time only. Charge a nickel a shot or something. I have no ide

Your values are not universal to all humanity. Sometimes I work an 80 hour week. I do this because I'm engaged with something and I don't want to be doing anything else. When I don't want to do that, I work normal hours. I li

Same for me. Super weird. I can't wait for the blog post that explains what code blew up for this to happen.

There is nothing particularly special about Backupsy as far as I can see. Just cheap simple servers with a bunch of disks in them. This type of hardware is very cheap. The software layer is equally simple - seems like just KVM and a dashboa

Hijacking my cpu without my consent is not doing good. There is nothing good about that.
