"I hope some responsible are looking for new jobs." If they look for (and find) new jobs wouldn't that just mean the problem is diffused? Personally I would hope they learn from the experience of failing than to get punished

Were you consuming large amounts of caffeine at the time? I'm wondering if there isn't a common dietary component of burn outs since it probably takes quite a bit of energy to work very long hours. (e.g. High calorie [processed] f

I agree with the sentiment but the issue I take with the original answer is that it is that it's completely unactionable. There's no litmus test defined for what "authenticity" to oneself is or how to achieve it, so ther

I agree. The OP is clearly asking for quantifiable responses about career impact and not platitudes.

I realize it's pedantic, but the title is actually inaccurate. The vehicle(s) in questions aren't actually "drones"; the term drone implies fully autonomous use. The accurate term is "Unmanned Aerial Vehicle" (

I don't necessarily subscribe to the theory but one possible angle is that they want members to log into the site. I suspect that it's easier to prove a user account (with a privately held secret password and activity history) bel

Honestly I don't know. The objective answer to your question is because that's how exempt professions is defined for the law. If I had to hazard a guess but I would suspect it's because people in those professions are expecte

Apprenticeship requires a constant stream of mentors. I'm not sure there is an ample supply of professional programmers who would be interested in taking on the responsibility of mentoring in addition to their full-time jobs.

It sounds like this attitude can be summed up as "It's alright to complain, but don't talk about doing anything about it."

What this article is describing sounds like a colocation agreement which is a quite common service offered by ISPs and is typically paid for by a monthly rental fee calculated by storage size, dedicated bandwidth use and power consumption.

I think by "certificate passwords" the poster was referring to the private key associated with the TLS certificate and not the certificate itself.

I think the analogy is a little off. This would be like someone having the GPG signing key for the Red Hat official repositories. It would give them the ability to insert their own (malicious) software package into the Red Hat update stream

How would that affect the single sign-on case? AFAIK it's common practice to issue redirects to people who are not authenticated to send them to the identity provider's (IDP's) login page. This would make it hard for an IDP t

I think the litmus test being suggested is to include the joke RFC in the reference section of a different technical specification as a way to verify the specification is being reviewed in detail.

Not at all. Google's caches are pretty commonly used to view pages with high levels of traffic.

Not likely. You can only create a backup once every 24 hours which would be useless for importing into a mail client.

I don't know. It isn't a breach of my employment contract so I would not be a very good source on this matter. You could contact them directly and see how they resolve it (or if they even can).

By your response I think you inferred I had some follow up commentary prepared that I didn't (and don't) have. I really just want to know: What do you think would be reasonable compensation for the week of vacation spent?

I don't think that just because they were wearing bulletproof vests you can reasonably infer "SWAT". Many law enforcement agencies have written or unwritten requirements to wear bulletproof vests when in the field. http:

I'm not sure where you got the idea that these raids were conducted by SWAT teams. The article only vaguely alludes to "federal agents".
