I worked in/on Openstack for 3.5 years. It's next to impossible to run it without patches, so it's questionable if they can do auto-updates on releases of the LTS channel. Someone needs to sit down and migrate patches and rem

Actually the real life Jay Landsman shows up in The Wire, as Dennis Mello. He takes over after Bunny Colvin is fired for Hamsterdam. > I know some people will prefer Breaking Bad and The Sopranos, but (good as those shows are) The Wire i

There is a terrific scene where Carver is lecturing new recruits about police work, and Daniels watches over and smiles.

To counter with anecdotal evidence, all the people I know that use Ikea furniture love how easy it is to use/assemble. I do dislike how difficult it is to move furniture across houses though, I either need to move it as one piece or ge

India != US. My bet is that UK would fall over themselves if the US demanded a corrupt businessman or a "high value target" like Assange.

I'm totally uneducated about things like this. Can someone explain if this could ever happen? What really stops activist investors from demanding logs from a web company, for instance?

Serious question: Is the elephant thing your view or your kids' also? I loved the (now discontinued) Aladdin show at Disneyland, and the highlight of the show (judging from the crowd's reaction) seemed to be when the 'elephan

One could also characterize your (and GP) view as NIMBYism. I want animal happiness, and they should give up what they like for that.

1. Learn gdb/pdb/whatever. With IDEs, it's even easier to set breakpoints, etc. 2. Try to setup a nice workflow in the early stages. To me, this includes setting up the code in git, and a minimal test/deploy system. This

In many parts of India, in most cases, Mr Foo Bar's kid will be called Baz Foo. So as people start calling their kids more modern names not derived from Sanskrit, the text you linked starts getting outdated.

I'm a little bit familiar with Indian culture; I think it's not that easy to tell the caste from the surname. It's probably easier to figure out if someone is Brahmin I guess.

Ha ha, you must know enough people from both sets ;) I've found that vegetarian-ism is a stronger indicator than someone telling me they are Brahmin. Or, if they are somewhat practicing, their sacred thread is sometimes visible.

Did you usually ask your Indian clasmates' caste? Or did they volunteer that information themselves?

I think the increased ability to talk about depression is a more important factor in rising depression rates. Unless the old rates had a model to factor in unreported cases.

If you're on H1, and have the money to pull it off, you can take a break with an approved leave of absence[0]. When it's renewal time, you can add these dates in as time not spent on H1 if the time was spent outside the US. I hope

Less cigarette smoke is definitely a perk of living in the US. I was shocked to see the amount of smoking in Switzerland when I visited recently. I'd put it at the same amount as in India (where I am from), probably. I also remember a
