ACLs are deprecated and IAM is a single mechanism with multiple policy types (which again, I don’t think should be simpler… if anything, I find it’s not complex enough to handle some niche access requirements). Can you share what the other

Permissions Policies are confusing because they can get very complex... because enterprises need that functionality. IDK, maybe I'm in the minority but I don't think IAM is something that can/should be watered down.

When did anyone say "2 weeks to stop the spread" I remember "2 Weeks to slow the curve" and Trump's "15 days to slow the spread" but I don't remember anyone ever saying eradication was simply 2 weeks

Ah, for some reason I read the original message as some new dwarf planet was outside our solar system and had a trajectory towards it. Thanks for the clarification.

Apologies if this is an obvious question but I'm not familiar with astronomy. Will this dwarf planet just pass through our solar system or is there a chance it will start to orbit our sun?

> Does doing more than "the common layman" make the conclusions reliable? Yeah, by definition. Someone who has more knowledge in a subject is more reliable than someone who doesn't.

The author did more research than the common layman. From my perspective, the author fully assessed the situation. Do you have reason to believe the author hasn't done enough research?

I wholeheartedly agree with you. Our lawmakers and politicians should be held accountable for spreading lies. That being said, I still believe that this is an engineering problem first and not a problem with the Texas regulations or the pol

Having read the article, I didn't see any suggestions towards a solution... just clarifying which regulations would have helped/stratified the problem. Why do you have an issue with a non-expert clarifying that he's not an ex

The East, West, or Texas grids didn't implement it, you're right. My point is that Texas' grid is getting called out when that report was ignored by everyone. It's a national issue, not a Texas issue.

Which standards should they meet? NERC'S? That wouldn't have helped.

Exactly; I'm tired of this being conflated into a ~political issue.~ Edit: Sorry, let me specify. I'm tired of this being a Texas-only political issue. I agree that politics are at play but this isn't localized specifically t

As in, Texas has a fair blend of both parties but get perceived as being "red". With the current political atmosphere, people tend to want to make issues political. What this article is trying to point out is that this was an engi

If you read the article, you would see that there's a strong chance they still wouldn't have power. Texas' grid currently exceeds the requirements set out by NERC for winterization.

Yeah, that's a good distillation of what's going on. I think people have severely looked over just how significant this weather was and why it was really reasonable for engineers to not anticipate this situation. What we really ne

I've wondered about how much of outsiders' responses have been driven by their own prejudice against Texas and our current political representatives. Which really isn't fair since Texas has a massive number of democratic vote

What this really helps point out is how frequently people voice their opinions on matters online without fully assessing the situation. As a Texan, I agree that the situation is more nuanced than what's being presented on the news, soc

I'd like to just point out that I stated sexual orientation was not a protected class less than 24 hours before SCOTUS made their ruling. It's funny how suddenly things can change.

by ptcrash 6y ago
Yes, it is discriminatory. But discrimination isn't illegal; discrimination against protected classes is. Examples of things hiring personnel can discriminate based on include political views, your weight, your sexuality (at leas here

I wear both a DevSecOps and a System Architect hat at work so take my experience with a grain of salt. I spend maybe half of my time working alongside developers to define security controls that need to be added, verifying they were impleme

Personally, I've worked for a few startups and each one seemed to have little to no formal process for every function. Being that they are startups, agility is obviously everything. However, I found that without formal processes (with
