What about all the existing cars on the road? What about manual cars that can be push started? Who installs and certifies these, they need calibrated frequently, they are extremely simple to bypass for anyone with even basic vehicle knowled

So the tunnel the LHC is in has a circumference of 26.7 km. But the LHC has two parallel beam lines running in opposite directions. I assume that’s where the discrepancy between our numbers came from. But both beam lines are in the same

I wouldn’t be so sure, the baseband firmware can be remotely updated by the carrier.

The views above share a similarity to the anti-vaccine crowd. Basically the FDA does such a great job at keeping our drug supply safe that people fail to properly understand the risks, just like vaccinations have done such a great job of p

Cache is insanely fast, orders of magnitude faster than ram, and basically instant compared to going to disk or another machine on the network. I would find it unlikely that they could overcome the added network latency introduced in such

The big issue was identifying all the impacted services, reconfiguring all of them testing and redeploying them. If it’s a few services fine. But once it’s a few hundred it’s a pain.

Demand exceeds supply and they lose several thousand dollars on each of them? If only there was some sort of market driven mechanism to solve this issue.

Obviously if all your services are hosted in house and you will never need to expose internal services externally go for it. But as soon as your organization grows, splits, merges or starts utilizing other services that don’t give you acce

Just hope you never need an external system, or a cloud hosted service to talk to your dev/test environments. It’s so cheap and easy to do it right that it just doesn’t make sense to do it the other way.

In this case we started doing hybrid cloud, we were unable to address a ton of sites since they were on a made up internal only tld. Plus every thing we could address served up certs we couldn’t trust since we were utilizing services that d

As someone that has been burned by self signed internal only sites. Take the extra 15 minutes and get a proper cert, and domain name for your internal sites. It can save a massive amount of pain later.

I've suddenly started hearing the assertion that forest management is incompetent. But I've not really heard any details as to what is actually wrong and what should be done. Can you please elaborate?

Or more accurately, don't build your house in the middle of a forest that has fire as an important part of its life cycle.

Speaking of the project files, the new csproj format is my favorite thing. We used to always get conflicts in them, and now we basically never do.

WCF support is in Core, we use it extensively to communicate to legacy systems. It is missing some features, like WCF Relays. As for hosting WCF services on Core, we've been trying to distance ourselves from WCF in favor of other tec

I wouldn't be surprised to see VS Code replacing VS entirely. Visual Studio is built on WPF and it's probably as massive of an effort to port all that over as it is to bring Code up to snuff.

Why are you targeting net standard and core in your nuget packages? Targeting standard should be all you need to cover both.

Technical debt, multiple systems using multiple old authentication routines getting slowly upgraded to new auth methods. And no one taking the time to fully understand the ramifications. And honestly it seems like that was the right choice

You’d think after 10 years they could claim the property through adverse possession and clear up any “cloud” over the ownership.

And they know that because your PII (name, address, social) is mapped to a profile, and that profile is also mapped to license plates and Vins. So you can use one to look up the other info in either direction.
