So was I (San Jose location.) One of their mistakes was requiring "classes" before using any equipment - then restricting the hours to 9 - 5. I phoned in a complaint but nothing was done. Tip: the members who can afford it are wor

This is a great article - maybe the best that I've seen in terms of depth and balance about Detroit (I'm from there.) Both Detroit and Oakland allowed rain and rodents to heavily damage their showcase train stations. They are tryi

1) AWS and GCP have their own datacenters with their own custom switches and routers, etc. 2) Sure, as a DBA, I prefer dedicated servers with SSD. If you don't have a DBA, then RDS/Aurora are ok too. For production, ensure you hav

Woz was scary good at both hw and sw (author of Apple BASIC.) If you have time, go through his various Apple documents online. I believe he was never the same after his small plane crashed. (Back then, wealthy people used small planes like

This story occurred in 1956, before the current aviation safety culture developed. Very different time. Howard Hughes was also quite the cowboy, involved in numerous accidents, some with fatalities. Even today, farmers do aerial application
