Unfortunately, we're lumped in with "Pacific", so all those developers in San Bernardino and Sacramento are dragging us down.

On the surface, the points you cite are inflammatory and often used a priori to justify paying women less. It's a bit irresponsible after that slide not to put the rest of the results into the context of gender. Are women represent

That's why change orders should happen for anything that isn't specified at the time of signing the contract. They can be zero cost, they can be clarification change orders, they can swap scope, or they can involve additional c

In addition, to have the same quality of life in China or other "developing" countries is much more expensive than the simple comparisons. The American has enough money to take the family on the annual pilgrimage to Disneyland or

Ruby, as generally served with Rails, has historically been much slower than SQL-in-the-page PHP with APC/etc. One example[1], from 37 Signals back in 2009, showed a 320ms response time (gack!) with 9,000 requests per minute on 10 4v

Reviewing, revising, and summarizing are the keys. The problem with taking notes on the computer is that it's "in there" so it rarely gets edited. That act of touching the notes again reinforces the information in our brains

When a lot of these tools were first implemented, to get enough entropy, you would have to type and move your mouse for a long time to generate a 1024-bit key. I remember really, really hating that process. Now, you kids these days with yo

Something very similar to this has been used in the military to "bridge" network barriers at differing security levels. The US Navy uses "SDR" (Secure Data Replication) to transfer content under control. You could get a

And 90% of the time, people want to revoke their old keys because they had a pressing one-time need to have a PGP key (vendor exchange, whatever) and lost the private key without generating and saving a revocation certificate. This is a pla

I suspect that it's because 4096 is the largest permitted RSA key on most software right now. There is no 11 on that dial.

Not to be snarky, but have you tried using google? http://www.biglumber.com/ I get a couple requests a year when someone comes through town. It could do with more participation, though. :-)

There's also the paranoia of non-repudiability with signed messages. In general, there is minimal benefit just signing a document. I don't care if someone I work with is spoofed because it will become obvious very quickly. It&#x

The post to which you were replying was amusing at the cost of a lack of rigor. Bruce generally does not sign/encrypt his email because he views email as a low-security communications mechanism anyway.[1] He generally advises a rationa

Or the early 1990s if you were unfortunate enough to have an Indigo. Mid-1990s if you were really unfortunate and had an Indy, or were fortunate enough to have an Indigo2 with decent gfx. About the same amount of RAM then, too. :-)

The A-mount Alphas are not mirrorless. They have a semi-transparent, non-moving mirror that steals about 1/3 of a stop to send light to the AF sensor. It gives most of the advantages of the DSLRs (phase-detect AF, but that's cre

In addition, the VG-900 shows that the e-mount will accommodate a 35mm sensor. Mind you, the e-mount lenses are almost universally crap, but I've had good luck using my NEX-7 as a digital back for my M glass.

Because they're not yanking yet and the equity growth is still attractive enough to keep unvested "low performers" from leaving. Google don't have to cut costs to make Wall Street happy. They need to grow and increase

If you don't know the routine, it won't be funny anyway. It's an easy way of excluding people under 40. Like when we talk about being afraid to visit Northern Ireland or getting nuked.

It was better with the credit buried. Those who know, know. There was this delightful, hopeful, uncertainty at first. "Is he going to pull a Louis CK riff? I think he is...yes!" Then it was a matter of seeing if he was going t

What many candidates don't realize is that the hiring manager has probably gone through 1,000 or more resumes from recruiters or retained search agencies, phone screened 20-50, and interviewed 5-10 to fill one position. "Pay me to

It was an oft-quoted meme in the 80s and 90s (and possibly earlier) that all the seats on flights from the continental US to Hawai'i were reward travel.
