So just extrapolating on this example - would the best results in any negotiations be achieved when both parties speak a language that is foreign to both of them? In that case both are taking more rational decisions, ignoring the emotional

Is there anyone else who thinks the "5 star" rating is somewhat flawed, or is it just me? I think, the problem is that the scale is all on the positive side, but people are trying to use it to give negative rating. So naturally th

The host is provisioned using some other automation tool, then when it comes up, it runs puppet agent. Puppet agent makes cert sign request (at which point csr file is created on puppet server). Puppet server doesn't have this host in

And slowly a humble `wget -O - <url>|sh` grows into a foot long command with user agent settings, save first/execute later, etc, etc... Why not use a package manager then? Added bonus - version control.

I agree with this 100%. And here's to all replies that say it's as secure as a package: it's only partly about security. The other part is version control. I can install a specific version of an RPM relatively easily, but wge

Yes, I agree, icons are much faster to recognise than words. But I think we're limited to only a handful of icons that are universally (??) recognisable. And now more often than not I find hovering mouse pointer over an icon just to fi

I agree with you. IMHO bubble level on a phone is more of a gimmick than a useful thing. Ok to establish approximate value, but noone should be using is as a precision tool. Even for hanging pictures if you want it done properly.
