In terms of hygiene... Don't Italy and Iran both practice a kiss greeting? A ka "la bise"? Koreans have a rich history of sharing meals and eating from the same pot. Could hardly call those practices hygenic. But the point is

Not sure what you're looking at, but the S&P500 e-mini futures are still trading. No breakers were hit.

They ran FreeBSD because Jan came from Yahoo, and that's what Yahoo ran.

Getting elected to office in SF is huge for one's political ambitions, even if they don't do anything meaningful to help the city.

SFMTA is on the south intersection of Van Ness and Market. They turn right off of Van Ness then right on 11th to pull into the garages (in the SFMTA building and 1455 Market). Check out the overhead map of Van Ness/Market and it become

I was using the terms socialist, progressive, and democratic machine to describe the various parts of the SF "left" voter population.

Isn't that area part of the gang injunction no-go zone? That was federal involvement IIRC.

SF hasn't had a "tough on crime" DA in the last 60 years. To think that Boudin would be a huge change from the previous do-nothing predecessors is laughable. He simply played up the compassion angle to court the socialist and

Simply not hearing of something doesn't change the facts. Commercial vehicles are exempt from the ban. Pickup trucks are commercial vehicles in CA. It's that simple. https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/deta

The article is also incorrect on one detail. Market south of 10th to Van Ness is closed. Only the northbound lane is open from Van Ness to 10th. This is so the SFMTA employees can still drive to work and park in their garages every day.

I meant that the "car ban" extended to motorcycles, not the truck loophole.

If you want to talk corruption, just look at the areas that changed. Notice that one block of Market north of Van Ness still allows cars in one direction? Know why? It's because that's where the SFMTA HQ is, and they all drive to

Pickup trucks are OK to drive down Market St. They're registered as commercial vehicles in CA. You can tell because they have only a single letter on their license plate.

Every pickup truck registered in California is also considered a commercial vehicle. They're exempt from the "car ban" on Market. The car ban also extends to motorcycles. Since electric kick scooters are allowed, would electr

Backups are easier/faster? A machine with a 5TB table will take forever to dump with a single thread, but 5 servers with 1TB shards will dump it more quickly.

It also doesn't make sense to turn your millions of residential cable customers into DDoS cannons. Best to leave them as DDoS pea-shooters. Though on second thought, it might help out your ratios.

Why would anyone block all of Akamai? This is the problem with user-generated-lists; sometimes the user clearly has no idea what they're doing.

My Brazilian in-laws maintain that the site of Brasilia was chosen because it's exactly in the middle of the country and not close to the established power cities of Rio and Sao Paulo. True? They don't have many nice things to say

Of the 3 mentioned, I doubt they'd lose more than 5% of revenues.

> Security is incredibly complex and minor/subtle mistakes can destroy companies For better or for worse, that's not the case. These days, security mistakes just end up in 2 years of free credit monitoring. Ironic case in point

Same thing in SF. Owners are responsible for maintaining the sidewalk, and the city will let you know when you need to repair them.

In the truest sense of property law, only the pre-RIR allocations (aka legacy allocations) are actually owned by companies. RIR allocations are assigned for use by companies, but ranges are still owned by the regional registrars. You'r

It doesn't seem that the "aggressor" here was very aggressive and remained largely passive. No laws are absolute and that's what judges are for. I doubt the "failure to render aid" law in Germany is interpreted

IANAL, but you can't physically eject someone from a space in most civilized countries even if they're doing something wrong. Call the polizei/police. There are exceptions for immediate threat to life, but you can't go w
