Multiple people have told me recently that they believe there is a big surge going on based on how many people they have heard have gotten covid after schools started up.

The title of this post is too mild - it's not just the $1000 fine but the fact that they are asking for the shutdown of his business, one that he has run for many years. It's ridiculously broad legally and needs to be struck down

I left in the credit card fees exodus and never came back (unlike most who returned after they rolled back their sudden fee change). There are probably just a handful like me who did not return.

More like the error reporting service was down too. The status page was probably serving from a static page.

I regularly work on servers with 768 GB of ECC RAM. These aren't very common but they do exist. I am trying to upgrade to a terabyte of ECC RAM. On Amazon, they sell a 32x32GB package of ECC RAM for about $10k. https://www.a

Yeah, wow, exaggerations everywhere ! Very distasteful. His LinkedIn profile says: "I’m responsible for taking Go Language, Docker and MongoDB from niche technologies to widespread mainstream enterprise adoption." W O W, really ?

Apparently, the Youtube API documented here - https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/videos - returns both likes and dislikes. All Google did was remove the rendering of that API response field onto th

The mystery about the wife's illness and cause of death is actually a very good endorsement of HIPAA health information privacy laws. Not too long ago, medical records were leaked and all sorts of privacy was violated. I am happy to se

Is there an extra fee for this Stripe Tax integration extra ? If not a separate fee, will they refund partially given that no alerts or alarms were raised for this behaviour ? All I can say is they probably built this in a hurry and the wor

These cannot be created from the Google Cloud Console Web interface - need to programmatically do "stuff". EC2 has it right on their Web Console.

I would think the well publicized early failures of large Lithium ion battery technology (787 burning down while docked at a gate, the various Tesla fires and Samsung Note phones being banned from planes) would have taught enough lessons to

HERE BE DRAGONS. From the article comes this nugget of knowledge. quote This problem combines two of latter-day Windows' most annoying tendencies. First, the operating system relentlessly promotes and prioritizes Microsoft's first

Patent trolls - I suspect they either settled with or removed a patent infringment. Non Disclosure Agreement prevents them from releasing any information.

I was able to read only the abstract - "Rent or Buy article for $8.99". Brings up the question, what does "rent an article" mean ?

So, the justice system in Japan enforces additional restrictions after a person is out on bail ? He couldn't meet his wife seems like an unreasonable condition for someone out on bail. Also, is the justice system in Japan so backed up

I have walked past that tree probably more than a hundred times and I never knew it was that old or the originator of the name of the city. Its not very tall or massive, unlike the giant trees in the park on Lytton Ave. I always liked that

Its good to get this data point - from my familiarity with first names and last names, both Hristo and Georgiev are fairly unique and almost unheard of. The combination of both would qualify as a VERY unique name in my worldview. But, in Bu

Love the disclaimer ("but not a criminal, as far as I know"). Have you read those bizarre fake facts like "it is illegal to eat oranges in your bathtub in California" ? If you haven't, I am sure you have broken myri

When I worked at Google, there was always this sinister edge to all corporate events and communications and their culture, in general. It was like that Star Trek episode - everything is paradise unless you commit a transgression. Any transg

I see the distinction you are making, and it is a very fine one. One hand you have "deleting and not using Facebook" and on the other hand "not using Facebook" - I would say they are almost equivalent to Facebook (since

Exactly ! I don't know why folks want to have it both ways - you cannot separate the good Facebook features from its bad privacy violating features - folks need to choose what shade of gray they are ok with. Facebook started off as a v

Thats not off topic, in fact it actually helps add depth to the original post that this is an automation problem common to Google and Facebook and potentially other mega cash-generating corporations who would rather err on the side of the c

That is a BIG problem with this article - it looks like Chinese efforts to infiltrate all maps with their idea of Taiwan are pervasive and this author has unwittingly used their version of map data.

I was going to ask the same question about Perkeep - I need to find an open source, free and well maintained media storage manager and Perkeep sounded interesting to fork and add my own special sauce. Good to know its going to be maintained

Ah...even assuming they could do 6 sessions in every 24 hours (and it took only one session per pilot), thats going to take a really long time to get the required pilot crews certified.
