This all reminds me of "AutoPC" from Clarion in the late 90's[1]. A friend of mine had it in his truck, it truly was amazing at the time -- he could make phone calls, play music, render maps on his display, you name it, all h

So I cannot say I have personally reviewed the studies on diversity improving outcomes, but I have a suspicion that it applies only when all other things are equal (as in talent/skills/performance were all as equivalent as they co

what can we do to help? If the answer is hiring more diverse employees for the sake of their ethnicity/cultural backgrounds, we need to accept that it involves a compromise. You no longer are opting to choose based on cost/perform

Worst is the incompetent manager who failed to address it. Very likely both the manager and offensive employee still are there. People don't realize that their resistance to rock the boat prolong the suffering of others who will come a

I cannot fathom these prices.. Homes in tampa, fl go for 110/sqft on the upper end nowadays. It was in the 200s during the housing bubble..

I think some of the most interesting findings is how focused the government is on tackling the drug trade. You have to wonder, what is the fear of drugs which is driving this? Would a nation with unrestricted drug trade would descend into a

I think it's precisely because he is known directly to the engineers that this works. No idea how well it will scale for them -- I wish them well. In most "big" organisations, the C-levels are practically celebrities, everyon

The Server: cowboy tag is from an Erlang web server: https://github.com/ninenines/cowboy/blob/master/src/cowboy_p... I'm guessing around here would be interesting to add a test case to handle.

I also wondered this since the story broke.. Why do they redesign core components like this, instead of just iterating on previous designs? I fight this every day in the enterprise space. My only conclusion is ignorance: sharing previous de

that is one of the great part of being human: diversity of thought. it's a shame most people are convinced that they are "right", and assume there can only be one right model. Leads to people trying to establish these monocul

When building bash (at least for some variants of Fedora), don't you need to specify the prefix as / so that it copies to /bin? Otherwise, I think it's just installed to $ac_default_prefix/bin, which is usually &#x2

not sure I follow this either. So you are setting a variable with a function def which is not supposed to be allowed, and calling bash. Is the naughty thing that the improper function def is supposed to prevent bash to be executed? If so, I

apps can log using the syslog primitives. I do not believe the require network sockets. What syslog-ng decides to do with it (flush to disk, or push over network socket), is no different than the proposal of shared mem to another process (w
