Beautiful and what a fantastic attitude for a company that size. Reminds me of the old HP. Glass is amazing material, if you like this nad you haven't seen them yet google for aerogel.

You're 100% right, that was a bad call. It was the best I could come up with on the spur of the moment but I should have thought about it a bit longer. The weirdness of the request is what angered me to the point of being careless with word

The correct way is a rectification. You leave the old story and point prominently to the correction at the top.

Yes, but 'sure meet you there' wouldn't be quite juicy enough to satisfy the 'that was not private enough so therefore it wasn't a private message' crowd. With the way sharding works I wouldn't be surprised if the whole thing was real but o

Think about what you're asking for here. You are essentially asking to compound the error facebook made by making a screenshot of their private communications and posting it on yet another open forum. That's like asking a rape victim to s

"Same here, my wife just called me crying because a large number of very private conversations she had with friends in the past are now visible on her timeline." Sounds pretty clear to me, I figure that the lady knows which conversation wer

Yes, but there are lots of new developers and not all of them learn as fast as you do. Their managers are always looking at a way to cut cost and the easiest way to do that is to hire cheap, inexperienced people and then train them on the j

It's pretty risky and grim to try to predict where war will break out but my money would be on Pakistan/India. Extra nasty because both are atomic powers.

There is this a nice John Gilmore quote regarding the internet and censorship, I sure hope it works out that way in this case. The big difference between NK and Iran is that in the Iranian case people will know what they are missing.

What a depressing read. At some point robotic warehouses will be the norm. Until then there will be lots of places like this. Commerce often means that the lowest bidder gets to deliver the goods. What they don't tell you is how much the lo

Because it continues to frame the debate in terms of the ggps choosing, which have no bearing on the case. "A government action is wrong/misguided/favors some party and hinders some other" Does not automatically lead to "Government is bad".

You've spent a few thousand words here that all boil down to 'government is evil' without showing how that relates to the case at hand (It's simple: follow the money) and yet you want me to give you reasons so you can spend a few thousand m

Most 'X' as a service concepts have a point where doing it yourself is the more cost efficient option. Backup is no exception to that rule. A service like this works best when you have a manageable amount of very precious data. If you have

Tarsnap is secure, made by someone who understands security. Backups are synonymous with reliability and security. Trusting an unknown entity with free backups on a service made 'for fun' makes me wonder: - how long it will be around - how
