There is a team, that is maintaining something important, underfunded or understaffed. To fix, apply more resources. Well, you can perform surgery, remove team and rebuild, but the correct amount of resources (funding, staffing) must be pro

Considering the overpopulation of earth, not sure why anyone would prioritize "producing offspring". Maybe someone driven by very base biological urges, sure. But if you just put some thought into it: why bring a child into world

I am curious if you mean the "chance of anything" as objective, or subjective number here. 0.1% means, after approaching 5000 women, only 5 (1 in 1000) decided to give you a shot. Or was the number higher? (And you are using 0.1%

What we need, a function that is AWS maintained and supported, that basically is AWS responsibility - that if it did not work - failed to shut down service that was consuming all the budget, they eat the cost.

It's funny how the weird behavior is a "glitch" until you narrow down exact circumstances when it occurs and then if the issue can be reproduced reliably, then it's a straight-up bug.

When you sold 1 car yesterday, and sell 2 today, you have doubled your sales. It's misleading to talk about growth in terms of percentage points (or doubling/tripling, etc), if it's somewhat low numbers.

yeah, but if you really need to store 3 states, why not make 1 first-class concept instead of awkwardly combining two?

I am not sure why it's relevant to point this out. Actually I think it's rather heartless. Don't you have some ideals to strive for? Coming from Berlin (which has sizable population of homeless) it was shocking to see many pe

This makes zero sense, and sounds more corporate slave-ownership. If you are going to pay the going hourly rate for 168 hours a week, yeah maybe there's something. But if you only pay for 40 hours a week, that's what you get: not

No, the outcome is really simple. You had your DS420j humming along yesterday, then this DSM update comes around and installs overnight, and this morning you have no access to your files. Synology provides no recourse, effectively bricking

Sue them for damages and see what sticks. Causing data loss like this is inexcusable. As a customer in Germany I sure hope the consumer protection agency (Verbraucherzentrale) could make them sing.

Philips also sells an actual wake-up light alarm clock(s) (such as HF3519/01 ). They have smaller models too which probably would be OK to pack for travel.

It's way too late for that. The unrepairable goods trend is too far gone. I think it's very appropriate that government steps in like this: the message to manufacturers is "you reap what you sow".

For me, the man-made disaster is the amount of dirty coal the Germany burns, after shutting down their nuclear power plants. And from pressure by the Greens, no less! Man made disaster is the prices for electricity we pay in Germany, while

I find it unsettling how one-sided the article is, if it's a "showdown" I expect the same effort to be put in JS side of things to maintain some pretense of fairness.
