Essentially everyone picks "a" because it's the first az. There's some internal mapping to "your az a is actually datacenter q". You can kind of figure out which AZs match across accounts if you've got e

Much like CoreOS rhymes with Oreos.

The town I went to college in lacked an open container law from 8am->2am (mostly they didn't want people to continue drinking while bars were closed). It was....entirely fine? We'd sometimes get drinks at the bar then walk home

Handling over CA keys wouldn't allow them to mitm things - you'd need the server operators private key for that. This could allow them to issue new certs, but they'd have to be added to certificate transparency to be valid, a

I believe most (if not all) current browsers require public CAs to use a certificate transparency service to prevent this.

I bought my place at a ~5% interest rate for 3% down (about 20k). I'll have PMI for a few years but...well, it's nicer than renting.

Google always does what they decide is best. This is their main fault - they take the inane edge case and design a tool for it. If they made spoons they'd be sharp. You'd cut your mouth on them, but they'd be insanely efficie

My favorite so far was the take home followed by a 3 hour non-coding interview (design/architecture).

The stereo in my 2013 GTI crashed hilariously if you tried to pair a Bluetooth device with anything in the name outisde of [a-zA-Z0-9]. I wish I'd have messed around with it some more before I sold it (it was a silly car to own for how

My favorite patent so far came out of Apple. They received a patent on receiving data, recognizing it was a certain type of data, and performing an action on it. And what was this used for? A user clicks a phone number and it brings up the

Honestly, I could see "sure I'll subscribe for $20/mo, I would like to see more movies", then never going, and thinking you'll use it next month so why cancel now.

It appears he won the court case stating the contract is legal under French last, and now has to fight another one to make them honor it. Courts aren't fast.

It actually predates that even - rfc790 defines it as AMPRNET as part of ARPANET in 1981. I spent a bit of time tonight trying to find the old pre-ARIN iana/isif Usenet group and failed. I'd imagine a list that predates ARIN would

The author of res actually works for Reddit now. I have no idea how much say they have over the project though.

Same here. I use messenger occasionally to speak to some friends who use Facebook almost exclusively for that - I stopped posting anything or paying attention to the feed thing years ago.

Where I live (Seattle), a landlord can enter your apartment immediately if there's an emergency (ie something like it's an apartment and the downstairs neighbor reports water leaking from the ceiling), or with two days (48 hours)

Does support have the ability to restore keeparound refs? Internally (at least as of late 10 series), anything show in the UI (ie, merge requests) is also copied to refs/keeparound/sha1, which isn't presented to users.

In Seattle, where we mostly lack any sort of useable rail, it's entirely normal to have full busses, especially at rush hour. Bunching does happen and I love it because it makes my commute home quiet.

I am in the same boat. All I've ever known is existence, and the thought of not existing anymore is terrifying.

As of Oreo Google doesn't allow this for devices if they're to pass CTS without users jumping through multiple hoops first.

IME, outsourcing companies do this so you have to go through them to talk to the individual attached to the resume, not for any moral purpose. I've been on the receiving end of that one - a recruiting firm was sending out a (poorly) an

Having all the Android devices they no longer sell is also pretty silly. I doubt anyone wants to buy a Nexus One today. Also Nexus Q never made it past user testing (they never sold them, they were a free gift for IO, it was a horrible Chro

Chromecast displays a pin on the display it's attached to and requires that pin to pair to a new account. I'm unsure what (if anything) Google home does (I remember "your home device played a sound", I don't remembe

Any chance at an invite to the k8s beta for a large-ish open source project?

Maybe I should run. I wonder if I'd stand a chance against sawant.

This is something I argue with myself a lot about. I work as a software engineer for a large non-tech company. They pay well, but I could easily go to a tech company and make 20% more. Except...well, in 18 months I've never had to work

They wipe smart before giving you drives. Ovh does the same. Most drives have a serial interface you can connect to with a special cable to do it.
