Smaller teams aren't usually so concerned with where their SLAs come from, as they are with just having software that works—or rather, software releases that are incentivized by some force or another to be both stable and fresh.

So, for small teams, I see a likely move more toward the model we see with "community-made verified-build Docker container images": a GitHub repo containing the container-image formula for the release, that many small teams depend on and submit PRs to when vulnerabilities occur.

While not ideal, this is far better than the Ubuntu PPA style of "some arbitrary person's build of the release." It doesn't give you anyone to blame or bill for downtime, but it does give you frequent releases and many-sets-of-eyes that hopefully make your downtime quite small.

It's a bit like the atomized "bazaar" equivalent to the "cathedral" of a distro package-management team, now that I think about it. Each verified-build formula repo is its own little distro with exactly one distributed package, where anyone with a stake in having good releases for the software can "join" that distro as one of its maintainers. :)
I'd imagine the NSA would be pretty happy about this.

This is a bit hyperbolic. I'm a big fan of Elixir and Phoenix, and most of my future client work is going to be done in Elixir if I have anything to say about it. But making broad, poorly supported statements about its comparison to other languages and platforms is neither necessary nor does it make the Elixir community seem rational. Cargo-culting has done a lot of damage to the credibility of platforms of various stripes in recent years, and one of the first signs of that is preposterous statements like "X obsoletes Y". Stick with "X is really good at <feature> and if you do A, B, or C you should check it out."
Sorry, what should I be looking at on there? If you want evidence for eating high-carb vegan over low-carb keto, read dietary guidelines from any non-profit nutritional or health authority. They all uniformly and strongly advise people away from animal products and on to low-fat starchy vegetables and fruit.
Responding to security incidents – an IT admin’s guide
A tsunami would have relatively little effect on a pod suspended/anchored to the sea floor. They only get violent when they reach the shallows and come onto land. It'd have more effect on the shore connection point where the data and power go into the ocean. These could be buried up to the shore though and anything above ground secured in a sealed bunker though that doesn't solve the problem of keeping the pods powered through the power outage after a tsunami.
They're probably betting that they can't maintain the peg.
>"fucked up" blames the developers - did you really intend to say they fucked up, by providing a non-critical service that's very usable almost all the time and has cache coherency issues occasionally. Missing chat history is not a serious technical deficiency if it can be simply re-requested. If you really wanted to rant at them and say their service is fucked up, then downvotes are deserved.

I'm guessing you don't use IRCCloud very much then?

It's not just cache coherency issues, IRCCloud slows to a crawl/stops working entirely when there's bigger splits.

And when are the developers not to blame? If you write code that doesn't work it tends to be your fault that it doesn't work, unless of course management forced you to write bad code.

>If you really wanted to rant at them and say their service is fucked up, then downvotes are deserved

No, I'm just annoyed by how he completely sidestepped the actual underlying issues, e.g their service being unable to support their current user counts.

>What do you think the judge should say...

I think the judge should evaluate, with the best available knowledge, the degree to which this approach is likely to be effective, and weigh that against the invasion of privacy it entails.

Clearly, he should say yes. My entire argument stems from the fact that the most credible sources place the probability in the neighborhood of zero.

I'll leave it as an exercise to the reader to do this bit of research himself, but here's a starting point: http://www.nationaljournal.com/s/33264/snowden-frances-intru...

I can have containers, but these containers are still manageable, not black boxes.

Furthermore, since packages come as declarative recipes, one can try to reproduce binaries (see guix challenge command). Otherwise you are at complete mercy of the packagers.

For very large deployments, Docker-like containers are fine. But for desktop applications I think it's not the way to go.

We know far less about nutrition than we think we do. So if you know about risks and are careful about it, as far as I am concerned, there is nothing wrong with trying out various things. Regarding meat though, a lot of it is panic.

The problem is that it's very hard to conduct proper studies analysing this. 'Observational studies' are useless, because if I take a randomized group of meat-eaters versus vegans, of course the latter group will be significantly more healthy. Vegans are most likely more concerned about their health in general which means less smoking, less alcohol being consumed, healthier sleep, they buy higher quality food in general, due to lack of choice when out in public they cook more themselves (they won't stop at a fast food restaurant), et cetera ... and then there is the Placebo effect, which is very powerful and should not be under-estimated.

The scientific data is not as clear as one might think, and "nutritionists" in general are pseudo-scientists at their best since you can find a study for anything. If not with humans, then with mice, or maybe just some study with some cells. The same with internet sites by the way. And Atkins strictly speaking is not the same as the traditional Ketogenic Diet. Regarding books about nutrition for example, I happen to agree with this reviewer of "The China Study" (not the original one, you'll see) http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R3UR35AKTEYW43/ref...

If anyone wants to find serious information about nutrition, you should search for meta-studies, for example by the Cochrane Collaboration, and then you should read the abstract very carefully and not insert your wishful thinking into it.
> China has a big us against the world mentality.

It is a typical pattern on authoritarian mentalities and regimes. You'll find the same in Russia, widely spread among the Latin American left and the supporters of far right Republican candidates (Trump & Cruz).

The best to do is to "give them enough rope so that they hang themselves", unfortunately. Authoritarian, centralized and anti free trade regimes end up broken because they suffocate economic diversity, see Argentina, Venezuela and Russia.

The whole question is determining what "normal" (and thus "extreme") actually is, so statements like "extrema are not good for your health" are just plain silly in this context.

In fact, it's even sillier than that since extreme bursts of energy (which most of us call exercise) are demonstrably very good for your health.

If by "extrema" you meant "excessive things", then your point is tautological.

> But isn't boosting the security of PC systems a selling point of the UEFI/Secure boot implementation? Or was that all a lie?

SecureBoot is a farce. 99.99% of users will never be the target of the attack it supposedly prevents and the other less than 0.01% of users know who they are.

On top of that it doesn't even work. The premise is for it to be used in combination with full disk encryption (since otherwise the attacker could just remove the drive), to protect the integrity of the boot shim that prompts you for the decryption password so the attacker can't replace it with one that gives the attacker the password. But there is necessarily an unencrypted analog connection between the human and the computer and the attacker can still capture the password that way.
From what I know, most birds have a need to bond with someone. If it isn't another bird (parrots of different species can bond), it becomes their owner (or someone in the owners family). The bird picks who they bond with, so you might be the owner, but it doesn't always mean they bond with you.

You sort of replace their mate in the wild. That means they can also become a little jealous of other people when they vie for your attention.

If you're going to use a grid, it's typically a starting point, when you're looking at a blank canvas, blank screen, blank piece of paper. And as your work takes shape, you no longer need the grid. The finished work may still have some pleasing hints of underlying structure, even though the grid has been taken away. You may want to shift things just above or just below alignment to create a little interesting tension, which you can see in Cezanne's work. But usually the grid is completely gone by the time you're done. Most of the time, it's not there to "rule" the composition from start to finish. The grid is typically a reference point.

Anyway, my real complaint about grids is all the technical debt it adds, and in the case of Bootstrap it's bad, in my opinion. And it's totally unnecessary. If you want two columns, just work from 50%, you don't need a complex system for that. It's harder to make changes when there's a cryptic grid system in place. When I see code like class="grid-12c" next to class="grid-9b" I'm thinking what the hell? Is that supposed to be human-readable? To me, it seems like a bad trend. If people want grids so bad, then why did we stop using tables 15 years ago? Seriously. I thought floated divs were a step in the right direction, more akin to how designers/artists work, like I can just imagine Matisse saying, "Float that margin a little lower. Perfect!"
>China's economic growth simply isn't sustainable, and that's even if it was true growth

People have been naysaying China for a while but it's kept merrily growing. Mostly it's because the Chinese tend culturally to be pro education and hard working but in China were reduced to very low incomes by Mao's communism and have since been recovering and getting back towards the kind of economy they have in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and the like.

GDP per capita in China is $6,800 (up from $951 in 2000) against $32k in Taiwan and $55k in Singapore so there's a way to go. A housing crash will probably just be a blip for a while. They'd have to turn back to Mao to really muck things up.

Hyper-responders.

(if anyone more knowledgeable can correct me, by all means do so, because I don't even know if this is true)

Supposedly, 1/3 of the population are hyper-responsive to dietary cholesterol - as in, consuming it raises their blood cholesterol. The other 2/3 can eat a high animal fat diet and see little to no change in blood cholesterol.

If true, those numbers are probably enough to clinically prove that a high fat diet is, in general, bad, while simultaneously giving millions of people the ability to go keto and say, "see, it's healthy, doctors don't know what they're talking about!"

The problem is that most people don't know if they're hyper-responders so promoting a high fat diet as healthy for everyone is irresponsible.

I'm just talking about cholesterol here. Avoiding red meat and eating plant fiber seem to provide benefits besides just lowering cholesterol.

It can. Or it can result in spec which helps everyone instead of just MS alone. Depends on how it's done. Vulkan is done from scratch, and so far I see no signs of them making mistakes of OpenGL. I guess we'll see more once it's released. Either way, what's the alternative? There is none, unless of course you work for MS and envision them controlling everything.

Not every thing can be taught by yourself. And the school might not be best place to learn computer programming. But we sure do need the others to improve. My ego leaves a lot of room for the others because I need the others too.

You may willingly give up privacy, but many users do so unwittingly. Their ignorance does not make the current state of affairs just.

Ignorance of privacy concerns on public networks is not the same as pretending the transmitted data was safe in the first place.

The article and controversy are attempting to call attention to the mechanisms in place that are a threat to privacy of all users. Your response was "well anyone who doesn't want their data exposed should know better." This is a disturbing attitude.
