That's the reason to have your DNS at at least two different companies, working in tandem. In a case where one is down, your Unicorn Corp doesn't go down with it.
it's not a standard JSON, it's a `console.dir()`, keys are not quoted hence any JSON parser would choke on it, and due to the change in console methods, you can have "..." in long arrays. It's unparseable (not a valid JSON), and ungreppable too (not full arrays are printed).
It could also be geographic. Their update did say "some customers". I'm in New York and I'm also seeing the outage.
Honestly, I would rather live in a Brutalist house than a McMansion. At least it might be competent in both architecture and construction, if a bit eccentric.

Most of the examples I can find online of Brutalist homes are actual mansions, however, so it's hard to compare apples to apples.

I always wanted to get into EU3, but it seemed massively obtuse for a beginner and since I was running it on a Mac through Steam, the tutorials didn't work properly so I couldn't figure anything out.

And then I read how much of a time-sink it is (compared to Civ) once you get going and I think that I was probably lucky it didn't work in a lot of ways!

It would be useful to compare the proportions difference between non-remote and remote instead of the absolute popularity.

Example: Since SQL dominates most job offers already, it's gonna dominate also remote jobs offers. What you want is to look at technologies that are more predominant in remote than non-remote.

You can still start in a very similar place.

C isn't a bad language, and is far nicer to learn than C++. It'll bite hard if you get things wrong though.

Most of got a start sat at a terminal in front of a BSD or SVR4 flavour Unix, or a BSD Sun Workstation. Never occured to me so much would still exist 25 years later!

If you want to understand BSD and all the *nix family "The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System" is a great starting point. You'll understand what the kernel is doing, why and how. The earlier version of the book that I've had for years is online ("Design and ... 4.4 BSD OS") at freebsd. I think the online version is complete, but not certain. That and a few other classic nix books, like W Richard Stevens, give a decent grounding.

You probably have a harder time replicating being surrounded by semi-benevolent greybeards nudgng your habits in the preferred direction! Early newsgroups were free of spam and full of people to answer. IRC and web came later. Needing to consider security came later too!

Reading through BSD code, a lot of the core code is very good, and starting to mess around with simple things like MUDs and simple client server things will put you in a reasonable place. We couldn't just download from web, so had to write a simple in-office chat service, test tools etc.

What you won't get easily is the need and desire to minimise memory use, or CPU cycles, or even pack data, so some of the effort just isn't bothered with. Regularly needing to consider that made us naturally wary of being wasteful. In truth I wish some of it were still around when waiting needless time for some app to update some small data from cloud.

The Riddle of Experience vs. Memory
One of the best things about the Amiga version was the music/soundtrack. It was such high quality, and always seemed to match perfectly what was happening in the game - from the jangly violins and upbeat folky "exploration" songs, to the mournful pipe music that played once a battle was dragging on a bit.

Another one of those games that taught me loads about the history of a situation, as much as it was loads of fun.

The only thing that wasn't fun is that the game seemed to corrupt floppy disk 2 every once in a while, even when it wasn't write-enabled.

Not him, but yes, I absolutely do. Pre-processors mainly have the effect of forcing you to have a build tool workflow, and the nice thing about web design is that you don't need stuff like that.

It's amazing that a one-person-project(well, it's more than one person now but the core part is really just one guy) can develop such a beautiful system that actually feel better than angular2 and reactjs and who knows how many are behind those two projects.
I agree but unfortunately it's not a very popular design pattern these days.

Because of this I basically have no applications installed on my android smartphone since even trivial applications often end up requiring ridiculous amounts of privileges (often for relatively minor features) and of course there's no way to fine tune what you allow and what you don't.

Honestly I think that's a terrible habit to give your users, just ignore the privilege list since there's nothing you can do about it and click "sure whatever".

Devs should have to justify why the app needs the feature and I should be able to disable it if it's not critical for the application to work correctly. It would make it a bit harder to write and test those apps but it's not like it's rocket science either...

That jobs are posted with a salary and what company is actually going to offer are different stories. There is a lot of time wasters around. A lot of companies use that as a bait and hope that once you go through lengthy interview process you will agree to a significantly lower offer from the advertised one and will make up bs reasons for that. One of the best I heard is that after completion of the interview process company said "our requirements changed in the meantime and we want to hire more developers that we initially needed, therefore we can offer x, so that we can fill all the positions", where x is significantly lower amount.
