Maybe. Remember it is new code. In principle it should be no worse than constraining a user; there are still risks of kernel compromise (one just the other day). I would check if you use any kernel modules that are not in the main tree though. Also I don't believe it is a full root, ie it can only do operations that have been whitelisted (eg creating other namespaces), otherwise you could just use mknod and overwrite the host harddrive. So your code you want to run as root may not work. You can do stuff like open low numbered ports though if you open a network namespace, so long as the host sets up bridging for it.

I also own a Thinkpad and while the Fn/Ctrl position is annoying I haven't been using the default left Ctrl key in a while anyway, simply because I map Caps-Lock as a Ctrl key.

The Ctrl key is so often used by developers, especially when one uses Emacs shortcuts (not only in Emacs itself, but also in Readline-enabled shells or other software), that you can easily get RSI. Remaping Caps-Lock as a Ctrl is a necessity and once you use it you'll never want to go back to the default left Ctrl.
I'm seeing 1.5 to 1.6 secs. Is that due to my crappy internet connection or is that simply what it is?

Because 1.5 secs per request, and more for somewhat more complex operations, seems long to me. As instance startup time it is impressive though! But they are designed to die after each request, right? Or is that just this example?
Managed C++ was chock full of __keywords for .NET memory management - like Apple's ARC in the worst case, except there were no good cases. While it probably was a clean superset of C++, it was painfully hideous.

CLI/C++, by which Microsoft replaced Managed C++, added new operators and keywords without much regard for backwards compatibility (=without underscores).

The implication being that people value code readability over __backward __compatibility. I have no data on the popularity of Managed C++ vs CLI/C++ though. I was only a fanboy because CLI/C++ looks awesome and I generally enjoy Herb Sutter's work, but then got sucked into the Appleverse.

And you won't accomplish anything by shutting down Silk Road. Most of drugs that get in a country don't do it by packages sent by Silk Road. LE (Law enforcement) is already low on resources, so they better use them for bigger 'operators'.

The Wikipedia article pointed to [1] cites the heritability of IQ from 0.5 to 0.9, settling in between 0.75 and 0.85. I had always believed it to be 0.5 and was surprised at how heritable IQ is, with 57% to 73% of offspring intelligence being explicable by the parents' IQs. Note that "job performance, income, and literacy" are predicted, to varying degrees, by childhood IQ.

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heritability_of_IQ
as i said in my other comment. that will only work for idempotent things: if you like to change, say, ' to ", the workflow in the article works, but git add -p won't.
You don't need init in each container, and the encouraged model of having a whole distro in a container is bonkers. Play around with clone(2)/unshare(2) directly, and it is fairly simple. All you need to know about pid 1 is if it terminates your namespace goes, and orphan processes will reparent to it (and some signals are blocked). If you have a single process then this doesn't matter really. You can do all this from Python I expect, I have done it all from Lua with no issues.

> Any job an illegal immigrant can get, a felon can as well.

Do you have any idea how difficult it is for undocumented workers? There is no upward mobility in their jobs. They either get documented, get exploited, or go home. Why should a person who served their 20 years again be pushed to a level where they are exploited, (unpaid wages, unsafe work environments) as undocumented workers often are? This will perpetuate more societal problems than assisting individuals with their recovery.
SR would have to be brain dead not to realize that this is an issue. As maxwellhansen, one has to purchase a token to become a seller which are quite expensive. Furthermore, there is a limited number of tokens and the only way to get a token is to buy it from someone (who will then lose said token). Therefore it is pretty hard to become a seller.

On a similar note, one must wonder to what extent those who tweet are even local. For Napa, CA, which is mentioned in a comment, that would probably not be the case. Another example is Nevada, which, according to their map, must be something like the second happiest state in the union. I live in Nevada, and I am indeed very happy, but that's because I live in Tahoe, a rather atypical corner of the state. For Nevada as a whole, I am sure the result is due to things like tourists in Vegas going ga-ga over all Das Blinkenlighten, or gamblers tweeting when they win but not when they lose, the latter being the default.

Is there really a stigma?

I guess, like anything, the question is why you're doing it.

If you're doing it for $20 then that's perhaps more serving of a stigma than doing it to help out because you have friends who are unable have children due to the guy. Certainly you'd be a hero to them and wouldn't have a stigma.

Why is always the question to ask before you judge

"I hear that a lot, but the truth is that the next Perl Harbour has already happened. It was a surprise aerial attack on a strategic port city back in 2001. Almost 3,000 people were killed."

The Pearl Harbour attack was an attempt by a government to cripple an enemy's capability to project power in the Pacific ocean, with the attacker's intent to then establish dominance in that region. What you describe was nothing of the sort and to call it another Pearl Harbour is simply wrong.

In countries where the incrimination standard is reasonable doubt, that you received a package addressed to you is not really a slam dunk proof that you ordered the contents.

Furthermore, in countries where you enjoy a right to refuse to say anything that may incriminate you, you may simply refuse to explain how or why the package was sent to you. The prosecution will need to positively prove that you ordered it, which is a much harder task if the seller doesn't cooperate.

Assuming you have the Early 2011 Macbook Pro, the change will be as follows:

CPU - Quad Core 45w to Dual Core low voltage (big change for CPU intense work, but for 90% of what people do you won't notice the difference)

GPU - The Dell only has integrated Graphics - so any gaming will be worse than on the Macbook.

Screen - Increase in resolution from either 1440x900 or 1680x1050 to 1920x1080, and gaining the IPS panel. Going from 16x10 to 16x9 (this really annoys some people)

HDD - change from traditional drive to SSD (assuming you didn't put an SSD into your Macbook). If you already had an original Apple SSD in the Macbook, then it will just be faster.

Memory - lose the potential for 16gb, limited to 8gb.

Optical bay - lose the optical drive, lose the potential for dual drives.

Battery life - can't give you a good answer on this, without a review in Linux. In Windows, the Dell can loop video for 325 minutes, which is similar to the Macbook Pro. Under heavier load, the Dell would last longer but do less processing work during that time. Once you add Linux to the mix, I'd guess a 30% decrease in battery life.

Build quality - the Dell is good, but not great. I would give a slight advantage to the Macbook.

The main way in which these predictions were off the mark is that media distribution in Cronkite's 2001 is still a one-way street, from news organization to individual news consumer. His future world missed the extent to which arguably the most important content generation is done by the consumers themselves -- Twitter, YouTube, blogs, forums, etc. (Okay, there was no Twitter or YouTube in 2001. But you know what I mean.)

Maybe, but voluntarism is only part of the moral equation.

So-called genetic "designer babies" are widely considered morally problematic but that process is totally voluntary; and in general eugenics provides an echo-chamber for certain discriminatory beliefs. In a very strong way what we're talking about is capitalism, which does the same thing -- unregulated markets adapt to whatever discrimination allows them to have more customers.

So I agree with the comment a couple levels above -- there is a strong batch of ethical concerns here beyond just "there are kids out there who biologically trace you as their father/mother" and it's a bit of a pity that those concerns were not strongly addressed.
It's trivial to create a "magnetic well" with three to four strong magnets balancing against each other at a fixed point, with gravity holding a ferromagnetic object against it. Altering their directions and strengths would allow that single-point "well" to move just behind the pen. If the hardened material could withstand the force one would be able to prevent the drooping witnessed in the video. I'm not sure how one would maintain multiple wells simultaneously from a single plane. That or move the pen slower. Clearly, magnets win.

FWIW, if you do need ELB support right away (and keep in mind that you'll have to look at it from each server's point of view), you can probably use https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks/aws (and use the elastic_lb resource), and hook it into your own cookbook for setting up whatever ELB's you want (then set up your custom cookbook repo for your stack.)

(I'm trying to say that this platform is incredibly flexible, and you can reuse what's already out there. If you need support for X, Y, or Z, then you can likely write in support with Chef.)

I think the funniest thing is that sure, we can detect an asteroid barreling towards us, but what the hell are we going to do about it? Maybe it's better not to know. Some things are so completely out of our control that knowing it's going to happen could only cause more suffering.

I think the problem is that humans (or most animals, I guess) are just reacting to stimuli around them 99% of the time. So if something bad happens, we tend to waste time and resources making sure that same exact thing won't happen again when life is adapting so much that chances are something new will happen next time.
