It's been a few months since I managed to dig into Docker for some test projects at work, but docker0 was the name of the virtual bridge interface so probably the documentation you linked is what we're going on about :-)

I only started playing with Docker last December, and I think this was supported from that point in time, so definitely it could be a recent addition.

Currently I'm envisioning Docker playing a nice role in our CI and development infrastructure at work, where we can choose to start a new docker for any given project, and get a locally accessible IP back in a matter of seconds ... all from our soon-to-be-created CI+deployment web ui ;-)
>It sounds like what Comcast really wants are data caps for their users but those don't do well with consumers. Instead they're targeting the largest content suppliers.

This is exactly the issue. The ISPs got themselves into a corner. They created a market of unlimited plans and can't back out from that, so can't charge more to their own heavy users who are the cause of the need for network upgrades. Since a lot of that heavy use is of paid services, they figure they can go after that money pool instead.
This is a great biography of Larry Page. Though there are some misreport facts and one-sided opinjon, the article captures my pulse. Only a few lengthy articles could ever retain my full attention till the end.

In particular the whole "Larry as a visionary", "Larry is socially awkward", "Larry is not traditional" makes me feel more welcome in this world. I too am that kind of person (it is up for future to judge whether I am visionary :)). But this is the exact article I need to pursue my dream of making things "happening". If you want to carry out your vision, you need to delegate. You need to set the tone "this is what we do, and we do this this way."

Ideas just happen to come to us every minute but we are too caught up in fighting the current. That's the big Google problem: it is too huge too slow too bureaucratic to get things done, even after Larry is back as CEO. This is why I am more leading toward startup environment (I am about to graduate soon), this is why people leave big corporations. I wasn't appreicating why Google was moving in so many directions. But it is true. I long know Google is outside my tech tweets. Not enough hype for me to notice until special events. Nothing exciting. I hope one day they realize simplicity is the key (please fix your UX). Outside of privacy and security worries, I believe Google does have the collective power and sum to make a life-dependent integrated platform. It is up to Google executives to decide whether they will make such platform as open as possible, as friendly as possible, to both end users, sales and engineers.

I truly envy him being a genius and intelligent at making things. I hope one day I too will be recognized. Enough said, there is always an opportunity for everything. Only I can make that happen.
Announcing The Release Of Our Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Server
I wonder what pricing is like for industry-specific systems. Places where a operational leak can easily cost $$$$$ a month and go rather undetected and certainly not prosecuted.

I suppose that's only valuable to criminals. Sorta like saying knowing someone's bank info can let you steal money - no one legit will pay for it.
So within ~20 months it'll be possible to drive almost anywhere in the USA in a Tesla S, and back to a Supercharger charging station? That's pretty impressive! As demand for vehicle based electricity use increases the demand for new electricity generation capacity will increase. All this in a protracted economic depression. Interesting times.

That's not what's expected. What's expected is that you get what you pay for, whether you're a customer on the hosting end or the residential end. If you're paying your data center for 1Gbps, then they ought to have at least 1Gbps capacity to the major residential ISPs. If you're paying your residential ISP for 15Mbps, then they ought to have at least 15Mbps capacity to their peers. If there are 100 people trying to use 15Mbps at once at peak hours, they need at least 1500Mbps of capacity to provide the level of service they sold.

What Comcast is being chastised for, the thing that forced Netflix to transit with them directly, is being paid by its customers to connect to the internet, then refusing to use that money to buy a pipe large enough to deliver that. It wasn't Netflix that wasn't buying a large enough pipe to send its own bits. If Comcast had resolved its disputes with Cogent and widened the pipe to meet the customer demand it's being paid by those customers to meet, I'm sure Netflix would've been happy to stick with its ISP.
This is the best thing about what Google is doing. 90% of the blame for this situation belongs on municipalities. They're the ones that created these franchises in the first place. They're the ones that imposed huild-out requirements and regulated rates. They're the ones that have made it impossible to build new infrastructure even after Congress made exclusive franchises illegal in 1992.
Yeah I stopped reading at that point. An ISP with a history of interfering with certain traffic and lobbying against net neutrality is not a supporter of an open Internet at all, let alone the "strongest."
According to techcrunch[0], Automattic (parent company of Wordpress) also acquired Longreads. It seems like either a more simplified version of Wordpress is on the way or a revamping of the core product. I'm curious if they see Medium and other long form publishers as a potential threat or there is just interest in seeing the potentials of this new style working its way into Wordpress.

Prison Reviews on Google
I am surprised AT&T left the comment section open in their Public Policy Blog that this Comcast response links to: http://www.attpublicpolicy.com/consumers-2/who-should-pay-fo...

They get raked over the coals (and rightly so, IMHO), by people pointing out that they already pay for their bandwidth, so why should they pay twice (once through AT&T and once through the costs Netflix would have to pass through to them).

It really seems like AT&T and Comcast are complaining that people are actually starting to demand the full service that they pay for. It is really hard to take that argument seriously.
It's fascinating how scientology was formed out of Hubbard stealing his wife, scamming him out of money... and then his ex wife and hubbard founded scientology - using a bastardized version of Thelema as a means to control and bilk money out of 'thin' personalities that are looking for help and validation. Quite a use of the occult!

But is it a good use of their cash? Fiber isn't a high return business, especially in a regulated environment with build out requirements.
Can you point to an example of a person working for the Mozilla Corporation who believes they're working for a social justice charity?
In your example the hosting company is also a Comcast customer, so that hosting company needs to upgrade its link. That isn't the case here. Netflix pays for its own network infrastructure to get the content to a neutral exchange point and is willing to upgrade that infrastructure as needed. Comcast should be willing to upgrade the infrastructure from that point to its customers houses as that's what their customers pay them to do.
These new generation of applications with deeper integration on Android have become my favorite feature of Android. Facebook's chat head, LastPass's Fill into the Apps, etc. completely changes how you use your smart devices.

It's both a product and a platform. plus.google.com and its "What's New?"-style newsfeed is a tangible product.

The news that Google+ integration is no longer required for other Google products means the platform is deprioritized.
> should Comcast now give my and my hoster free access

If your hosting company has paid Comcast for 100Mbps transit, then Comcast should honor that agreement with your hosting company. Your uplink to your hosting provider is completely irrelevant as far as Comcast is concerned.

If you're using a different transit provider (e.g., Cogent), then Cogent and Comcast will have a mutual peering agreement that accounts for imbalances in transfer. These details are very complicated, proprietary, and you should never need to care about them. That's the whole point of the internet; you connect to "the internet" and can treat it as a homogeneous network, whereas in reality it is actually a bunch of mutually-peered subnetworks.
And this is how a child tries to describe how his parent does his job.
Honestly, maybe they shouldn't. The people hosting services offer the content Comcast's customers pay them to receive.
Netflix doesn't pay an ISP? How does their traffic get into the internet, then, by magic?
I was really surprised one day to find all my youtube comments on Google+ for all my friends to see. Try explaining away comments about a fart video, drunken bums, cock fighting or some other unfortunate mistake. Oh well (shrugs shoulders)
You, like many others, are pretending like this was all polite discussion and ignoring the death threats various people received just for saying in public that they supported Brendan as CEO. This is _not_ "exactly how public dialogue is supposed to work", though sadly it's exactly how it usually works in the US nowadays. And the part I object to, in case it wasn't clear, is precisely the intimidation tactics used.
Google, Microsoft, Twitch, all directly peer with Comcast.

They are willing to do this because the transit providers can not handle their traffic efficiently. So why is Netflix complaining?
> ...should be illegal.

And Facebook is the only way to reach Facebook's customers. Should that be illegal?
> Imagine if Google could make use of that information, those friends lists, those interactions, those posts and comments and connections.

Um... that's the part I don't want, the part that makes Google even creepier than Facebook. I want to maintain separate online identities for separate activities, not let one big company follow me everywhere, but pretend to give me separate identities that only it can correlate. I prefer my current solution, where one barely-trusted corp gets me email, another my "social", others my chit-chat in various communities.
The goal of Google Apps is to allow a domain administrator to own your account. I am having a difficult time coming up with a use case where you want an employee to be able to grant their account upon it becoming "inactive" to someone else: if the employee dies or leaves for some long period, the domain administrator should simply reclaim the account (and the domain administrator's password should itself not be something you are reliant on a feature like this to grant access to: it should be information known to the company, similar to bank account details).

(Or is the complaint just that the distinction between "Google Apps Account" and "Google Account" isn't sufficiently clear? If so, I agree: they should have drastically different branding to make the difference more understandable. As it stands, I know people who seem to be trying to use Google Apps accounts as their personal account, which leads to situations where changing your e-mail hosting provider effectively means you lose access to your Google services and data. Even worse are employees/students who store personal data to their managed accounts :(.)

Ironically, Google inherited the precursor of Reddit, in the form of Google Groups, the interface to what's left of Usenet.

It's also done much to kill that -- the interface is abysmal (actually, so is G+, but that's another story). Even some early G+ support channels which were mediated through Google Groups got killed off. I'd posted some detailed feedback early on (2011) which, so far as I can tell, has been nuked from the face of teh Intarwebs.

Reddit isn't the end-all be-all, but it's damned good. And it carries far more regard and respect than its size would suggest. News items I'm reading about G+ discuss a total staff of over 1200 devoted to it (now largely being reassigned). Reddit's still in the <50 headcount as far as I know.

And yeah: I'd love to see global search (including comments), better tags, better moderation tools, a more powerful wiki, longer self-posts (10k char limit is a bear), and a bunch of other stuff, but it's really quite a useful site as things stand.

Much as HN, despite a pretty limited UI is, largely based on community and dynamics.
Climbers Leave Everest Amid Regrets and Tensions Among Sherpas
This whole comment thread is completely missing the context. Tokaido was marketed so well that it raised $51,000 on Kickstarter and has been discussed on HN many times, which is why it's not unreasonable to assume people around here know what it means.
Unfortunately you don't buy an always open 15 Mbps pipe, you buy "15 Mbps peak speeds", or at least that's how it is worded for me. Which means at peak usage times you expect to get lower than 15 Mbps.
The first time I navigated to that page (by accident, I was exploring my Google account settings) I sat there looking at the screen puzzled. It took me almost 5 minutes to realize that this nebulous description actually meant the passing of the account owner.

Hmm.

I'm considering a start-up that would make special EMF field interacting hammers that could be used to reset large scale neuro-networks. Could thing, is that I think these hammers could actually be used on both, biological and silicon computational devices! And considering that it probably would be hard to get an FDA approval [needs about a .1 billion dollars lobbying moneys], at first we can sell as a panacea-fix-it-all solution for Mac Pro, TV Sets and Bimmer owners.

Anyone wants to join?

[in 5 years in a "Science of EMF Hammers article": “Can anyone tell me why this procedure does what it does?” ...

“Well,” says Yllek Etoof, “we know a lot, but not everything.”

"More than 100,000 people around the world have undergone EMF Hammers since it was first approved, in the 2016s, for the treatment of movement disorders.

But Nuko says more than 90 percent of their patients rate themselves as “much improved” or “very much improved” on standard postoperative outcome scales.

In the 12 years since they joined forces, Nuko and Etoof have seen EMF Hammers evolve, in Nuko’s words, “from crazy, to kind of cool but not completely accepted, to accepted.” Nuko, 42, recalls: “When I first got hired here, my chief said to me, ‘You’re a nice kid, you’re a polite kid, but don’t embarrass us.’”]

None at all, by many.

A number, though, arguably violated California Penal Code Section 422 (I say "arguably" because whether they did depends on how seriously the threat recipient took them). Of course they may not be in California, but many other jurisdictions have similar laws.
It is actually rather simple:

* Netflix cannot make money if individual Internet users cannot connect to Netflix and stream their movies. Netflix brings in a lot of revenue from its customers, and even after the cost of its own Internet connection manages to turn a handsome profit.

* ISPs stand between Netflix and their users. Many ISPs, such as Comcast, are also involved in the business of selling subscriptions to TV channels (usually with plans that require people to pay for hundreds of channels they do not watch) -- a business that is dying because of Internet streaming. Since Netflix relies on ISPs to have customers at all, ISPs want to demand money from Netflix (as well as from their customers).

* Somewhere in there are the actual users of Netflix, who have no particular say in any of this. Most of those users would have been happier with BitTorrent, but are too terrified of lawsuits (and even if they did turn to torrents, certain ISPs -- i.e. Comcast -- have been known to deliberately interfere with their customers' traffic to thwart torrents).

If your reading of this is, "ISPs are greedy and want to double-dip," well, yeah, that's what is happening here.
Why Haskell Matters?
It's even better/worse than that. If Comcast customers are requesting 1Gbps of traffic from your server, Comcast may need to buy transit to ensure those packets aren't dropped.
Nice concept, but I think that the huge bitcoin button and the shareaholic widget are very distracting. Also it took me a while to notice the power switch.
I use hangouts on my note 2 and it works great. I don't run a lot of gadgets on my phone though.

I think hangouts killer feature is in the browser.
I think no one argues that decoupling isn't the way, in fact that's exactly what others are saying too, but in the proper way. Make an authentication (micro)service and call it from your webapp. Proxy should proxy, auth service should manage (and cache, keep up to date) credentials, role associations and group memberships, web app should serve web pages (based on the business logic coded into it).
Ha! Good one.
If you're willing to hand off traffic to Comcast at any and all points of their choosing (aka cold-potato routing), then I'd say you should get free peering because you're doing Comcast such a favor.
Stuff pretty rarely gets escalated to that point, sure. I mean, the position exists for cases when normal means of resolving code ownership disagreements totally fail.

Maybe that's just obvious if you're familiar with the governance structure of the Mozilla Project but not clear to people who haven't been involved in it...
Netflix doesn't have a "primary ISP", they are a network. They would like to freely peer to networks and ISPs that they can physically reach (e.g.: US ISPs), and they are happy to pay carriers for transit, that is bringing their traffic elsewhere in the world where they don't have a physical presence.

Most large ISPs won't freely peer with Netflix though; that's actually an industry standard, because peering is usually regulated by some kind of traffic balance between packets entering and exiting the network; e.g.: network A will peer with network B is they both exchange similar amounts of traffic in both directions. In Netflix case, it's obvious that this is impossible.

In those cases, Netflix would rely on paying the transit service; that is, they pay Cogent to bring their traffic into Comcast, because Comcast and Cogent already have some (secret) agreement in place (either feee or paid peer, who knows); Netflix would be happy to just pay Cogent to reach Comcast users. They would call it "a compromise" because their best option would be to freely peer with Comcast, but again, it's been an industry standard forever that peering is not only a factor of physical connection, but also of commercial power and quantity of packets sent and received (who needs to send more is the one that has to pay).

Netflix is now saying that Comcast is deliberately letting their peering with Cogent saturate and refusing to upgrade it (or offering economic conditions that Cogent won't accept, which is the same). This way, Netflix must enter a direct (paid) peering agreement with Comcast, to be able to offer good quality to Comcast users; in that agreement, Comcast will let Netflix pay whatever they see fit to reach their users. The peering here would obviously be paid and not free, since (again) there is a strong disproportion between packets going in/out the network.
How many more errors are you planning on submitting to NIST?

I completely respect that. Is it necessary, though, to submit a comment complaining about it every time it comes up? And I'm allowing that some feel that it is necessary, but to what end?

For me, the page works just fine without registering on Android Chrome and desktop Chrome on my home box. <shrug>
It's hard for customers to buy that when the YouTube and Netflix videos they're watching only need a few hundred Kbps, but they can't get one good stream going on an otherwise unutilized connection. It's not a capacity crunch near the edges of Comcast's network, where lines are still shared in neighborhoods and upgrades cost the most; it's just greed, fattening already healthy profit margins by refusing to increase peering capacity and demanding peers pay more for bits customers are already paying for.
tldr: peering issue, right?

google has similar issues with some EU providers in particular in france, for youtube.

traditionally the ISP pays to upgrade the pipes for the content that is provided by a third party (ie ISP pays for youtube, netflix traffic). ie the one whos downloading pays for upgrading pipes.

thats where some ISPs (comcast too then i guess?) generally cringe: this way of dividing costs was ok 10 years ago, but not anymore: streaming is 90% of their traffic and its not sustainable.
I notice the 100th station is in New Jersey, one of the two states that bans self-serve gas stations. I'm hoping Tesla owners don't have to ask an on-duty attendant to plug-in their vehicles there.

Yes, I've looked at it. You need to understand that dmd is still a fledgling project. Note the version number before you trash a software project. It lacks the features of the popular init systems, but it works well enough to run some basic services on the demo Guix VM images.

I love the fact that the configuration is written in Guile. Data is code and code is data after all. I think you're exaggerating the maintenance nightmare. In fact, the Guix project has already proven that newcomers who don't really know s-expression style syntax can write software packages.
