  1. Re:What's DevOps? on Signs You're Doing Devops Wrong (infoworld.com) · · Score: 1

    I've also seen DevOps manifested as developers doing Operations and getting paid developer salaries. It's little solace that the dumbass organization has chosen a bad economy, that is thinking that they can pare down their Operations team but not realizing their developers are losing weeks to learning the intricacies of creating cloud configuration scripts, when that's not the work you want to be doing as a developer.

  2. Re:Where is my mosquito laser? on Boeing Demonstrates Drone-Killing Laser · · Score: 1
  3. I hope this culture doesn't bleed out on The Challenge of Working At Amazon · · Score: 1

    I hope this culture doesn't bleed out into the work culture at large in the vicinity of Amazon HQ. I've already dealt with enough hyper-aggressive (former) Microsoft culture that has escaped into the wild. Separately, the job boards here are so overwhelmed with Amazon job listings that I've often wished for a special "block Amazon job listings" feature. I now see that this is likely caused as much by turnover as it is by growth with the company.

  4. Re: If there are patent issues on Reasons To Use Mono For Linux Development · · Score: 2

    I have a *certainty* the person has no idea what LINQ is.

  5. Open Source / Open Hardware on Hundreds Apply For FAA Drone Licenses · · Score: 1

    There are some much more open platforms (hardware and software) available: http://3drobotics.com/2013/08/...

  6. What about D/L caps? on FCC Officially Approves Change In the Definition of Broadband · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't monthly (or periodic) download caps be included in the official definition of "broadband?" Otherwise I can see a really good way of gaming this definition.

  7. Re:ummmm the constitution trumps laws on Law Lets IRS Seize Accounts On Suspicion, No Crime Required · · Score: 1

    The best part is that the case against you will be funded with your/our own tax dollars! Yay we need more government!

  8. I will enjoy having a slimmer tablet ... on Intel's 14-nm Broadwell CPU Primed For Slim Tablets · · Score: 1

    ... that is 12 nm slimmer than it might otherwise be without this new technology.

  9. Here are my hiring (and coworker) preferences on Age Discrimination In the Tech Industry · · Score: 1

    1. Older, experienced programmers who have made an effort to learn continuously throughout their careers 2. Brand new college graduates (regardless of age), who tend to be like empty heads but with open minds 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Older programmers with outmoded experience who refuse to adapt to contemporary idioms/paradigms.

  10. Extrapolating from growth rate of NSLs, etc... on FBI Drone Deployment Timeline · · Score: 2

    They've used drones for investigations 10 times this year, 500 times next year, 12,000 times the year after that, and so on ... And why the need to redact so heavily a report on conventional law enforcement operation which took place in the past? The redaction would make more sense if TFA had been referring to a military or Intelligence operation, but this was just a kidnapping case...?
