Great guy but he just won't shut up about Kubernetes. We have 36 servers in the production environment, each of which does something different using different software. Kubernetes is the wrong tool for every job we have.
Or, perhaps it is a better tool than what you are using today, and you are letting your skills age and become out of date.
Seriously, you have 36 servers and manage each one individually? That's not the most efficient way of doing things.
In every case where an advanced civilization has encountered a much less advanced civilization, it hasn't worked out well for the less advanced civilization. Ask Native Americans if they think that the arrival of Europeans was good for their culture.
So, why should we expect that the arrival of aliens (who one can expect to be much more advanced than us) would be good for us?
So, basically, you admit that my calculations are correct, they just don't apply to you because you won't own a house for long enough (the costs of buying and selling wipe out a lot of short term gains).
As for the idea that you can't get anything other than a shithole for https://www.realtor.com/reales...
In your comparison, for the person who didn't buy a house, where did they live?
In my world, they have to pay rent, which would probably be much greater than the interest over 30 years, because of inflation.
Also, you vastly underestimate house price increases. See this page: https://www.cnbc.com/2017/06/2... It's out of date, but I think that bringing it up to date would show larger house price increases. Using 1970 -> 2000 as a representative date range, that $800k would have appreciated to $5.6M.
I have thought for years that Windows would be more secure if Microsoft provided a mechanism by which ISVs could hook into the Windows Update process and use that for program updates. The system could required code signatures to ensure that fakes are not being installed. Microsoft could make some money out of it by selling code signing certificates.
Obviously, they would have to take care that the ISV hooks could not overwrite any core Microsoft items and perhaps not overwrite any prior ISV hook.
What I meant was, would it make a strong material if they removed the lignin (as described in TFA), but instead of the next step being compression, it was epoxy impregnation?
During summer afternoons, I get paid 44c/kWh for power that I feed into the grid. I buy it back at night at 12c/kWh, so I don't have any reason to go off grid.
Cities that go 100% autonomous will have to solve the jaywalking problem.
If all the vehicles on the road are self-driving, then, from a safety perspective, there is nothing to stop a pedestrian crossing when and where they want, in the knowledge that the autonomous vehicles will stop for them. This will cause chaos with the flow of traffic.
Net result: somehow jaywalking must be eliminated.
Paravirtualization is really only useful when the host CPU doesn't have the hardware necessary for virtualization. Since that is almost no x86 CPUs these days, the value of paravirtualization is low.
In addition, KVM supports Virtio drivers for network and disk drives, reducing the value of the paravirtualization approach even more.
How many newspapers passed on the key details of the Watergate story? There are many cases where the media passed on stories that turned out to be true.
Steele had an impeccable reputation for the quality of the intelligence he provided.
Obviously, the memo isn't going to claim that the Steele document is true: the memo is a partisan attack document.

Or it's an ad for a position that is already filled: by someone in the process of applying for a green card.

A few years ago, in the UK, the police gave a ticket to a woman who took a drink from a water bottle while stationary at a red traffic signal.
All those small sellers: I will never buy directly from them because I have no idea how secure their e-commerce platform is.
I will buy via an intermediary, such as Amazon, because I trust Amazon with my credit card details.
Go read them again yourself, without your Trump-colored glasses on. Or perhaps that would break your contract?

The link was eaten by /, so here is is again: house for sale in nice neighborhood in Bay area at less than $1M.

Right now you can. Care to make the same statement after 10 yrs of inflation on your monthly rental while the mortgage interest hasn't increased?
That statement makes no sense in the context of the discussion.

People give money to already wealthy mega-churches and believe in Prosperity theology.
Stupidity is everywhere, even amongst the wealthy.

Well, yes, I knew that.

I wonder if they could vacuum impregnate it with epoxy as an alternative to compressing it.
Elon Musk sent it into space.
It doesn't help that TFA isn't fine, because it is missing a comma after "storing" The line should read:

This revelation comes just as it appears that the investigation of Equifax is being put on ice and that the head of the CFPB thinks that his job included protecting the banks.
They should have pushed out this news last Friday or Monday when the market news would have buried it.
The real solution would be to make these institutions financially liable for the effects of false information in their files.
Can't get a mortgage because of an error in their files? You should be able to sue Equifax for your loss.
Can't get a job because a hacker used your details to obtain loans fraudulently: sue Equifax.
If we are going to reduce regulations, let's eliminate the laws that protect these companies from being sued.

This was Janet Yellen's final act before retiring.
That's what made it possible: the fact that she was free to take the action because she didn't care about future career prospects.
