But in the short time it took for the US Gov to OK Amazon's plans, Amazon had changed those plans such that the ones submitted were no longer valid. Is that what really happened?
.
Also, I saw no mention by Amazon about their concern for the safety of the people who will be living under the threat of the Amazon drones falling out of the air. Maybe that is why Amazon is moving so quickly, their concern for safety is not as the level it should be.
Treat the person with respect from the time you hire him.
.
For example. Be transparent with any equipment lists that document what equipment are in the employee's possession. Share the list at least yearly with the employee so there are no surprises (and the resulting badness) if an employee leaves. There is little else that generates ill feelings than an out of date equipment list for an employee (what do you mean I have to turn in that laptop? I turned it in two years ago. What!?!?! You want me to pay for it?... etc., etc.).
Provide a great work environment so employees don't want to leave.
Look at what you think concerns you when an employee leaves, and then think about what you should do while the person is an active employee to prevent your concerns from occurring.
Don't solve the problem after it occurs, prevent it from occurring.
...During the war the U.S. Bullion Depository continued to operate at Fort Knox, receiving more and more shipments of the country's gold reserves. The Gold Vault was also used to store and to safeguard the English crown jewels and the Magna Carta, along with the gold reserves of several of the countries of occupied Europe....
...Secret Service wants to spend $8 million to build a detailed replica of the White House in Beltsville, Maryland to aid in training officers and agents to protect the real thing....
Which of the recent Secret Service failings to protect the White House were caused by a lack of a replica to train on? Would the agents have missed the concrete barrier on the way back from a party if they had trained on a replica of the White House? Would the White House usher have turned off the alert box if there were a replica of the White House to train on? etc., etc.

It is looking as if the Secret Service is piling on requests in this time of scrutiny.
Instead of blindly approving every proposal put forth by profit-hungry companies, I'd much prefer the FAA takes its time to assure the safety of the drones.
In both cases of the experiment, the disk is used, therefore the experiment cannot test whether doing something in memory is faster than doing something on disk.
So some CTO decides to take a visual arts litmus test which admittedly does not work, modify it in arbitrary ways, and then apply it to the software engineering field to determine whether or not a project will fail.

The concept of making money by selling an operating system is a 1990's idea. It made Microsoft a lot of money at one time...
The question in my mind is whether there is enough money in the "other services" to support the huge, bloated corporation we know as Microsoft?

If I were a Microsoft employee, I'd begin looking to restart my career somewhere else.....
All that will happen is ...
If that is what happens, then other measures would need to be taken to assure new CA's are trustworthy.

If the same problem continues to recur and nothing is done to prevent it, then the whole web of trust will fail.
I commented on this in an earlier thread.
Why do we *need* to travel at all?...
Never optimize what should not have been done in the first place.

Perhaps not disclosed by the British. However, Ft. Knox had owned up to it in the past.
...The Tower of London has no moat but would remain fast against any plausible attack. We use it to store the Crown Jewels....
Weren't the Crown Jewels moved to Fort Know, KY, USA temporarily during World War II?

Only the exterior is 18th century. The interior has been fully gutted and rebuilt.

That it works.
But this sure is a good way to advertise the thyc thing!
I can't wait until the stream of the ~Apple Watch saved my life~ headlines begin.
I think we have not even begun to see 0.001% of the hype surrounding this thing.
No, it is not.

What if you are like me, i.e., ambidextrous. I switch my mousing hands once a month or so.

You mean the Congress that has been purchased by corporate and other special interests?

I wonder how carcinogenic this stuff is...

It's a flawed experiment.
Or at least their certs removed from valid CA Root lists that, for example, Mozilla uses. If not, why not? A trust has been breached.
