I don't love YAML, but for configurations I always choose it for the simple fact that it supports comments. Comments for json are almost always hacky (for example, imbedding a comment key inside the value).
The article doesn't specify whether or not the encryption was "broken", or whether Cohen is simply cooperating. My hunch tells me it's the latter.
Exactly. This makes so much sense for the city. This type of calculation doesn’t even include a fuzzy bump in technological growth for a city that’s connected with cheap fiber.
This is the case in many, many major cities. When discussing this type of rollout, it’s almost always talking about last-mile, which is the most expensive to rollout and maintain.
That’s a distinction the average person wouldn’t make.
rm /bin/sh ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh What the heck? Installing this package wipes your sh and replaces it with bash?
> Microsoft didn't even ask their customers for permission. They just automatically switched anyone who installed IE7 to Bing as the default. Don’t worry everyone it’s different now!
Based on the picture, "pulling it up" looks like a fairly intensive task, requiring boats, persons, etc. That kind of thing eats directly into the ROI for a datacenter. I doubt it competes with a static building with a…
Ugh I read your job post months ago and I’m so interested in what you’re doing. I’m not aligned in any of the skills, just really interested about the actual work. What can you share?
For a laptop? Even my heavy usage is ephemeral workloads. I care so much more that the dang thing works reliably without fussing or fiddling, which can not be said about 99% of laptops on the market.
How many web apps can you name that don’t rely on any external gems? Packaging that mess is a pain in every scripting language.
Most languages don’t support static binaries. Other than Go I can’t think of any that make it easy.
If a company is going to build drone AI in use by the military, I feel MUCH better knowing that company is google and not some poor-quality contracting company.
You hold your tongue and value family relationships above petty squabbles. It’s not some pious virtue. It’s just what you learn to do as a functioning adult.
Last time I looked at a “system-wide” adblocker, it was just a vpn service with proxied your traffic (not just DNS) through a who-knows-what server. That seemed really sketchy to me, and I doubt most users knew the…
Don't look at GDPR and see it as some kind of slap in the face to Facebook or Google. The reality is that regulation like this invariably benefit the companies large enough to hire the lawyers to abide by the…

Why give them the option to shoot themselves and neighbors foot? Seems more like a technology problem with BGP then knowledge problem.
How many “kicks” does it take to build a reasonably resilient distributed service? A lot!
Because of SGIP[1], you can basically get a powerwall for free right now in CA depending on the circumstances. However, the requirements for the program all but guarantees it will use up the life of your storage system.…
> You will save time and mental energy for more important matters. Exactly why every language, from here until the end of time, should have a “go fmt” equivalent.
Also they only need to hold 51% for as long as they can complete the double-spend attack.

Reminds me of something predicted in “Weapons or Math Destructive” an opique algorithm deciding our fate that’s difficult (impossible?) to fully audit. It’s a cruel fate we’re leaving ourselves too if we don’t leave a…
I wouldn't be so sure. They said one of the motivations was to "unblocking the path to more wire protocol improvements in the future".
