This is my favorite quote from the article: “I’ve been the principal who’s stood there and said ‘Oy, kid! Get off your bike! You’ve got to walk your bike!’ Then I’d go away and think ‘Why the hell did I say that?’”
I think this article does an OK job of outlining parts of the decision tree for cloud vs. self-hosted (while ignoring other options like traditional hosting providers). The other things to consider are staffing and…
Same thing happened to me except for the bitcoin magically reappearing. Since this is now Coinbase's unofficial support forum - issue 52050 - 4 weeks and counting....
I wholeheartedly agree with this - it's been 3 weeks since bitcoin "disappeared" from my account and still no response from Coinbase despite multiple requests from me.
I use the devil's advocate approach to gathering software requirements. I argue against what I feel are good ideas and argue for what are seemingly not so good ideas. As long as you don't get too far off track the…
When I scanned the headlines, I misread this as Obama Code School, I guess that's where the healthcare.gov developers went...
This is a good point and one that I considered and wish I followed up on. I'm in the "support queue" with Coinbase right now because they absconded with 10% of my bitcoin holdings for no discernible reason. In case…
This is a great point which I just boiled down in my head to: people don't want a product, they want to solve a problem. I think entrepreneurial developers lose sight of that a lot of times even though it is common…
There seems to be a common fallacy that is propagated by media that bitcoin is untraceable. A visit to blockchain.info pretty easily dispels this myth. Bitcoin is anonymous (in the same way that cash is) but it is not…
The labotomy that put him in that state, granted it relieved his seizures but I suspect the end result wasn't what Dr. Scoville was going for.
I guess you could argue after a few hours he wouldn't care any more either because he didn't remember it. I was hoping that ultimately he wasn't just a science experiment to the people that surrounded him and that he…
This part made me sad “My interest in Henry had always been primarily intellectual; how else would I explain why I had stood on a chair in the basement of Mass. General, ecstatic to see his brain removed expertly from…
There could be an element of trustworthiness associated with apologizing for anything since you are inherently taking responsibility for something. But also it could have been that leading in with a request (with no…
This happened to someone I know (really, it wasn't me). Not only did it encrypt the local drives it also hit all of their network drives. As reprehensible as it is to pay the ransom they really had no choice since the…
