The Federal government manages 57% of California forests. Another 33% are under private control. Very little of the parts of CA that are ablaze are managed by the State. Forest management alone at any level cannot…
60% of land in CA is under Federal management. Another 2/3 is private land. There is more bureaucracy around things like air quality regulations, but in general it's not an "aesthetic" issue causing these problems. Many…

And as might be expected on a forum full of intelligent nitpickers, people can parse and dissect the structure of this sentence to fit any narrative they'd like. For example, it says it's solving issues attributed to…
Ah, makes sense!
I think OTP Releases would still depend on the target host being configured correctly and having all dependencies installed that your application needs to run. Containers are all about consistency of the environment.…
Wouldn't the point of running in Docker still be to guarantee version, environment, and config compatibility? Just because you run an Elixir app on your local machine doesn't mean it will work worry-free on Prod.…

Not really the company's fault here. Policies like this exist because candidates have and will sue the shit out of you for any flimsy accusation of discrimination they can cobble together. Companies didn't create these…
The problem is that it could be a slippery slope with no transparency, oversight, or recourse. First, it's creepy that a company I paid money to for a game is actively scraping the internet trying to associate my…
