inigoesdr··on First Victim of Amazon Drones: The Credibility of CBS and 60 Minutes
I'm not sure the target audience for 60 minutes is that similar to the audience that would care about drone delivery or Cyber Monday so much. Suggesting that Amazon may have intentionally wanted the story aired the day before Cyber Monday seems like a bit of a stretch. Also, the fact that Amazon wants to do drone delivery in the future has been discussed previously, and they still say it's a few years out, so this isn't much of a story to begin with.
inigoesdr··on Why Putting SSH On Another Port is a Good Idea
Disabling password-only authentication doesn't prevent you from using a password on your key. When you login with key-based authentication you will be prompted for the password for your key, even if password authentication is disabled, because they are two separate & unrelated processes.
inigoesdr··on Lavabit to Briefly Reinstate Services for Data Recovery
If he had erased them he wouldn't have needed to give up the encryption key and he wouldn't have had as much of a problem giving it up unless he used it elsewhere.
inigoesdr··on Nginx Is Taking Over the Internet
It seems like they left some details out. "It was crashing with specific modules or configuration we were using" would be more accurate. The way it's worded makes Apache sound unstable, which isn't true in my experience & research.
inigoesdr··on Google Chromecast
Yep, or a regular USB power adapter which I think someone mentioned is included.
inigoesdr··on Google Chromecast
It uses a USB cable that is indeed not shown in the marketing images, but it is mentioned in the product description.
inigoesdr··on MySQL man pages license change is a bug
You can download the documentation here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/ Or are you referring to the scripts that generate it?
inigoesdr··on Samsung Copy and Paste Bug
The article mentioned that you have to be running the Samsung stock build, because the issue is with the Samsung clipboard manager.
inigoesdr··on Web Development: A Crazy World
"Slightly better" is a subjective assertion. Especially in the webdev world where the pace of design and functionality improvements tend to move so fast. Granted, you may display the same/similar information in a text-only page, such as your example. But you won't be engaging users much or creating a site that people will want to see & return to, which is where the money that is spent on webdev work generally comes from.
inigoesdr··on Ask forgiveness, not permission
>But the reality is that very few companies actually follow through. Because asking your customers to pay you for a product/service when you also expect them to be your testers is going to lose you a lot of customers long-term in most markets. If something doesn't work consistently, or they are constantly finding new issues they will simply find another company to work with. Not to mention, by letting people push whatever they want to production and waiting for a customer to report issues you are counting on people to actually submit bug reports & not just ignore/abandon the issue.
inigoesdr··on Statement by Apple
They aren't giving it back to all of the end-users that purchased their products. They are performing huge shareholder payouts to people that already own their stock.
inigoesdr··on Google's text-to-speech engine randomly inserts phrase "he now praises the ipad"
It appears to be slightly more complicated than that.
