"Surface-to-air missile systems and complexes of division level are characterized by their long range and firepower and are equipped with surface-to-air missile complexes;S-300V,Osa, Buk, Buk-M1 and Tor."

2. No they did not need to do that, it was enough to park it closer to the zone

3. I am not sure what is this gibberish about, I did not mention anything about SBU or anybody else saying anything.

Thanks for the downvotes, even when you are obviously wrong. It is just showing how much HN lost its way.

They had few seconds to shoot it down. They had to coordinate very well to achieve this.

This still does not prove anything, it could have been the Ukraine military as well, they have (just like any other ex-Soviet country) plenty of BUK missiles.

Amazon for a long time (maybe even today) used IRC for 1:N communication. I personally like IRC over anything else, but I am probably just too old... :)

MongoDB really? You are comparing a software product to a multi-region global data service? This is just not a great comparison. If you build a distributed global data service on MongoDB you could compare that to DynamoDB.

Yes it is without a date range. 99.999% / year means something while 99.999% uptime does not mean anything by itself.

I know people live in this city and having a lower wage...

It does not help that some of their maintenance staff is on 200K/y salary. Last time I have checked their wages it was pretty obvious that some of the staff is overpaid greatly. I also know some anecdotal stories about how employees exploiting the company.

Yet it is terrible. Almost as bad as driving without a license plate so you hit and kill somebody you can flee the scene and nobody would be able to identify you. But that does not happen, right?

I found entire criminal networks operating on PayPal and Ebay, when I reported the case to them they refused to deal with the situation. Basically the criminals were selling software that appeared to be legal but the serial keys were stolen from the vendors. When somebody realized what is going on they sent an email saying if you rate us on Ebay 5 star we give you back the money.

Ebay was more than happy to let these guys operate on their platform, I have supplied them all the evidence but nothing happened.

I think if he was doing this for real (for profit) even than it would be questionable to target linux since its market penetration is pretty low while the effort to make you game running on linux is pretty big. I am saying this after spending some time trying to make a popular game running on linux. The lack of common API that _all_ of the linux distros support equally and easy to use for game developers does not help.

Valve stats on different platforms:

It shows an accumulated 0.89% market share for all the linux distros combined.

Is there more information available on this one? I am not getting the concept of it...

It like help a friend move from a Ferrari to a tractor that was put together 10 different vendors. I friend who is a mechanical engineer with 10 years experience in building cars might like it but my peers who's technological knowledge is limited would like to use a product that was put together by a professional product team. This is why I gave up trying to move my friends to Linux, it is simply not as well integrated as MacOS or Windows. They get several problems that they cannot solve alone and I much rather help them on where to change something in Windows or MacOS than in Linux. Again, I am a senior systems engineer with 18 years of experience using Linux and other unix clones, including using them as desktop.

If you have something to discuss let me know, I would like to hear the other side too.

I am shocked that HN has some of these guys.

I think the deployment is the weakest point of the Docker ecosystem.

The reason why I am using Docker is the forced honesty on the environment side, if your app runs on your laptop it does not mean it will run on the production boxes. If the Docker container runs on your laptop it gives you higher confidence that it will run on the production infra. No missing JARs, environment variables, misconfigured classpaths, etc.

This is exactly the problem here, just run Postgres on the host means that you have a hybrid setup, some of your services dockerized the rest are not. This is not appealing to some people. There are other services mostly in the heavy disk IO space that is not easy to move to Docker. It might be worth to call these out in the documents and save some time to sysadmins figuring this out the hard way. If you want to dockerize your application like a REST api or a simple Java app, that works perfectly and the advantages are obviously there though.

It would have been extremely difficult because MySQL community edition is GPL and Amazon does not allow GPL code to be modified by the internal teams as far as I know. They might have changed their policy though...

Welcome to the new HN.

Funny that you never asked the other guys who did the exact same thing to me publicly to stop.

I like how HN just like Reddit is turning into a propaganda machine where you remind everybody who does not support your agenda to follow the rules while all the guys who support your agenda can happily do against the rules, regardless how big lies they are spreading.

Thanks for proving to me that you are no different, double standards for the win!

I guess I will just stick to commenting outside HN.

Asking somebody to stick to the dictionary definition of words is against HN guidelines??

I am going to take a screenshot and put in on the wall in the office.

Thank you!

Again, come back to this when you definition made it to the dictionary.

I do, I do start random conversation with muslims, christians, blacks, whites, females, males, Chinese, Korean and even with animals. Most of the time it is welcome, but more recently I discovered that some people in USA are considering this micro-aggression, so I am dialing down wanting to talk to here at all. I hope you are happy.

It is not entitlement, it is the human way of communicating. You are not the other side, you are just representing the anti-intellectualism that is not too popular on HN.

But your logic suggests that racism is not the dictionary definition but it has to do who is in minority or who is in majority. That is wrong. The definition "the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races." Until you change it in the dictionary this will be the definition and it has nothing to do with who is in majority and your "social constructs".

You say in Africa where black are majority it is ok to be racist against them?

Your logic is so broken I don't even know where to start.

If you are not interested in the dictionary definition, than please provide your dictionary so we can have a discussion in your language. Until that happens I will use the definitions from the dictionary.

Thank you in advance.

It is kind of sad that these things are getting traction in the society, even on HN, see how they are downvoting us without any comment.

It is funny how people who try to help somebody who they assume lost are displayed racist and sexist. What about their motivation? This is why I do not want to help females anymore, it is not worth the risk here in California.

A new invention of the SJW community.

"The term “microaggression” was used by Columbia professor Derald Sue to refer to “brief and commonplace daily verbal, behavioral, or environmental indignities, whether intentional or unintentional, that communicate hostile, derogatory, or negative racial slights and insults toward people of color.”"

Like when they say white male. Oh, nevermind that does not qualify because it is against whites and males, so it is ok. Sorry a little confusing here... :)
