This isn’t the moderators going rogue or being power hungry. The members of the community asked the moderators to extend the blackout. 48 hours is nothing. Easy for Reddit to ride it out.

He said it’s a static page too… don’t even need a VM. He can just dump it into Amazon S3 and put cloudfront on top of it. Unlimited scaling across the globe, 1TB free of data transfer, free SSL.

I would not be surprised. On nov 22 they released a blog on how to run a mastodon instance on rpi

I read somewhere that “the more you say ‘no’, the more you can say ‘yes’ to the things that are important to you.” I really like that and try to stick to it.

In my opinion Elon miscalculated the type of people at Twitter. These aren’t people like the ones in Tesla or SpaceX where there is some sort of idealization of Elon. The number of fan boys he has at Twitter must be super low. None of the Twitter employees signed up to work for him, it’s pretty obvious from the public tweets that most of the staff has posted that they don’t have much respect for him. On top of that, as others have mentioned, Twitter as a product doesn’t comprare to SpaceX and Tesla and just saying “we’re gonna build Twitter 2.0 the bestest thing ever!” Isn’t particularly motivating enough to give up your work-life balance. Elon came in to a place that already has a culture established… and the people that are there that know how much they’re worth don’t really feel the need to put up with his bullying “my way or the high way”. Props to the people at Twitter for sticking to their beliefs. I think Elon also miscalculated the importance of work from home. I assume a lot of the engineers have the “millennial” mentality of “I work not live, I don’t live to work”.

How’s that different from trusting Twitter? You can export your data everyday and back it up if you want. Move to another server and restore.

I wrote something similar that I use across 2 laptops, so it stores it in AWS. The gist of it is firehose to S3 then use Athena to query. My zsh shell sources a script that has functions that uses the AWS cli to post data or query.

Can you elaborate on virtual number? Don’t I have to pay for a virtual number that is essentially linked to my credit card... with my name on it. GV also knows who I am.

It’s taking back the world.

They’re pretty cool. If you find a nursery that has enough offspring you’re allowed to buy them. You have to fill out the paperwork, but at least that way they’ll remain to exist even if it’s in captivity.

Biometrics shouldn’t be trusted this way. Biometrics are closer to a username, not a password.

I’m surprised they hadn’t stopped already. Do airlines even want them right now?

Yeah, in MySQL you can also do this with a named lock. Really like this workflow.

From your second example... that sounds like it’s going to affect construction workers too... a lot of contractors just hire construction workers day to day to expand their workforce. Would that become illegal or is it different in construction?

This is how I lock my computer at work. Just slide all the way to the left bottom corner. Done. Really like that feature

Mexico is the same way, they won’t extradite if the country is seeking for the death penalty. I wonder if there was a negotiation around that with El Chapo

33 million break for 700 jobs for 2019? Does that go away after 2019 and also the jobs number increases?

I’ve been using Firefox since I heard about their containers. I’m happy they are pushing for all these privacy tools. For me these are the features that will make me chose over chrome.

that's not how /etc/hosts works. the domain listed in /etc/hosts (example.com) will point to 0.0.0.0 (or 127.0.0.1)... you'll never even make it to the server so you won't get the redirect.

Also, last time I checked IAM roles sucked on ECS. Not every container in the cluster should have the same role. I wonder if fargate fixes this.

Unless building a base image... doesn’t this just take away from the benefits of using docker? If I understand one of the primary goals of containers it to: create an isolated environment with quotas and restrictions to the underlying OS by using Linux namespaces and cgroups. However one of the great things about docker is that I can do FROM ubuntu and then anywhere I run my container I now have my app running in an OS that I’m comfortable with. So I can always run bash inside the container and apt-get whatever I need and debug it/experiment etc...

I understand the problem with docker image sizes. I worked at a company where we had a ~1GB image and our CI tool didn’t support caching of docker images so it would take a good 15 minutes to do a build every time. But when we were faced with the option of using another smaller OS, like alpine, we decided not do it because we would give up a lot of flexibility that the OS was providing us.

If you’re running a statically linked binary produced by go and that’s all you want on your pretty much empty image, why not just scp the file and run it manually under a cgroup? Or good ol choot/jails/zones?

Maybe some sort of self signed cert that only that machine will be able to run your executable?

When dep removed the vendor folders from the other libraries, How does dep handle multiple libraries that depend on the same library but different versions of it?

vendor still doesn't work if your project is outside of GOPATH. The only thing the vendor folder is doing right now is precedence. Dep, the pre-alpha tool that is lining up to be the official dependency manager still doesn't work outside the GOPATH, hopefully they change that. The only thing that Go 1.8 did was add a default to GOPATH to $HOME/go.

In my ideal world, I should be able to clone a go project anywhere on my system, fetch the dependencies from the internet, yes the internet, because its 2017. (if you're that concerned with security fine, include them in your repo) but I should be able to call go build in that directory wherever it is.

Well they're listening... at least in the next couple of versions there should be an official dependency manager coming out. IMHO it's meh. They need to get rid of the damn gopath.

wow an official dependency manager. Didn't see that coming. Makes me happy.

Another thing to add to your $10k education list, look at all the art classes in community colleges around the big expensive private art schools.

I got my BFA from a pricy private art school in LA. We were paying about $1250 a credit. The same teachers were also teaching at Santa Monica college for about $21 a credit. I was furious when I found out. I wish I would have known about that. So I suggest going to that prestigious school you want to go. Look up the classes and teachers, they might be teaching somewhere else for cheaper.

At my last job I had the chance to use OpenCV quite a bit. Every time I would discover new things in OpenCV my brain just fired off with ideas. I remember trying to write a blur function and then finding about integral images, that was awesome.

will go get download to the vendor folder first?

right? Forking changes the URL of a project, so are they updating the code?

I wish the go get tool would download to the vendor folder when using GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT
