Quite simply, if you have the ability to look at code you wrote recently and ask yourself, "what the hell was I thinking?"

Let's use this opportunity to clean out the stink. Including the fact that https://www.linkedin.com/in/jsmarr/ made Friendster (somewhat) popular by taking users registrations to hack into other user accounts.

Register your email and password here: Now we will use your registration details on the major sites to scrape all the data we can. Huge violation that Joseph Smarr has never answered for.

Can someone explain to me this dichotomy I see with the almost thermo-nuclear war when it comes to copyright protection of total drivel, but when it comes to fin-tech there is literally a flourishing industry of screen scraping typing companies and well-publicized plays like Mint and it's just like a big shrug? How are these companies able to mitigate through the banking companies TOU and such?

This is the approach I take. The subject should always be queried, so just use a field on that subject for the purpose of killing current sessions.

Is there another system you know in which no one has experienced "extreme hardship?" Are you saying the driver in this article is an example of that?

That's fair enough and I see that point. My intent is not to defend Kalanick, but I do instinctually defend free markets. I think Uber and its drivers found itself in a situation with falling demand amidst rising competition.

So, it matters that it was lowered but actual amounts are inconsequential? I reject that.

Because I find it incredibly hard to believe that he would engage like this if he believed there was a possibility of the conversation being made public. Sure, I could be wrong, but I am of the camp that the driver will find legal repercussions to this.

Right, the driver didn't even know what the current Uber Black fair was...falsely claiming it was $2.75. Anyone would get annoyed when someone was telling you that you were essentially doing your job wrong but didn't even know the basic facts. In this case, these facts have a direct impact on the driver, which makes it all the more inane that he doesn't know them.

Obviously, he did not know he was being filmed...so it was a secret.

It seems like the driver should know these basic facts before he engages on the matter.

The problem with this is that it ignores the economic realities that went into the decision of Uber to lower fairs and assumes that their demand would have remained the same with or without doing it. Drivers would have not been happy with higher fairs if they couldn't, well...get a fair because of lowered demand.

I don't consider it a fair discussion when the driver falsely insists the fair is $2.75/mile, when it is $3.75/mile and continues to pound the theme when Kalanick had already given his explanation. What is the driver expecting? For Uber to go back and raise fairs on Uber Black?

So, let me get this straight. Uber has lowered the fair once on Uber Black to $3.75/mile, yet it seems that this driver was falsely insisting it was $2.75/mile. That would be frustrating to me too.

Ok, I see that now, it was not always the case...it has been awhile since I looked through their documentation. TY!

We're successfully running Dokku instances for various dev/qa environments, but I have not attempted containers in production as of yet.

While Kubernetes seems to be the orchestration choice du jour, I had been eyeing http://deis.io/ (which I believe to be at least as mature). Can anyone comment on their experience or thoughts on Deis vs Kubernetes? TIA.

Which is why you rarely see successful lawsuits by companies toward former employees on this matter.

Law is solidified by precedence and the rulings have been more and more against employers, rightly so. It's OK to trust in the system on this matter, as no one is ruling for employers on the matter.

I don't really understand the brouhaha either, unless my assumption is wrong that an opt-out option will be given for context based remapping on an app-by-app basis if not system wide? Surely, there will be "hacks" to allow things like REALLY BIG F KEYS ALWAYS ON skin, etc.

I can second this to some degree from a fairly nice new construction neighborhood (1.2-1.6M $ homes, all homes cat-5e wired) in San Diego (I know that's considered lower middle class in the Bay Area) that has Cox Gigablast service available (1 Gbps up/down).

Personally, I was super excited to have the service, was literally like the first to sign up, immediately made use of it with five webcams pushing 1080p to the cloud, running dokku for my company projects staging/qa environments, multiple 4k TVs, etc.

However, I was shocked that so many of my neighbors reactions were like "meh." And the neighborhood consists of mostly tech, doctors, small biz owners or some combo thereof...and everyone knows everything going on (whole neighborhood on FB groups together), so it certainly wasn't a market education thing.

Most were simply like, "I don't need that much bandwidth," and were perfectly content with getting a lower tier package at 10-30% of the bandwidth for half the cost.

I think it's going to take a bit more time before 4k and IoT drive the demand...that much bandwidth still does not have the "killer app" for the typical consumer apparently.

And therefore, he's a good guy now? lol.

How is this kind of authoritarianism any different than those that feel (based on science) that support for abortion (beyond reasonable medical issues for the mother) is tantamount to declaring said individuals are supporting murder and therefore should not be employed, should not be worked with, should be shamed and cast aside?

1. Blade Runner 2. Star Wars 3. 2001 4. Close Encounters of the Third Kind 4. E.T. 5. Star Trek 6. The Last Starfighter 7. Alien 8. Superman 9. The Empire Strikes Back 10. Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi

I am officially too old apparently when this is the top comment and it lacks Blade Runner at the top of the list (let alone even on it). Wow.

Great choices though...for like the last 10 years maybe, I'll give you Matrix and X Files beyond that and that is it.

Would anyone like a real list from a 40 year old?

So, why not democratize this a bit more given the application and the current audience. Why not charge (and deliver) 1000 user reviews of music for $1 as well?

Obviously, established music sites are a distribution channel that works right now. But it seems apparent to me the natural extension right now is direct to music lovers?

tldr; Golden Rule

Such a basic premise, that is absolutely impossible to master.

Yes her mandated Quarterly Performance Review system in which managers were forced to put a % of employees in under performing buckets single handedly damaged the moral more than anything in the companies history.

Does anyone else use and/or have thoughts on some of the boilerplate nginx configuration projects?

"tribalism part that unnerves me... it rubs me the wrong way the same way most political rallies do"

Jr, ear muffs! "U! C! L! A! Fight! Fight! Fight!"

Yeah...I'm not quite getting how this invokes visions of Nuremberg, may I politely suggest a bit of therapy perhaps?

The "all or nothing" with CS has always been a non starter for me. I find it really hard to believe that it is possible for a team of more than 2 or 3 to remain happy with a choice to use it after any extended period of time. If you're out there though, I would love to hear from you!

And yes, this can be said for almost any tool choice, but my spidey sense tells me the half life for CS is about that of something like Jira.
