If you can guarantee just three cities. Either way, not sure why I was downvoted for having an opinion on the matter. Also I'm wondering why HN moderators allow such downvoting which discourages well intended discussion and participation.

The smaller pieces might still be big enough to survive atmospheric entry. Now instead of one problem, you have many.

Deflection sounds like a great idea, hit it right and send it off to a safer orbit.

Are you hanging out or working?

Have you considered a line of work more suited to an extrovert personality?

I like languages that let me write a sub-routine when that makes sense and a function when that makes sense.

There is an aspect to be considered about making money on this topic.

I changed "linode" to "aws" in your link, very interesting results came up in Google.

Nah honey, I'm good and Linode is the best.

I ask myself and myself says Linode is the best of all I've tried, which is many. So thanks for your wonderful insights but mine are better for me.

As hard as this may be to believe, tptacek's opinions are not the gospel of technology. I've been with Linode for several years and their staff has been top notch.

Because opensource cookbooks are unreliable or people should only rely on your cookbooks? Or old skool isn't new skool so it should be wholly disregarded?

You might want to brush up on business speak, that's the real reason for writing the vast majority of all software ever written or that will be written in this century.

So you mean the IT departments that represent the majority of all businesses in the entire world? Yes, they work their butts off.

Agreed, there are no 10x engineers, we all have 10x moments in time once in a while. We all have moments when we feel we can't tie our own shoelaces without help.

There's no need to turn this into an anti-(fill in the blank) thread.

For me my dream job can be writing CRUD web software as long as people need it and appreciate my work.

Never used them, are they important? What do they do? I've used all the ones cited as bad examples.

So was that a dig against jQuery?

Ever try adding a string and an integer in JavaScript?

I think developers who think JavaScript is great, love it because it's forgiving. Do what you want, the JavaScript siren says, it might work, it might not but at least you won't have an ugly all stop. I'll try to make it do something, anything, sings the siren.

Like the parent, this seems odd that just now in 2016 we find there might be another planet in our own solar system when planets are being discovered in other solar systems and galaxies all the time.

There's this from the article:

"For the first time in over 150 years, there is solid evidence that the solar system's planetary census is incomplete."

It's our _own_ solar system and we just now found this massive thing?

I prefer to overlap and manage my windows as I need to. I'd like to see a desktop from Google based on Android but with overlapping windows, not the confining a phone is required to use.

Compare to Google Drive at 100 Gigs for2 bucks and no bandwidth charges that I'm aware of.

I see, without CommonCrawl paying for S3 (or AWS maybe eats that cost to help the public); this would be an expensive project.

How much did storing the data on S3 cost where you said, "However, the data is on S3" or was it there for such a transient time that it didn't cost much? Bandwidth costs in/out of S3 too?

Edit: Actually I read the S3 parts again, it sounds like the CommonCrawl project pays the S3 costs, I think, since it looks like you're using their domain data?

I used Internet Explorer on SunOS for testing Applets on Windows and Unix.

I was just thinking about Die Hard the other day. He was brilliant in all his roles.

Love this part, "In fact, when I first picked up a dictionary in order to study the words "art" and "science," I happened to glance at the editor's preface, which began by saying, "The making of a dictionary is both a science and an art.""

If it's a new concept then the entropy is huge for anyone regardless of background.

I'd agree, there was a great book called Deep C Secrets by Peter van der Linden. The book itself is not without errors but still provided some useful insights to things I didn't realize I was doing wrong back when I coded in C.

Agree, it's a democratic republic which is unique. It blends and contrasts the best and worst of the two, historically acceptable methods of governing and keeps the two locked in a permanent struggle; with the inevitable hope that it strengthens the country over the longest tests of time.
