Tangentially related: Back in the day, the AMD Cool'n'Quiet feature had a funny effect in CS:Source where your player would move much faster than normal. This resulted in bans because of the obvious advantage, which was mistaken for a speed hack.

That is part of the false narrative you and many were fed and believed. Investigations, reporting from many parties, and the vicitm's own family weigh against this drivel.

I think you are purposely narrowly referring to 1 action of many in a crisis that has had >10,000 deaths.

Consul seems to be more prone to issues than one would hope though. Imo the feature set is not worth the increased complexity and operational burden. There are simpler ways of handling service discovery and configuration without running your own consensus based cluster.

Is there any way to pull data from the fitbit device itself offline?

I don't know why I never looked for something like this before, but thanks for the link!

Would you really move your emergency funds into a less secure more likely problematic service though?

I remember during school showing my Math teacher (who was a big Ultima gamer but also played Neopets) how I set up a fake neopets shop that prompted you for login. <form action="mailto:xxxxxx"> When you submitted the login form it sent the form inputs in an email to a hotmail address :D. One of my first experiences with HTML. I had no idea there were so many shared Neopets experiences in this community.

We saw instances which normally kept a healthy stock of CPU credits quickly burn through them and severely degrade in performance thanks to Meltdown :<

Exactly the same outcome as Runescape "merchanting" aka pump and dumping where the majority of the participants were looking to make a quick flip and end up screwed over by the organizers who bought in much earlier start selling early as well. I think much of what is happening in the crypto currency scene has played out in virtual economies a decade earlier and irl for hundreds of years prior.

You may be interested to know the creator of the crypto currency exchange Kraken was CEO of Lewt Inc. Many of the people involved in virtual item shop businesses over the past few decades are prominent holders and founders of crypto currency businesses and schemes.

Dilemma: spend $30 on credit freezes or put $30 into bitcoins?

Google announced yesterday a partnership with Rackspace where they will be supporting GCP. https://techcrunch.com/2017/03/08/rackspace-now-offers-manag...

for easy firewalling and i'm sure a fun internet experience https://www.cloudflare.com/ips-v4

Yes there are marketplaces for this with some providers like AWS. You are buying capacity (like a voucher) for a server not a particular server.

Congratulations on the big growth.

I'm annoyed that I can't set DDG has the default search engine in Chrome (Android). I hold a bookmark though so 'duc' autocompletes to duckduckgo. Not too inconvenient.

Aren't all messages undelivered, until they are?

I solemnly pledge to do nothing 8)

Switch to Datadog and don't look back. Most valuable SAAS for my teams.

DNS or html bowser prefetching... oh my

Can't you just contact the driver... via your phone?

To give some idea of how small a 1M company is, a non-chain Mexican restaurant in the suburbs of Virginia was making 3M / year.

Do you not think China is helping NK develop their ballistic missiles and nuclear technology?

All governments are oppressive to different extents.

This sounds like a nightmare. One that I can't imagine happening at Rackspace Cloud...

I feel like there's a standard blog post that can be posted in response to opinion pieces like this, and it would be titled "x is not a panacea".
