I think that they key difference is urban vs rural environments. Walls are effective in urban environments to focus the movement of people into checkpoints - in Sadr City or El Paso. A difference is that along the non-urban sections of the

Thanks for your take on this one. I was in Baghdad around the same time, Army, but a half step removed from combat arms. A decade removed from that now, I agree with you. In the moment, I think that dehumanization is a necessary side effect

I had a 2008 Toyota Yaris with the same center speedometer. It didn't take that long to get used to it, and I liked having an additional compartment in front of the steering wheel (for papers mostly).

@pbhjpbhj - I believe the meaning of the sentence is that Troy Hunt is expecting/planning for a few orders of magnitude of growth. "Soak a few zeros" for example going from 1,000 calls per second to 1,000,000 calls per secon

Looking at the info for pedialyte, 12 oz contains 370mg of sodium, and 9g of sugar. So for 32oz, that 986mg sodium, and 24g sugar, which seems spot on to the articles recommended ratios. https://pedialyte.com/products/c

That was a good read, I had heard previously about the Canadian farmer who was sued for having the roundup-ready gene is his canola. Taking a look at the court record, it shows that it was a bit more intentional: https://decisio

My assumption is that Kanban has ongoing demos to the product owner as work is completed. In that case, the consolidated demos in Scrum may work better when you need to gather extended stakeholders (legal, compliance, design, etc).

It could be people receiving netflix capable devices (smart TV, appleTV, etc) and deciding that the cost is now worth it.

That's an interesting point. I wonder if tax-incentivizing mixed use development by allowing a short depreciation period could create the same desired result as mandating it.

I think the parent's point is that if there is a warrant to collect information, the machines can be seized and the company compelled to comply. This move prevents overreach in the moment.

Thanks for the advice. I love to take in new information, but try to make sure I'm thinking critically about what I'm learning. I'm moving from a large organization to a smaller one, by an order of magnitude or more, so I&#x

I think you may have meant semi-annual (every 6 months). In my opinion, every 3 to 6 months is a good checkpoint for a more formal evaluation, but that ongoing communication should take place through regular meetings every 1-2 weeks.

I found the Obama video at the end very interesting. It would be a neat next step to map non-Obama audio to the generated video. For example, pull audio from an Obama impersonator.

Until about 6 months ago, I used a physical password manager: a small notebook that I kept with me. It posed a greater risk to a physical attack (theft or snooping), but I accepted that risk over using shared passwords across services. I&#
