I generally agree with your response. My only slight irritation is with how you wrote out the Python code. It looks a bit...uglier? and more verbose than it needs to be, especially compared to the others. This looks better to me: from c

I find your tone incredibly condescending. What average person has the time, energy, and expertise for all of this? What you propose doesn't sound practical to me at all. Take this statement: > they spend 20+ years meeting with politic

I'm not involved with anything remotely illegal but I still watched this all the way through because of the police situation in the US: "An law school professor and former criminal defense attorney tells you why you should never agree to be

We used the Ubiquiti wireless access points at my last job. Aside from being awesome for the price, the management software was a cinch to install on Ubuntu and seemed quite cool (what little I saw of it). They really seem to know what they

I'm surprised nobody else on his blog or on HN has mentioned this. I didn't find this post heartwarming as much as I found it gut-wrenching, but only because I've been there myself to a lesser degree (which was still terribly exhausting and

This list is definitely more interesting to me. I discovered a few of these already this year and have been using them a lot (mtr, pv, curl for inspecting headers) and several others that I know I'm going to start messing with immediately (

Their marketing materials say this is much easier but it doesn't seem easier to me. Right now, we have a three node Enterprise Plus, six CPU cluster. This is six licenses period. Now, I have to track vRAM usage and decide to purchase EP lic

Yep - we just bought 54 x 8GB DDR3-1333 Registered DIMMs for about 10K, and we can sell the 54 x 4GB modules we are replacing for about 2-3K on eBay. But since this is a VMware cluster, now I have to scramble to see what this is going to co

I've read books on this because I have had to deal with more than one of these people. One of the leading experts on Narcissism says that most therapists won't even deal with these people they are so difficult to treat.
