Well, it seems ridiculous to say that, because there have been 3g microcells (openbsc, for example) forever. It seems bizarre that we couldn't have a switch in every truck that turns it into a mobile microcell for <$100. The backhau

If you've never heard of it, not far from Atlanta, there's this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithia_Springs,_Georgia . Interesting history there, about "restorative" lithia water springs.

In my limited experience, stock options have significant differences from other typical investments in the following ways: 1) You can be prevented from effectively selling stock options prior to a liquidity event 2) Partly due to 1) , stock

We actually had Marat come to the Go meetup in Atlanta when he was finishing up his PHD at GT. He had done some preliminary work on SIMD. It was a small meetup ( I think only ~6-7 in attendance) and went over many folks heads, since a lot o

I think IP ownership does = stewardship of all domains using that IP from a DV certificate perspective. The moral of the story is don't point a domain you value at a sketchy host's IP. The list of the things that need to happen to

Ok, in this scenario, we have a web host with an adversarial entity on its server, that commits a crime. By the same token, if that web host were hacked and used to obtain a nefarious certificate, would the CA be accountable? It seems to me

So would a whitelist of providers/ip's be sufficient? Whitelists can be much easier to maintain.

I came here to say this. What's more, the spec was agreed upon, in relatively public forums, with a voice from the community. Crappy shared hosting providers are going to mostly ignore their customers and perpetuate insecure scenarios

Came here to say this. Load up on $20 2TB SAS drives in an R510 or something like that, and you'll use a little more power, but also be beating the pants off AWS for cost/GB purposes.

Right, in many cases, small is beautiful! I think that's what contributed so heavily to the massive success of the Xen platform. Is that what you mean?

How is this better than using rkt with an lkvm stage1[1], which also uses the work done by the Clear Containers team? It looks like Kata packages QEMU as well, which seems a bit overkill. [1] https://coreos.com/rkt/docs&

You could set the rate for lending new money algorithmically based on a set of other observed statistics of the credit markets. Then it would not be artificial or fiat. The algorithm might be artificial but the rate itself would not. This i
