VC doesn’t need to be the asset class benefiting, does it? Doesn’t most of the cream and benefit of innovation in the startup space end up getting purchased by first the big tech firms (Cisco, Oracle, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft, Google), se

A bunch of over-funded, under-profitable startups trying to discover a business plan is, in itself, a moat. I just wonder: for who?

Myself, I enjoyed the entire book, but I understand the let down feeling some here are expressing. The first part is immediate, gripping, intense, and hard to go through it (but you don't want to stop, because it is so good). After all

Any thoughts towards integrating Docker's VPNKit with Vagrant to provide transparent networking services to the development VMs?

The built-in VPN clients support old broken insecure protocols (PPTP) and expensive, hard to implement and hard to deploy protocols (IPSEC-LLTP), whereas public vpn providers tend to use simple, secure, easy(er) OpenVPN for the bulk of thei

Very good question. The answer is, of course, 'it depends'. What is depends on is how much horizontal scale you expect to have. At a small scale, you can use something like postgres as a centralized broker of sequence. A single po

The British are so strange. This kind of abuse of power would never be contemplated by American authorities.

I think in many cases you will be right and 'they' won't be able to secure it. This will force them to contact out those applications to someone who can. Plenty of SaaS providers able to secure a network. Just because my inco

'Game over': I think this is exactly the problem. In all the organizations I've been in, firewalls have been an excuse for negligence. 'We don't need to think about security because we are behind the firewall.'

An idea that I got after reading Guns, Germs, and Steel was that at a basic level, killing other humans is the correct response to most threats, annoyances, or disagreements. Manager wants to micromanage with story points? Kill him. Problem

PubSub messaging is definitely a PaaS feature more than an IaaS feature, so it's going to be less portable until we have the problem so well surrounded that we get some sort of open source abstraction to the whole problem and all of it

What I've overheard on some podcast discussions is that they are taking the multiplatform Silverlight runtime, and have enhanced it to be a headless server-type runtime instead of browser-plugin-UI-focused. It doesn't include all

This will probably be fixed in a soon software update. HW sensor issues are strange, but understandable in a new product. Also, it's a pretty small impact. The damning thing in your statement is your conversation with apple engineers..

I suggest that you provide easy one year purchases. It is much easier for my manager to sign off on one purchase than a recurring bill. Also, number of users is unlikely to be my purchase level decider. Perhaps you could differentiate the l
