This starts touching on theology. The reasons you explained are one of the main reasons I am a fundamental believer in agnosticism. That is, I believe we see reality through a human lens, therefore we're fundamentally incapable of unde

I think you're on to something here. I wonder if a gradual loss of empathy is a product of the evolution of a first world country or advanced economy? People die less, and without the threat of random deaths, life itself ends up valued

Disclaimer: Though that's not hard to measure, I did not personally measure it. All I can attest to is that in terms of the macro level of productivity, it was a better experience. The slider between focus work and social interaction a

I had the privilege of working in this environment and I can vouch for Chris here. The design of the Wildbit space works exponentially better than any open office layout could ever work. Communication was isolated to where it was needed, an

Yeah. :/ It happened to be at the same time I was getting things configured to connect to a new VPN that I hadn't used before for the first time. Until about 7am today my home network was a 10.0.0.0/8 network. VPN kept bombin

CSSDEVCONF removes $15 off of the price.

Even better, use CSSDEVCONF for $15 off. I bought it for $10 off and then found this code after, and now I'm kicking myself as much as the guy who bought it for $5 off. :)

I can't argue with you there. I'm fortunate that my current organization isn't this way, but I have worked at places where this has DEFINITELY been the case. It was mind boggling then and it's mind boggling now. The only

Though on one hand I'm inclined to agree with you regarding Nagios, on the other hand I disagree. What you're missing is the concept of developer empowerment. I am a sysadmin / operations engineer, and one trend I've not

I'm sorry I used a term you don't like -- let's get past that though -- What about if the customer you speak of is the DDoS mitigation service? Even without doing this though, if they remove a BGP route and other ISPs cannot

Class. I don't care if people think your style is too harsh. You're here setting a positive example of altruism, and genuinely trying to help out a complete stranger. Props.

I have reviewed for Packt (for free). It was not a bad experience, and the book is now available and getting great reviews ( http://www.amazon.com/Git-Version-everyone-Ravishankar-Somas... ). After this book was released and

This is absolutely true, and it's nice to see attention being paid to a problem that the tinfoil hat in me thinks might just still exist by design.
