Re:WTF Ubuntu? on Monday November 02, 2026 @03:34PM (#50343321)
I'm not following, I don't believe a kernel patch like this would be limited to security subscribers. Or is your complaint that there's a security subscription program but no patch has been produced yet?
Let's directly quote Bibi to drive this point home since you want to imply antisemitic intent.

"I know what America is. America is a thing you can move very easily, move it in the right direction. They won't get in the way." - Netanyahu

That's an occupation with no creative interpretation necessary.

I should have said domain expert instead. These two casually chosen words really riled them up

The author isn't exactly a thought leader in the space, or really any space for that matter. Opinion worth nothing.

I applaud their honesty, most companies would choose to keep customers in the dark while the investigate "an incident."

Ember has always dwarfed by Angular and now more recently.. React. They simply have more marketing dollars behind them. That said, it has always had a strong community behind it, and believe it or not it's still growing strong.

And at that point I'd ask what are you optimizing for? Chances are JS is no longer your bottleneck.

Enable gzip
That's assuming everyone composes e-mails through the web UI. Maybe they don't want to make that assumption.

I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned, just enable Safety Mode and avoid overages..

Re:Verizon nears deal to acquire Yahoo on Friday July 22, 2016 @03:57PM (#12146332)
She inherited a mound of shit. The one mistake I'll admit she made was not gutting management when she came in. It is, and was, completely dysfunctional at the management level. The only people rewarded were those willing to play the political games.
Re:Nest’s time at Alphabet on Sunday June 05, 2016 @11:53PM (#11844543)
> Well, it's not like there's been any positive Nest press in the last year or so to obsess over.

Their performance versus the rest of the Google ventures? The product line that was previously leaked? And, in the eyes of Hacker News perhaps celebrating Tony stepping aside.

A lot of these stories, if they are in fact true, likely happened prior to Google acquisition and those people are now just feeling comfortable to speak out without the fear of it being spun as retaliation.

I have a lot of faith that the Google HR department wouldn't tolerate any of the behavior, which is why it smells like a marketing campaign.

Re:Nest’s time at Alphabet on Sunday June 05, 2016 @05:24PM (#11843209)
Hacker news is oddly obsessed with negative Nest press. Suspiciously so.

Can we scale the schools, transportation, etc. to support this legislature? If so, I'm all for it. But the way things stand currently, it's already pushed to the limits.
Re:Norway's $860B Fund Drops 52 Companies Linked to Coal on Sunday April 17, 2016 @10:04PM (#11517300)
Absolutely, but it by no means marks the bottom. Have a look at the last 5 years of KOL (ETF because I can't recall the coal futures symbol).
Re:Norway's $860B Fund Drops 52 Companies Linked to Coal on Sunday April 17, 2016 @08:44PM (#11517075)
It's likely not out of the goodness of their heart but rather coal's terrible performance. There is a bankruptcy filing every other week. This week alone the largest miner, Peabody, filed for bankruptcy.

There is /a lot/ of debt at Yahoo, I think 10% doesn't even begin to cut through the majority of the fat. Unfortunately, most of issues stem from middle management that seem to avoid the layoff cycles.

Re:Why Coinbase is now hiring remote engineers on Sunday December 13, 2015 @12:16AM (#10725495)
I imagine this strategy works against them as I can't think or a single respectable engineer who would be willing to do this. It may work in their favor of recent college grads.. but certainly not seasoned engineers.

Big game hunting. Important words you dropped. And the reason it is a mental sickness is because they're not hunting for food or survival, they're hunting for the sake of destroying life.
