Curios for the reasoning for not accepting new H-1Bs?

I think he only had GET /door/toggle, which cannot be idempotent.

It's clarified in the next line.

There is always going to be data transmitted other than the game protocol. Most likely that is going to be limited and not at the same time as real time data is being transmitted.

Cool idea. This would be useful to quickly run tests on local env.
Does anyone know if there is a similar project for Java?

I have seen multi-hour SQS outages recently. I'm thinking of options for how we can go about preventing an application failure if this happens again.
* If adding to SQS fails, temporarily store the item on disk or S3, then add to SQS when it's back up?
* any other options?

They can change the model to give a fixed amount of data for free, instead of picking a bunch of sites, breaking NN. I doubt it will happen.

> It has been a few months since I have seen a doctor, but I still receive some new goddamn bill every other day.
I went to a single visit to a hospital once and after the treatment, I got 4 different bills. I was amused why I was getting bills from places I had no idea about. Then I realized each entity had a different billing department - the hospital's bill, the doctor's bill, the tester's bill, etc. all related to the single visit to the same hospital.
I had to call each of the 4 departments and deal with insurance. It was a nightmare!

Can confirm. When I moved to the US, had to pay for incoming SMS. My friends who did not have an unlimited SMS plan, had SMS completely blocked so that they don't receive unwanted messages.

Nice. They should give an option to choose what to share. For example, I don't want to share network info.

We have the same version of OpenSSL on 2 different test nodes.
OpenSSL 1.0.1e-fips
One came up positive, One negative. Shouldn't it be negative for both?

It's really incompetence.
The issue went to the supreme court and they said this matter is for the legislature to decide.
The good thing (unlike Russia) is that almost everyone from the ruling government, media, public, etc want this law abolished.

I guess if you are into something with a passion (programming), more often than not you are going to be good at it and the money follows.
