A femotcell would still need an internet connection from some ISP, correct?

Check out some of the plans from these guys (I am not affiliated)...

Uploading large binary files is an issue.

I have no problems using zoom with only 768kbps upload. I was surprisingly impressed.

Slack remote screen sharing sucks, but I never had a problem with Screenhero. Chatting is fine.

The county voters will pass levies to raise additional monies for the local school system.
Not sure why this is downvoted.

I understand it is one of the easiest pacification mechanisms for parents at the moment, but there is a cost.

Don't defer your parental responsibilities to Google's algorithms,designed to increase engagement, not "learning".

Does anybody read books to their children?

Symmetry, huh?

Please explain the protruding camera from the back of the phones.

Indeed in terms of cellular connectivity, the new iPhones boast a significant jump as we’ve seen an upgrade in download speeds to a gigabit for LTE networks.

I would like to see this speedtest and know the location, please.

Kung Fury meets Black Mirror?

Has anyone watched the Norwegian original? Is it better or worse?

I assume the Norwegian writing is not influenced by an algorithm?

It sounds like they are just ordering stock products from Amazon.
Running on WVO?
Friend and I are fairly obsessed with "older" Dodge diesel trucks.

By older, I mean early 90s. They have tripled in value in the last decade.

Very minimal electronics (has an ECU, cruise control, power doorlocks and windows), and easy to work on.

You can also buy salvaged Tesla parts and make your own vehicle...

That doesn't explain the 10 million vote margin of victory for Obama in 2008.

It is the new television. Advertisers need to reach eyeballs.

...and then litigate against Facebook for 8 years?

Or, license the patent, but why wouldn't Friendster have done the same?

It doesn't sound like she was working for your company, really.

Reminds me of kozmo.com at the end, when they started hiring "experienced" executives from traditional logistics companies.

Best way to take out a competitor is from within?

I thought we could Van Eck phreak the aliens.
Re:My Story as a Homeless Developer on Friday September 07, 2018 @05:48PM (#17937922)
There was a PDF I saw many years ago, posted to craigslist, that was written by a homeless man, but consciously choosing to be homeless.

It had an interesting description of various strategies used.

I think he lived in Hawaii and would eat "free" Burger King by rummaging through the trash during a sweepstakes and finding the coupons for free food.

He also rented a small storage unit to keep his possessions (including a laptop), and had a gym membership for showering.

Anybody else come across this?

Not Verizon (it was winding down Fios deployments around that time)...

You are assuming k8s is already setup and running, right?

Say I want to deploy my application via k8s to bare-metal, Google, and Amazon (so I am not dependent on one provider)...what does that look like?

It seems like we are moving away from standards towards proprietary abstractions with regard to cloud environments.

But, why do you need k8s to do those things, particularly for a single app?

It seems like a very complex architecture to ensure reliability.

I would assume there is so much to do there, particularly impromptu things, that it is a detriment to not be flexible.
Does not work for me.

I am curious about your experience with Redis and millions of users...what were the issues you experienced?
Agreed.

We have already seen this work on "lo-fi" ads.

Ads with obvious spelling and grammar errors, meant to immediately engage those who have no concerns of such things (filter out the critical thinkers).
