This map is not accurate. I tested by looking at the Maldives, of which the highest point is only 2.4m above the sea level but even at 7m, the map indicates that some islands would be above the surface.

tl;dr version: Intersection operation took too long, forked redis to enable key retrievals/expirations on a slave instance and ran the CPU intensive intersection on the slave.

Github also has a file finder similar to the Command-T plugin for vim - https://github.com/blog/793-introducing-the-file-finder
This extension is great for exploring but if you know what you're looking for, cmd+t will save you more time.

Maldivian here. The army (MNDF) wasn't able to pick anything up from the surface monitor radars. There is no data to back this story outside of eye witness accounts from the residents of Kuda Huvadhoo.
Can neither confirm nor disprove :(

You can have multiple git repositories within each other so you could just `git init` in the directory you want private, add it to the parent repo's .gitignore and point it to a different remote.

Re:Are STEM Workers Overpaid?
on Friday September 06, 2013 @01:25AM (#6338835)
Wages are so skewed towards the top earners - A typical corporate CEO gets paid $7000/hour. Suppressing tech wages isn't going to make a dent in income equality. Tech is already more egalitarian with the offering of shares to employees at most (if not all) levels.

Re:Worst CAPTCHA Ever

Haha, sadly the vast majority doesn't last past 6 years due to EOL on various components and inflexibility to changing business requirements. A more common need is the ability to have a scapegoat / fall-guy for failures of projects that have unrealistic/arbitary requirements and/or deadlines set by an upper management that is no longer in touch with technology.

Exactly. They're not the people everybody trusts to determine if incoming traffic is human/machine.
Your response implies that they are inept at their area of expertise.
