No, actually UID=0 in the container is the same root as the host.

By default there is no user mapping.

I have studied the Cold War and SDI ("Star Wars".)

Russian and US leaders thought that MAD was idiotic - that defending your country against your adversaries was of the highest importance, not retaliating after your capital was in ashes.

That was the motivation for the Moscow ABM ring (still exists) and SDI (the ABM part worked, the lasers didn't.)

MAD is for policy wonks and technocrats, and is not what leaders rely on.

> old systems can't cope

Actually "old systems" aren't the bottleneck.

It's limited gates and radio frequency time.

And those will be less of a problem after 1/3 of aircraft turn into pumpkins when they "forget" to do the mandatory ADS-B installation this year.

For those unfamiliar, Sully never flew again after the ditching because of "sleep disturbances." His co-pilot did continue flying airlines.

Some pilots were able to successfully do a 180 in a commercial sim and land the plane at the airport.

But the fact that nobody died was celebrated at the time, since a lot of people thought the USA had lost its ability to do anything right after the 2008 recession.

Sully is an important spokesman since he's not affiliated or beholden to any company now.

I have worked at Netflix.

The history is that mainly they used well-known CDNs for streaming, followed by their OpenConnect CDN network now. AWS has always been used for metadata.

I'm not aware of them streaming from AWS, though it's possible a development group there did a test or something temporarily.

Actually the pilot anecdote is nonsense. Emergency procedures are part of the procedures you're supposed to be able to execute, typically in a simulator.

A stronger anecdote would be asking an airline pilot to fly an aerobatic maneuver in an airliner like an outside loop or aileron roll.

(There are only a couple of aerobatic maneuvers done in an airliner. For example, when power is stuck at full throttle or the elevator forces the plane to climb, a quarter aileron role can be done for recovery.)

This is a nice article, but note that bash4 has a debugger built-in.

Recent linux distros or those upgraded because of CVEs will have it.

> It's time for the Feds to insist that Boeing return to developing aircraft in an adversarial manner,

Generally speaking, the government cannot maintain a staff of aerospace engineers since they would rapidly fall behind industry engineers, you know, actually building airplanes with current materials.

However, the FAA could pay for engineers to provide oversight and also test pilots. Either group would have caught the MCAS issues.

Most FAA oversight has always been paperwork-related. You don't need to be a pilot to be an FAA employee.

What's with the "embedded antennas" references?

Microstrips have been used in planes for decades.

Again, this is nonsense since the F-35 will never be flown at low altitudes for CAS since the Air Force won't risk their fighter pilots.

Also, aerial refueling can only be done away from the battlefield where the tanker is safe.

> NoSQL products like DynamoDB, Cassandra, Redis, MongoDB

As a DBA ...

Cassandra is despised. And I would say Postgres is growing a lot faster than MongoDB. Redis caching and zsets power the Internet now.

NoSQL, in general, has a much more limited set of mgmt. tools and has fallen out of favor recently for SoT.

> SQL databases never fall over and are the pinnacle of modern software engineering

Well, RDBMSs almost never fall over when you use SSD and indexes. And they really are the pinnacle of software engineering. Sounds like you're not a DBA.

The above comment is remarkably uninformed, though par for the course on HN.

Loiter time is extremely important for ground support. Otherwise the enemy just waits for the F-35 to fly over.

And reliable means dispatch rate, not losses, especially for tiny fleets (under 200) like the F-22.

First of all, you're an outlier. Most people don't want a box on their head, especially for any length of time.

Second of all, I don't know of any GA or airline simulators that use VR.

What you're describing is irony.

Regulatory capture is when a company gains control of their regulator through bribery or promise of jobs.

For example, if you look at Wall Street's regulators, the most powerful are former financiers. Which is why any effort to impose fiduciary rules on brokers (ie. salesmen) is doomed. aka "Where are the Customers' Yachts?"

Pilots are generally only paid for actual flight time. At scheduled airlines, dispatchers do most of the pre-flight prep.

You can use almost any TLD for personal projects, though a few have support issues and should be avoided, like .vg.

For business use, some domains are poorly managed, like .io, and the registrar can be taken over or easily DoSed. These would not pass a vendor security audit, so stick with .com.

As a student of WW2, there's no indication that Ike was not serious about what he said in that quote.

In fact, he was offered and declined a presidential ticket immed. after WW2 to command NATO in Korea. So he wasn't politically-motivated.

One thing you could possibly fault Ike for is that when he criticized the military-industrial complex (MIC), he pulled his punches: he wanted to add Congress (a la MICC) but realized that doing so would make them feel defensive and reduce his support.

The reason Ike talked about the wastefulness of war was that the entire industrial outputs of the USA, Europe and Japan for almost a decade were wasted.
