So if you rebuild your docker containers every time you deploy, and you deploy daily, security updates should happen on a daily basis. Correct?
Re:Traction Book – A Startup Guide to Getting Customers
on Wednesday September 03, 2014 @07:04PM (#8265916)
I've thoroughly enjoyed and learned from every bit of Traction Book thus far, highly recommend to anyone who is considering purchasing.
I originally posted this on the GH AMA but my account was pending moderation and I got skipped... so.. while you're both here:
Do you have any recommendations on using the traction channels to solve the chicken and the egg problem? Or any other specific reading towards solving the C&E problem?
Do you have any methods for tracking conversions in offline channels or is it basically just talking to your customers and asking how they heard about you?

Re:Prominent GitHub Engineer Quits, Alleging Gender-Based Harassment
on Saturday March 15, 2014 @03:46PM (#7406042)
I have a question. Her tweets were posted multiple times last night to HN. They were up voted and commented on, yet within 20-30 minutes each time, they were flagged as dead and no longer on the front page.
On some, there were newly created accounts commenting in defense of Github and claiming her comments and reasons were fraudulent.
What's up with that?

Re:“The AT&T Hacker” Sentenced To 41 Months In Prison
on Monday March 18, 2013 @01:18PM (#5395591)
I can see where you're coming from saying something like that... But it is a mistake in my eyes. It was an unwise decision that he probably would not have made had he known he faced 3+ years in prison.
That being said, this guy is obviously not a saint. I don't want to sound like I'm defending his affiliation with GNAA or the fact that he went to Gawker with it.
If it had been someone who gives to community, is polite, and respectful, and instead had gone to the NYT or another publication, they still could lose 3+ years of their life. To a mistake.

Precisely that. Sure, he made a mistake, but so did AT&T, and now because of it he's potentially going to spend 41 months of his life in jail. Life is too short as it is.

Seriously, the Wayback Machine is awesome. Just last week I used it to find a website I made twelve years ago at the ripe age of 10. If there are any maintainers/developers reading this, thank you.
The fact that they were able to preserve a masterpiece like this means a lot to me: http://web.archive.org/web/20010124071800/http://expage.com/...
