Only having two production database servers? That is a mistake, because as soon as you need to do maint. on one, you have just voided your DR recovery plan. Two is one, one is none.
Why is one of these acceptable and the other three are not? India isn't a very diverse place, nor the Middle East, nor Africa. Yet I don't see anyone insulting those people. Seems like you're okay with racism, as long as it's called "diversity" and only talks about white people in majority white countries.
Yes, please, make travel even more inconvenient while accomplishing nothing. Punching people in the face at airports and then taunting them for a facebook video, and harassing innocent travelers is NOT how you win the hearts and minds of your fellow citizens and elected officials.
Nope, being in a group just makes it harder to brainstorm. This has been proven over and over. The correct technique is to define the problem together, then each person alone develops solutions via brainstorming / investigation, then the team meets again and everyone discusses their findings.
Having everything happen in a group setting discourages people from sharing their ideas after two or three members start agreeing with each-other because of the unconscious social pressure to fit in with the group. It's been studied and documented.
This guy is really dramatic and acts like this is the end of the world. The USA is at war with Muslim terrorists. If Muslim terrorists come from certain countries, it makes sense to have strict checking on people from those countries.
If I have a webapp, I'm going to be rejecting and sanitizing user input from things I know to be dangerous, such as single quotes and HTML tags. If you can't prove you're safe inputs to my country, you're not getting in, sorry.
Good, glad to see this is in the private sector where it belongs. Climate change was seriously ramping up to be just another ridiculous tax with questionable results, burdening those who can't afford it most. If preventing climate change is such a good idea, we don't need the government to stick a gun in your face unless you comply with whatever scam they come up with.
The media loves to do this, but those quotes are taken out of context. Basically everything Trump says is wildly taken out of context.
The context of his nuclear weapons comments are basically, "If someone thinks they can beat the U.S. in nuclear capability, they are wrong. We will always be the best, so don't even try Russia and China."
Stop being so dramatic. Name a single concrete thing that makes your life worse than 1930s era depression bread lines. Have you had to stand in any breadlines recently? Ever been ruled by a communist dictator? 100 years ago hot water was a luxury for only very rich people and the average lifespan was some ~30 years.
Yes we have environmental challenges from our modern lifestyle but if you want to go back to being dead at 30 on average be my guest. I'll take the "never been worse" environment, the internet, self-driving cars, and everything else that's going really well.
Yes a leader with some policies you might not agree with got elected. Guess what? I've had 8 years of that. Did I go around posting how "threatened" I was by Obama? No. I could have, after all, the extra-judical drone strikes, fast and the furious scandals, increasing race-baiting and racial tensions were all prime candidates. Stop letting people make you so fearful and scared.
Sig p226 performs better than a glock in reliability tests. Glocks perform very poorly in water, for example. They fail the standard over-the-beach test, as shown here:
Also p226 is made of metal and glock is polymer. Metal > plastic. I could club someone over the head with a p226 and never have to worry that the frame will crack.
None of that matters. If you're gaining weight, consume less calories until you start losing weight. Safe weight loss is a lb a week. It will take quite some time to safely slim down. That is the problem, it took years to put on the weight, people try eating less for a couple weeks and throw up their hands! People don't realize if they are 50lbs overweight, it will take about a year to lose all that safely and comfortably.
I know this is anecdotal, but I know a guy who used to be a very close friend. Was always pretty straight-edged. Good guitar player. Started hanging out with some weed smokers, started smoking, then he developed some kind of psychosis from the weed and now is on seroqil or however you spell it. Totally ruined his life and he's just not even close to the same person he was.
Weed plays with your mind and your mental state. I don't care if you use it, but please be careful. I have seen it ruin a very nice and good person's life. I won't touch the stuff after seeing that.
Why did the national parks service find it appropriate to bash the incoming administration on social media? Are you not the least bit concerned about the unprofessional attitude of our federal employees and agencies?
I don't need to know someone's country of origin when they are wearing a burqa to know I don't want any part of that culture to be in my country. There are plenty of pleasant middle east countries to choose from where they can abuse women and stone gays. My country is not one of those (yet).
If you don't defend your copyright you lose it. Taking legal action is appropriate. How many times does Microsoft have to make this "mistake" before it's seen as just ripping off people's code, hoping they don't notice, and then getting to make money off of said code? Microsoft is one of the largest software companies in the world, and they don't have the tooling in place to be able to use other people's code without keeping the license in tact and legal? I don't buy it.
