A real x86/64 bare metal server for ~ us$3.30/mo inclusive, wow, it seems like only yesterday people were drooling at $99/mo 300mhz Cobalt RAQs at ev1servers (it was more like 15yrs ago). I was able to spin one up in <1min however I was previously registered at scaleway due to their last offering.
Wow this takes me back, we poor UK modem users used to order linux cds from sktechy Micromart adverts, or fork out 40 quid to suppliers like software warehouse (now defunct) when Red Hat Linux was just RHL and came in a box too (no enterprise, fedora not yet born). Never used this particular distro though, $80 for the deluxe edition, one can buy a whole computer pre-loaded with Linux/Android even Win10 (in some scenarios) for less than that price nowadays. Makes me feel lucky
Developers will find parse-server should they desire it without acquiring a premium domain name (parse.com is alone very valuable - in terms of single word purity and in terms of SERPs / links backs). Any kickstarter cash would be better going to develop community momentum and support contributors imho.
In this case it is obvious high rank Iranian officials both government and private (in banking network) were complicit for a long time with Babak, perhaps the brown envelopes got a little too small..
It is unclear if they are blocking paid/public VPNs only, which to be fair are no more secure than without, can you really trust some anonymous guy/gal who purchases a few random dedicated servers and VPSs at different global budget providers with providing a secure exit node?
I can't see Netflix would have a legal problem with one running their own VPN on a cloud server within the same country, but I'm yet to find example of particular bannings.
How is Netflix detecting VPNs, just by IP whois details of popular VPN providers and non-residential ISPs? or special client-side latency detection from the origin to the browser?
This old chestnut has been published in mainstream media for decades, the Daily Mail in the UK much feature it at least once a year (on the odd day a cancer scare doesn't exist). I remember every exam been given chocolate to take with me, and we're going back to early/mid 90s here.
Let's hope co-working center remain quiet, coworking centres its the obligatory 50% procrastinating on facebook (top blue bar), then 25% on slack (purple left side) and the rest possibly doing some work. At least with phone (and skype on phone) people take their calls outside or to a booth
Yikes, hopefully it doesn't contain a chapter on building a training course, with something as sad as #trailhead where contestants, sorry certified solution experts, dress up in Halloween outfits and post selfies to twitter for extra badges...
Does it come with the catch that I have to join his professional network? Do people working at LinkedIn have to use LinkedIn? I always wondered the same about Facebook, some awesome engineering challenges but many techies I know, including myself, have zero desire to have a facebook profile
Interesting but it is another technology increasing the complexity of building web sites, also to consider what happens with chains of dependencies and scripts loaded by things like require.js. I don't think it's required, browsers should just have an arbitrary limit of resources a single tab can use, useless the user promotes it somehow (like unity webapps) or apps running in an electron wrapper.
I'm all for Google and Bing analyzing client side performance and penalizing in ranking those that are considered abusive but pushing the responsibility to all eyeballs doesn't seem like a good idea to me. This is Ilya Grigorik though so somewhat desired to retract my opinion.. wait.. click add comment
Criminals are never far behind, this is terrible, but technology isn't the problem here, tougher penalties and more resources to catch those at the top of the ladder in trafficking networks.
Neat idea... Why does it prompt to join mailing list when clicking 'Order one now' and if I close that annoying pop-up nothing happens (still on main page)... Clicking the button again does work though. Latest Chromium if it helps
The free one provided by my ISP some months ago, I suspect/hope that such recent models have better firmware to handle buffer-bloat etc.. but I haven't had enough reason to investigate. I would definitely upgrade anything older than 3 years though given the buffer-bloat lessons during that period.
You can have junior developers with 10 years experience, you can also have senior developers with only 18 months experience. I wouldn't lend too much to a title, it is particularly annoying when one hears people pigeon hole themselves with these titles. That's not to underrate years of experience and mistakes a long the way, but call a spade a spade 'developer with several years of experience'
