On the show Sons of guns, they already made a drone that can shoot a pistol. Not very hard to do. Drones can withstand very high winds and hold position very easily, lots of hand guns have very little recoil and can easily be shot from a drone with very good accuracy.
I've been a long time elasticsearch user and can say that I personally HATE sql syntax when it comes to querying data in mysql, just because I usually can't get the joins right etc to build a search that is reasonable. However, they might be taking this approach because sql syntax is familiar. JSON data structures for querying over HTTP was used with elasticsearch because they were familiar to most developers. I think overall it helps adoption if you have layers that are not completely foreign to the implementing developers. They could have written their query syntax in protocol buffers or coffescript or what ever the hell they wanted really, but I think that would have hurt adoption.
Iterating over your routes array on every lookup does not seem very efficient, seems like it would add quite a bit of overhead vs just a hash lookup. This lib is so small its easy to see just how route look-ups are done. I've never really dug into any other router to see how route matching is done. I would assume a hash lookup would be the fastest?
I love knockout as well, however, I would love to see something like this added. Not having to declare all bindings and just auto bind to a form would be pretty useful for small stuff like single page forms.
but you are able to donate. The app actually tells you how to donate to your localized station by clicking on the "How to Donate" link in the menu area.
I would assume that the defendants are not going to do a single thing. I highly doubt they are in the united states. the pinkmeth website even makes fun of the "lolsuit". I'm going to guess no response will be given and they will just ignore the whole thing.
Do you have experience with massive http conf files? They become very hard to maintain! There is always going to be tradeoffs between maintainability, speed and ease of use. It just depends what sort of application you are running.
I might get backlash for this advice, but If you are considering bankruptcy, you might want to first consider quitting any job that is providing you income and going on unemployment. Once you have done that for a while, go ahead and take a look at this: http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/Offer-in-Compromise-1
If you are unable to legitimately pay (not working and unable to find work by being on unemployment) you will be able to qualify for the irs' settlement plan.
You are facing being broke either way, your basically going to have to figure out how long your going to be broke...
There are quite a few things you could do to mitigate the burden. Are you still working for yourself, or do you have a full time position? Its going to be a lot easier for you to mitigate this if you are running your own business. Let me know if you want to talk about some strategies to review with a tax accountant. Disclaimer, I am not a tax lawyer, however, I will give you some good points to review with your tax lawyer that they can help you setup.
its really sad to see how many AWS Keys are public in github right now. A quick github search reveals many, many key pairs that were checking as recently as this week.
I'm pretty sure there was someone who could step up. Product owners usually over value their involvement and thus never give up the reigns, going down with the ship instead of letting someone else take over.
Its a very good point that if you are not able to easily revert and change all your secrets and key's then you are in more trouble than just removing them from the commit log.
This really sucks! Does he not have any life insurance? I remember when I was working full time, I had a life insurance policy worth 5x my salary, which should cover the costs for the things he wants to pay off. After becoming a contractor, this was one of the first things I secured. I didn't want my family to be left with nothing when I died.
I have been saying this for years! I don't understand how music and movie companies pay millions of dollars to fight these sorts of products but then spend 10 dollars on delivery of their own content! This product is beautiful, why is it that some dudes in south america can make something so wonderful and the multi billion dollar movie industry can't do jack!
