I've down voted your post because it does not fit the billing strategy of my company. Please make a payment of $9.99 to get the down vote lifted.

I don't see how using infinity in a pacemaker config would be outside typical usage

And the SATA/SAS controller of your Mainboard is invincible? Or the Mainboard itself? Or the CPU? What's your backup solution if they are faulty?

What difference does it make? The price is the price is the price.

But it certainly was the reason why Mercedes stopped using thumbprints for cars in Asia. The thiefs just cut off the finger.

They have at least been adding pyriproxyfen to the drinking water since 2014, but they say that is had no effect on newborns. I personally don't believe that, though.

Can you point out the relevant RFC, please? Didn't know about that.

I really, really like Linus Torvalds idea for the kernel: "no regressions". NO. REGRESSIONS. I have no idea what the problem of Lennart is.

I do this process in code, actually, by using a somethat TDD-like methodology of "scoping" through the levels of code, where I flesh out the function signatures of all the classes, write the high level stuff like how these classes are coupled (and discover I missed some passing of objcts/values/data/control flow) and then the rest is just typing. In almost all of these cases there is a lot of thinking involved before typing ANYTHING where I take 2 or 3 days after first looking at the problem to think about different aspects of the problem and that sub-problems they might have.

Not sure how this works in the US, but "fair trial" means (at least in German law) that the defendant has full access to all evidence brought against him before it is brought to court, right?

Source?

You forgot DNSSEC +DANE

Nobody mentioned the yellow sticky header on the "kill sticky headers" page...?

Really depends on your scale. If you just run half a rack of equipment a lot of these costs are factored in by your housing company. But you come to a certain point where you need to invest in a RIPE membership, where you need a router that costs 100k€. Plus a spare one. Where you need someone to watch the monitoring 24h sitting in the DC - just in case. Even if a lot of this stuff is free, it needs to be setup up and managed all the time.

Let alone the cost for DDoS mitigation. Thats an easy 300k€ worth of equipment plus lets say 2x40 GBit/s links for lets say 40k€ each per link and month. Over the course of two years thats easy 1 million euros, just to handle DDoS. Even if you just need 10 GBit/s capacity, you might need 10x that capacity in a DDoS situtation.

What exactly do you miss for it to be exciting?

Looks like one of the best DoS vectors against a person: just hide an encrypted drive in his house and produce one or two people who claim to have witnessed he/she a) saves illegal files on that drive and b) knows the password. Boom, person gone forever.

Plus he is willing to help out when you need to nail down a bug, as I recently discovered with bcache. My first Linux kernel patch might be a fix of a deadlock in bcache :-)

One more comment that saves quite a lot of money in the phase where you are building your company: DO NOT APPLY FOR VAT TAX EXEMPTION!

If you are in the initial investment phase and you have more bills than earnings, you'll get 19% of the bills back from Finanzamt. You'll pay 19% of your invoices, too, but if thats less, you're saving.

If you're starting to earn, the Finanzamt will remove the exemption anyways.

Don't know if that makes sense for an outsider, but just read it up and thank me later.

Not with bash but with less :-P

Wait, wait, wait. It's not about the photography industry (which would be the transportation industry) bit about the camera (automobile) industry.

We use 2x SSD and 2x HDD in Adaptec HW RAIDs and then use bcache to speed up the HDD RAID with the SSD RAID.

I would have thought that Mac users would be a good target in general because they might have better income than Windows users...

Someone has to sue them, now. And it costs a huge sum of money, like 10k+€.

Misleading title. It's a tutorial to setup HDFS with S3 and not a discussion on why you should move your billing database onto ephemeral storage (which was what I expected from the title).

IMHO you can skip most of this except #2. Key-only login is very important, blocking access with fail2ban not so much. But you definitely need to send your logs to another box so you got a copy (that is unreachable for the attacker) of the logs that this guy definitely removed from the hacked system.

If it was my e-mail provider (like, the one I manage, based in Germany) they could bloody try. We keep our mouths well shut until the day we're presented with a court order. And we already had some major abuse cases with foreign countries. We only complied with one (had to) where someone imported explosives and border police was... quite unhappy.

Then don't connect from UK but use a VPN if your government censors your Internet connection...

If you haven't noticed (and American citizen sometimes are kinda ignorant in that way): "EU" is not a country. It can't do sh in this matter. It's like saying "OPEC won't protect this guy"...

Yes. Don't be "somebody"", just be yourself and work on improving a few skills plus get out of your comfort zone. Go to an acting class. Learn a new language. Go to a small, special cafe every day where the people after a while greet you like family. Read "a guide to the good life" and really reflect about it. Then read it again.
