I hope the lot of you that were saying "the judge is just busting the prosecution's balls so his judgement stands up to appeal" feel real fucking silly right about now

Try not to commit any crimes on your way through the parking lot!

Well yeah, it costs money to comply with regulations usually (do this expensive thing to help avoid death and destruction).

r121

You realize that corporations end up paying indivudual taxes embedded within wages, right?

r121

True, I forgot about that aspect.

The biggest misconception people have about Docker is that it's like a virtual machine -- it's not.

The program running in your container is just running on your computer like any other process -- it's just restricted so that it can't see any of the other processes on your computer and it has its own filesystem.

You also don't typically go in and edit files in your container. If you want to change something, you rebuild the image using a Dockerfile. The new image will have the new version of your code baked into it and then you can run the image as a container.

Usually this comes down to a tradeoff between performance and simplicity. If you need to be able to handle tens of thousands of items or more in your list with reasonable performance, a database will be the only way to acheive that. Otherwise, JSON is going to be a lot simpler to implement.

I can certainly do a small task in less than an hour. It's the rest of the process that takes the hours...

They also (probably) died in the last few months of their lives

Most people do.

Sorry, I think I was caught up in the comment chain where people were implying that sites can be run where no one has access to production data. At the end of the day, someone's still got root on that box.

r121

[...] and actually put in by a third person with production data access.

So then that third person had the access to edit the data however they wanted.

r121

Fine, you win. I'll go to bed now.

I guess she'll die.

Speciesist.

Security cameras don't all feed back to Google for processing and storage.

It's fun and harmless when used responsibly, but it could fuck you up if you don't have any will power or if you let it consume you.

This sounds scary, until you realize it's true in exactly the same way for, e.g., donuts.

r121

I wish I had that problem.

To be fair, going up is such a small part of getting something into orbit -- most of the fuel is used in getting it going fast enough laterally.

r121

The glass is simply twice as big as it needs to be.

Everytime I write Javascript, I think "Fuck this". But I can never remember what this refers to.

r121

I dunno about you, but they still charged me tuition :(

r121

You really caribou't making bad puns.
