The thing about kereru is they are thiccc. Even when they aren't drunk flight is a serious challenge for them on account of their very low chonk-to-brain-cell ratio. When they fly, they make a really loud fwop-fwop-fwop noise as they use their sheer girth to pull themselves through the air against gravity, natural law and common sense.
The US deliberately hid their involvement in some absolutely horrendous crimes - von Brown oversaw a facility where tens of thousands of people were murdered - so they were not prosecuted for war crimes. There were plenty of people in the US who could have replicated the work, but they were so worried about the Soviets that they let some truly monstrous people go totally unpunished to get ahead
Unpopular (?) opinion - text/IM systems are asynchronous messaging systems, and in most cases it's totally reasonable to not immediately jump on your phone and answer a message as soon as you get the notification.
One of my friends is the sort of person who will stop mid sentence when their phone pings so they can answer whatever they've been sent and it drives me nuts
One the one hand, fuck Rudy, hope they find every cent of his and he ends up living out the rest of his days in a dingy, shitty apartment wallowing in his own piss while barely being able to afford food.
On the other hand, if you lent him money it's because you are either an amoral leech, or your expected favours from Trump in return.
Absolute immutability is kind of a terrible property for a financial system though, cos it completely ignores the fact that mistakes and fraud happen and you need a way to forcefully recover funds other than "lol sucks to be you I guess".
The one actually genuinely useful application for this kind of technology that anyone has come up with is Certificate Transparency, but crypto people don't get excited about it cos it's not possible to make money from it.
I'd considered doing something similar at some point but couldn't quite figure out what the likely behaviour was if the workers lost connection back to the control plane. I guess containers keep running, but does kubelet restart failed containers without a controller to tell it to do so? Obviously connections to pods on other machines will fail if there is no connectivity between machines, but I'm also guessing connections between pods on the same machine will be an issue if the machine can't reach coredns?
The point of the bond is that if the appeal fails, the court just hands the money over - shes probably more likely to see the cash this way than if he didn't appeal.
Appeals court doesn't give you a "do over" - they don't try the case again, they don't re-decide facts. Appeals court lets you argue that the previous court made an error in procedure. Given how competent Carrols' lawyers were and how totally incompetent Trump's were, I doubt they will be able to find anything.
Do this specifically so a judge has to rule if someone is being a dick or not. File amicus briefs on the definition of being a dick. Assemble a jury of peers to decide if the defendants are being a dick. Appeal to the supreme court to rule if the court erred in their judgement of the dickishness at question in this matter.
Not had to do this myself, but any time we are hiring someone technical their CV lands on my desk.
Having a portfolio at all puts you in the top 10% of candidates. No, sticking your course assignments on GitHub doesn't count.
If I'm hiring a full stack dev, I'd probably be more interested in seeing a well-developed "thin slice" through all the layers than lots of features - it's a portfolio piece, you don't need to convince me to buy it, just that you might be interesting to talk to.
No matter what you do, I'm probably going to ask you to defend your technology/design/architecture choices, partly to see how you react to criticism, partly to see if you can talk intelligently about things.
Personally I'm a pragmatist, so I'd probably rather see that you've gone and found a suitable ORM/front end framework/... and used it sensibly than written everything by hand yourself (a builder who insists on forging their own nails isn't a very good builder), but be prepared to talk about the tools you've used
Isn't the point of the rapture that only the truly righteous who have lived according to God's word go to heaven? So a few thousand people world wide go poof, everyone else gets left on earth cos they have the wrong haircut or worked on a Sunday or once ate pork or prayed in public or are a massive hypocritical bigot or something
The thing about shipping internationally is that you generally need a logistics partner to actually physically move the packages for you, and they also have a legal responsibility to ensure that what they are carrying is legal. I don't know what number of packages you need to have seized by customs before they stop doing business with you, but I'd doubt it's much more than 1.
As a bonus, there are only a handful of logistics companies in NZ that do international outbound, and they are the major domestic delivery companies as well, so if you fuck around enough you could end up finding out that no one will deliver your packages locally either
I'm not a physicist, but I'm pretty sure 64kg of 80% enriched uranium is more than the critical mass.
Tbh, maybe that's fine. Take possession of uranium, instantly teleport back to mediaeval Europe - preferably into the middle of a major court - uranium goes prompt critical and irradiates most of the nobility. They are already a bunch of inbreds, what's a bit more genetic damage?
I live in a place with sensible firearms laws, so this is totally a thing. Gun owners are licensed, and part of that license is a "good character" and "legitimate purpose" check. Self defence isn't a legitimate purpose, so if you start running your mouth on Facebook about shooting people on your property there is a tip line people can send reports to, and you can expect a visit from the local police. Similarly, getting caught DUI will violate the good character requirement and you'll need to surrender your guns - you'd better be able to account for all of the guns registered in your name or you'll end up with a much more serious conviction
