Although dirty, you could still technically use Postgres I believe, you would just need to run it on EC2 and EBS instead. The covered services for the BAA include EC2 and EBS, so you would still be covered under the signed BAA with Amazon. When it is eventually covered under the BAA, you could port over to Postgres RDS.

SEEKING FREELANCER

Seeking a freelancer/ SME to produce an early stage prototype for a small side project. Essentially, need some help rewriting HTML responses dynamically using Ngninx and Lua. Example would be writing up a script that we can feed in to Nginx that will take a resource url (ie ads.google.com) and hide it behind the domain of a site (ie news.ycombinator.com/ads.google.com) and replace it on response without having to run code on an application server.

This is expected to be a short term engagement.

I recently graduated and moved out on my own. I moved to a decently large city in the Midwest, where my apartment company had signed an exclusive with AT&T. To get cable is quite expensive, but the AT&T contract here means they don't do any sort of packaging. I've got neighbors who are paying 50-60 a month for basic cable... Which would be fine, except that you can buy a $50 antenna from Amazon and get channels with much, MUCH better quality than what you can get with cable. Plus, it's free.

I also thing a major part of this might be that colleges don't really have cable... So students spend a year without cable, realize that they don't really need it and that it's expensive. I definitely think that not having cable at Universities causes some of "I can live without" attitude you're seeing here.

I was hoping to see some updated information on the HTC Re Vive, though I'm not seeing it on the page, especially since it's expected to release sometime in November. However, I am significantly more worried about the performance problems that may exist with the Vive, particularly with its twin high-resolution displays. My 970 already has a hard enough time pushing new games at 60 fps on High or Ultra, I can't imagine it pushing twice the pixels without seeing significant performance problems...

Thank you.

I honestly can't tell if this is supposed to be a sarcastic comment on current state of copyright and copyright enforcement in the US, or if this is actually suggesting that people contact ASCAP and Time Warner about violations. I'm quite sure that it is actually talking about the difficulty of enforcing bans on popular songs that the general public assumes are in the public domain. Maybe my Aspergers is showing...

I agree with everyone here. On a side note, I've just purchased a Lenovo ThinkPad T450s, had them throw an i7, 8 GB of RAM, and an SSD in it an it's a great machine. I'm running Ubuntu on it right now, it seems to have pretty good support, though the keyboard backlight is a bit finicky.

I honestly don't know how the Chromecast is set up. Would that prevent me from being able to access Google Play content? I seem to be able to Cast to Amazon FireTV sticks and PS4s, though I have no idea if they work since I don't have one, nor do I know if that even works.

That is an awesome library. It didn't see any sort of documentation, but I imagine that this does not work on a local library, correct? I believe at some point I heard that there were some DNS settings on the Chromecast that couldn't be changed?

Personally, I'm really looking forward to someone creating some sort of an open-source receiver clone that I can install on my Nvidia Jetson or some other SoC. I would love to be able to use it as a (fully supported) Chromecast without the need to actually buy additional Chromecasts. I've been looking at it as a way to add decent audio and video control to a home automation system I'm building, but nothing is as easy as the Chromecast.

Are you on a single plan with 9 other people? If so, that really isn't a fair comparison. A single line on T-Mobile is a fair comparison.

I'm hoping that their Wifi <--> 4G handoff for calls works better than the T-Mobile handoff. I've noticed that on our enterprise network the extra time it takes to authenticate causes the call to drop. I do understand that the problem has to do with the software implementation and not android, but I'm assuming systems like that are reasonably similar or are provided by some outside vendor?

My assumption is that these students blame the others if things did not go as they had planned. For instance, the losing party in a vote would become aggressive towards the other and attempt to sabotage their projects. If you have never worked in a group where the people who do not get their way sabotage the group as a whole, I would consider you very lucky.

I'm interested in finding out how voting on rules and regulations does not cause passive-agressive behavior or jealousy. It appears, based on this brief article, that the school itself is basically a long-term babysitting service. I don't know many parents who would be able to spend $11,000 a year on schooling for their child, though it appears the school itself is targeted at those who don't want the teacher to make their child do any real work. Is the school not held to the same state-mandated curriculum as public schools? I could imagine that, as a student, I would never have accomplished anything within that environment.
