Do HN threads get locked?

Also, if you can abstract away at a sufficiently low level why not just do it in C where there's already a generation of experience and familiarity?

I was expecting to see this type of response. I don't program at low levels but it seems like this would be the responding answer. Kernel programmers would be using something else if that's what they wanted to use. Decades of experience and hard learnt lessons down the drain.

Not have I seen it, I've been involved in hiring the person for their next role. There's a lot to be suspicious of but I think most people have been in a position where the personal relationship is beyond reconciliation for no other reason except it's difficult to change well formed opinions.

I once worked with a guy who had previously worked for GCHQ doing something with cyphers/cryptography. He said he had never consumed more drugs in his life than during that period. They didn't care he took drugs as long as he was open about it and couldn't be black mailed through his use of drugs.

They also get dumped every where. The oBikes look awful too. Ofo bikes are of a reasonable quality but obikes on the other hand have never tempted me to use them.

I’m new to Openshift (about a month in) after a year of low level (hand rolled HA cluster) kubernetes experience. I don’t rate the experience in Openshift. It seems like they are trying to tack things on which are superfluous to most teams requirements, loosely defined, and not well advertised.

I’m constantly trying to figure out what it’s hiding from the Kubernetes layer or what it is being manipulated to provide its behaviour.

I personally wouldn’t recommend Openshift->Kubernetes but the other way round would be a better approach once you know you need the additional functionality.

(Edit: fix typo)

Is the date 2002 correct? Which browser was that released for?

Grammar police warning: The comma in “if it doesn’t crash, the bug is present” actually makes the intention more difficult to understand.

It’s a regular occurrence on HN someone dropping an acronym that is so obscure or specific to the topic at hand, and without explanation, that no amount of googleitsu will find the correct decoding. In this case it was pretty easy,nvh = noise, vibration, harshness.

There’s a subset of drivers in the UK who have a resentment to sharing the road with cyclists. Their primary arguments follow; “car drivers pay road tax...” or “cyclists should be forced to sit a driving/road test...” blah blah.

There are certainly cyclists who do nothing to help the reputation for the rest but car drivers fail to realise how vulnerable cyclists and motorcyclists are.

What does this mean in reality... You could make derivative works of the original Mickey Mouse free from copyright infringement? Would copyright still be in place for subsequent Mickey Mouse productions?

It is a secret if you answer the question incorrectly and only you know what the real-fake answer is!
