While I agree that DevOps needs to be a mindset/culture to be of any benefit beside ticking buzzwords checkboxes - but I really don't see any harm in giving someone a title containing the word DevOps.

Someone who can do the proselytism, take initiatives to drive the adaption and at the same time be the go to guy for the technical knowledge needed for any new processes/tools.

We all agree that the old waterfall inspired way of working when the developers work on their own, throws a bunch of new code down a hatch for the ops guys to deploy and they both blame the other team when something don't work is less than desirable.

Maybe there are some startups that have the devops mindset already from the beginning and a few old companies that can get there on there own, but I think many need some help to get there. Perhaps they could hire someone to get them started?

Most of us here on hacker news can afford to buy real food such as grass feed beef/lamb, forage egg/chicken, etc

Seems like a more natural evolutionary correct way to get our food rather than some kind of franken-meat grown i lab.

Every autumn I buy a lamb from the farmer living next to my father, I kind of like it when I can watch my food being happy before I eat it.

In some places 8 hour workday was achieved by union organized strikes, in other places by law decree and in other places by non-unionized workers and employers as an agreement.

The 8 hour workday was made possible by increasing productivity, mostly due to accumulated production capital and technological improvements ...

I'm a native Swedish citizen, Sweden is perhaps not a banana republic - but the number of pretty serious oversteps done by the Swedish government due to a mixture of incompetence and the will to please other powerful nations are to many to neglect.

Going on since the forced sterilization, German troop transports, extradition of baltic citizens to the soviet union and seizure of newspapers before publication in the days of the second world war .... continuing to today with the Da Costa case, the Egyptians kidnapped and sent to torture by the CIA with help of the Swedish government, the pediatrician accused of murder, the whole Thomas Quick embarrassment .... the list can be made rather long.

And there is obviously a great deal of pride and prestige put into this case by the attorney, who has not been exactly working their ass off to get the investigation going forward - even bending their own rules quite a bit with the obvious intention to inflict maximum discomfort to Julian Assange - and that makes me distrust their honesty and the entire basis for this case.

"A low-glycemic-load diet improves symptoms in acne vulgaris patients: a randomized controlled trial"

Cohort size 43 persons.

My summary: At 12 wk, mean total lesion counts had decreased more in the low-glycemic-load group ( 23.5 +/- 3.9) than in the control group ( 12.0 +/- 3.5).

Did you measure ketone levels in any way?

Your symptoms is very common during the ketosis adaptation phase which shouldn't last more than two weeks at most.

If they persist any longer than that you are probably not in ketosis.

The best way to measure ketone levels are through blood ketones (beta-hydroxybutyrate) with a blood tester such as the precision extra or similar.

There are some breath analyzers such as the ketonix that measures acetone levels in your breath - and they are alos pretty good.

Urine sticks don't generally don't work very well after the first month.

The mycotoxins stuff is yet to be determined, but from what I seen so far there doesn't seem to be a lot of truth in that part.

The ketosis and positive effects on the brain thereof is backed by a lot of solid science.

Why not use the existing rsync over ssh and ssh-copy-id?

I think newline is valid in filenames in most *nix filesystems, so the possibility to use an alternative RS would be nice.

Even if income could explain the whole difference it would still not be a very agreeable explanation.

Even though it's a naive idea, I still think that everyone should be entitled to the same level of legal support in a criminal case regardless of your socio-economic status.

I recall the ted talk http://www.ted.com/talks/bryan_stevenson_we_need_to_talk_abo..., if a black man is found guilty of murdering a white woman in Alabama, he is 400 times more likely to be sentenced to death compared to a white man found guilty of murdering a black woman.

I sometimes think about what the reaction would be if statistics showed that the German courts disproportionately often decided to sentence Jews to death?

Perhaps there are some things that could be improved within the penal system in the United States?

If google makes a mistake when data-mining my e-mail, I may get an inappropriate ad displayed next to my e-mail.

It the authorities make a mistake when looking at my data, I may end up in jail or on the no fly list.
