      But, perhaps I'm being overly sensitive and am reading too much into things.

      Probably this IMO.

      Valid points were made, additional considerations were brought to light, more understanding and concepts came from it... that's how things progress.

      If only a single aspect of something is talked about, and all else is not considered, well I think that's dangerous and how misconceptions and misinformation can form.

            Facebook loss this week is a staggering amount of market cap.

              Slack has purchased HipChat, from Atlassian.

              HipChat effectively built this form of instant messaging platform, but Slack made the big money from it.

                Wow, what a HTTPS discussion that I missed lol. Vulnerabilities will be always there no matter what HTTP or HTTPS you have. I always have argued that having a proxy is still not secure end to end for internal traffic (I know, if anything is internal to your network we have more problems).

                      Nice, Dell has always supported Ubuntu. Most of the new computers we buy for VL licensing come with Ubuntu through Dell.

                            I thought it was an awesome way to generate a RNG seed.

                              It really is. Completely brilliant. Although it uses a LOT of power. But I bet that looks super cool.

                                Yeah, if they are using the biggest one, that thing has a 100W bulb.

                                          I spotted an article somewhere today saying that they're going to offer it as a service. It wouldn't surprise me in the least.
