    For pub/sub yes that's correct. For full info though: Redis later added streams (in 5.x) for the don't-wan't-to-miss case: https://redis.io/topics/streams-intro

    Clarification there: I have a US-8 behind each TV, taking 802.11af loads to power. For the TV with an AP or something else PoE behind it, those switches can take in 802.11at and ou…

    I don’t know. I am so very much trying to find out and push to make things better.

    I just wanted to chime in from Stack Overflow here and let people know: we are aware of the issue. And we're NOT okay with it. We're trying to sort out how to kill the audio behavi…

    12,095,709 questions have an answer, 7,506,004 of those have an accepted answer, and 1,813,270 aren't yet answered. I'd say your 1:20 ratio is just a little bit off :)

    We could - but the network side isn't the problem. There's a lot of logging, user banning, etc. pieces that need IPv6 love first. We just haven't had the time yet. There are networ…

    Split horizon would point you at the same data center, rather than the writeable one. So that's more of a .local than a .internal. We discussed this, but ultimately the AD version …

    Well, yes and no - it depends on the length. Let's take 3 common examples. Here's GitHub's relevant headers (that we don't have): Content-Security-Policy:default-src 'none'; base-u…

    Well if it wasn't for someone buying .com back in the day, we probably could have them. Oh and then buying . .com after browsers banned that one, which led to RFC 6125 rule clarifi…

    Yep - we're aware. I thought about putting in our Content-Security-Policy-Report-Only findings about what all would break, but the post was already a tad long. It's quite a long li…

    If curious, I did a post on that a while back. I'm settling into a new house and will pick this series back up soon. https://nickcraver.com/blog/2016/02/17/stack-overflow-the-ar...…

    Stack Overflow employee here. This is just my view, but: I wouldn't want to work for Google r Facebook over Stack Overflow. Happiness is part of the compensation and is has real va…

    In the US at least (I can't speak for elsewhere), preventing this is illegal. Companies discourage it through various ways and it's practically an embedded culture thing at this po…

    Correct. I'll be adding this functionality into Opserver so that we can override the health check in HAProxy when we know better.

    Correct. 10 minutes was from checkin to all servers built out, including a dev and staging tier.

    We have an internal tool where we can dump stack traces almost instantly by attaching to a running process. We can't open source it due to using Microsoft lab code which was never …

    Yep...for the on-premise reasons listed in the article. Once upon a time a lot of projects were on Mercurial, hosted by Kiln. The Stack Overflow repo specifically has always been o…

    I don't believe your assessment is correct. I very specifically said built-in. This remains true. If curious, we're on CentOS 7 specifically. I didn't say there aren't any options,…

    It only deploys to our development/CI environment automatically. Deploying out to the production tier is a button press still. So yes, it will build to dev, but we're using this in…
