In general, I see industries use SAML to protect something that shouldn’t be protected. It’s highly obfuscated security to implement control for the sake of control. For example, to watch the Olympics live streaming on the web, you had to log in using SAML SSO over to your cable/satellite provider. NBC covered the 2012 Olympics, which is a free, over-the-air station. Yet, they chose SAML to protect something that everyone should see for free. I do not waste my money on cable TV, so the path of least resistance to watch the Olympics was to just pirate the content. Sad, really.

There is one reason why never to wear sandals with socks: it looks shit. Other than that, you’d be right. If you want to look like a pimply boyscout or socially inept dweeb, fire away. It’s also partly manners. As a rule we don’t generally eat with our mouths a gape, similarly socks && sandals == tasteless. It has nothing to do with conformity for the sake of it, that’s like criticising those of us who eat with cutlery of being “snobby conformists”. Socks and sandals certainly are mutually exclusive of one thing: looking like your Mommy didn’t dress you in the morning. If that’s a perception you wish to cultive, good luck to you.

Maybe you’re a closet sock festisher, but what you do in the privacy of .. yada yada, is no ones business.
You might not subscribe to that view point, but I’d compare socks and sandals to nudists. Very few people look good strutting around naked, I don’t want to see the hairy butt-crack of my middle aged neighbour any more than I wish to see socks with sandals. And besides, it defeats the point of sandals: they originated from *hot* countries to alleviate sweating and discomfort.

On a tangent: the presence or absence of a ring of skin on my member doesn’t define anyone (save the membership in one of two groups) – what one does with said member is more likely to define their sexuality.

Finally, my rant is near closing, it’s time to grow up, roll with certain things in society and adjust to civilised tastes – there are ways to tie and wear a tie, not string it aimlessly around one’s neck. And so sandals, no socks. Get over it.

But you know that Apache will spawn different processes when you run your php web app in the real world do you? So its not multi-threaded but multi-process with single threads which is quite the same when it comes to load for redis.
