Man, that's pretty sweet! Do you ship to Europe?

I thought about leaving, even went to 3 days a week IT, and 2 days something else. I was making some serious headway, but in the end... In IT, people are pretty chill. We share open source, we create new things all the time, we get to solve

There's an alternative solution: update everything, but limit your dependencies. Example: for my (personal) projects, I only use whatever is available in the debian repositories. If it's not in there, it's not on my dependenc

It was a nice monitor stand though, the pizzabox style. You're right on the sudden change! I remember our 386 was sitting flat on the desk, and the (huuuge) 486 tower was upright below the desk. Maybe something to do with the noise? Mu

I have a so-called "intelligent speed limited" in my 2 year old car. It's absolutely terrible. On the highway it picks up the 50km/h panel intended for the bus lanes. Close to where I live it hallucinates a 5km/h li

glinet routers are amazing, but their file sharing lacks authentication sadly (well, mine does, at least). So anyone getting access to you network also gets access to your files. It's mostly fine, until one of you devices gets compromi

This game was (and still is) flippin' fantastic! The single player mode was great, the two players mode was amazing, the music was banging. If you never played it, I highly recommend you give it a try!

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand your question. Can you rephrase?

I don't think the queue has ever been down in 6 years. It certainly never was a breaking point. As for the database, yes, we could do blue/green I guess, but it's a big database and it's more cost effective to rely on th

We have a new project (~ 6 years now) where we implemented a queue with RabbitMQ to temporarily store business events before they are stored in a database for reporting later. It's awesome! It absorbs the peaks, smoothes them out, acts

I agree that it's an interesting question worth exploring. However I'm wondering why we are still at that stage of the game. Animals seem like a "duh, of course" answer to me. They have a brain, a nervous system, they&#

Sorry, why is this even a research? It's uh... pretty obvious they are conscious.

About 10 years ago I interviewed with Radionomy for the lead position on the Winamp revival. By that time I was working on a competing product at another company, and was admittedly a little young for a tech lead position. They didn't

Interesting! Not sure a lot of pro sellers would allow that, but I can see an individual accepting the idea if it means quick cashout

Not saying you _have_ to lower the price, maybe I'm just a cheap bastard ;) You know what you need out of it. EDIT: actually I just noticed it was cheaper through the "unlimited" option. Maybe a simpler/clearer pricing w

Nice! Might need to buy a car soon, so that's handy! A few comments: - maybe add somes weights to the questions? For example it's more important that the rear view mirrors are properly attached than having no stain on the upholste

SQLite reads and writes are already very fast, in particular because it's running in process. The minute you put it behind a socket, you lose that benefit. Also you would have to implement an efficient wire protocol. I just don't

I'm happy that something at all got all the mindshare. Otherwise we'd still each be using something different. Markdown is perfectly usable.

Rubbish I did 4k video editing on my 8GB MacBook air M1, and it's still faster than on my desktop with an AMD 3600X and an Nvidia 1650. Granted, it did swap, but it was still faster. While I agree that 8BG is not much, I completely dis

Kate was my first code editor on Linux. Learned PHP and python on it. I still have nostalgia with the pink syntax coloring it has (had?) for python! Thanks a lot to all the contributors, sure had an impact on my life!

Is anyone actually using this on production servers? A web user/password login with sudo powers sounds... risky. Yet managing the server through a web interface sounds nice. Any feedback here?

Disagree. I will proudly write that my work is AI free.

That magnific.ai thingy is taking a lot of liberty on the images, and denaturing it. Their example with the cake is the most obvious. To me, the original image shows a delicious cake, and the modified one shows a cake that I would rather no
