I feel it's completely acceptable to wish to stay in an IC position, but to refuse outright to give advise or share the experience (it's hard to tell from your short paragraph) seems... odd? It's acceptable to want to stay in

Bacs in the UK will alert the account holder that a debit has been set up, but to set it up just requires knowing the sort code (routing number) and bank account number. Much like ACH. The account owner can at any time go in and cancel that

I imagine the free plan also doubles as a trial for a paid subscription. Moving issue trackers can be a hassle, so having unlimited time to test out the workflow and features for a small team or project makes good sense, and if you decide t

I really don't believe that to be true. For our application(s) at work, the database is always the hardest part to scale and tehrefore also the biggest performance bottleneck, and the difference between good and bad SQL can be magnitud

Having done something similar to transcode h264 to fragment mp4, there are a ton of pitfalls, weird settings and flags that need to be set to get a "correct" output that will play in most players. FFmpeg/libav provides a ton

At my previous job, we had Fastly as a potential new CDN provider set up against our existing CDN provider and two other new potentials. After a few rounds of calls for bids, Fastly won out. Based on my experience with the other providers t

When would you say you are "done" for a given period with "not having a catastrophic data breach", regardless of OKR? I know some tasks, such as this, is never really done. But for a given period (such as a month or a qu

I can understand the dilemma if you intend to go to Melbourne and "test the waters" and potentially want to move back again. But if you move to Melbourne permanently, I would expect you to sell your house in the EU.

As Apple says in the article, they put quite a few resources into making the whole App store platform, including in-app payments. The issue is that there is no opt-out for the end user - you cannot use a different app store to install appli

You can track the money going from the cold storage wallet into an account that the mixer service owns. Say it's 10.000 coins. The mixer then transfers 37, 185, 205, 1002, and other random amounts to other accounts, which in turn trans

The same goes for Azure. Set up the wrong country / VAT / thing? Better migrate all your cloud services to a new account. No dropdown, no changes, no nothing.

Jurisdiction is a tricky concept in cases like these where we are dealing with digital content. AggregateIQ could have ignored the GDPR-request, ignored any rulings and keep chugging along as long as they stuck to Canada (assuming Canada wa

We had our first child ~3 months ago. We had a room to ourselves and nurses/midwifes would only come in once or twice a day unless they were paged (which we did, they were a godsend). This made the stay as comfortable as could be, and

A Tesla is much more expensive than a Prius, but I think the Tesla is set at a rational price point, even if I could never afford it. Being able to afford an item does not necessarily correlate with whether you think it's priced fairly

I feel that Kubernetes has a lot of "upfront" cost that needs to be tackled - containerization, manifests for all the pods you want to set up, potentially setting up the right persistent storage if needed, user access, logging, et

It is kind of missing the point though. If everyone was competing to make electrical single-person planes to help people commute to work it would also increase demand for renewable/electrical energy - but can we agree, that just using
