HL7v2 is just the schema - the mechanism for sending these messages is normally something called MLLP which is just a simple framing protocol and has no built in security. It is possible to send/receive HL7v2 over other protocols, MLLP

This is because RoR projects do not do unit testing, they do integration testing with a real DB. This approach is terrible and causes the poor performance. There are whole sets of testing "tools" for RoR projects that promote this

Funny because my anecdote is that any devs I've worked with who only use an IDE are average to flat out bad at software development.

Disasters like powershell returning a 0 exit code even if there is an error? Its a pile of trash that doesn't add anything new other than a big shiny MS logo.

Powershell is a horror you mean, it's got the verbosity of objective c with the consistency that comes with all Microsoft designed products. Just use a proper scripting language.

We did and so this didn't cause us a major issue today. At my lost job we had the same. And the one before that. This mitigation of a risk that affects business continuity is something that all senior level people need to take seriousl

So I'd recommend Ny-Ålesund (but be prepared for a very long and uncomfortable boat trip if you go there and back in a day) plus the Soviet ghost town Piramida - remember to take your passport as you can get it stamped with a Russian s

Svalbard is a fantastic place to visit, especially if you want to get away from everything - it's like having a weight lifted from you as soon as you leave the area of paved road in Longyearbyen.

It doesn't work because your changes conflict? How would anything else handle out of order modifications to files that cannot be resolved automatically? There will always been a requirement to do this manually - otherwise the VCS would

From my own experiences, the new assassin's creed game, Valhalla, was much buggier when it came out - hundreds of game breaking quest bugs and things as basic as saved games not working and people losing over 30 hours of progress. Cybe

Hello, I'm looking for opinions on low code tools that people may have used, such as Appian, Mendix, Pega etc. I have a project I've been working in my evenings on since lock down started (see link) and I'm after opinions on
