I'm new to programming in the last few years, so please excuse my ignorance here. When I hear/read the word "ergonomics", I think of proper posture and hand/head/eye position when you're working on a compu

It's going to kill morale if you keep that guy around. If they're talking to you that much about him, there's probably a lot more they're talking about that you never hear. Fit goes further than skill, in my opinion. If

I wonder if this means that virtualization will be impossible without some sort of emulation layer. If so, that seriously blows.

https://mailinabox.email I generally recommend against administering your own email server, but this may be a good idea for you. I use this for one of my own domains. I have it hosted on a Digital Ocean droplet. They take a lot

My take? Skip business school. You can learn nearly everything a biz track would give you by reading "The Personal MBA" by Josh Kaufman. I admit it. I'm an outlier here. Unless you're going to be a doctor/lawyer&#x2

I'm not sure what all this entails, but if I were you, I'd raise your rates.

I'm curious. What kind of work are you doing at this rate?

I had a full-time job, and my side gig was only 10 hours per week that I was doing in addition to my FT job. Then I went full-time as a contractor for my side gig.

Love it. Initially, I was thinking that it wouldn't be as sturdy a build as the ThinkPad W530, but it's been great.

With all due respect, this doesn't seem like the best advice. Part of the appeal of Hashicorp tools (terraform, and also vagrant and others) is that they are platform-agnostic. The tagline even says "ONE SAFE WORKFLOW ACROSS PROVI

The 32GB RAM requirement limits your options and should make it easy for you to find options. Dell XPS 9560 Dell Precision Mobile ThinkPad W series Eurocom I'm not sure your budget will allow you newer models. Maxed out XPS cost me $27

Yes, absolutely. I've had Chrome tabs take an inordinate amount of RAM and CPU and make the fans spin up. Enough so that other things were slow.

Another implied solution perhaps... don't use so many tabs? (I promise you, I'm speaking to myself as I say that. I use way too many, myself)

I wanted to solve this very problem, and use !iTunes to play audio files on the Mac. First, I went with VLC. It's quite capable. It turns out there's a native Mac app called 'afplay' and it'll do the trick as well.

I was wondering the same thing myself. Digital Ocean had been great for me.

The project I'm working on currently, it's 95% Chef. The remainder is Ansible. We use Ansible for what it's good at, and Chef for the rest.

Everyone is average, at some point. Some folks forget that. The key is, to "human" well, and work to improve your life. Small bits at a time. This goes for vocation, as well as character. Don't be content to remain average.

It means there's lots of eyes on the article and the folks agree. No surprise there.

Call me crazy, but as I've progressed in my career, I learned to be very wary of HR. It became evident to me that while there are multiple things they do, the primary purpose is to shield the company from liability. Not to help you, as

My five year old is a voracious reader. I feel like this is one of the most important educational tools you can give anyone. We stress to her that if you can read, and comprehend, there's nothing you cannot learn. That's why I i

First, I'd start with "Don't run your own email server unless you absolutely have to." Second, if you must... I'd recommend Mail-in-a-Box. MUCH easier to setup / maintain than this one, at least from a curs

When you have a record, there's almost always a middleman in the way of you getting a job. Most of the time, that's H.R. HR is NOT your friend. That is another conversation entirely. If you cannot find someone to give you a brea

Question: since an IPO is going to be a matter of public record, why would you want to file it confidentially? What's the advantage? Thanks.

It definitely doesn't have all the whistles and bells of Evernote, but maybe all the OCR and stuff isn't what you're after?
