This looks more like an attempt at criticizing the bloat people add to their websites basically just to change the font from Times New Roman. I can't really see this competing with bootstrap, since it lacks all the custom components.

Thanks for the valuable insight, 50 amps look like the sort of current you would see while a car's starter motor is running. Out of curiosity, do you shut down the equipment automatically when the engine is killed? I imagine drawing so

This is really cool, looks like HDR environments in real life. Makes me wonder if this could be used in conjunction with cameras and some clever image processing algorithms as a camouflage method.

I wonder if all the tech in those cars requires modifications to the vehicle itself, like a larger alternator to satisfy the power requirements or reinforced pillars to support the weight of the hardware. It'd be cool to hear from some

As a non-English programmer who has seen a lot of code not written using English please, god, NO. The mixture of English and other languages identifiers in the external libraries makes me cry.

You can set up your actions to build an executable for each commit on the master branch, it will be available as an artifact in the actions tab. This is useful if you want to test your built code. Generally speaking, you shouldn't modi

Do native Java APIs, when paired with special hardware work on such a solution? For example I think It would be cool to attach an Ethernet NIC to such a board and just use Java's HTTP libraries. Another aspect is, the size of the binar

I mostly work on solutions used in-house by the client. The most used app that I had created was used by maybe 50 people at the same time, and it was mostly manipulating spreadsheet-like data, so querying the database directly was fast enou

I have a bit of a tangent question for more experienced back-end developers: where do you fit Redis (or other caching mechanisms) in the traditional MVC model? I haven't had a use-case for Redis yet, but I'd like to know how shoul

Isn't fiddler intended to be used to capture requests sent from already running apps and not to make standalone requests to APIs? Additionally it is not multi-platform as far as I know, you can only run it on Windows machines.

I use Postman daily and I have never created an account. I think it only nags you when you start the app for the first time. I just import/export my collections to the git repo of the API I am working at. Sure, the whole cloud login, t

I haven't personally written any books, but I have seen this blog article [1] written by Bob Nystrom. He talks about creating his book (about writing an interpreter) in general, but there is a part dedicated to explaining how he illust

Hey! It would be nice if the code snippets had better contrast and matched the white color theme of the website. I have to squint really hard to make out the code, which makes it really hard to consume the articles.

It depends on how you work, I have a lot of small projects which come and go, so setting up the paths every time I start or finish something would be inefficient. Although I might adopt it for different weird system configuration directorie

If only there was a similar ban on alcohol which was supposed to help, but ended up making the situation worse. Maybe it even overlapped with a financial crisis.
