In my American experience, flights these days are almost always completely full, and almost every passenger is bringing both an under-seat and overhead-bin carry-on item. The last 10% or so of boarders are often left with no overhead stora

KQL is excellent, I miss it whenever I write SQL.

I'd need to see some numbers to believe that this is true for "most Americans." Certainly it's not a problem for most of America if we're talking about geographic area. But population is obviously not distributed un

They do? Every ORM I've used supports explicit transactions and rollbacks. EF, NHibernate, GORM, SQLAlchemy. What major ORMs deny you this functionality?

In America its pronunciation is closer to "Mastadon." The second syllable sounds like "tuh." You see the same thing with other words that have "o"s that function similarly. You'll hear Americans turning &q

Unfortunately I don't have a very helpful answer - it's free to me. I said VPS as a simplification, but the actual situation is some co-colocated hardware a friend of mine runs. He gives me a virtual slice of it because he has exc

I'm running Jitsi in Docker on a VPS. I use it for voice + video chat while playing online games with friends. For this use case, I had to do almost no tweaking from defaults, so I have not become a Jitsi expert at all. It's been

It's possible to think it's not ok but also so vanishingly unlikely to happen that it's not a useful comparison point for quality of life in Europe vs America. For me, "never get sick or have any kids or anything" i

A ton of common pwsh commands have built-in short aliases, sometimes even two-letter ones. They're intended for interactive use, with the verbose forms expected in scripts. New-Item -> ni Set-Location -> sl Get-ChildItem

"Human right" may be a bit extreme, but what about the myriad other ways we "take advantage of [our] economic position to make use of other people's bodies"? Am I a sociopath if I get a massage? A manicure? Hire mov

I have the same question! I understand parent's criticisms of context objections and logging boilerplate, but I'm not following the "fight against structured logging." What are the alternatives? No logging? Unstructured

I'd still call ars one of the good ones in terms of ads, since they let you subscribe to get rid of them. And if that's of no interest, well, the site works very well with ad blockers.
