Serverless tooling is coming fast. 1. Biggest issue with serverless is debugging when you can't make a local environment and can't install anything like a conventional debugger in the serverless environment. I know of at least one

I think all coffee grounds make decent fertiliser too, as well as decent compost, even without mushroom.

Yes I've wondered the same. 1970s solid-state electronics full of gold, metals lying around everywhere, rare earth metals in old cellphones, recylcable glass and plastics... Wanna co-found a startup that buys old landfills?

Paint Shop Pro was the best. I was not as honest as the author of this article. I didn't buy Paint Shop Pro and I didn't write to its creator. I got a free trial on a cover-disk of some PC magazine and managed to extend the trial

Oh the feels. I had a ZX Spectrum at home so that made me one of the 'techie' kids in my school who could use the class BBC better than the teachers. It was my second experience with BASIC, and BBC BASIC was a little different to

Parrots and some other birds (like corvids) are ludicrously intelligent for their size and brain size. They can solve puzzles, use tools, copy speech and do all sorts of things that we usually associate with big-brained higher mammals. This

Three games' approaches to death come to mind immediately: First, Braid, where your character can die in the usual way for a 2D platformer, killed by monsters or falling in holes. But the game lets you manipulate time, so the answer to

Ah, the heady days of the first Dot Com bubble. I remember it well. This was a period when one of the biggest drags on the development of e-commerce and monatizing Internet businesses was the absence of a good micro-payment solution. PayPal
