If I recall correctly from older posts (I played Fortnite for a while), they're using AWS.

It's not recent, Vine has been around for years. While it's a good program, there are millions of items, unlikely to have them all covered by Vine users. They would have to extend the program greatly for this to be an effective co

This is one of the ways "dead" people can keep voting over and over long after they've passed away.

On one of my laptops I downloaded a hosts file with a comprehensive list of advertising hostnames. This was to be able to browse with Edge back when it didn't have extensions and certain ads made it freeze. It was a bit of a pain becau

I've recently made a little project with scrapy (for crawling) and BeautifulSoup (for parsing html) and it works out great. One more thing to add to the above list are pipelines, they make downloading files quite easy.

Curious. Are there no stores because they're not allowed or because they don't want to be there? I would find it very hard not to have a supermarket or a corner shop nearby for when I run out of this or that and it isn't time

It's one of the reasons why I was using Groove. I'm going to keep the app to be able to play these songs.

Spain is divided by autonomias (comunidades autonomas). You can vote wherever you're registered to vote, nowhere else. I can't vote on issues in Extremadura or Valencia because I'm not registered in there. I understand this a

What about the Scottish Referendum then?

I did cut my salary by 40% voluntarily. I now work part-time (3 days per week, plus the rare emergency). Much better, as I can still pay the bills and got a 4 day weekend to do whatever I please with. I'm also a lot more productive as

Each company has its own guidelines. A junior could be for example someone who focuses too much in the particular case of a problem rather than looking at the big picture. In interviews, for example, if they present you with a problem to so

The ranges are wide to give room for salary negotiations at the beginning of employment, but also to allow for salary raises for people who are not yet considered to be at a higher level. E.g. you could be a junior developer, but a very goo

So I suppose is it a one time thing only? A shame, it was quite fun to solve!

They are nice to have and welcome, but not mandatory. I'm actually the only one in my group of friends who has ever enjoyed these kind of things. That's why I say we are very lucky. Once you step out of the tech bubble you see tha

So if you have 50 employees that's $5,000 per month, which could be used to pay another salary. Or you could pay your employees that extra $100 directly so they use it whichever way they want. Employee discounts in retail are usually w

When I read things like this, I like to take a moment to realise how fortunate we are to work in a sector where something like freebies is almost considered to be a sacred right. Is there any other profession or sector where they get the sa

I went through some kind of burnout as well last year (more related to personal stuff than work itself) and decided to take a long vacation. I didn't want to go back to the usual schedule and risk having the same issue again in a year

Old Server versions of Windows were also affected. Could be what a lot of these service companies were running on.

I tend to agree. Call me paranoid, but I can't help to see this type of questions (not this one in particular and not implying anything, I mean in general) as a bit of social engineering. Even when it is a genuinely innocent question,

If you marry yourself to a single framework you remove a lot of degrees of freedom from PHP (which might be good or bad depending on the case) and introduce a set of rules that might or might not all be good for you. It might save you time,

Well, this specific one is not about statistics and hard data, but about personal experiences and feelings. Perhaps larger numbers would simply add points that are too specific to include in a generalisation. Or perhaps it takes too much ti

Do your websites show in the same rank in all three search engines? Do Bing and Yahoo need some specific SEO guidelines to be followed, perhaps? As usually SEO is mostly focused toward Google, perhaps they don't follow the same princip

A side effect from this is that their Amazon Basics brand becomes more valuable, as the products are actually decent and from someone you trust. Perhaps this was the plan all along...

It's a good practice to learn the inner works before adding layers that may simplify (but obscure) functionality.

There is a lot that can be extrapolated from your shopping history, more than you think (e.g. if you've got a new house, a baby, if you have health problems, if you're a geek, if you like drinking or not...). And it's not jus
