I cannot really express how much praise I have for Organic Maps. It has got me out of the mire a couple of times due to the complete offline capability and paper maps being completely wrong. The OSM base layer is better than a lot of native

Worth noting that also from experience that applies to the amount of effort they put into services. Most of the non-core ancillary services are buggy garbage. I'm wondering if we're going to cause an integer overflow on the suppor

Manage isn't in the meetings here because he's abusing the process too and slacking off fixing his outhouse and car.

Oh hell I have spent the last decade working with AWS and I still have no idea what any of the icons are. They are all complete shit. Literally the worst. To be fair I can't remember half the product names other than the core ones eith

I was expecting this since the day it went on the market. Total dead end. The 20-odd years I've been in the .Net ecosystem has been a complete schizophrenic rollercoaster. Glad I'm not dealing with it now. On a positive note I pai

The meetings are good. You're getting paid during them. I managed to customise my bike, plan two international adventures, run a side business and do a year of a degree in pointless meetings in the last 5 years!

Ah yes the defence: "The process failed because you didn't have enough project managers on board" No the process failed because it was fucking shit and everyone went somewhere else. The only good thing heavy processes are f

I haven't had a single ad on any of my Apple stuff other than a free trial of apple news for 3 months which I declined and was never asked again. Where are you seeing that?

Remember back when Nadella took over Microsoft. HN was all over it like the second coming of Jesus. I complained that it doesn't change the organisation and this is just marketing. I was completely right. I remember being downvoted ove

For lack of a better response, as a customer I'd like to tell them to fuck off because both are terrible user experiences. It's like wading through trash.

They should have never done this in the first place and it was 100% intentional to try and trick you into using Edge. Secondly it is morally objectionable to just turn this off in the EEA. Thirdly, they still try and force Edge down your th

That's good. FreeBSD was pretty damn fast already, even on old hardware. But in the cloud it still takes several more seconds more seconds to download the container full of 200 megs of javascript shite from the local docker repo and fi

No we don't. Waterfall is probably the only way of managing large quantities of differently skilled people on a software project and actually getting somewhere though. True agile is for very small teams of highly competent people only,

Picking a small point from your comment I find interesting, the voltages vary considerably across Europe depending on all sorts of factors. In the UK at least it's from around 216 to 253 volts. Mine is sitting at 249 now.

Is there yet any way of having a front end for this which doesn't significantly dent your revenue stream either in staffing, infrastructure or license fees? We land over 2000 requests/second and it's expensive just keeping lo

Ah an idiot. Now lets mathematically multiply idiot by non-determinism and see what happens? A safety critical system is not safe if the outcome of the operator and the system is unpredictable.
