I think this is a common problem on Nvidia. Firefox used to crash for me all the time coming out of hibernate. You can try Nvidia's solution.[1] [1]: https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/455.38&#x2

After hearing about CGI I became a bit obsessed with its simplicity and started writing my blog[1] as a CGI app, eventually incorporating a FastCGI library later. Performance-wise I don't know how it would compare to other options, but

I‘ve been using commento on my own sites for a bit over a year now. I was initially pleased but development seems to have halted and many pull requests fixing basic features have gone ignored. I would try something else today.

I think your link is slightly misrepresenting the situation as it surveyed parents with kids <3 and <6. In terms of early parental leave (ie. the time covered by Elterngeld), I would think the percentage of men taking time is much hig

Germany also has quite generous parental leave. 14 months to split between parents as they see fit. But no single parent can take more than 12 and it's only 65%. 12 of the 14 months can be doubled as well, up to 24 months, at half the

At least we were able to get refunds when that happened.

I would argue Proton is a bit more than 'only' Wine and that it also includes projects like DXVK/D9VK. These make many, many more games playable at decent performance than would be possible with Wine's own solution.

Wow this is great, thank you for the tip! My site uses SQLite3 for storage so this is perfect. I'm continually amazed at how featureful SQLite is.

I've been hosting my own website on an ASUS Tinkerboard for years without issue. Granted it doesn't get many visitors, so not a lot of stress. Sitting behind a free CloudFlare account mitigates a lot of bandwidth usage too.

Back then most Canadian cell providers used to (maybe still do) forward SMS from emails sent to a special address that was basically just <phone number>@telus/bell/whatever.ca. They would do the opposite to, as SMS replies w

Wow lots of interesting projects in this thread. I'm currently working on a blogging engine I call bittyblog https://github.com/cluoma/bittyblog I'm not a professional coder so it's mostly a toy project

The book linked at the top of the article is a great read[1]. Very easy to follow along if you want to do a similar thing yourself. [1] http://neuralnetworksanddeeplearning.com/

I use SQLite as a backend for my website and absolutely love it. Not having to setup a full dbms just for a small blog is a dream, and backups are as easy as copying a file.

I use commento[1] on my site, running on my own server so no third party has access. I do not get many comments though so I don't know how it handles higher load. [1] https://gitlab.com/commento/commento

Most Canadians would probably be familiar your name from Stuart McLean's popular stories about Dave and Morley on the radio show The Vinyl Cafe. So it's not all bad.

I feel like this problem isn't specific to diamonds. The article mentions that big brand names (Tiffany etc.) are relatively unaffected and that is a pattern seen in many industries. Skewed wealth distribution is creating demand for &#

Interesting. I moved to Germany several years ago and just assumed that the Kevins were because of an interest in Anglo names. I didn't know they had a stigma attached to them. I'm trying to think of something equivalent from Cana

The ex-CEO at my wife's previous company did this. Signed a multi-year lease for the company on a building she owned a few months before leaving the company. A real dick move for sure. They were growing at the time and being constraine

This mirrors my experience learning German, in Germany, pretty much exactly. I falsely assumed I would just somehow pickup German by being exposed to it every day but the brain is amazing at filtering things out. I'm attending German l

The article mentions that in the study there was little difference in the self-reported sleep times of night-owls and morning folk. So probably not.

Many games on Steam are DRM free already. Just because it's served on Steam doesn't mean it automatically has DRM.

If anybody else is interested in doing something similar, I highly recommend Michael Nielsen's online book: Neural Networks and Deep Learning[1]. He gives really good explanations and some code examples. I ended up writing the most bas

Something I discovered recently is that learning a second language is hard and takes a lot of work. I moved to Germany 3 years ago thinking I would just kind of pick it up as I go. Well, that didn't really happen. So now I am spending

And the huge variety of presentation tools such as ggplot2, Rmarkdown, and Shiny still makes R a very attractive choice. Tight integration with Rcpp also makes it very easy to speed up calculations when performance becomes an issue.
