Why not build one or fix the one they have? An hour of time to solve long term pain sounds like a deal to me.

Same. It's been great. Their spam filter needed a little tweaking from the default settings, but other than that, I've had no problems with the service.

Absolutely this. The amount of RAM that I need in order to run Gitlab is greater than the RAM requirements of all of the projects that I would host in a Gitlab instance combined. Fortunately, gogs is a thing.

I am very interested in this. Making it dead simple to set up an ISP would be a very awesome thing.

"extemporaneously" is probably my new favorite word.

This. Even when I'm sleeping, my internet connection is literally never idle. I wouldn't consider myself to be a heavy internet user - demanding and impatient, maybe, but I'm always clocking in at < 1000GB.

I went down that road and it's certainly not as comfortable as macOS. The biggest thing is that the Linux environment is more or less separated from the actual desktop environment. For instance, if I install Atom on Windows, I can&#x27

Leaders typically aren't good at their job unless they've had experience working "in the trenches". IMO, don't try to rush into leadership.

I'm not above admitting that I was wrong. Thanks for correcting me!

Are you sure your information is up to date? 'Cause I'm pretty sure that's not an issue anymore.

Still parroting that old trope, huh? The quality of an engineer is rarely dictated by their tools. You can be an excellent engineer with a shitty language, or you can be a terrible engineer with a great language. I'll be the first to a

It's only $200/class for grad students. OP is looking for a bachelor's degree.

University of the People ( https://www.uopeople.edu/ ) offers a tuition free CS degree program (both an AS and a BS). Many of the course materials are quite old (in some cases 5-10+ years), but this is really only a problem w

I don't use discord, but Slack, I could keep open all day because I have to do so anyway for work!

Cold applications are probably the worst way to get a job. You need to go to some local meetups and rub elbows with people IRL.

The time to spin up is on the order of seconds. IMO, if your core competency isn't sourcing and buying hardware in order to build render farms, you shouldn't do it. It's just not worth it. AWS brings a lot of value to the tab

You might be better off using EC2 or similar. Do the work to configure everything once and package it as an AMI, then when you need your swarm, spin up as many instance as you need, render whatever needs rendered, and then turn off the inst

FreePBX is not great, but I'm not saying that you should use it. I'm saying that you should use Asterisk, which is what FreePBX is built on top of. Asterisk is really, really solid, and will handle a lot of things for you that you

But does it work well ? If so, you're in the minority. I cannot tell you how many times I've had to kill Chrome because Hangouts caused it to crash, or how many times core functionality in Hangouts straight up didn't work, o

20,000 word document titled "Concise electronics for geeks". Excellent choice of title! Also, this looks like a really awesome primer!

FWIW, I went down this road a few years ago. If I were you, I'd seriously consider rescoping your project. Asterisk is a beast, but it is capable of doing everything you want. If the problem you're trying to solve is that Asterisk
