That comment has a serious nationalistic bias so take it with a grain of salt. Pro-tip when learning about Eastern Europe or the Balkans - there are a lot of conflicting versions of historiography. Every nation, regime or even political fac

Most of the comments are about the startup RAM use and distributable size, which is a criticism shared with Electron. The demo app is not attempting to address these particular weaknesses. The point of the article is there are some applicat

Looks like the Syrian Army was caught with its pants down, the vehicles staying still in the open. They didn't expect the Turks at all. And they were right next to the border. It is possible to minimise such damage by moving often and

Yes, this is what I meant. I'm don't know it is about manliness, but is definitely to show superiors and other stakeholders that you have things under control. This is very important in an extreme top-down organization of society

So I got a 2019 Air just before the COVID-19 emergency in my area. I was looking for a small and light machine to carry around, with a little bit of coding and browsing mostly. I would have probably picked the most basic retina model with t

I'm a beginner Kubernetes user and kubectl is pretty user friendly in my opinion, but people like GUIs a lot, especially when you want to explore a cluster you haven't created yourself (much easier than going through a ton of yaml

Most likely Stalin hoped that Denmark would become neutral in any future division of Europe (Finnish and Austrian Neutrality is highly useful for the USSR). I think this is consistent with the withdrawal of Red Army troops from places like

I was talking with a Data Scientist friend abiut what I love so much about Clojure and it was largely about the REPL. To him it sounded like nothing special - trying expressions in a prompt is hardly new or original and he does all the tim

The advice the community usually gives is just use hashmaps. You can easily refactor when you need that more difficult functionality, because the language strongly disincentives mutable state, which is what usually causes issues.

Looks like MS fell for an individual troll. I think the real story is how companies, as risk averse as they are respond to such cases - I would probably weight the risks and do as MS in such cases.
