Another option is a community hosted Mattermost (it's like Discord/Slack/IRC). It's pretty easy to run, all the chat are in PostgreSQL so it's "easy" to produce archive logs (like IRC has). Or do any other

Ages ago, I found a player on here who was looking to move to where my team was (Seattle). They had a good "vibe" from their I want to get hired post. Got them their first gig in the tech space. Now with me at another tech play. T

Well, the database might be large. Millions of domain names, each with like a dozen (or more) records. (maybe 1k * 30 million domains). But mostly it's about how the DNS changes, a lot. Sites move, geo records, etc. Getting those chang

I don't see any mention of WinAmp yet. That app really whipped the llamas ass when it came to styling. And was super easy to create custom skins. I'm all-on-board with look like the OS/platform but also, here's and examp

Google did this with Meet. Bundled, over-ride zoom invite with Meet and other stuff that seems very similar to these MS moves. Wonder how/why they don't get similar treatment.

I use Teams from Chrome&Firefox on Linux without a teams account. I've attended 100s of US State government agency meetings this way, for many years.

It's not "bad" it's just a factor to consider when planning market entry, like a start-up trying to get these dealers on their platform.

You can use the /usr/bin/env python shebang line to work across python location I keep all my scripts in ~/git/$Project and symlink them into ~/bin and I've added ~/bin to the end of my path.

These are great points, if you already have Ruby in your stack. For me, when Bash ain't enough I upgrade to the Project language (PHP, Python, JS, etc). For compiled project I reach for LSB language (Perl, Python) before introducing a

Gotta use the inspector and find the too-wide element. That or a CSS rule for overflow is causing it.

Four is pretty good. Same count as it is (in English). I think it's neat.

I've been wanting something like that, like a wrapper that hosts three or four engine, so I can use normal for every-day, upscale to FF for some or Chrome for others - all in one UI.

For power users. General users want this point and click thing, Windows/Mac got them used to it. It's sorta functional on mobile OS too. Its not like the CLI would (ever) disappear.

But small numbers are a signal to the visitors they are early. Some segment likes that. I think when you are new, embrace the newness.

I had similar issues with OVH. Got an annual contract, didn't like their service, went to cancel but it had already renewed into second year and I had to cancel 30 days before that. So I missed my small window. Now stuck with another y

This place https://www.franklumber.com/ has been selling only doors for 50+ years. One can model their business around market rules. It just might not be as huge as you want.

Are there loads of driver support for those USB/GPIO things? I've only done that on PI and the Python libs made it super easy. Now it's one more thing to solve research rather built-in.

What you say is true and IME the driving feature of GH is discoverability. Project there gets Stars (cause they have an account already, cause inertia). They show up for lots of Google search, etc.

Some firms are very profitable and still pay many workers very low, eg: Amazon and Walmart. They have money to pay more but they just don't.

I'd say take a startup. Those early companies don't have a lot of staff so you can try lots of things, wear lots of hats. Good experience. Take cash, don't get played by options/equity. When you find the hat you like mov
