depending on your original account, if it has a minimum balance to avoid fees you might want to leave the minimum balance in there and transfer the rest first. Then close the account officially and get a check for the remainder. the reason

Question : so what do you do besides host it yourself? Do you set up a backup on a different cloud service so that at least you can failover without too much downtime? you then have to at least pay for the some of the resources even if ther

thanks for telling me about 'git amend'. I frequently screw up and fail to add the files I want or as soon as I commit I remember I needed to change something else. So my projects all have strings of commits that are a few seconds

I'm a casual GitHub user, and for me the fork button enabled me to grab a copy of some other repo, make changes , commit to my github repo without perturbing the main project and still keeping an online history at github. Its a step ab

just an anecdote about UTC vs GPS time. GPS time doesn't have leap seconds. So my team was testing a system with some devices, one of which was a GPS and the main system had UTC from NTP. We had a big display that showed all our data i

I think a lot has to do with folks in the US being more OCD about cleaning their food. For example, most people in the US would never eat cheese that was crawling with visible mold and bacteria but the French prefer it that way (so I was t

it's funny how folks from different countries throw shade on the ones that treat their eggs differently, as if that is an indication of which country is better. Every few months a thread on Reddit gets this going. Nice to see an articl

i would guess that if the employee handbook calls for two weeks notice of resigning, there would be some sort of case for getting paid if they were walked out right away. I'm probably wrong though.

In Github terms of service, if you make a repo public, others are free to view and fork it, apparently even if you place a commercial license on it, or no license. The lawyers will have to figure out if that means copy, use or whatever. ht

I can imagine that lawyers in general would prefer to use a contract template that has withstood the test of time (and was held up in court) rather than try to write one up from scratch. I'm not talking about your case though.

I'm not saying the ER prices are reasonable, but an ER has to keep a lot of expensive staff and equipment sitting around until they are needed. OK, some ER's they are sitting around. But there is a price to have all that service r
