PHP is not recommended... wait, what? I can somehow understand the lowercase version / command, as in - we're phasing it out. Get it somewhere else. But giving the thumbs down to one of the most popular web dev languages out there

Not sure how it works in the US but in the EU you don't have to register anything. Just keep tabs of what VAT you collected for what country, and then pay accordingly afterwards. No licenses needed.

The Pomodoro method jumps to mind. But I’m with you - if the work at hand isn’t stimulating, any break will take a long while to “recover” from.

Half of this makes no sense to me whatsoever, but it's fascinating nonetheless! Seems like a huge challenge. And if anyone would care to explain to me what "capacity posture" means in the following sentence: "Without hav

If I’m not mistaken, paying for links is still very much against Google’s policies. Whatever weight that should carry... in my opinion you should always try to be as independent from Google as possible. It’s such a huge liability.

These things always happen in the weekend don't they? When I managed a large network of servers, it seems that all the outages happened during parties and/or the weekend.

This “fluid” term always throws me off :) Then I’m reminded of Fluid Dynamics from my Vfx days. Playing around with 3d fire and smoke never gets old!

Not quite true :) I’ve played a lot with my 2 youngest daughters and the AI adapts to the fastest player. So if you hang behind the “worst” player, it will become very easy. Subsequently, if you race full-pull the other person will be in a

I think most of it is really down to the quality of the answers you've given combined with the vast amount of users on SO. I'm user 537XXXX with an account that can't be more than 8 years old but I did spend a solid 6 months

Sheer evil? It wasn’t personal or aimed at one specific group of people. It’s just the cost of doing business. Like other siblings said: that’s happening today all over the world. From Amazon warehouse workers to miners.

Please note that this is a quote from a fantasy world that is a disc, that rests on the back of 4 elephants, that stand on the back of a turtle that's swimming through space. Take the specifics with a grain of salt ;-)

I will never waste an opportunity to share my favorite quote from my favorite fantasy series, the Discworld: “The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. He e

So true! Your background mirrors mine almost to the letter. My personal bar was never having to think about any purchase below €50. Mind you, do purchases like that all day and you’ll be poor pretty quickly ;-) But just knowing that you don

And what happens if the SSDs break? You lose your plot? Has to be right - since it's proof of space? But what then is the use of burning through SSDs so fast?

Will this work with the other plans as well? I was looking into Shopify the other day, would like to accept non-credit card payments as well (so need a higher plan) but I love the minimal design of your theme.

An IRS guy found the Silk Road guy? Do you have a source? I remember reading that DPR got caught after some faked murder for hire plot by a (what later turned out) corrupt FBI agent after leaking the Silk Road IP of his Icelandic servers, w
