I've always used Bitbucket as it allows private repositories, so Github was never something I wanted to use. But it is one of the most important websites in the world for tech people and should be run better than this, especially being

9 our of 10 online businesses will simply ban English users altogether. Which will be good for England as it will allow it to develop local competition without global multinationals' boot on their necks.

It means that you go to foo.com and enter your e-mail to sign up. But foo.com routes that request and to bank.com, hoping you have an account there. bank.com sends you verification email, which you expect from foo.com as part of the sign-up

Github - it was a free hosting for your code which served also as your backup, as back then there were not many VCS hosting services and certainly none, or very few, that were free. Github changed how we approach VCS and code on a world sca

None. Just use SMTP. Any email provider can handle thousands of emails without issues. Only if you need to send 60k newsletters at once are these emailing services useful.

I watched an interview with him not long ago. Essentially he said the company where he works now is pure research and no business. I think he said there are three people in it altogether.

Yes, this road is very lonely. Always has been. Entrepreneurship is going against the grain, with no help or support. Until one day you make it and then everyone tells you how easy you have it. Is it no different than when European settlers

ML(not AI), will be able to automate a lot of simple repetitive tasks with predictable outcome. That will indeed eliminate some stupid-simple jobs that require little to no thinking and are mostly just types of jobs that just have to be don

i would guess that because of how *** * floats are in binary computers, you have something like -0.0000000000000000000000000000000000001 and when you round it you end up with -0.0. Same goes for positive value, you're just not used to

I was looking into it as well but I have not found any payment gateway that would accept crypto, convert it into fiat and send it to me as payment as a single step process. I found some that could do it in multiple steps, which makes no fin

After Opera killed its own engine, the last one to compete with Gecko and KHTML/Chromium, and then everyone moving to Chrome-based design, we truly need more competition and less monopolisation in this field. Especially when it comes f

Not surprising. Windows 11 is a huge failure. Add with that blatant spyware and telemetry, Microsoft will be bleeding Windows users left and right once the Windows 10 support ends. I am a Windows users but even I won't be moving to Win

Coding has nothing to do with degrees. It's actually a huge waste of time. Unless you are studying to be a doctor or a lawyer, school is waste of time and money and has huge opportunity costs. So definitely do not even think about mast

That is true. Basic content encoding works very well with json but that still means there is the compression step, which would not be necessary with CBOR as it is already a binary payload. It would allow faster response and delivery times n

I wish browsers would support CBOR natively so I could just return CBOR instead of JSON(++speed --size ==win) and not have to be concerned with decoding it or not being able to debug requests in dev console.

I think the keyword is runtime - there must be some higher logic being run above your own code that manages these things. Which is what Go is doing and why "hello world" cannot produce a binary that has few bytes in size. If other
