I loved the hell out of splunk until they priced themselves out of the stratosphere. I know a splunk employee (splunker?); hopefully she somehow gets rich(er) as part of this deal.

I played around with Construct2 a lot once upon a time, but never followed them to 3 because the product got a bit too expensive for me has a hobbyist. How does this compare to that, besides the obviously nicer cost?

I'd be happy enough if they blended the SE and the mini and updated it every couple years. That's a fine phone for somebody who wants to be inside apple's ecosystem without needing to be bleeding-edge high-price.

In 2 weeks, I'm supposed to fly to Japan for an anniversary/vacation, but unfortunately cancelled because I got sick. Would we have tried this? Probably not. TBH I'm not sure that clothing is the biggest culprit for our lug

It's it honest or ethical to say that the money was given to "homeless" people if only a small fraction qualified? It's like saying that I studied exercise in "men" but then only accepted people aged 25-29 who

I could maybe enjoy these games on an iPad. But my thumbs are too big and my eyes are too bad for playing AAA games on a phone-sized screen.

Wow there's a name that I have not heard in 30+ years! Once upon a time I used the Aztec cross-compiler in DOS to generate 68k code for some embedded point-of-sale hardware.

VB was a godsend for me. Despite being a very capable DOS and embedded/RTOS developer, the learning curve for the ugly tools and API's for Win3.1 development was more than I wanted to handle. It was magical how easy it was to bui

Back in the WinForms era of .Net, I got the impression that anything you could write in VB you could write in nearly-identical-line-for-line C# (minus the language syntax differences). Once it became just a subset of C# with different synta

Once upon a time I owned a little black box that would simulate enough of a phone system that you could plug two computers' modems into it and computer A would get a dial tone and computer B would get a ring. It was great for developin

Having worked in IoT since before it was called that, I was very happy to see physical SIMs get retired because that's one less potential point of failure. It's not fun to have a card or socket fail on a device that is somewhere o

I worked in the parking biz for a decade. It's an industry that attracts a lot of scumminess because a lot of money passes through it and controls are lax. We had more than one customer unhappy with our system because it generated tig
