I took a credit once, for buying a car, and will never do it again. Although I never had problems with paying the money back, I was paying a lot more money back to the bank, so when I finished paying the credit off, the car was worth half o

Why isn't it practical? Maybe not in the cloud, but there are some hosting companies that offer quite powerful machines in the same ballpark. Hetzner, a German hosting company, have some really good root servers, for about 120€/mo

Warning: I have no idea about systems programming. I understand that the amount of lines of driver code comes from the variety of devices. But still, it looks completely unbalanced, when compared to the kernel code itself. So I have some qu

This little tutorial is so perfectly written. It makes no assumptions about what you know besides basic computer science and guides you through getting going with LLVM. I love it, makes it look so simple.

From personal experience I observe that metal has become more present in society than it was some years back. One of the personal experiences is that only about 10 years ago, it was difficult to find metal music online, even on mainstream s

Heck, I do most of my buying on Amazon and am a technical person, and still find myself struggling to get it right.

I'm so happy to see Notes getting attention and new features. Since the update to support attachments and basic text formatting, it has become my digital notebook of choice. I basically use it for everything, from todo and shopping lis

The major problem is that you can't control the behavior of a podcast client. Some of them will cache you media files "forever", unless you explicitly change the guid. But changing the guid has negative effects on some client

Sorry for the shameless plug: A friend and I have launched a podcast publishing platform, batteries included, called Podigee ( https://www.podigee.com ). The backend runs on Rails + PostgreSQL, the frontend is a mix of Rails and A

Well, it all starts with JS not having the best stacktraces (although they have gotten a lot better in the last years).

It's great to see such an "exotic" programming language like Clojure getting some serious traction. And by exotic I mean a language that stands out from the imperative or object-oriented crowd. I like how Clojure challenges e

Are you happy with it? I like the idea of getting rid of the TV that I do not use, but I am quite happy with the performance and support that Swisscom offers.

Exactly my thoughts. This is madness.

In Switzerland, 1Gbs down/up optic fiber costs 150 CHF, roughly $150 USD. It comes with TV (no separate Internet only option). It's a lot of money, but given the median income still very affordable.

It's not pricey, people are just not used to pay for email. I don't remember the exact numbers, but it's more or less the same as Google with a custom domain. BTW, Fastmail is amazing, been using it for a while now and super

Why are 2 comments putting Germany/Switzerland? This tunnel is entirely Swiss and has nothing to do with Germany. Also, comparing salaries of those countries is just ridiculous, as Swiss salaries can be 2-3x higher on average than the

That's interesting. From what I experienced, in some of the European countries mechanics earn pretty darn good money, have pretty acceptable working conditions and are respected in general.
