Work had me using the Windows Terminal for the first time ever after a life of developing on Linux. I got immediately hooked on the smart Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V (without needing to use Shift like on Linux!) For those not knowing, Windows Termina

Easy example that I know of: the Mediasoup project is a library written in C++ for streaming video over the internet. It is published as a Node package and offers a JS API. Upon installing, it would just download the appropriate C++ sources

I got another way of looking at it: it's not worth it having appliances that last 20 years, because in that time the tech itself can and does improve a lot. Ready example is my aunt: a very good and expensive Miele washing machine, tha

Same. Is there a project page or anything that explains the context, the reasons, the history behind this? I bet it would be very interesting. The Readme is too technical and misses a writeup on the soul of the project: Section 1, title. Se

A very rough estimate for phone batteries is that they last 1000 recharge cycles. If on average you recharge every day, that's 300+ charges a year, and there you go, an expected life of 3 years. That phone is up for a battery replaceme

That sounds cool; is it possible to just query the ZFS system to know when it has finished synchronizing the slow disk, before bringing it offline again? Do you think that stopping and spinning the disk again, 24 times a day, is not going t
