Yes, it is getting crazy. December should be very interesting. A lot of drivers are leaving the game entirely because of the new requirements, and so brokers and carriers are getting desperate.

Because it is cheaper to swap components in a single design than to have multiple designs. Usually manufacturers do both - with different models targeting different target markets, then swap out parts in each model to appeal to different pr

Then again, T-SQL is a developer's nightmare. Especially when compared to PostgreSQL's version of SQL scripting. And when you add on all the supported languages it makes MSSQL quite painful from a SQL developer standpoint.

Business Insider has annoying anti-adblocker popups. Is there some way to block websites that do this? I tried living without adblocker for a while, but I started getting some very not safe for work ads from dhgate all over the place. Just

I was never a big fan of Access, it was no so great compared to Delphi, Paradox and even systems like DBase, Clipper, etc. There is a clone of Delphi around, based on Free Pascal called Lazarus. But honestly this whole thing has moved to th

You should try being liberal in a red state. I've had people try to run me off of the road for an Obama sticker before. It's not social isolation here, it's straight up aggression.

Perhaps clarification is needed. The glory days of RDAD (rapid database application development). While there is probably something that approaches the simplicity and speed of Delphi's glory days, I haven't found it. I can think o

Honestly this whole thing comes down to what kinds of things can be considered a minority. Calling a man "White cis male" ignores the fact that he might be autistic, ADHD or any number of other things. I have an autoimmune conditi

You've got a lot of competition. Transflo is the 800 pound gorilla in this space. But there are quite a few small providers working very hard to get into it. And integration is the challenge. Integration into sometimes archaic dispatch

The term "creep" is thrown around way too casually. You don't like that guy? Why? No reason, he's just a creep. Sure, some guys need to be called names because they are not nice people. But calling a guy a creep is just

Pascal was one of my favorite languages (in the form of Object Pascal). I made a living from it for decades. But Borland and a long succession of companies killed it through mismanagement. It does still exist in the form of freepascal and l

This points out the subjective failures of science, IMO. Just because there's no evidence for something doesn't mean it won't make you happy. Obviously if there are health issues it should be addressed, but this seems to be m

Companies like Digital Ocean, Linode, Vultr, Scaleway cater to small developers. The costs are much lower, although the flexibility and features aren't the same as AWS. If you need the features of AWS then definitely take a look at the

Digital Ocean and Linode are good services. Scaleway started with ARM servers but now offers x86-based servers at a very low price point. Unlimited bandwidth too. I've also used vultr.com. As @eulid55 says, lowendbox.com is a good reso

I made an app that notifies family when a QR code is scanned. It also provides information for ems providers and allows for several levels of interaction between the two. It works well for the few people that use it. https://emsi

Until there is an open source implementation of this, I don't see it being all that usable. And no, I don't mean an open source implementation of an API call, I mean the core algorithm.

I lived without Plex for a very long time, but could not find a good media player now that the WDTV is no longer in production. Plex is ubiquitous. Smart TVs have a Plex app, nearly every media player has the ability to load a Plex app. And

Clickbait-y or not, it sums up the feelings of a lot of developers. I don't understand it myself, but it seems a lot of developers want to reinvent the database to create something "better" or just find some way to never have
