I always throw Nginx in front of Node so I can route statics to the filesystem (Don't serve js or CSS through NodeJS), plus it means I can run new NodeJS services and adjust the routing in Nginx to point to them. Also Fail2Ban reads Ng

4h seems to be an accepted limit of any focussed creative activity. After that the quality of your output will start to decline until you're just giving yourself bugs to fix tomorrow. Obviously if you're doing routine work you&#x2

If running in Debug mode means it's running < 60fps I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole. Native stuff doesn't do that and React Native/Nativescript don't do that either!

Nativescript is more powerful than React Native because it gives you direct access to the JAVA/Objective C libraries if you need it. I reviewed Flutter but got put off by the levels of abstraction.

The GDPR isn't a bunch of rules, it's a process. It's no different to your health and safety process. You define your process, what data you have and where it is and any risks. Personally, with massive PII dumps getting leake

I've not found anything in JavaScript that replaces Django in terms of ecosystem and reliability. There's lots of attempts but Django and Rest Framework nail building out APIs. Java executes faster than Node but is more verbose. C

You absolutely wouldn't want user data stored in app bundles. You can back up all user data by backing up /Users/ or /home/ on Linux. As an application developer, I want to be able to drop a new bundle over the old

Yes... is it possible the other two are niche because we can't do them with the current infrastructure? Computers used to be niche, not everyone had one. That's not how technological progression is made though.

Huw Edwards is Welsh, from a Welsh speaking family. English is his second language, so I wouldn't put too much stock in his accent being indicative of clipped RP.

Anecdata: I'm in the UK and have worked with someone from NZ, it worked really well. He was a designer and tester so when we came in the morning, he'd tested everything and left new designs to be built up, then handed over to him

The BBC is a bit of a laughing stock at the moment because of their wall-to-wall coverage of right wing Brexit types. Unsurprisingly because many of the "journalists" have connections to the Conservative party. They also suffer fr
