I perceive staying competitive as being paid fairly for your work (within some reasonable margin). If you are becoming less and less useful to the company/industry, but your salary is getting higher over the years, your risk of being l

Maybe not the answer you are looking for, but for small and not that critical workloads, I've so far been happy with docker swarm workloads on cheap cloud/VPS.

It is called depth from motion. I think this is what the Google guys used to create the 3D buildings view back then.

I can only second that. People would say that Python is a lot slower than Rust and I would agree, but the slowest software I've seen in my life is the one that never gets released ;)

Excluding the crappy screen resolution, I am still happy running KDE on my x240 (i5, 8GB RAM) :).

I agree that public transportation leaves a lot to be desired, however roads in Sofia are actually not that bad. The bigger problem is traffic congestion. It makes it impractical to commute to the other side of the city for work (e.g. ~1hr

Just out of curiosity, when you say actual execution do you mean the execution done by EU bodies or the execution of the government(s) of Bulgaria?

Thanks for your through reply. My question was more in line with enterprise PR/sales. More precisely, to what extent does such a PR activity drive sales for NSO. In my early engineering career I did enterprise pre-sales for two differe

What you are saying makes a lot of sense. Then does it mean that the NSO capabilities are not quite as "advertised"?

Can't be ruled out, but I would first look at (improper) pesticide use and monoculture. At least this is the general observation in my beekeeping community. We noticed a gradual decline in colonies since the local farmers started growi

Isn't this a good time for a new UI framework (e.g. Flutter) to conquer grounds. Especially if it would be possible to automatically translate large parts of the Qt UI to Flutter?

Had the same issue with swarm and iptables/ufw. The solution I found was to replace nginx with traefik and never expose service ports out of the swarm. All HTTP/TCP/UDP termination is done by Traefik (itself running in Swarm

Not my experience with commodity SD card, power supply and stock settings of Raspbian. They must be using some "secret sauce" to make them run 6 years without outages. I would suspect some industrial grade SD card (SLC or at least

This data is very interesting. I wonder whether it will bounce below the historical average after the peak (i.e. people dying 3-6 months earlier due to the pandemic).

A really interesting question indeed. While Docker containers are a blessing from many perspectives, their orchestration is far from easy (yes k8s I am looking at you). Another consideration of a CTO, when choosing buy vs build, would be th

Thanks for the reference. Reading the wikipedia article on the topic, I get the impression that side effects that develop slowly (e.g. more than 3 months post vaccination as in this case) will either not be detected at all or it will be alm

Is there any actual evidence that the flu vaccines indeed work? Given that 'flu' is actually a very broad term for a disease that can be caused by =many different viruses that also mutate each year.

I think the general direction here is that if unethical behavior leads to positive stimuli and there aren't some negative stimuli as a counterweight you simply end up with general demoralization of society and even more unethical behav

While I am not in any way approving such unethical behavior, I think he probably meant that you just can't expect this from most of the CEOs. At least the market does not incentivize such behavior in the short term (I means before you
