That is great, now with some relatively simple infrastructure you will won't have to get ripped off ever again.

Because, international companies are going to avoid operating in Europe unless the profit outweighs the burden of stupid laws like this. The start up I work for would not consider expansion in Europe before the USA.

It is usually a sign that designers are somewhat unfamiliar with the people that use their work or designers who have not learnt anything since the 99s.

We have all our instances in a VPC so nothing is available without a VPN. (Openvpn, on phone, laptop, built into the wifi router for everyone else). Once any service for our firm onlt is set up it is effectively private it we manage our key

My fork of micropython is rocking. I have 100% reliable wifi, ESP timers, ESP tasks and mutexes. https://github.com/mianos/micropython I agree, get a nodeMCU board load micropython on connect to the REPL to start exper

saltstack is a bit harder to get started but it is, IMHO, a much larger product. I am implying saltstack should be worth more. That said, ansible may prove to become more popular and grow to be bigger than saltstack.

Same here, only I started some time earlier and have implemented the central trading system side of all these instruments. I agree, the basic contracts and simple combinations are the simplest part.

Plus, running micropython this board rocks. Imagine a repl on the USB serial interface. My branch is rock solid posting millions of messages from python to a webserver.

Surely gathering performance metrics and analysing them is the method of avoiding the backfire? Surveying downstream faculties and see how they like the results is another way to measure and move forward from a system of cronies with a low

The paranoia is commonly considered as a result of wider media coverage. Every single national and, often, international media covers most child abductions. This widening of coverage gives the, incorrect, impression that child abductions ar

I can perfectly understand why changes would not be wanted. It's no big deal at all. That's said. The project vastly underestimates the impact the ESP8266 has had and will have. IMHO that chip and those that follow in its footst

I put pulls in but it seems they don't want to accept stuff that does not work like the rest of the platforms supported. Perfectly reasonable I think but the fact that there is not a way to set the wifi mode in micropython is a bit sla

Owl is more 'pretty much normal python runtime ported to an ARM MCU'. micropython is a written from scratch implementation for MCUs. Maybe I am replying to the wrong thread here. What could be wrong? There are probably a lot of th

Also, add total hot desking to this for another bump down the productivity scale. Then, to make things worse, they usually oversubscribe the people to desks because at any one time quite a few people would be in meetings or not in the offic

Not to harp on about it, but, if you use python, an ORM, like sqlalchemy can make documenting a schema much more manageable. Although it is saying the same thing, it is mainly because the relationships and derivations are more compact, in-l

Pretty good and much the same sensible architectural choices as many other already successful companies aside from the neo4j choice. Just use a normal db like postgres like everyone else. There are good reasons why the biggest sites in the

Actually you are mistaken with this analogy. One of the most important characteristics of a stock exchange is standard contracts. One Google stock is the same as any other. This is not true of talent. That said, a book of similar talent, if
