> With flooring, if you see 13:00 you know you are late I always though that you are late from 13:01. Common these days with Teams meetings etc. It seems most people join during the minute from 13:00 to 13:01.

Exactly what problem does this solve? Creating an invoice is very easy. You can more or less reuse another invoice and replicate it in Word or Excel, just replacing the information with your own and your customers. The added value would com

You say "the same people" but we are all individuals and we don't all share the same views on one topic just because we share it on another. So simply put, I don't agree with this.

The other day someone mentioned how AI crawling bots crawled every link, including edit history links, on their sites. It made me realize they really only can learn from what they can access digitally. While we as humans can go out in the w

I have left X / Twitter now, but while there it gave me good insights, to an extent. If you follow the right people, you get news without intermediate interpretation by journalists. Who the "right people" are is hard to answe

What do you think about writing a tutorial without explaining terminology, but then ask an LLM to generate some kind of terminology index that shows at hover over the terms? If I am writing a tutorial it will take me much longer to explain

No not really. The employer has some documentation, it is not complete but is starting point when issues pop up. For example, a JDK neeed to have special certificates installed if Java tries to talk SSL. And when you juggle with different J

I do something similar but using WSL on Windows. But something I really, really hate is dealing with special certificate handling required to pass the corporate Zscaler proxy. I think it works somewhat transparent on the Windows host, but r

I did not have internet access at the time, but it was possible to order contents of this newsgroup on floppy disks from the national HP48 user group, I think they were located at Chalmers university in Sweden. This was my first encounter

ThinkPads often come up in these discussions but does not the same apply for example for business versions of Dell laptops? Such as Latitude and Precision. I kept one alive for almost ten years, occasionally replacing parts with secondhand

What is going on in a datacenter that motivates a protocol like this? I admit I am ignorarant. Is it for internal allocation, say traffic between Kubernetes nodes, this is envisioned?

What would you say about a dress code at a wedding or a funeral? Are they decided in order to exclude?

Did you use 2FA before? I use it, possibly they deem my security good enough because of that?

Tradition? I have no idea. But many events come with a dress code, and in many sports it is pretty strict even though it does not neccessarily have to be. I can see it both ways - the way you dress have nothing to do with how you play. But

I haven't used passkeys, I have not been prompted about it, asked to create one, been reminded to change to it, or anything like that. It is like they don't exist to me. Am I supposed to be nagged about it in order to change to it

Copyright infringment. But to be fair, perhaps the texts are licensed from Reuters to publish this way. It is unclear to me.

Money. I am sure it is pretty lucrative. Childrens books and cookbooks are typical gifts. You can't really go wrong giving a child a book.

Yes, that is when I stopped reading. I left Twitter recently, but I would not call it a Nazi bar. It is just not for me, any longer.

Ukraine will not cede land to Russia. What is likely though is a frozen conflict along the conflict lines.

I don't think minimal examples are so useful. I reach for Go when bash is insufficient. That means there is a minimal starting size that is large enough that package and imports boilerplate are insignificant, all things considered

Wow 4712 BCE was when the pyramids were new and shiny. Just kidding, it turns out it was the first Julian day. Got some help here: January 1, 4713 BCE marks the beginning of the Julian Day count. This system was introduced by Joseph Scalige

It is a damn shame. Was Russia predetermined to become an autocratic terror state after the fall of USSR, or did Jeltsin just have a bad day when he appointed Putin?

I just write a small Go program. I agree that error handling is a weak point, but the tooling is well integrated. The article mentions that Java does not know about Maven. The go tool is much more versatile in that sense. Also, go run is a

I don't think Java is fit for "the small". And there is nothing wrong with that. My go-to language for "the small" is Go. Java is good for enterprise heavy-lifting, not for quick and nimble tools.
