The price of success I suppose.

When salaries haven't kept up with inflation for something like 30 years, it's perfectly understandable for people to buy the cheaper option. For many families it's not really about choice, but survival. In fact buying everyt

My driver experience has been overwhelmingly positive, but I do tend to run older (cheaper) chipsets. On my work computer with a Ryzen 7 "Renoir" GPU the problem was not the drivers but the fact that the latest Ubuntu LTS ships wi

The target audience seems to be enterprise developers, running JVM applications and needing an introduction to distributed computing. Very unlikely these sorts will jump on the BEAM-wagon. But completely agree that it should be mentioned, i

I agree with you and the sentiment but your tone really discredits the argument. Instead of putting others down it's better to assume good faith, and educate in an elevating way. This way feminism gets a good reputation.

Interesting that they didn't go with what we base it in Western society, essentially the winter solstice. That said I've always thought the vernal equinox makes more sense.

The rovers were extensively tested on Earth. However, Mars has lower gravity than Earth, which would of course have an impact on the wear on the wheels. Maybe there was an underestimation when applying the lessons on Earth to Mars gravity?

Yes! Deployment in particular, as it's never been done before. Launch is on an Ariane 5, and those have become very reliable.

Can confirm, I've made some pretty extensive scenarios with JMeter and while not exactly fun to do it works great. We integrated "normal" requests with WebSockets in the scenarios.

We did this with Vue.js, not sure if it applies to React (I haven't used React). The way we did it was to start with a few parts of the page that really benefited from having Vue.js, using a simple `script src=`. So no components or an

Not the OP but this approach is great if you're starting a new project that is intended to grow. Django has lots of stuff besides the template system, in particular the admin, authentication, and ORM which allow rapid iteration and get

If it's on WiFi, any old packet sniffer on the network should do the job. If it's on cellular, you'll need to have access to police equipment.

I do a lot of searches in French, where a lot of the words are identical to English (English being heavily influenced by French), especially if one leaves out the accents. I also search in Spanish (Castilian), but sometimes I want results f

Having maintained some old open source codebases, I can say that just keeping up with bitrot is at least 1/3 the workload. New versions of the OS, the language, the libraries, etc is not a minor thing to keep track of and update.

If any kind of common sense is used, entertainment and control systems are on completely different hardware busses.

In some (many?) cases, performance is limited on a motor by the ECU because the hardware is unable to cope with the extra wear. For example same block, heads and intake but different (cheaper) pistons, valves, springs, injectors, etc ... Su

Yup, this is part of the reason I just bought a Dacia Dokker. Another reason is that there's no touch screen anywhere.

The US brought unbelievable horror to Japanese civilians, see the firebombing of cities and of course the only use of atomic weapons in warfare. You don't need to be a Y apologist to criticize the behavior of X, their enemy.

Close the border, it's as simple as that. All countries that were able to lower infections did this. In Europe this was done even between neighboring countries both part of Shengen.

This is why I like KDE neon: solid Ubuntu LTS base (still a bit newer than Debian usually) with the latest KDE apps on top. There's not too many open source apps that aren't covered by KDE, with the exception of GIMP. Then I just

I spent a few months in the region with a sick toddler and can attest to the speed, quality and friendliness of the public health system there. That the virus is spreading so quickly, and that the health system is getting overwhelmed is cau

Then you probably shouldn't look at the uWSGI documentation. "The emperor-tyrant forced my master to commit harakiri."

This looks pretty cool, wish I had heard of it at my last job, where we orchestrated all of our physical servers using Salt. There are times when unfortunately the end result can be a bit tricky to predict, especially when using the reactor

HN is brutalist, meaning raw, unvarnished. There's no excessive whitespace and no animations. It's minimal in the correct sense: as simple as possible, but no more. The problem with many sites is that they're actually quite c

Modern JavaScript is a major pain to set up, but the difference with other languages is that for some things it's the only language available.

It's certainly possible, but more complex than just putting up a bunch of stateless application servers all accessing the same database. With no local cache. Then saying the DB is slow ;-) It's also the kind of thing many develope
