   I don't understand why he would blame Freelancer and not himself. How do you even sleep at night if you rely completely on one platform? It's also widely known that all those sites suck and the same story happens over and over aga

   After using most CI/CD tools I can tell you that for your tech stack there is no reason to use Jenkins. It sucks, typical Java software that looks like shit, has a buggy interface but somehow runs well enough to be "Enterprise rea

   For us developers this might be true, but I also know people who just smoke every hour, they stop doing what they are doing just to get their cig... and that's everything but effective.

   Me neither. Also, I am trying to get my $1000 back for 2 months now since it probably would take around 2 years until I get my Model 3. They are delaying and delaying the payout, so instead of me becoming a Tesla customer I am hating them m

   Is there any way to see which facilities Google Cloud is using?

   They have their vRack available for those instances. Have them running in production just fine.

   You don't use AWS in the first place. Most projects are better off going with bare metal and use spot instances for spikes. Will cut your costs dramatically.

   I can see this being true. Also Xarelto and other drugs that can be used to prevent strokes are good for some things but the cons outweighs the pros for sure.

    You should look into Xiaomi. They produce high quality phones that receive regular updates, even older phones on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. They update security patches very fast and even offer the A1, which is stock Android, for around 2

    The integrated graphics unit of those is apparently 2-3x as good as the Intel equivalent in some benchmarks[0]. Sounds very promising overall. [0]: https://heise.cloudimg.io/bound/2300x1400/tjpeg.q90.webp-los...

    I agree completely, also their platform is just so slow and full of bugs. It simply looks like they havn't changed anything in the past 10 years. Edit: Forgot to mention that their search is so bad, they mix search results with search

    LocomotiveCMS is very good, I use it for countless client projects. The only thing I dislike is the reliance on MongoDB, which basically was a no-go for me in the beginning but it runs fine for years now.

    If your sending volumes are low a dedicated IP can be worse than shared IPs.

    Location doesn't matter as much as your ISP. If GitHub would have a peering with your ISP or'd buy transit from them the speed would be way better, even from Europe to the west coast.

    How much disk space do those 2B records need?

    This is btw the ASN of GitHub: https://bgp.he.net/AS36459#_asinfo From the peering tab I would guess that they use Telia, NTT, Verizon and Level3 as transit providers, the others seem to be regular peerings. Transit-wise

    Yes totally, what I was trying to say is that instead of founding an UG where you have to put 25% aside until you hit the 25k, it makes much more sense to simply found a GmbH with 12,5k that comes with its prestige and it will make it much

    You can also found the GmbH with 12,5k EUR instead of 25k, which makes much more sense than going the UG route.

    I am still missing Rdio in that regard, they were just playing the right songs all the time. With Spotify this is absolutely not the case and it's even far worse than YouTube.

    If you don't need any connection scaleway is a good option, since they tend to absolutely not care about their network quality and reliability at all.

    Agree, just look at the "new" Airport in Berlin, which will probably never go live.

    I usually get paid within 5, max 10 days. I pay other contractors and basically any invoice instantly. There is no reason for me to wait 30 days to pay them. If they have the money the next day they are happy and will gladly work for me aga
