I do this with an RPi3 and it's doing good, so it's doable. It strongly depends on your setup and develeopment environment, though. Do you want VI to work over SSH or want full VNC access to a machine with Gnome and Eclipse? Or so

Yes, a microwave is very efficient at killing germs, if not one of the best and most reliable solutions available to consumers. Just watch out carefully for things on your jeans (or clothes in general) that you shouldn't put into a mic

It's sad that the myth of freezers killing germs is still a thing. I wonder how many deaths (or at least general "health incidents") per year are a consequence of this. The fact it's from BBC and they quote _someone_ tha

From the article: > We assume customer arrivals and customer service times are random (details later). Where are those details? I expected some math about the random distribution and how that adds up, but I can't even find the corre

I recommend everyone that writes HTML to check out Pug (formerly Jade). It makes writing HTML so much easier when it comes to handling classes, attributes, nesting, readability ... well, basically anything. It transpiles to HTML and when us

IIRC it is the other way around. They had much larger data centers but migrate more and more to AWS because of the stereotypical "on-premise vs cloud in large company"-reasons.

This was actually one of the many selling points to get one of these. No regrets so far.

From a consumer perspective as someone driving the new released Mazda 3 2019 (the one in the article) and previously owning a VW Tiguan with touchscreen in the center, I can say I am super happy with that decision, both from a practical sta

Having your instances run at 100% CPU pretty much raises a red flag at any cloud provider. Depending on your plan it either gets shut off (like in this case) or you get a notice about "suspicious" behavior and a bit of time to fix

There are very close to zero human feces to step over in space (yet), so maybe this is of your interest?

Yup, 404. Even manually going to their blog I can't find the entry anymore. Bookmarked because it was supposed to be an ongoing series with multiple parts. Weird provider. Probably best to avoid.

Probably a side effect from the popularity of Ubuntu which - since they dropped Unity - go still strong with GTK as they use Gnome now out of the box. And Ubuntu is like the de facto standard desktop distribution.

The drag and drop designer part of VS is not even what I think is cool about WPF. To me it's the architecture and the whole API. It's easy to make clean enterprise size applications with good separation of concerns (I've been

This sounds good in theory, but it works less than one out of four times. (no negativity bias included) There's always someone not following the rules, which in human nature automatically grants every observer to do the same. Following
