I assume when you mention `on-site` you mean my house - yep, NAS is at home.

I self-host. And then I backup everything to my RAID6 NAS. And then, though irregularly, backup to offline media. I sometimes read comments on this very forum, that hosting your own email server is risky and requires lots of work. I agree i

This, I can't agree more! When I was attending school, I remember it to be more of a survival camp and adjustment to structures than anything else. I hated it with passion and yet I was expected to bring good grades. As a result I deve

Long time ago I was working for UK company who was hiring for remote roles around Europe. This was pre-GDPR era and it worked well both for the company and for the contractors. We engaged on B2B basis. When GDPR came in we adjusted operatio

I fall asleep a few minutes after I lay down on bed, does not matter if it's day or night. If I can't fall asleep at night and I know I have to be fresh next day, I focus on each muscle in my body and consciously relax it. I start

I was considering to incorporate in UK (not for tax reasons but for transparency of their laws compared with the place where I live). My accountant told me that recently there had been laws introduced making it basically impossible to becom

This website is hilarious! Thanks for sharing! I thought the place where I live is expensive, used the website to compare with Tallinn and found place where I live is actually cheaper in most areas :)

Asking as somebody who does not really get this law jargon - if you distribute your software, which might be a little bit of glue code putting together some freely available open-source libraries, then would you be liable for auditing only

This feels like trying to match physical-world regulations to software products... I'm skeptical about this legislation, it feels like another step for policy makers to conquer software domain which is still very open for anybody to en

I wonder where would be the boundaries in case such legislation was pushed through. If my software is python-based then would python itself would have to be audited too? If I run my software in Podman containers then should Podman be audite

I don't know that, I don't work for Meta. Would be nice if you can share source to back your claim, if Meta is paying whole package to somebody who only worked for 2 days then that would be entirely different story for that guy.

I'd add to this comment - many options is certainly better than not many options. I personally prefer to have rich and colorful set of options to use depending on my current needs than to have to choose from, say, 2 options (presumably
