Honestly, it should be an obligation. DB should make it one for themselves. DB carries millions of people a year that do not speak the language. Important information like route changes should be available to them. English just happens to b

How many X servers named Pheonix are there? Surely it doesn't matter if there are frameworks and libraries of the same name in other areas. It's inevitable to have collisions like this.

I used to use GIMP as an example of OSS desktop applications having bad UX, I mean back around 2010 maybe. The UX felt plain horrible. Anything I every tried there was pain to achieve. And there was plethora of desktop applications having t

Not at all. With human you can have some expectations based on context, expertise. They are also far less likely to make up extremely specific details.

It's possible to deduce password hashes by timing responses over the internet if the server isn't using constant time comparison. Noise is just that, a noise.

Random anecdote: I have a device in which the http client can't handle https. Runs out of memory and crashes. Wasn't able to find a free host with a public http to host a proxy.

I don't think that's the OP's issue, it's just in this context. Can someone from the industry confirm whether they use metric internally and the stream uses imperial just for the patriotic show or whether imperial units

At least until a certain level, scrambling (according to a given "algorithm") is a good way to practice moves. It shouldn't take much longer than a solution either, you are not solving the cube in under 30 moves. And if you d

It needs to be somewhat smart, if you want to track your scrambles and times. But yes, it doesn't need cameras if it trusts you.

You can be open source and not take contributions. This argument doesn't make sense to me. Just stop doing the expensive part and keep the license as is.

It's not entirely uncommon to only have parts of the solution open. So a license on one repo might not be the whole story and looking further would take more time than giving a good suggestion to the author.

Interesting, I don't think I've seen that while NULLs are very common. I guess you would handle it in the application and not in the query, right?

If you are optimizng for simplicity it may not be, as the use as a cache is much (much) more straightforward. Also, for a new project, I'd go with in-memory service-level cache as it outperforms both (in any metric) and can be easily r
