I've worked remote for 2 years in an travel trailer with a 250w solar panel and 200kwh battery and have never needed shore power. I use my phone for hotspotting and use a mac book, they both charge in about 2 hours so I run for 2-3

I worked as an analyst and was able to automate a job people in my shoes spent ~100 hours a year in doing. It was a huge success. Until we needed a machine to run it, with good security controls, high availability... blah blah blah. We&#x2

I'd love to track all this, but it feels like every few years some new technology comes out and I lose a weeks, months, or years worth of lists somewhere. Where do you keep all this?

You know, I once read, or was told, that volunteering is a great way to get out of your head. In fact I spent a good amount of time before traveling doing so and really enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to getting back to stationary li

Your description here, and others, eerily match my own angst with 'being productive'. As someone who has spent covid traveling the States in an RV i've come to realize that I don't know what I really like doing that&#x2

Let me just clarify, sorry i'm from python, so not very familiar but this feels like a "circular reference". You're implementing a struct CartStore which has methods GetById, and Put. Because interfaces (or contracts)

Can you help me understand this code on interfaces? If you were calling (CartStore.GetById()) where does (*cart.Cart) come from? I don't see any logical connection between these two. type Cart interface { GetById(ID string)

I work for a fortune 100 company and GHE has been a nightmare. Not only do you need a team to maintain it, but then that team needs to be equipped enough to help support any other internal services (CI/CD pipelines) that integrate wit

Can you explain what to expect from a "system integrator" company or job? I did a quick google for those in my areas and they seem all over the place, not one mentions "PLC/SCADA"?

Can I ask what your job title is? This sounds like an area i'd be interested in but having only experience with tech i'm not sure of any tips or tricks to finding these hybrid jobs.

That's a false dichotomy. There is no reason that you can't have the opportunity to be a billionaire, while making sure that no one goes homeless or dies from a preventable disease. People love to point to FANNG but the reality is

Why not then have lambda run the same container you can run and test locally? I don't use lambda but we have our jenkins spin up the same ec2 to run tests that we would spin up to do development so that we never run into this problem.

It's not about economics, it's about private capital. Nations and International Institutions loan out money to small countries which seem reasonable, however when they start to slip on payments they're offered relief in excha

I agree that it's not the will of the people on face, however I think a re-do is okay in this situation. The UK is a representative democracy and their elected officials cannot arrive at a deal on something a majority of voters wanted

While I agree with Crimethinc and that quote, I can't seem to get into their writing anymore. Most of their writing comes across as defeatist or exhausting, but it's understandable because they've been promoting leftist idea

Unfortunately for London property has become a massive asset. If you look at who owns most of the houses you'll see that it is foreign buyers, the wealthy with multiple houses, and extreme landlordism. This is artificially raising th
