So, if you really are this price sensitive, here's a flip-side. I built a simple email verification service for A company I used to work for. Used API gateway, lambda, s3, and sqs. Few thousand users a month. I don't need to maint

Oh that's cool. This happened to me a few years ago, we'd moved house in December and had no internet all Christmas/new year due to all the contractors being on holiday. I was emotionally scarred enough to still remember it t

Ever tried to use Plex? Your media's "right there" on your local network but you can't play it without internet.

Poetry is amazing, if only for the ability to separate dev and build dependencies. Maybe pipenv does this, but I couldn't get it working well enough to find out. I've flagged trying to manage python versions on my machine and just

I remember finding something like this a few years ago for testing rest apis. It was very cool but for the life of me I can't recall the name :(

Is add one thing to this great advice, schedule downtime for yourself and make sure you stick to it. Willpower/discipline is a finite resource, make sure you don't burn out. If you look at top athletes, none of them work at 100% a

I've tried going the docker environment path before but always hit a roadblock at the actual development stage. VSCode has no idea about your env because it's effectively non-local. So you lose auto-complete, linting etc. How well

I'm a similar age to you and I feel that around 40 people start to detach from their ego. How people view you becomes less important, and as a result you become more comfortable in yourself.

Honestly, get out now. Your story resonates strongly with me because it's basically my story word for word. Except I started as the only developer/operations guy and now I'm managing a small team. At first it was great becaus

I often wonder why GP's don't refer patients to fitness/nutrition specialists like they do for everything else. Medical training does not cover nutrition in any depth, I'd say your average doctor is under-qualified in ad

This is the way to do it. How an applicant applies process to problem solving and communicates their ideas, is way more important than being able to regurgitate bubble-sort.

Wholeheartedly agree. I ended up scrapping our company's PR document and rewrote it for my department. Now it's more a performance review of the company and myself, and attempts to encourage my team to think about how we could imp

You'd think that in any decent company a manager would be held accountable for firings. "They weren't performing, why not? What did you do to assist them? Show us the minutes from your meetings where they outlined why they c

Yep, Magnesium works for me big time. I take a powdered form which seems a lot more effective than pills. Still wake up in the middle of the night sometimes but can get back to sleep easily without my brain switching into overdrive. Melat

This is so easy to get around that it's only going to persecute regular people. As the comments above can attest to, there's multiple ways of circumventing these searches. And we've given it what, 5 minutes of thought? Imagin

Yeah pressing on the area isn't so bad, but pull your fingers away quickly and oh Jesus! I had appendicitis when I was 8. It ruptured during the visit to my GP, literally shit blood, rushed off to the hospital for an emergency appendec

Yeah I just had one of these a couple of weeks ago. Lying on my side and could feel an evil presence behind me, but couldn't move my body at all, even though I was (or at least believed I was) fully awake. Not fun.

I wouldn't call either of these "decent arguments" for forsaking net neutrality. They can both be solved by offering tiered pricing and data caps. For instance, grandma pays $10 a month for a Gb of data, Netflix Youtube kid
