I've definitely experienced this trap first hand, transforming a web app from a monolith to a distributed app with a ton of bells and whistles. I think having some years of experience under your belt transforms you from longing for com

The question should be, how to not see a satellite. Even looking up for 3 minutes I can see at least one satellite flying over on a clear night. For context, this is rural, south-west France (Lot-et-Garonne) with little to no light pollutio

Binance has a more thorough KYC process than any financial institute / bank I've ever head to deal with . To the point that I've had to submit documents about proof of income. It feels Reuters has a bone to pick as there is n

It will not easily disappear, but there is a clear negative sentiment around crypto, even more with the current heat waves and energy crisis. I don't think it looks good on the balance sheet of institutions, and institutional buy-in wa

Ubuntu / Linux definitely has come a long way. I used to compile kernels, write X11 config files, now it just works. Timed perfectly with my lack of time / willingness to tinker for hours to get stuff working.

Quite a drastic change of direction it was. I wasn't willing to pay what Google asked for my sites maps usage and went to Mapbox until they stated raising prices. Currently using OSM with osm-static-maps https://github.com&

I think it helps if your Hetzner account is at least a couple of months old, with usage. Quite often these things happen to new accounts. Lock your server down and monitor resource and bandwidth usage. You don't want to be banned becau

Interesting project. How does this compare with for instance ccxt ? I think if someone is serious about semi or automated trading, writing your own exchange API integration is something you cannot get around. Every exchange is different an

Is anyone running mission critical software on this rather new platform? In my experience every added cloud service becomes another potential weak link in your chain. A distributed DB for your data, a CDN for static assets, a couple of lam

The real problem is not less rainfall but ever growing expansion of unsustainable agriculture in these regions. For instance in Southern Spain there are countless illegal boreholes and this number is growing every year [0]. Every time I vis
