Hang on. So this is the Business Software Association acting on behalf of Microsoft issuing a takedown notice to Microsoft-owned Github? Sounds like this could have been solved with a couple of internal emails. Or more likely BSA are just g

No it doesn't. Neither does it include some of the configuration values you need to build the mobile apps. It looks like this was a last minute political decision to open source the code in the face of growing public disquiet rather th

This is probably really good but the linked Colab notebook is failing on the first step with some unresolvable dependencies. This does seem to be a bit of a common theme whenever I try running example ML projects. Edit: I think I've fi

It massively reduces the number of script kiddie attacks. It's not hard to find SSH on a non-standard port but most SKs don't know or don't bother. Other possible reason is NAT. If you've got several machines or VMs but

Obviously I have no idea what your product is but if I got that message I'd just likely go to one of your competitors (assuming they exist). I wouldn't go and buy another device unless it was for an absolutely critical application

I'm two-thirds of the way through the same course at the moment. To be honest, I've been pretty disappointed with it. I've found the modules to be much more geared towards the management of IT rather than computing and the te

University education in the UK has become increasingly commercialised and increasingly expensive. Undergraduate tuition fees are over £9k a year (it was zero when I went to university 20 years ago). Those fees are capped by government but u
