All that’s really happened is that developers have learned or taken on the responsibility to build and deploy to production, and also be knowledgeable and responsible for the development stack, hence “full stack developer”. Unfortunately, i

Some of the earliest memories were storage loops on a bigger scale. Mercury Delay Lines were a type of memory that relied on sound waves being cycled through tubes of mercury. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delay_line_me

It doesn't need a wifi network, it's direct device-to-device. In fact, it can be much faster than copying using traditional file shares etc, as wireless routers can slow things down.

It’ll be massively I/O bottlenecked on a single spindle, using a table that’s double the size of the available RAM. I don’t know what the blog post was trying to prove, to be honest. If I wanted to display the benefits of parallelism,

I adore SQL NULL. The problem is that people don't use it correctly & the empty string can be a nightmare. SOrry, not adding much to this, but it's a significant problem in the real world. People often don't understand NU

No. A CEO runs every aspect of a business. While it might be a bad call outsourcing everything, they obviously want expertise rather than having to either rely on their current team that fucked up (which would be viewed as negative), or tak

If anyone wants a recommendation for an alternative, I can happily suggest Xero. What a mess, though. Worst part of a business to be crippled is its core - financials. A part often overlooked by techies. If you can’t invoice, you can’t pay

+1 for healthfit. So glad I discovered it! I do exactly the same as you. I bar any other fitness apps from writing data directly to Apple Health (but allow them to read), with the exception of my Withings scales that are allowed to only wri

I have a sneaking suspicion that Microsoft will release their own Wine-a-like subsystem some time soon. It's the missing link, and I can't see them ignoring it given how their direction has changed over the last few years.
