VirtualBox came to Oracle from the Sun acquisition who acquired InnoTek. I really have always preferred VirtualBox over VMWare player, if you are playing the game of many VM's open VMWare player just is not so fun (I usually am running

Being from the area Waltham is more desirable for business for a lot of the reasons Brin mentions in the article. It's cheaper than living/working in Cambridge and local ordinances have done well to make that a really desirable pl

From what I have read elsewhere most of those stories seem to be in line with what the world at large knows. It is hard to tell if it's just two different parts of the shop lead by by different management with different goals.

I usually develop in VM's where the machines are very well defined so it's easier to build a build machine. In the end though this usually means that the absolute package requirements are held by the project repo so what needs to

I think the interesting thing about Patreon is I keep hearing of people who individually found ways to create similar systems directly for a long time (pre-Internet). It turns into a sort of mail order subscription service where pay in for

It feels like the solution here is to have a serious-business flag for chrome like phabricator does. Is the browser working for me or is it just helping me work for someone else? That seems to be the real intent problem here. I feel for all

It makes a whole lot more sense from a testing and EMF perspective. A connector is generally much more predictable than wireless- and the user interface is a lot easier to understand and troubleshoot by an everyday person. Getting bluetooth

I'm very interested in this area, and for me it's a couple of different factors. From the engineering side: 1. There is a model that is built of what is a valid screenplay, and that can grow and be enhanced over a time. What gets

It's the same thing that happens with tech certifications which are providing a similar service. It often doesn't tell you anything unless you happen to know and are familiar with the ones that have value. It does make it harder t

This is a strange paper to read because I think I have read most of the source material, something I certainly haven't felt before in a formal research paper! I was hoping that it would be more from the context of the publisher working

This is the first time I've heard of this, there just seems to be a bunch of holes in it. OK, so you have a basic embedded-style ROM vm with a light layer of application code above it. Hard, solvable problem that they seem to have cove

I feel the biggest hole in technical/small social groups vs. church groups is the lack of permanency. With most church organizations there is a built in way to bring fresh people in to associate with the church, and a dedicated place t

The mindset is that the services should forget, but if I want persistence it is up to me to remember. I have to same sort of archive of 20 years or so of computing but it's mine and not in custodianship by someone else and that's

What usually happens as one of the 'solve your real problem' people is context. You searched for a path and ended up with a path of A->B->C->D->#block->F but you only tell the group about D->#block and all the re

I am definitely more an outlier here. I am very happy to run machines 6 or 7 years as they move from primary system to network appliance. The other main feature I really like about the D-1541 and D-1587 is that they are mini ITX form factor

It seems incredulous to me to suppose that lobbyists would reject it on that basis. US banking is a powerful force in the world of international banking, it seems naturally prudent to retain lobbyists to make sure you aren't shut out o

This completely overlooks the wonderful D-1541 (only 8 cores/16 threads) through D-1587 (16 cores/32 threads) series of embedded xeons that run at ~45W to ~65W compared to 115W of the E5-2670 (which this article says to run 2x of!

I think this betrays the severity of the issue there. There are plenty of people making ad-hoc roommate arrangements to deal with sharing resources/reducing expenses, but instead of pairs it's threes or more. It's not like be

Playing with some of the methodologies like GTD and others is a good way to get started. A lot of it just has to do with getting thoughts out of your head and into either a text file or physical media. Personally I use a mix, I use digital

I don't think it's that irregular for small or medium sized businesses to negotiate with states or even the local town, and these are businesses at the 2MM to 5MM scale. This can come down to preferential tax laws in exchange for
