But this is people that use their autocomplete, F8 step through debugging and the like. I was like that about 20 years ago, working with Eclipse and later NetBeans for Java and Visual Studio for C# .net v1 (anyone remembers whole tomato ext

Similar to this, I still install irfanview via wine in my linux desktop. There's just nothing close to it. I tried some suggestions like nomacs but they are just not there.

We've been using ToolJet (the open source version) at my company with good results. It is self hosted, open source and you can export created apps in some JSON format. I've successfully setup a dev-stage-prod flow where we export

I maje my own electrolyte drink with water, spoonful of sugar and spoonful of "low sodium" salt: they add potassium to those, which completes the electrolyte menu. Sometimes I add a dash of lime Veeeey low cost and great. And yo

I don't think it's a matter of intelligence. It's a matter of ignorance/knowledge. I read a statistic that 50% of grown up Americans have only 6th grade education. Which means that what? 60%-65% may have 9th grade? The

Ha! Reminded me several years ago I was working at some place that had locked down our computers and we couldn't do anything. Except that windoze had that bug allowing to run the 'at' command to spawn some shell with system

I don't think the problem is that they are profit oriented, but is more of an issue of unaligned incentives. Same as with insurance and LinkedIn type apps. I thought of a dating app in which I would charge a hefty ($1000 usd) initial

One of the things i miss the most from developing in ruby is the code quality instrumentation: metric-fu, reek, rubocop and lots of other gems that allowed us (in a previous ruby shop) understand and monitor the quality of our code like ABC

I was just looking at the Ubuntu work on the OEM kernel release. Apparently it is maintained by someone from China. It will be a bummer if that work stops.

I see a lot of negative comments. Want to leave a positive one. The site worked fine for me and the process was pretty straight forward. Image generation took a bit (currently waiting, will keep writing once it finishes). I sent 3 images t

I used the wal feature with a bash script that compressed the wal into .xz files (-9 compression) every 10,000 lines and stored those files in s3fs folder. This as a type of "online" backup solution.

This rings true in my experience. I'm in the tech space, but my brother is a veterinarian. Find a job, he must comb through local newspapers, look for vet shops, ask friends/colleagues and maybe look in 3 or 4 job pages. And

I'm in the same boat. I've got a monster i9, always ON PC with 128gb ram, linux desktop and a 40TB nas at home. The 80% of the time I'm WFH, it's amazing. For the other 20% time when I'm on the go, I want the small

Your businesses model is wrong. Don't make your businesses/profit model be one of artificial scarcity, as it was in the previous millennium. Instead, write a TOC and say a first chapter. And give it free. Then establish a target

That sucks: CEO knew the gravity of money being lost but couldn't hire 3 people to cover a 12/12 shift?

On call is kind of like Open Offices layouts. It was created to reduce costs for companies, at the sake of abusing employees. Whatever happened to hiring people in schedules that will cover the 24/7 shift. Manufacturing companies don

I find it sad the current generation of techno-rich people. We had Jobs and Gates , who ultimately were geeks of their trades. Then (next gen) we have Bezos, Zuckerberg who, are still a geek by heart, but also a bit of sociopaths. Now yo

It is ridiculous right? Which is why the fact that Apple is rejecting the app is also ridiculous.

I disagree. The permission should be allowed/denied by the end user. There's no reason why a third party has to have say in that.

It's because it's a strsight full blown scam. And it's accepted by society... terrible. The only for profit business where you pay the company to give you a "service". But the company's main objective is to do
