   I would recommend FreeBSD if you were going to try one of them. The BSD experience a bit like using linux was like 15 years ago. Online DRM for sites like Netflix will not work for example. Specifically in the case of FreeBSD the filesystem

   I believe Java web frameworks still come out on top in terms of performance speed.

   I've read that that stuff is bad for your liver. Worth keeping an eye out for signs of jaundice. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitragyna_speciosa#Liver_toxic...

   I agree generally with the diagnosis here. Although I disagree with the notion that a more equitable society is a silver bullet for reducing human misery. Firstly, in terms of social media I doubt that misery would ever stop commanding peop

   I don't understand why rust integration doesn't happen on a fork, especially for important packages like this. I'm sure people would elect to use py-cryptography-rust and it woule avoid an open-goal from people looking to sei

   I always use sqlite3 for working with large CSV files: $ sqlite3 $ .mode csv $ .import my.csv foo $ SELECT * FROM foo WHERE name = 'bar'; It reads the header in automatically for the field names and then store

    My partner is from Essex and I thought she was kidding when she said she did the Eleven Plus. We learnt about it in high school history class in Scotland! The module was on the foundations of the British Welfare state and it was discussed a

    I never used emojis in my private life until I started working as a software developer. I end up using them all day, everyday on Slack at work and now they have bled into my vocabulary everywhere.

    I work in digital advertising analytics and we do try to mitigate the repeat customer phenomenon the author mentions. Typically we only record the first web visit from a household during the campaign window for example.

    This is a really old debate in psychiatry. My father studied it in the 70s and said that the establishment of his day were suspicious of all medications and all the academic literature suggested drugs should only be used as a last resort. T

    Thought provoking article. I am not convinced that the correlation of drug liberalization and deaths is sufficient to say there is a causation. However, I do agree with the author's main point that policy should not be dictated by ideo

    I always recommend nano to juniors if they need to edit config files on their local environment. Being able to use a CLI editor is an essential skill but there is no need to make it complicated.

    Any logical argument which is inductive is technically fallacy. The way people use the phrase "fallacy" as a checkmate in online discussions, but this ignores the fact that all empirical study is fallacious strictly.

    I worked my fingers to the bone to get A grades in my highers. The grading was done based on a distribution where only a certain % of candidates could get each grade in a given exam. Teacher assesed grades are antithetical to the purpose of

    I only started using emacs relatively recently, maybe since 2016 or so, but I use it every day. I've worked in a couple of different places in that time, first using Debian and now I've got a company macbook. By using emacs I didn

    As someone from the UK I consume a lot of BBC radio. Mostly BBC4 for news/docs, BBC6 for music and BBC5 for sports when I can't get to a TV. I'm intrigued by the idea that people from other countries might be similarly enthus

    Great article. I sometimes wonder if one of the issues with discourse on the internet is user accounts. On social media we have online virtual personae that we cultivate and pay attention to like a tamagotchi. That leads to people being in
