The Bikram worked for me and that was back in 2010-11. Then got in to Yoga multiple sessions per week 2011-2018. I now run and long runs concentrating on what I'm doing and feeling and the whole mechanics and performance - is very the

I can concur. Same results for myself starting into yoga on doing 1-2 Bikram sessions per week. Life saver. Literally.

In the 80s I learnt SSADM and it was great for making sure business logic and architecture were understood and viable before a line of code was run. Which was very important on old mainframes with several hour turnarounds on compiles. For l

Good pun +1 for that. I recommend nginx or Apache for the learning exercise. Then go with whatever best suits your use case. My rule is choose that which fits the objective and which doesn't overburden with cognitive load. So I don

Most MCU code I've seen targets single core single thread especially that for hard real-time. Maybe the author can outline more of the thinking behind coroutines, fibres or green threads or whatever they considered. In a real time if

My experience is exact opposite. I use OnlyOffice as default tool to open office documents because it's blinding fast on Linux( home systems) and macos (work). I don't need 98% of the features in MS Office so OnlyOffice has just w

The volume of Chinese disinformation inside China about Ukraine from Feb 2022 thru dec 2022 was amazing. Bio weapons, assassination plots, secret missiles - pick your favourite conspiracy theory and it was out there. The CCP UnitedFront do

Still use awk since I learnt it in 1991 ans only use the others when I can make awk do all I need so that means leaning on python for more complex logic when required. Tried ha a few times and it did my head in too (yes I'm a lazy idi

Ok seriously jealous of the setup. Have always wanted a rack - just because. I have way too many power cords under the desk but use fused plugs and boards. Want a small cabinet just to keep cables and devices away from small curious people.

Sad day. I have used vim for about as long as it’s been around. Small fraction as a developer, but also for notes and editing huge text files. Always learn something new about it. I salute his contribution to craft and more so his contribu

Too little too late. My bet is WASM being the Great Leap Forward because everything else that has been done in JavaScript is just layer on layer of abstraction, obfuscation and horrendous complexity. I would rather develop in a mature langu

Would be good to get a value on this liability onto a company’s balance sheet. This could be done as a value of risk, or a cost of insuring against data exposure (should be govt mandated to have insurance). If Lloyds can insure against wea

Html email is a pox. I set my email clients to use RTF as it’s simpler, more consistent, and one doesn’t send huge email messages full of utterly useless crap (otherwise known as html tags and stuff). I’ve been using email for 40 years and

Agreed. This is a restructure so that CCP can show they have caused changes and for Alibaba to appear to acquiesce to instructions. Corporate “window dressing” basically. If the units all get too independent, based on my view at ground leve

Should be golden times right now for algorithm and compiler makers. Get more out of the silicon we have and can make. The world doesn’t care if it’s 27nm or 9nm for most use cases. Needs customers to bust the hype cycles or else we remain a

Was on biz trip to Vietnam in late 2017. Went to specialist local coffee shop and the brew was fantastic. Had the kick of an angry mule and a really rich flavour. FTR I don’t like drip or perc coffee and outside of specialist coffee houses
