    I thought about leaving, even went to 3 days a week IT, and 2 days something else. I was making some serious headway, but in the end... In IT, people are pretty chill. We share ope…

    There's an alternative solution: update everything, but limit your dependencies. Example: for my (personal) projects, I only use whatever is available in the debian repositories. I…

    It was a nice monitor stand though, the pizzabox style. You're right on the sudden change! I remember our 386 was sitting flat on the desk, and the (huuuge) 486 tower was upright b…

    I have a so-called "intelligent speed limited" in my 2 year old car. It's absolutely terrible. On the highway it picks up the 50km/h panel intended for the bus lanes. Close to wher…

    glinet routers are amazing, but their file sharing lacks authentication sadly (well, mine does, at least). So anyone getting access to you network also gets access to your files. I…

    This game was (and still is) flippin' fantastic! The single player mode was great, the two players mode was amazing, the music was banging. If you never played it, I highly recomme…

    Sorry, I'm not sure I understand your question. Can you rephrase?

    I don't think the queue has ever been down in 6 years. It certainly never was a breaking point. As for the database, yes, we could do blue/green I guess, but it's a big database an…

    We have a new project (~ 6 years now) where we implemented a queue with RabbitMQ to temporarily store business events before they are stored in a database for reporting later. It's…

    I agree that it's an interesting question worth exploring. However I'm wondering why we are still at that stage of the game. Animals seem like a "duh, of course" answer to me. They…

    Sorry, why is this even a research? It's uh... pretty obvious they are conscious.

    About 10 years ago I interviewed with Radionomy for the lead position on the Winamp revival. By that time I was working on a competing product at another company, and was admittedl…

    Interesting! Not sure a lot of pro sellers would allow that, but I can see an individual accepting the idea if it means quick cashout

    Not saying you _have_ to lower the price, maybe I'm just a cheap bastard ;) You know what you need out of it. EDIT: actually I just noticed it was cheaper through the "unlimited" o…

    Nice! Might need to buy a car soon, so that's handy! A few comments: - maybe add somes weights to the questions? For example it's more important that the rear view mirrors are prop…

    SQLite reads and writes are already very fast, in particular because it's running in process. The minute you put it behind a socket, you lose that benefit. Also you would have to i…

    Rubbish I did 4k video editing on my 8GB MacBook air M1, and it's still faster than on my desktop with an AMD 3600X and an Nvidia 1650. Granted, it did swap, but it was still faste…
