The MS Family stuff has all been broken through the app for me for the past 2-3 months - I get the notifications, get the buttons to approve, and click works, everything seems norm…

Maybe Knex.js, or Bookshelf.js (ORM) if you need more?

These takeovers are often just a case of finding stale DNS entries that are pointed at resources which can be re-allocated by third parties, i.e. elastic IP addresses on AWS. So it…

You can use Svelte completely separate from SvelteKit - we've been using it for a while now and integrating with our pre-existing APIs with no issues, some of those are serverless,…

Have you looked at Svelte? We've been migrating over to it from Redux/React, and it's so far been a great experience. It's greatly simplified a lot of our code, and eliminated a wh…

Easy to say when you're not the one being held hostage, unable to sleep for days on end.

Not all portions of VS are maintained to the same degree - their BI tools were horrible for years, and there was not much in the way of alternatives. I'd often spend more time fixi…

I personally am just looking for a stable tool to build and test images. I can appreciate that Docker is looking for a way to become sustainable, but the way they are going about d…

EKS has actually come a long way in the last couple of years. They now have 'eksctl' that helps a lot with provisioning/de-provisioning the node pools. They're also pretty up to da…

I've been using rebass lately and finding it quite nice - not sure how it compares with anything angular/sails based though. http://jxnblk.com/rebass/

Most recentlyv they generate a token on startup, which you need to interact with anything. It's fairly seamless on a client computer as the browser that is launched will get that t…

I'm not so sure, I think go still has a ways to 'go': https://www.indeed.com/jobtrends/q-elixir-q-java-q-go-q-who.... ...or maybe we're reading a bit more into the data than what i…

Using pandas you can do a lot of that with a query and a connection, dumping to CSV/Excel/JSON etc is pretty trivial once you have your data in a dataframe. It also supports writin…

I've found that a lot of the time Coursera is just making it difficult to register for free for courses, but if you find the right page it's still an option. Go to the specific pag…

Of course it works fine with XP, that was the target specs in 2001 when that OS was released. Maybe try a Linux distribution from 2001 and you'd have a fair comparison.

I personally just found the C# syntax more straightforward than VB.NET, C# was new and VB seemed to have a bit of baggage. I never had much in the way of problems, even as a beginn…

I found that with the SC the aiming for games just isn't there. I miss the right analog stick too much, and despite trying I couldn't get anywhere near the accuracy with the SC as …

It based on functionality that all exists in the traditional on-prem SQL Server as well - certainly not the e-mail and point a click creation, but you can definitely query SQL Serv…

The SQL Server Database Tuning Adviser will happily create all the indexes, stats, and what not, for a given workload. And yeah, you can speed up your queries (the workload) as a r…

I'm also a fan of Linux Mint, but prefer the KDE edition - I used to dislike KDE, but with plasma 5.6+ it's become quite polished and nice to use. I've also found LM to be much mor…

I believe it's based upon hyper-v, which typically precludes using other VM software on the same machine. Docker toolbox for Windows 10 has the same issues.

There are plenty of good games out there that don't go the IAP route, but they're pretty rare on mobile platforms - this is one of the major reasons I prefer PC gaming. I've even h…

Firefox has it's issues as well, which they also 'refuse' to fix. For instance, much of the browser falls apart when using remote desktop (RDP) sessions - it can even break remote …

It's a web log analysis tool, not a general data viz platform. This may be more what you're looking for though: http://www.cyclotron.io

It works just fine with piped input actually, I use it regularly with zcat.
