    I mean, both wxWidgets and Qt are fine, no? GTK 2 and 3 as well (4+ is... meh). There are plenty applications using one of these (often via python bindings). I think it is more of …

    I am very happy that we get the advent of code again this year, however I have read the FAQ for the first time, and I must admit I am not sure I understand the reasoning behind thi…

    Last time I was looking into this, is there not up to an hour of delay for the billing alerts? It did not seem possible to ensure you do not run over your budget.

    One huge advantage of JQ is that it often is installed. I have jq in our Jenkins image, but I do not have this tool. The syntax is bit arcane, but once you invest bit of time into …
