Probably depends on where you are, etc., but as an European, I was taught in school two ways of splitting the year up into seasons: calendar/astrological and meteorological. Calend…

I meant speeding cameras, where a system OCRs your license plate and you receive a fine after a month or even two months. Fine being monetary + points, depending on how fast you dr…

But couldn't you then have the same argument for speeding tickets (or parking tickets)? Like, "I don't know who drove my car too fast or parked my car on the curb, so it's not my p…

Of course it's political, what else could it be? If Putin's regime is censoring western media, is it any less political? In other words, is there any censoring of news media (forei…

It's not banned. I am within EU and can normally access RT website. I can also access yandex, etc. Without VPN or proxies. SO, how is this "standard European censorship"? Don't bel…

A nautical mile is ~6,076 feet or exactly 1,852 meters (???). That is actually defined by distances on Earth (which is of course an approximation, but still ...). So, 1 nautical mi…

Can you expand a bit on this use case? Why would Puppeteer constantly crash on your own high end machine, but not on Trigger's infra? Puppeteer doesn't care where it runs, so it wo…

Same here. I have a colleague that is completely enamored with these agents. Uses them for everything he can, not just coding. Commit messages, opening PRs, Linear tickets, etc. Ba…

If they didn't take investments (and therefore not beholden to all that unicorn expectations), then it's totally fine. They've reached profitability sometime last yer, if I remembe…

Yeah, min.io really soured AGPL license, for me at least. Because of their stance I've switched away from min.io in our company and avoid everything AGPL like a plague. Having read…

We have *.example.dev, *.example.qa, *.example.com for development, staging/qa and production. Works well and we haven't had any issues with cookies.

I don't know about ParadeDB, but this was very off-putting for me in case of Minio when they switched to AGPL. If you check their answers to various license questions, they are ess…

Hey there, does sharing the screen to Mac require some kind of cloud sync? If so, is there any noticeable delay from sketching on the device to appearing on Mac?
