    The short answer is yes, but your question implies a fundamental misunderstanding of Bitcoin and blockchains. The coins do not exist "in your wallet" - the wallet just holds your k…

    I was mostly concerned with making sure none of the preinstalled Windows Home bloatware would remain after an upgrade. I figured the safest way would be installing Professional rig…

    If you happened to buy a machine with an OEM Windows Home license baked into the motherboard and want to install retail Windows 11 Professional, this makes it extremely frustrating…

    In the US, you no longer need to learn Morse to get any of the amateur licenses. Most people who are learning it today are doing it just for fun.

    Edge has vertical tabs built in. Many other browsers can be made to have vertical tabs with plugins.

    Rider is also a bit different in how it handles Visual Studio solution / project files AFAIK. You can definitely rig up IntelliJ for e.g. Python development, but PyCharm is going t…

    Same here. Been on Windows 11 Pro for a few months now and have had absolutely no issues whatsoever. Definitely like the UI improvements.

    I haven't seen anybody here mention that you can do this with systemd path units [0],[1]. I know not everybody uses Linux (or loves systemd as much as I do) but it's a great soluti…

    I also used to do this when working on a big convoluted system. I had a conference room near my desk with all the walls completely covered in code. A big pack of multicolored highl…

    If you use GNU Parallel, there's a fairly easy way to parallelize [1]. That being said, I hadn't heard of rclone - thanks for mentioning it, it looks amazing. I'll definitely be tr…

    It's hard to recommend anything other than the original K&R - "The C Programming Language". It's obviously not going to teach you the ins and outs of modern C development, but it's…

    Sounds like you would probably like the EdgeSwitch line of products better than Unifi. Cheaper, faster, and easier to manage if you are trying to do something specific.

    Thanks, I see. At least with `:adjust-log-time` you can make it work! With my old log merging program, you had to supply a regex with groups for the different timezone components a…

    That was IIRC how the Chevy Volt worked. Empty was actually around 20% and full was around 80%.

    How does it handle merging log files that are in different time zones? I wrote a small script to merge log files from lots of different network appliances a long time ago, it was e…

    A project you may want to look into adding is Tern [0]. I've had a good time reading through the code over the past couple of weeks, and have found it to be at least not "bad" code…

    I like Packer + Ansible for building machine images. I haven't really tried any alternative workflows but that has been great for my needs so far!

    Sometimes you can't use production data in your staging environment, like when prevented by privacy laws. Often times developers who would not have access to production data would …

    A lot of post provisioning tasks I used to do with Ansible are now handled with cloud-init.

    If you prefer a GUI tool, DeepGit[0] is a very nice tool that allows you to do some pretty amazing code archeology. I use this all the time for figuring out how legacy code evolved…

    If you're competent enough to judge the technical article's credibility, this can be a good supplement to the official docs. I see junior developers running into this problem more …

    Also related - don't read random tutorials on "how to do X", go and find the official documentation for X and RTFM. In my experience this is the easiest and most direct way to lear…

    This is nowhere near being viable for real world use. Far more concerning is how easy it is to bypass most physical security measures. Forgetting about how easy it is to pick open …

    I bet the von Neumann architecture is up there for many of us here, although it seems so simple once you have grasped it.

    Have you tried mosh [0]? I've done remote editing in tmux + vim from a plane without too much grief. [0] https://mosh.org/
