    I tried to create a date object in Swift from the date October 5, 1582. The resultant date object was October 15th 1582.

    And it's option-m on a Mac.

    This is exactly what I've been wondering... The developer page doesn't really provide much insight into things either. Other than their development environment is based on React Na…

    If you want to see what it's like to actually drive an electric big rig, check out the Electric Trucker[1] on YouTube. He's German but has invested a lot of time in documenting wha…

    I think they get heavily used by security researchers, and other people that do regular Penetration Testing.

    Same here! I always like to say that software engineering is 50% knowing the basics (How to write/read code, basic logic) and 50% having great research skills. So much of our time …

    The lack of API doc's for the c version is kind of frustrating. It makes it impossible for someone to evaluate whether or not your library is suitable for something they need. Or i…

    This is pretty cool. Just needs clients for iOS and Android and it would be a rock solid replacement for a lot of large enterprises, or privacy minded companies.

    I couldn't agree more. Yes there is some utility to things like Electronc and React Native. They are great for small startups that don't have the money to hire a team for each plat…

    Yeah they evacuated the entire town from what I heard. So there is no danger to any lives. I'm pretty sure the city has accepted that as long as no one dies, that everything else c…

    I've been a software engineer for nearly 20 years now, and you know what I do when I hav the time? I blow glass. Honestly I enjoyed writing code much more when I was a teen and in …

    Thanks for posting about this. I had no clue it existed and I have to say I agree I really like how elegant it looks.

    The title on this is very misleading. It tested USB 3.2 not Thunderbolt. While they are the same port, they are not the same standard. My guess Apple doesn't support 10Gbps over US…

    My Partner is from Sonoma, and we have driven past this exact spot several times, and I honestly had no clue.

    I've used the one on falstad.com many many times to design op-amp circuits quickly so I could see exactly changing each component would do.

    I'm happy to see WP finally supporting a DB other than MySQL. Maybe they'll support PostgreSQL as well.

    While I'm glad to see them supporting a DB backend other than MySQL, I would also like to see a PostgreSQL backend get built.

    This sure sounds like a good way to get an antitrust/anticompetitive lawsuit launched against you.

    I use this a lot for quickly testing things out when I am not entirely sure what I need. It's incredibly powerful, and give you scopes so you can verify things work. It may be very…

    Definitely not. Though I never completed it, I still ended up in as a software engineer in the end. Hobby programming definitely made me a much better programmer during my time in …

    Have you considered Webex? The newer versions are a lot more comprehensive and more akin to say Telegram or Slack.

    For me I think this misses another issue that may or may have not been pointed out: The bigger issue isn't people or resturaunts using gas, but the gas pipelines themselves leaking…
