I know Roku doesn’t exactly have the greatest track record but I’ve owned them relatively trouble free since at least 2010, having refreshed them all once or twice since. Way back …

I may be able to help, I just sent you an email.

I have never come across a post on HN that was so scarily describing my current day to day and with a comment I agree with so wholeheartedly. I’ve spent the majority of my career i…

You’ve captured the lions share of the problem. My personal hobbies as well as an off-road race we started amongst friends years ago accidentally becoming insanely popular has lead…

You just described my last 6 weeks…

THIS is the real problem. For _most_ projects upgrading from 8 to 9 meant just adding a few packages that were removed from default JDK with Jigsaw. That part is generally fine, ev…

I do both. I’ve got lots of not computer hobbies (and kids) and I have tinker projects. I usually use early morning a couple days a week for tinker time as I’m an early riser.

It does. Primarily, worker threads query the DB for jobs to pick up. They can write state back when running a job, and they can have configurable (per job type) retry rules. So in …

I have a 15 year old Brother black and white laser all-in-one and a 6 year old black and white laser with Wi-Fi still on the starter toner in my office. They work on Linux, Mac, an…

I follow it pretty closely. I don’t have any automation setup for changelogs or anything at this point, but it’s pretty easy for me, as back in ye old SVN/Trac days there were simi…

I’ve been using it for a long time and I’d happily pay $100 for it. It can consume swagger/openapi docs and generate calls. It can generate code snippets and cURL requests. You can…

I keep my lid closed as well and I’ve never had it not wake up. Though, with the latest is version it has seemed slower to wake at times.

It’s _mostly_ kinda sorta like that. There are broad groups that are basically the same; Craftsman and Dewalt being owned by Black and Decker, for instance. But it’s a crazy web de…

I’ve got the TS 3 Plus dock (which has Ethernet) and it has been working flawlessly on my 2020 MBP (Intel) the entire time. I _think_ there was a firmware update in the early days …

Pretty sure it would be at most $5 - I’ll have to double check. We pay for premium Active Directory (almost exclusively to get the extra security features), so that might be why it…

I found with admin rules turned up I was getting the same. And you can’t have different rules per service, such as daily for email but every time for Admin console. So I did what I…

Also in Oregon (Portland area) and though it doesn’t feel darn near as hot the addition of mediocre air quality from the forest fires and higher than normal humidity make it suck s…

I thought it was first or firstOrNull. Or is there a new Kotlin collection method I need to learn about? Aside, Kotlin collection extensions might be my favorite thing I learned in…

We had something similar in the Pacific Northwest of the US last month. It’s not uncommon for us to see a few days per summer in the 97-102 (36-39C) range but it will always be in …

I was 30 (8 years ago) when I was diagnosed with it, but my teachers and friends had joked about my “ADD” since I was a kid. A coworker was talking about their kid’s diagnosis and …

If RDS or other “hard to replicate very quickly during disaster” infra is being run I personally would still have cross A-Z replication at minimum, to reduce network costs I would …

As someone who was a motorcycle safety instructor, which required a ton of training and memorization of safety statistics for a 20 something year old in order to teach new riders f…

I took CS among others in high school but didn’t have to sacrifice foreign language for it. It uses different parts of your brain. Honestly, my exposure to foreign languages has he…

I’ve lived in Oregon most my life. Not unlike Washington (or many other states), when you get out of the metro areas the voting turns from “blue” to “red” pretty quickly. East of B…

And on many of these points I agree... I was careful to choose popular, and not project opinions about SQL/NoSQL/etc. In my field, most of our data is relational and we use NoSQL f…
