My school had a classroom of BBC Micros which were connected over a primitive network to a "server" which I guess must have had a hard drive for saving files too. I can't take the …

This is pretty up to date: https://github.com/ryyppy/nextjs-default

Currently getting up to speed with Reason (ReasonML). The latest version (3) brings Javascript-like syntax, and after many years of dynamically typed languages, having a compiler i…

This is too technical for most unfortunately, but the only way to guard something as valuable as your email address is to own the domain and so control the MX records. I'm fortunat…

Ours is a commercial service, but we built https://www.bigfilebox.com to solve this problem 10 years ago and we're still going strong. Our main market is architects and engineers w…

It would be a great destination for cloud backup, where one of the concerns is loss of all your backed up data due to malicious action - look at the trouble the hackers had to go t…

We were using Mandrill's email to HTTP feature for delivering inbound emails into our web services. The cutover period for needing to be a paying Mailchimp is April 27th, so we had…

Exactly this, made even simpler by the naming scheme that lets you have iOS and Android versions of the same component.

I'm referring to native apps on iOS and Android as the code commonality is huge, with just a small number of platform specific components. The biggest surprise though was how much …

As a C and then a Ruby on Rails programmer, I never thought I would see the day that my main programming language was Javascript. But I find React such an enabling technology that …

It appears to be an Azure AD issue at the root.

It's impacting any O365 web based login across Europe. If you're logged in, everything works. Mail is delivered by activesync/ Outlook still. http://downdetector.com/status/office-…

It seems to be http (perhaps load balancers) rather than the instances being down - I'm ssh-ed into a droplet and everything is working fine, except remote HTTP connections.

Looks like they've fixed whatever the issue was as our networking is back to normal.

Similar here, direct to an instance, it runs at about full speed for 15 seconds, then stops. We can SSH in no problem, and the web logs show some people are connecting in fine. Fun…
