    Would be interesting to see the EU say none of the projects it funds can use AWS until Amazon play ball.

    Yeah I gave up on it trying to sync photos. The apps on the desktop and mobile gave no indication of its state processing files. So I was waiting after a large upload for replicati…

    Can someone explain this to me like I’m 5? I thought web assembly was primarily run in a browser. Is this saying you can run a wasm binary in your go project (outside of the browse…

    How exactly can your IT department whitelist all software on your device? Are you using any build tools that install third party dependencies or are you using any development tools…

    Kind of amazing they are still a going business. I didn't realise any companies really used lisp for anything. I assume whoever is paying them money is doing so for some really nic…

    Yeah I can’t say I disagree with you. The tone of it stuck me as terrible though.

    You don’t. You just fire the number based largely on cost and let the remaining people pick up the pieces.

    At least under UK contract law such a term isn’t valid as pre calculated damage clauses are considered null.

    WhatsApp doesn’t provide anything messenger doesn’t. As far as I can tell, WhatsApp as a product reached its ‘market fit’ years and years ago, in that they stopped bothering trying…

    The NHS is massive bureaucracy. What it does or doesn’t do is peering inside the belly of a Byzantine whale. The article is a misnomer calling him an ‘amateur’. Its a click bait ti…

    Yeah I had an interview like this recently. First part of the interview proceeded well as they asked me to read different bits of code and how different language features worked. T…

    There's a wider issue around any cloud SAAS offering. You really need to keep local copies of stuff if you want to be sure you can reproduce your build. As there's a chance, even a…

    I forked a repo on GitHub. A few weeks later a DMCA take-down notice was issued against the repo (and all forks). Someone claimed the repo had stolen their copyrighted stuff. Unfor…
