Matomo has gotten a ton of traction in Sweden at least.

These are wormholes, obviously. On a serious note, beautiful and awe-inspiring!

A long time ago I worked as the infrastructure & systems manager of an biostatistical institution at a medical university. The institution had a large staff of highly qualified pro…

My father (67, retired) has a couple of friends his age with long time, small businesses in the IT industry. One has been making some sort of map software for a very small niche in…

I wonder how the drone looked afterwards

I am using both a dedicated 35mm film scanner (not flatbed) and a DSLR with macro for repro, the latter for medium format film. The outcome quality of both processes is identical a…

> The harder part is now getting a computer that will take the firewire (you may have an old laptop -- macs had them until like 08 -- or get a firewire-to-usb2.0 cable or thunderbo…

It's crazy how average pay differs from even expensive, technology and knowledge heavy parts of Europe. Where I live, Stockholm Sweden, this would be a very well paid person. Even …

Netnod, one of the largest IX in the nordics, has public stats here: https://www.netnod.se/ix-stats/All.html Don't know about any ISPs that do this.

I apply the LT5 rule: If a task takes Less Than 5 minutes, do it now. This works really well for me because I can concat several LT5 tasks.

This is a great resource: https://tobyrush.com/theorypages/pdf/en-us/the-whole-enchila...

Of course it is. It's part of the signaling equation. The same way that someone might put on a nice suit for an interview or a date when they're usually not wearing suits at all. "…

Thank you for complementing my sales skills ;) I hear you and agree to some extent.

People outside of HN and similar circles usually get impressed with shiny things. "Regular people", most often in business situations, or with business minded people. I run my own …

This is my experience too, and also in other areas. I have to include "stack overflow" or "forum" keywords to actually find something useful on the first or second page. Example: d…

Art is whatever you get away with.

I use a combination of Meetup and LinkedIn, sometimes Telegram, Facebook or Twitter, and usually scout a couple of weeks to a month or so in advance. At these events I've met with …

I would be so happy if there were some sort of color coding to just be rid of the hassle of switching twice ("I'm sure it's this one, nopes, it's the other one").

I live in Stockholm, Sweden.

I've been working 100% remote as a contractor/gigger the last four years, with the exception of half a day/whole day stints at the clients office from time to time. It has been wor…

FWIW, one of the biggest fast food franchise chains in my country uses a custom Excel sheet as their main backoffice app across the organization. From what I can tell, it's far fro…

Follow the hustle porn. My empirical studies show 1/10. Most of them I see who makes a good living does so with repeated failures in their business history and new knowledge going …

While I think you are right in saying the salaries probably has gone up, I am very hesitant to believe that they are more than 25-30% higher. There were boatloads of devs coming ou…

As a former tech recruiter in Stockholm I can assure you that they do. These devs, however, usually do not have a degree from university/college, and are either juniors and/or self…
