> a serverless solution > I wanted to move all those functions on a server in my LAN. Not so "serverless" after all eh?

I'm getting so annoyed at companies requiring a phone number and then forcing MFA on me with it. If you're going to force MFA on users give them another option besides receiving a …

CodeQL comes with a bunch of pre-configured queries for the language you're using (at least when running on Github enterprise)

CodeQL will do this for some languages, the kind of bugs I've seen it identify have been pretty impressive, I'm sure there are some other static analyzers that can do this as well.…

I don't know why someone would want to waste time arguing about code style. Standardizing on things like `cargo fmt`, `go fmt`, and `terraform fmt` remove a ton of nitpicking out t…

I see the business befit in serverless in a lot of ways but I don't think its necessarily a good thing for developers, its a good thing for business in some cases but its highly pr…

I'm considering holding out for the Mudita: https://mudita.com/ Though I like Lightphone's aesthetic more.

> I don’t even want to mention the crap cake that is KaiOS... Oh please do, its absolutely horrid. How are they even keeping up with Firefox security updates? The only conclusion I…

I second this, "google's problems are not your problems"

I came to mention this exact issue. I've seen this trip up people in the past, in one case a CI/CD system running Linux was used to produce a project deployed to a mostly windows e…

Double down on your strongest skill (sounds like Python) brush up on some of the changes (e.g. Python 3isms) and find a role where you can use it, all the new shiny stuff can come …

no update since August 31, 2016 seems pretty dead, though I guess there is someone around to renew the domain name, etc.

NetBSD has an active port (though "active" for NetBSD is not as "active" as other projects, but it still builds and runs): http://wiki.netbsd.org/ports/sh3/ Aside from the Dreamcas…

> MySQL has the whole 'worse is better' thing going for it. I've used both MySQL and PostgreSQL and I prefer MySQL, it seems to work and scale better "out of the box" and has a mor…

Other comments have mentioned my usual go-tos, but to add one more to the list: https://www.sparkfun.com/

LOL

What is the deal with banks being actively hostile to password managers? One bank specifically I have to deal with will: - Not allow you to paste a username/password (ctr+c/ctrl+v,…

Much love for processing! Back when I was starting school and learning programming I also picked up an Arduino Duemilanove and learned Wiring and Processing which went together lik…

Update: protocol buffers look more promising than I initially gave it credit and there is a Rust implementation.

I glossed over it early on as it didn't support mention Rust support, it also seemed to be for a different use case than I was targeting but I'll give it another look. Thanks for t…

I would like to generate constants (and ideally enums) from a single source into multiple languages so that I don't need to maintain multiple definitions. I'd like to support at le…

This is why I will never install an npm module with sudo or globally with -g You can get around that requirement by having a specific location set aside for global modules (I use ~…

This is the first of its kind I recall seeing in GovCloud (customer for a few years now), but given their clientele I wouldn't be surprised if its very high priority.

It's not a "private" key if its shared. Only the end user needs to know the private key details. Consider the usecase of generating a user their initial password for a service, thi…
