EJB, Spring, Ant, Struts (I'm getting old - Like Hot Java Alpha 3 and Java applets old), maven, pom files, etc. I used to love Java but the complexity merchants showed up and ruine…

I am 22095 on GH but 213 on Sourceforge :-D I have a 5 digit user id on Slashdot as well (~20k mark if I recall).

This came out too close to April 1 for me to know if it was real or not :). I do like the idea of local/on device llms so it's interesting and will keep an eye on it.

It's purely personal, but my body really seems to prefer daylight savings. I always have very rough and fluctuating sleep schedules during the winter. They seem to go away after th…

If you read through the BBC post, it alludes to passing confidential trade documents to Epstein... but of course that's probably because he was being blackmailed by Epstein for f*c…

Is that per person or for the 5 people? No if per person if the minimum commit is 30 days (300/Night is not too bad, but for a week to 10 days at a time, not the month). If for all…

No, worries, I knew, I couldn't remember if it had the s or not... I'll have to look up the etymology.

Sorry, did I get it wrong? I only ever see it as onprem ;).

How about 'On Premise Micro Data Centre" :-p Doesn't quite role off the tongue though, not even a good acronym. Maybe Personal Data Centre (pdc)? There's some cross over with r/sel…
