You can sign up for free on most servers. I think tchncs.de has video and audio conferencing enabled if you want to try that out.

Teams is sort of a drag though. Very resource intensive for what it does. But if everyone in your company has ram and CPU to spare, it’s mostly painless.

Pascal is so awful. Damn, I wish it was dead.

In C too*.

*for certain compilers, that is.

Cool, thanks for explaining! I take it they don’t work that well on WINE either?

[–] Colloidal@programming.dev 2 points 2 days ago

No they don’t.

It’sa tentative anti AI scrapping measure.

I’m clueless as to why one would want either. Running old hardware peripherals?

I had just graduated, fresh engineer and super happy I landed a pretty good starting engineering job in a great company. I was quite lucky. Engineers dropping like flies, becoming taxi drivers, or whatever they could find to sustain their families. All investments everywhere were dwindling. Thankfully oil prices were high regionally so some remained.

I’m sure it would. But in many languages a double negative just reinforces the negative. Hence the question.

I don’t want Mozilla to be handling my personal data in any way. Anonymized usage statistics? I could be convinced to relinquish that. But that’s it.

This looks interesting, but it would work so much better as a written article to me.

 

It's pages and pages of this. Maybe you want to restrict who can log in and create repositories.

 

I’m versed enough in SQL and RDBMS that I can put things in the third normal form with relative ease. But the meta seems to be NoSQL. Backends often don’t even provide a SQL interface.

So, as far as I know, NoSQL is essentially a collection of files, usually JSON, paired with some querying capacity.

  1. What problem is it trying to solve?
  2. What advantages over traditional RDBMS?
  3. Where are its weaknesses?
  4. Can I make queries with complex WHERE clauses?
