Yesterday I was on a bus! Yes, a bus! I don't get to ride buses so often due to the working from home lyfe, but I took the opportunity to write some simple code (as I used to do on buses in the past... i even gave a talk about it once , when alt.net was a thing.) And the thing I coded on the bus was a html quine. Go and see this html quine It's... different? A quine is a program that produces, as output, its own source code...

If there is anything like a silver bullet for creating meaningful and actionable alerts with a high signal-to-noise ratio, it is alerting based on service-level objectives (SLOs). Fulfilling a well-defined SLO is the very definition of meeting your users’ expectations. Conversely, a certain level of service errors is OK as long as you stay within the SLO — in other words, if the SLO grants you an error budget. Burning through this error bud..

IT’s role in the enterprise is rapidly shifting; from being a provider of commoditized solutions to becoming the core of modern businesses. As a result, many established companies are still struggling to organize their engineering and product development teams effectively around the things they’re building.

Over the years we wrote a lot of demos for Codename One as well as a lot of test cases. This can get painful after a few dozen projects each of which with their own version of the JARs and build script. To solve this never ending need to organize samples Steve introduced a new samples folder into the open source project. This makes it easy to build/run samples if you’re command line inclined. All you need is an install of Java and Ant to ..

Open layouts are the worst. They make literally no sense at all. Why do our employers feel compelled to make us work in a zoo-like environment? How are we supposed to get any valuable work done? An open space is only as quiet as the least quiet person at any given moment. This essentially means that it’s noisy all the time. In addition to the audio pollution, visual noise is also everywhere.

The "backspace" key on the keyboard should delete the last character you typed

I hate when pressing the “backspace” key on the keyboard a certain number of times doesn’t wipe out that number of previous keystrokes. For example, on Mac, if you press the spacebar twice then press backspace key twice you end up with one space. (As Apple inserts a period when you type space twice, so there are now three characters to delete.) Or on Chrome, when typing in the URL bar, pressing the backspace key removes the auto-suggest..

Robotic process automation (RPA) is no different: to its boosters, it paves the way for digital transformation; for others, RPA is just the latest overhyped tech that, in the long term, promises to cause more problems than it solves. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle.

In part one , he shows just how little work it takes to steal personal information from unsuspecting users at a cafe. His second article explains some of the reasons that took so little work, as well as a few ways to fix them. Part three outlines concrete steps the average internet user can take to make themselves less suscept..

Sometimes the DNS for a specific domain on your machine needs to point somewhere else – at Curalate, we test changes microservices locally before shipping them, which could require redirecting requests to look at that local instance. One way to do this is by adding an entry like 127.0.0.1 some.service.curalate.com to /etc/hosts. Why use a hosts file manager? In most cases, it’s not advised to directly modify /etc/hosts. Because it’s burie....
