I might be missing something but this doesn't seem like an insane amount of work.

We just have joined everything. If we split, it would be 50/50 but I'd probably end up giving her most of the stuff, I already find that we have way too much stuff as it is. I like the simplicity of it all even though it might not be advantageous financially for me.

Personally, I find that "fun money" is the easy part. We both splurge from time to time but it is reasonable for the most part. The hard part is the big shared expenses which you'll never be able to cover with "fun money" or it sucks to do alone (house renovations, cars, trips, entertainment etc.) for which 1 partner doesn't see the value of the shared expense.

BonitaSoft has an open source community edition.

I was surprised by the omission as well.

I've done a major rehaul on my house.

- Removal of mould in basement - Redid basement (plumbing + electrical) - Full foundation waterproofing + french drain - Full landscaping (asphalt, stone, sod) - Full reflooring (tile + wood) - Redid downstairs bathroom - Redid garage

My suggestions?

- Keep things as simple as possible. I can't count the times I ended up creating problems by trying to be clever. - Keep water out of the house. I would forego the basement completely and start from a concrete slab. - Build on solid ground (i.e. rock) if possible - Build on elevated ground with a good grade to keep the water away

The book “Hard Landing: The Epic Contest for Power and Profits That Plunged the Airlines into Chaos” provides a good overview of how these airline reservation systems came to be.

Breakfast: Oatmeal with eggwhites, low fat milk and fruits (banana, apple or frozen berries)

Pre-workout snack: Pineapple chunks + apple or banana

Post-Workout Snack: Low fat chocolate milk

Lunch: leftovers from last nights supper

Afternoon snack: low fat greek yogurt with frozen berries

Supper: Usually a combination of carbs (quinoa, brown rice or whole wheat noodles), meat (chicken, pork loin, fish, beef) and some veggies (avocado, tomatoes, cucumber, zuchini, peppers, carrots, onions)

Mid night snack: Bowl of cereal with low fat milk and frozen berries or apple with almond butter

Late night snack (if required): Banana

I sometimes supplement with almonds or dark chocolate at various times during the day when I feel hungry and I drink a lot of coffee and water.

I play hockey once a week and workout 3-4 times a week @ 45 mins a pop. Went from 167 lbs and 18.5 body fat % to 155 lbs and 12.4 body fat % in 2 months. I have ~1 cheat meal a week and drink some wine on Fridays and Saturdays as well as 1-2 post hockey game beers.

The new low-code solutions are still used by developers, just allows get to develop much faster without having to worry about UI and cross-platform compatibility and other time consuming things that take up time when building a custom app.

I'm afraid that the new generation of low code solutions are not just "form" builders or prototyping tools. We've built a full operational system and client facing portal using a low code solution.

Title is somewhat misleading. Seems like they are just discontinuing it as a standalone service and bundling it in with O365. That being said, not sure where they are going with this as I believe they are also building some sort of Slack competitor.

I would counter that being in the loop on everything adds a lot of noise and decreases your focus (because you have much more to look at) possibly making you less effective. Communication is hard.

Boring cars cost less to maintain.

Just like in software development, a framework/methodology is not a replacement for competence. People apply idioms blindly without putting things into context.

There are several factors at play. I believe one of them is MS Power BI catching up.

On one hand, I find that Rails often has security issues. On the other hand, perhaps it is just indicative of its popularity and interest. When a framework has no security issues, is it because there are none or is it just that no one can be bothered to look for some?

Being on Amazon in Canada may not help you depending on the outcome of this: http://europe.newsweek.com/does-us-warrant-apply-data-stored... (as mentioned by @axelfontaine below)

And the requirements pertaining to Canadian data actually staying in Canada are largely overblown: http://blog.privacylawyer.ca/2011/04/cloud-computing-and-pri...

It is related. Even though you are hosting data in Canada, the US government may still have access to the data via Amazon (because it is a U.S. based company) depending on the outcome of that case.

Canadian companies are not required to keep data in Canada - http://blog.privacylawyer.ca/2011/04/cloud-computing-and-pri...

Sweet! Been waiting a long time for this one :)

Not too sure what's special about this thing. I also wonder why people keep making DSLs to replace SQL. I was using iBatis back in 2005 (now called MyBatis - http://blog.mybatis.org/?m=1) and it worked great.

As a former Java/Spring developer from the mid-2000s trying to get back into the fold, I think Ruby on Rails is the best bet. It is not the latest and greatest and its a tad slow performance wise but what it lacks in speed it makes up in clarity. Especially on the documentation/tutorial front which makes for a quicker learning experience. I find the most interesting part of RoR is its "curated" (almost Microsoft like) environment where choices are mostly made for you instead of banging your head against the wall making choices about all the different libraries and tools you should use.

My favourite quote:

"The caveat is that it is technology that should be a tool making lives better in the real world, and in line with the American spirit of getting better and better at something, whether it’s curing cancer or creating a better taxi service. I am less impressed with the market values assigned to technology that enhances distraction."

Personally never quite got the appeal for EC2. You're basically replicating what you would be doing on physical servers anyway. The real productivity gains come from using a fully managed PaaS (Heroku, Azure Web Apps, Google App Engine, OpenShift etc.) where there is no maintenance and scaling and redundancy is taken care for you. Granted those are even more expensive but they are the only ones that provide any kind of value.

I've been playing around with different account arrangements for family sharing and it seems to work quite well so far, not too many glitches. I was expecting problems since I probably wasn't doing what the average user would do.

Similar to choosing a web framework, most often the issue is with the people, not the methodology/framework.

Impressive.

How is this different than Flyway?

Well I'm not sure about never. I'm sure it's going to happen someday, it's just going to take longer.

As for your 2nd comment, I thought I had covered that with: "But yeah, anywhere else it makes sense."

It'll be a while before it is cheaper than the hydro-electricity we generate here in Quebec.

But yeah, anywhere else it makes sense. Also wonder how cost effective it is in harsh climates where there is less sun.

I'm going to get downvoted into the abyss.

The only languages I would consider for an enterprise system in the most loved technologies would be C# and Python. The rest look good for startups, open source or hobby projects. When you build systems for the enterprise that need to be robust and live for years on end. It's hard to justify taking a risk with a newer language for which there is less expertise and less libraries.

Personally, I don't think I would have learned much if it wasn't for co-op. I paid my way through university and gained a lot of valuable experience that helped me land my first job.

Apple Photos would be great if they had more powerful family sharing. My dream is to have the family photo collection on all devices (iPhone, iPad, MacBook) that we can both curate.

Adobe Creative Cloud seems to support 1 collection with 2 people accessing it. Apple Photos is less expensive though, comes out to $5 a month for both of us (20GB + 200GB) vs the 10$ a month for the Lightroom.
