watching from abroad it seems that keir has got no incentive or menace to make him go more to the left, which means he won't do it and sees this victory as a reward to his positions. meanwhile tory tactics of incorporating farage's discourse has finally broke down, and the votes they made out of it have returned to their rightful (pun intended) owner. libdems did their homework. sad for the snp and well deserved for the dup.

the first contact i had with linux back in mid-90's brazil was with my isp's login terminal, which displayed some arcane text reading "red hat linux version x.x". after that, during my father's final years working in bank of brazil he had to deal with cobra's homemade distro in his workstations (cobra had developed an unix in the 80s that run on m68k's, so no surprises here). it was an absolutely esoteric system to those who only knew the dos/windows 3.11 duo, since w95 only arrived in our country in numbers only in 96. the thing really caught on during the early to mid-2000's, with faster and cheaper adsl connections, and with them, abundant knowledge and downloads available to any script kid.

i'd have problems with that pic even if it was some sort of stalag kink.

they remained on dell, but have willingly forgone the oportunity of progressing in their career within the company in order to remain at home. some are even looking for other jobs in organizations that don't whip them back into offices.

My biggest concern over .NET is exactly how closed Microsoft-land can be. For what I've seen so far, with the notable exception of perhaps Unity, pretty much everything else gravitates around MS and there's no way of leaving it.

I'm in the course of pursuing a change in my career towards software engineering/architecture. So far I've been brought mostly to C#/.NET and Java, though Java attracts me more, even considering that it might be a "dying" language. Still, Scala and Clojure are there, so I thought that they might give a pump at least to JVMs. In your opinion, should I invest in pursuing certifications/jobs in this field, or sticking to C#/.NET is a better path?

how do you compile code with gnu parallel? i mean, i'm really ignorant on parallel and at first glance it seemed that there's no way of compiling separate chunks of code with it.

New language promises to reduce compilation times by using all threads and gpu cores available on your machine. What's your opinions on it so far?

Right, so this is the situation: I still haven't obtained my license here in Brazil, but I already have a Baofeng DR-1801 HT that can connect to dmr networks. Therefore I haven't transmitted yet. But I'd like to clarify some doubts:

  • When I get my license, even in C-class in Brazil, I will be allowed access to some frequencies in 40-10m bands. Should I get a low power QRP transceiver (e.g. uSDX) or go for an used rig from known brands?
  • It's almost impossible to find a transceiver project with a power rating greater than 10w. What would be the difficulty of, say, copylefting the schematics of an ft-7b?
  • Can I really use a wire thrown over my house (of course, with baluns and stuff) as a monopole antenna or that's just myth?
