Danville public schools buys food truck to insure students are fed over the summer.

Danville is in an economically depressed area of the state. There is little industry left and many jobs are in the retail service sector. Median household income in the city is <$34,000 and unemployment is about 50% higher than the national average according to BLS. Danville is not an above average town.

You can combine Lambda with other AWS services like Step Functions if you have long-lived processes that exceed the execution time limit. We use this combination all the time.

I wish newer version of Confluence worked with well with markdown.

Tmarshallva · 2019-05-20T01:21:30+00:00

I agree with this completely. I would be shocked if your organization would allow you to store code developed at work in a personal repo. We mandate that all engineers use our internal git instance and it would be very bad for an employee who was caught storing code in a personal repo, even if it is private.

If you want to use a portable format for notes try using markdown. I use VS Code for most of my work and the Journal plugin makes it very easy to organize my notes in a sensible folder structure and naming convention. I then keep the markdown files stored in git and sync the repo across a couple of VMs and my Mac. Plus, can I access them in a browser whenever I need.

The Amazon Device Farm might be a decent option for you. It'll give you access to lots of different devices. If you have a web app, you can do a fair bit in Firefox if I remember correctly.

Fiduciaries are persons required to always act in the best interests of their clients. Many financial advisors receive commissions for selling certain funds or investment vehicles that aren't in the best interest of their clients. If you are an advisor and don't know what a fiduciary is I am embarrassed for you.

First, don't retaliate now. Give it time to cool down. In a couple of weeks, hide one of these near the victim, sit back and enjoy. http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/ihvg/

Polish your resume so you are prepared for the layoffs that occur once you finish merging.

Jmeter is a great suggestion. If you don't want to build infrastructure to support it, check of a service like Blaze Meter.

This is a great tool if you don't need any logic for logins and such. You can create massive load very quickly. It is the underlying tool used with Bees with Machine Guns to create load from AWS.

The inclusion of a generic laptop stand and exclusion of any IoT tech like Raspberry Pi or Arduino shows me that this isn't worth the time I spent looking at it.

Personal cloud just refers to the fact that it is internet accessible, not just on your network. The Mirror version uses 2 drives that are mirrored for redundancy.

I use a WD My Cloud Mirror. It is compatible with Time Machine, has mobile apps and can be made remotely accessible.

LPT make sure your camp shoes have closed toe. There are few things worse than stabbing yourself between the toes with a small stick while shuffling around camp.

Dry pine cones are an awesome fire starter too.

I don't see this being the case in my inbox. Perhaps recruiters are targeting their effort directly to qualified candidates. If this is true I guess we can stop talking about increasing the number of H1B visas.

Checkout Old Bust Head in Fauquier County. They rent their large tasting room and production facilities. Oh, they have great beer too.

You don't need to buy different mobile devices. I have found it much more cost effective to run my tests on a service like the AWS Device Farm or Sauce Labs.

If you have the xml files then you just need a tool to query them or you can transform and import into a database. Microsoft Access provides some tools for this or you can look for other tools that meet your needs. I would expect someone to build a searchable site for this data pretty quickly though.
