Same. People age quite differently. I didn't start puberty until I was 16. I didn't get attracted to girls until I was 17. Much later than my friends.

I got a job at a pizza shop when I was 20, and I made friends with the 15+16yo employees there, I got along much better with them than people my own age. I can see how that's was potentially creepy, looking back on it, but it seemed normal enough at the time, those people were my good friends.

I matured very slowly. I didn't graduate uni until I was 29. I'm now 39, physically I look like I'm 30, mentally and psychologically I feel like I'm 30.

As others have said, tidying and cleaning are quite different things. Most cleaners will come to do the latter. If your house is untidy, it makes their job harder.

You can get a person in to tidy up for you, but it's usually a different person than the cleaner, and that requires much more input from yourself "Where does this go? Where do you want this? Do these clothes need to be folded or washed? Is this trash or not?".

Anyway. Yes I've definitely been guilty of tidying the whole house before our cleaner comes.

Ah, you mean a Deutschkompoundenwordkopf.

I've used many calipers with a vernier scale, but for some reason I've never seen the use of slots like this to simplify and highlight the reading. It's actually a very obvious thing now I've seen it. Are there any commercial calipers that have it?

I had one too. Besides the screen resolution, the actual worst thing about them was the MMC storage. Literally slower than a 5400rpm HDD. Mine was the one with the slightly faster atom CPU, but it was bottlenecked by the crazy slow storage.

I've done something like this before, but thankfully it only impacted services that I host for my own use, didn't affect any family and friends.

Btw, I've found the easiest (but not the cheapest) way to fix this is to simply buy bigger disks. Swap out each disk for a bigger one one-by-one, then resize the whole volume to fill the new disks. Resizing upwards is much faster than shrinking a volume.

I've never had a volume shrink operation work without errors, and yes it takes days if you have more than 4TB.

Chlorine is nature's soap.

Yeah, I'm not proud, I needed to google it to get past that bit too on my first playthrough. It seems like this was one thing they didn't add any in-game hints for.

Yeah.. but why? Kate is better in about every way. And while we're on the topic, Kate is also available on the windows store, with a real Windows build.

On windows: Notepad++. On Linux-based OS: Kate. And there's also JetBrains Fleet, that is jetbrains answer to vscode.

I noticed the same thing, and you could see it a bit in this (OP) video too.

I think this one is partly regional and partly traditional.

Destin probably always called his father sir, and he probably has the same expectation of his children.

Do they act to maintain the sock's grip on our plane of existence?

 

Firstly, I need to mention I'm coming back to .Net for the first time in more than 10 years. Last time I used .Net was on a very old .Net Framework 4 ASP.NET commercial fast food ordering application in 2013. Since then I've been working with Environmental Scientists, researchers, and academics, using exclusively Python (Django, Flask, FastAPI, etc) for the last 10 years.

This new project I'm tasked with is a custom content publishing platform, so my first thought is obviously a CMS for the content. I feel that Headless CMS products are the go-to these days, and that fits well with our needs because it is the authoring/admin side that the customer is most interested in. The frontend, or "content consumption" side of things is a custom scientific data visualizer we are building in parallel.

My team has been given a MS Azure Cloud subscription to use, and we want to take advantage of as many "cloud-native" approaches as we can. Eg, using Azure Active Directory (AAD) for SSO, using Azure Blob storage for files, Azure SQL for DB, etc. For that reason, we have decided to use .Net to develop this CMS (plus, one of my guys has 5 years experience in .Net, so we don't want that to go to waste).

There are so many free open-source .Net CMS projects floating around that it should be pretty easy to pick one to use as a base to build upon. But it is proving to be a bit harder to choose than I thought. This is the wish list we are looking for:

  • Free and Open-Source, with permissive licence
  • Self-hosted, ie. not a SaaS
  • Cross-platform, with dotNet6 or dotNet7
  • Needs custom entity types, and entity type instances (we are publishing data types, not Posts and Pages).
  • Customizable content authoring pages for the custom entity types
  • Admin UI written in VueJS or ReactJS
  • Access the content via an Open API
  • Integration with AAD SSO (and bonus if we can use any SAML or OAuth or OIDC Auth)
  • Different user roles (Admin, Author, Reviewer)
  • Use other cloud-native integrations where possible
  • Workflow steps (Draft, Submit, Review, Approve, Publish, Revoke, etc)
  • Content versioning, change tracking
  • Activity auditing

I know this is a pipedream to find one tool that could do all of that out of the box. Back in my Uni days I would have immediately reached for Drupal, but that is PHP, we prefer to not use that anymore. I thought I found the perfect tool when I came across Cofoundry, it ticks a surprisingly large number of those wishlist boxes. The main reasons I am hesitant to go with Cofoundry are:

  • It is a project from 2017. It has continued to be updated, but not very often since 2018. It was ported from .Net Core to dotNet6 back in 2021, but nothing since then.
  • It uses Angular 1 for the JS side of the admin pages (not even Angular 2!)
  • They are very tightly tied into using MS SQL Server for the db with a bunch of custom MS TSQL stored procedures, and using other MS SQL Server-specific features.

I've looked at a bunch of others, but they tend to fall into the camp of SaaS offerings that are focused on publishing Posts and Pages, and not much else, or others that are hobby projects with low user base, and haven't been updated in the last 4 years.

Is there anything I'm missing? I'm looking for something a lot like Cofoundry, but more up to date, not so tightly tied to MSSQL Server, and uses ReactJS or VueJS for the Admin/Authoring pages.
