  @guyinpv said in Top 10 Advantages of Using Wordpress for Website Development: It's ok to not try and convince me how "powerful" WP is, I'm aware of how it works, I've laid out many points already. I'm painfully aware of its problems, for 10+ years now. Instead of being frustrated, send all these customers my way. I'd love to handle all this stuff, we do WP all the time and while any product will have problems when abused, that's our job to fix it and manage it for people who obviously can't do it themselves (which often includes their bad IT people.) Whether you see WP as great and these things as not problems, or you see them as frustrating but good business opportunities, as an IT firm that does WP hosting, design, and support, we would be thrilled to take this problem off of your hands. No need to feel like it's a bad thing.

  In that original thread, I never caught this before, he also said: Most of you have never even setup a printer to print through word and mail merge so that when a letter is printed it prints the envelope, pulls from tray 1 for Company Letterhead and prints the rest from tray 2 and collates them. This is not easy to google so let me here the steps if you can do this. In my experience it's always the biggest idiots on the planet who make assumptions about what someone can and cannot do as a means to measure knowledge or ability. Suggesting someone has almost certainly never setup a printer scenario in such an asinine way and as though that's bragging rights of some sort is sort of like when someone told me that I [thinking I was a different person than I really was] wasn't capable playing Sweet Home Alabama on the guitar... three times, and each time more indignant. This was a case of a genuinely stupid person.

  @StorageNinja said in MongoDB Major Change to Licensing: @scottalanmiller said in MongoDB Major Change to Licensing: if you are a SaaS vendor looking at building software that uses MongoDB somewhere, you'd better get a lawyer looking over this license and how it applies to you. This is becoming a bigger issue as the biggest SaaS vendors hide behind this clause more and more with incredibly proprietary forks. They offer very little to no actual core development or contribution and it goes against the previous method of GPL code getting funding. It annoys me, as the legal headaches of contributing internal only use code back will block some companies from using OSS, but I see it both ways. The startups who are doing a lot of the core housekeeping of NOSQL platforms are learning they can't find a business model. This is getting messier and messier. Partially because there are just too any vendors involved. What's amazing, though, is that a move like this took a customer who was very into MongoDB and using it in projects and was literally working with MongoDB's own hosted product and now looking to avoid it like the plague. So at least in this one case, they are likely losing hosted product from this. And gaining nothing. I imagine a lot of customers going through this same process.

  @alimrahimi said in FreePBX outbound call: @JaredBusch Hi Jared, I am using Fusion PBX, So you're thinking there is a possibility to limit them calling few phone number? Yes. In FrePBX it is a basic outbound call routing function. A quick google on these words for FusionPBX resulted in this. https://www.google.com/search?q=fusionpbx+outbound+route https://docs.fusionpbx.com/en/latest/dialplan/outbound_routes.html#

  VMs make sense to me. Whether you do this on the desktop with VirtualBox or a server with KVM or LXC, whatever works. But you don't want a million versions of things installed onto ap hysical box and the pain of things interacting while you test.

  Worth noting that this was recording some time ago. Now Microsoft's new development platform, Visual Studio Code, has C# and F# support, but support for VB.NET has been dropped in it. This is the first time that MS has actively started to remove VB support from part of its ecosystem. Traditionally it was just kept on the back burner or given as an "extra" example. But now, for the first time, it is actually being left out.

  @nerdydad said in MSBuild OpenSourced and Available on Linux Systems: So do you see MS leaving the OS market altogether and go solely into IDEs? Building development systems, yes. This has been the general analysis expectation of MS for years. OSes have never been their strong suit. Their strength has always been development tools and applications. They started as a BASIC programming company before they bought their first OS to sell. They didn't even make an OS of their own for over a decade. Their DOS/Windows era was an OS they bought and resold with, eventually, their own graphical environment on top. Windows NT 3.1 was their first fully in house OS, and that was even partially done by IBM.

Don't bog the editor down with stuff like that. Literally hundreds of apps that will do voice communications better then this. I can guarantee they'll be using Skype as a backend. Atom would not have access to Skype. My mistake I thought it was the VS Live we were talking about.

Very affordable and no issues Also new on Vultr (DO during 5 years!), you can add any iso you want, and make tons fo snapshots for immediate recovery if issue, price is lower compared to DO, are specifications are better for same price! That was a major feature that drove a lot of people over there initially.
