I recently invested in yet another Raspberry Pi , this time the new Raspberry Pi Zero W, which has wireless and bluetooth. I also made a leap and bought the camera module with it because the new official case by Raspberry Pi has a camera attachment. Probably the most popular development technology for Raspberry Pi is Python, but I am not a fan at all.

There is this great article about how Kotaku made a post about clever tricks used by game developers and how a number of developers criticized it. Why bother making a post explaining something so basic? Who cares? Apparently lots of people did. What one person considers basic is actually quite clever and interesting to another. Why would anyone want to mock a person’s curiosity?

I recently visited a customer onsite and presented to them topics on SQL Server 2016. After the talk, I opened up the floor for the audience to ask me questions.

When I run the RESTORE the progress shows 100% but the restore is not complete and takes longer to actually finished.

When developing an application with the Go programming language, you might find yourself needing to save data locally. If you’ve been keeping up you’ll remember that I’ve written about storing data remotely with Golang in a Couchbase NoSQL database , but never anything locally. Probably the easiest way to store data locally is with a SQLite database as it is a solid technology that has been around for a while.
