I just bought a little Dell box that I can use to host a server in my home to simplify my test & development (T&D) work. I’m using Delphi for programming, which is what I’m most familiar with, and there’s a tool I use that transpiles Delphi (Object Pascal) code into javascript so it runs in th

I know little about Docker. Thank you for the advice. I'm trying to keep things Simple Stupid. When I complete my project I will reveal why. In a prior email I stated I think things have become way too complicated. I am on a journey to reverse some of that. My target audience for my blog a

That's how it used to be, back when RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and CentOS were equal peers on the Software Development Lifecycle River. The "upstream" distro was Fedora, all the newest, most bleeding edge stuff. You could get and install CentOS and be (virtually) Bug-For-Bug compatible with R

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but my imprssion is that Ubuntu is mainly for desktop use, while CentOS is used by a vast number of commercial hosting companies for their hosting machines. Also, CentOS is basically a pre-configured Red Hat distro, while Ubuntu is GUI-oriented Debian distr
