I am pleased to announce that the latest version of Eve, v0.8, has been released.

I had this happen to me a few times already. Notification Center on the Mac goes completely numb: no more notifications and the list is empty.

So today I was trying to store some decimal fields on a MongoDB 3.4 instance and I kept failing, miserably. In Compass I was getting a somewhat obscure “connection lost” message on every save attempt. Upgrading to Mongo 3.4.10 (I was on 3.4.4) improved things, as the error message was now hinting at the setFeatureCompatibilityVersion setting which, apparently, was preventing some features to be made available. Now that made sense, as this specific database had been upgraded all the way from up Mongo 2. »

apologies, this post is about an Italian open source release, so it’s going to be in Italian Spesometro.NET è un nuovo progetto open source che ho rilasciato con la mia azienda. Si tratta di un package .NET che permette di leggere, scrivere e convalidare lo Spesometro o, come è chiamato formalmente, la Comunicazione delle Fatture Emesse e Ricevute. Si tratta di un adempimento che in tempi recenti, per ragioni che non è il caso di affrontare in questo articolo, ha causato grosse difficoltà sia ai fornitori di soluzioni software che, e soprattutto, agli utenti finali di dette soluzioni. »
