3g modems in finland? Any plans for a month or one week?

-
Dear Lazy web,

Are there any 3G usb modem plans available in Finland that I can get for one week or a month? I'd need to buy the modem too.

Hopefully it should work two hours drive from Oulu.


Update: used a modem by Elisa. Worked well, even 3g. Closing comments because this post is getting spams every day - and blogger.com spam protection seems broken.

Thanks heaps for the great info :) ... I'll paste it in here in case someone else comes to this page one day through search.

"""Yes there is. I didn't find a webpage in English, but here is one operator page in finnish http://saunalahti.fi/prepaid/mobiililaajakaista.php

39 eur first month free, no transfer limit, usb modem included.

Basically what you want to do is find Elisa-shop or R-Kioski and you can get one of these. Other operators which might also provide similar service - but whose webpage didn't give straight answer - are Sonera and DNA, at least.

If you are going to use it away from cities, check out the operators signal strength map. This is for saunalahti (it uses Elisa network) http://www.elisa.fi/kuuluvuus/

Draft 3 of, ^Let's write a unit test!^

So, I started writing this for people who want to 'contribute' to Community projects, and also Free Libre or Open source projects. Maybe you'd like to get involved, but are unsure of where to begin? Follow along with this tutorial, and peek at the end in the "what is a git for?" section for explanations of what some of the words mean. Draft 1, 2018/07/18 - initial draft. Draft 2, 2019/11/04 - two full unit test examples, assertions, making a pull request, use python 3 unittest substring search, "good first issue" is a thing now. Started "What is a git for? Jargon" section. Draft 3, 2020/12/12 - default branch name is main. What's first? A test is first. A unit test is a piece of code which tests one thing works well in isolation from other parts of software. In this guide, I'm going to explain how to write one using the standard python unittest module, for the pygame game library. You can apply this advice to most python pr...

Is PostgreSQL good enough?

-

tldr; you can do jobs, queues, real time change feeds, time series, object store, document store, full text search with PostgreSQL. How to, pros/cons, rough performance and complexity levels are all discussed. Many sources and relevant documentation is linked to. Your database is first. But can PostgreSQL be second? Web/app projects these days often have many distributed parts. It's not uncommon for groups to use the right tool for the job. The right tools are often something like the choice below. Redis for queuing, and caching. Elastic Search for searching, and log stash. Influxdb or RRD for timeseries. S3 for an object store. PostgreSQL for relational data with constraints, and validation via schemas. Celery for job queues. Kafka for a buffer of queues or stream processing. Exception logging with PostgreSQL (perhaps using Sentry) KDB for low latency analytics on your column oriented data. Mongo/ZODB for storing documents JSON (or mangodb for /dev/null replacemen...

Contemporary C tooling for making higher quality C, faster or more safely. DRAFT 0 - 10/11/18,  DRAFT 1 - 9/16/19, 7:19 PM, I'm still working on this, but it's already useful and I'd like some feedback - so I decided to share it early. DRAFT 2 - 10/1/19, mostly additions to static analysis tools. DRAFT 3 - 10/4/19, updates on build systems, package management, and complexity analysis.  DRAFT 4 - 10/6/19, run time dynamic verification and instrumentation, sanitizers (asan/ubsan/etc), performance tools, static analyzers. DRAFT 5 - C interpreter(s).  DRAFT 6 - 11/6/19 , mention TermDebug vim,  more windows debugging tools, C drawing for intro. In 2001 or so people started using the phrase "Modern C++". So now that it's 2019, I guess we're in the post modern era? Anyway, this isn't a post about C++ code, but some of this information applies there too. No logo, but it's used everywhere. Welcome to the post modern era. S...
