Best of luck for the campaign. Judging by how much dust I regularly have to clean from my case meshes (we have a dog and clothes are often hanging to dry in my office) I would probably never buy an open case but they look kinda neat. Lookwi

You are right, however if it would have been made free and kept free indefinitely this would have been a one-time cost.

When I was still in school about a decade ago an exchange student from the US was flabbergasted at our gas prices when she found out that the signs at the gas station would display the prices in €/l and not €/gallon. Quick googlin

I would argue making it free and keeping it free would have been a cool move. - Less/no expensive accounting - Less/no personnel for checking tickets - Less/no personnel for prosecuting people who don't have tickets - Le

When I talked to my parents they told me most of their peers would pay off their mortgage within 20 years but maybe times changed, I don't know the data on that. I am 30 now and I have trouble imagining being in debt for a time equival

It's pretty much the same for anything around the city of hamburg in the north and most of the time it's less about the houses and more about the land they sit on. Building got more expensive but land even more so. 1.000 EUR/

To add to the list: Coming from the web and being used to having a ton of control how every thing looks I found that customizing elements sometimes have surprising limitations in SwiftUI. Also be wary of trying anything UX wise which is non

This is crazy cool! I wonder how these miniscule and thin lead sleeves are produced and how they manage to stay within tolerance and even get a rounded edge.

Quite a few years ago I worked on a particle in cell simulation software during my bachelor thesis[0]. We used numba to accelerate the code and most importantly write GPU kernels for the heavy parts. I remember spending hours optimising my

About 3 months ago I got my feet wet and fiddled around with it for a bit. Eventually I used it to deploy(using deno deploy) a small script which would forward calls to an unofficial API of some App. It turned out chrome would not let me se

Growing up with a specific, media influenced vision of VR(Ghost in the shell, .hack, sword art online) where lots of of the current technical challenges to create something truly immersive are solved, I really want VR to succeed. I got to t

I'll happily talk about it with everyone who'd like to know. Also I firmly believe I am overpaid (as a freelance software engineer in germany) compared to people in other fields such as for example social workers or most hospital

I switched from xubuntu to pop about two months ago and generally have a good time using it. I like the tiling wm and had to configure very little and except for the crappy WiFi stick everything worked out of the box. Being the idiot that I

I've always wanted to try getting into iot and see if I can set up a small network of sensors each attached to one of these tiny low power boards and see if I could operate them using some sort of energy harvesting so they'd be mo

Interesting technology. Is everyone using it? And if not (I recall tsv being used a lot) then why? The wiki entry paints a very positive picture here.

Yep, that's correct. And no they don't most of the time. Investigations about this are rare apparently and also only working for one customer in that capacity at a time is not really an indication of pseudo self-employment or tax

Over the last 8 months I had 158 billable hours on average per month. I get about one to four calls per month offering projects (full time, 3-6+ months) in my city or fully remote at that rate without doing any active marketing. I just have

I'd like to offer a german perspective on this. I've been a freelancer (webdev) for about 1.5 years now (about 3 years of experience) and this is how that calculation would look here: Employed at 100k Euro, no kids, not married: -

To be honest this is the best selling point in my opinion. It's a great tool for MVP scenarios and especially in business contexts that price tag is entire negligible compared to the hourly rate of most engineers! So a single hour save

I am sometimes ashamed about my choice really since it seems like taking the easy route instead of pursuing something more meaningful. But almost 4 times the net income and a lot less anxiety and pressure are hella compelling when you want

I am a little rusty on this but rotations around the z axis on a Bloch sphere can be implemented by either detuning the qubit frequency with respect to the drive field(real z gate) or as a composition of X and Y gates when introducing a pha

I am a webdev nowadays but a physicist by trade and wrote my master thesis on quantum circuit synthesis using machine learning about 2.5 years ago. Whenever I see quantum computing news come up here I kind of want to get back into the field

Thanks for your perspective! I had no idea the stock compensation was THAT high. Sheesh I might want to reconsider my current situation! Btw, I should probably not post this but we share the exact same name and work in the same field. :D

I mean even in germany it's not easy. The average salary of a SE here is about 65k before taxes. Most senior engineers I met make about 80-85k before taxes (~50k after taxes) (I am located in hamburg). Even for well booked freelancers

This made me chuckle. Is there a table anywhere with a lot of promising contenders as columns and those criteria as rows (or that transposed)?

Yes. I went to therapy for a while and my therapist tried it with me and it felt beneficial. Not that my anxiety went away but I lessened notably which to be honest surprised me. After doing it in two consecutive sessions she told me I can

Used to have panic attacks and constant anxiety (without knowing what they are and what was wrong with me) every day for about 2 years triggered by a bad cannabis experience . Turned out I was predespositioned and it runs in my dads family.
