And yet, heatpumps are very popular across Scandinavia. All my Norwegian friends and colleagues seem to use them, and those I've talked to about it say they work just fine - even airsource pumps when it's -20C!

That hasn't been my experience of it. I use it only rarely, maybe once every 3-4 weeks when I'm feeling particularly fatigued but must deliver. I always find it really beneficial, and often find myself in a flow state - which, now

I was thinking about networking ports from the title!

You say it's harmless, but are there any negative health effects? (I seem to recall reading nicotine can cause thinning of the arteries, or something like that)

Agreed. I drink coffee because I like the taste and the caffeine gives a little boost. I could be said to be dependant on caffeine, as I get withdrawal symptoms on cessation (headaches) - but I feel no compulsion to drink coffee, as there

I am, for a range of applications including web APIs and background workers. I've always favoured Linux for server apps (I used to deploy dotnet apps to Linux with Mono), but I also think Azure (and cloud in general) has, in a roundabo

For an anticipated title like this, I think they could have had the same box office figures if they spent zero on marketing. $100m is ridiculous.

Nice! Are there any limitations to be aware of?

Hmm, some of this sounds similar to how CFS/ME mechanisms are believed to work.

The drug wasn't dapsone, by chance? I only ask because I was left with CFS/ME and Small Fibre Neuropathy after a short dose of dapsone several years ago. If there's any new information about it, I'd like to hear about it

Isn't radiation from cosmic rays going to require very heavy shielding?

Did you follow a particular guide for how to do that? I remember trying a while back, when WSL2 was first released, and I couldn't get it to work; IIRC I couldn't get stuff running in Windows to communicate with stuff running in c

What specifically should I look for in 23andMe to find this please? I guess I should use the raw data explorer and enter SLC30A9, but what should I expect to see if I have this issue?

It really is a ridiculous metric. So ridiculous that you'd think it would never be used in reality... and yet, I have in the past actually had the CTO of a large engineering firm insist upon it.

I'm a greybeard you cheeky scamp ;) I very rarely used hints in my more database'y days - but every so often, they were needed, and often to tell the database something that seemed screamingly obvious to me. I'm not sure wher

In a perfect world, I wouldn't disagree; but we don't live in a perfect world where everything always goes your way. Sometimes the planner needs a little help, and that's OK.

I spent ten years on a software project, and 6 months after finishing it still hasn't made a single penny :( 10 years. I learned valuable lessons (like knowing when to stop!), but they were long, loooong lessons. I still haven't r

Same experience here, except half the time I visit the "duplicate" question, only to find it isn't a duplicate at all! In the last I've had several of my own questions closed as "duplicates", where it's

There's Widdershins plus Slate too. Widdershins turns the OpenAPI specs into markdown, then Slate into HTML. The results look really nice, and the use of templates means it's easy to customise. I'm just finishing my first pro

I saw a travel version of this recently, for use on airplanes, trains etc. Seems like a good idea (apart from folk reclining their seats mid-snooze), but they also seemed way too bulky to be useful for travelling. What I need is a truly por

I'm not sure if it was intended, but for some reason I read your comment as if it was a poem?!

Wow, disagree - I find that the sweet spot with a rack is very small, maybe 2-3 minutes. Outside of that, it's either too pink or overdone. Maybe it's just me :( For me, the easiest lamb cut to cook is shoulder - just throw it in
