"The good news is that Europe is also leading the way in greenhouse gas emission mitigation efforts." Europe is leading the effort despite doing a shit job. How is that good news?

With a line, in the worst case you have to travel 170km. With a circle, in the worst case you have to travel 85km. That's it.

I originally thought that programming on phones was ridiculous, but then I remembered that I did a great deal of programming on TI calculators when I was a kid.

They aren't making online mode by pleasure: it's much harder to make than offline single player. Piracy (no need to put it in quotes) is 100% to blame.

With replay-based saving, if you want to load a game that has 30 minutes worth of progress, you have to replay 30 minutes worth of gameplay! what a gigantic waste! In other words, as usual it's all about tradeoffs.

For fun I did with Horizon Workrooms, and it was quite the mind blowing experience. My laptop's screen was streamed to the headset and looked larger than IRL. I was sitting on my couch in my living room, and noticed an unexpected benef

I'm with you. At Thales (big french tech company), AFAIU there's essentially no way of reaching 60kEUR/year without becoming a manager. And even then, reaching 100K requires climbing a lot more levels.

The idea is clever because it does not require retrofitting the existing fleet, and it works because it can be done incrementally. You can for example start with 1 tug boat that would shave off 200km of fuel usage.

> slow to compile In my experience it's the slowest language to compile ever , and the binaries generated are gargantuan. I was super excited to learn Rust, but that excitement is now 100% gone.

Good luck shipping a binary for iOS from your own website :-) That's doable on Android, though security sensitive people won't install a random APK found on the web. And signing a binary on windows is doable, but rather expensive.
