   My company uses Confluence (NOT self hosted) and it regularly takes 10s or more to load a page on a 400Mbit connection. Text content only, no diagrams. Confluence is a joke

   Hmmm yep, that is interesting. I am going down a similar route, but by replacing my phone with something that will become my primary computing device (either a pi-based cyberdeck, or something like the librem5). I want to effectively just c

   I live in Berlin atm, and spend a not insignificant amount of time in Italy. Honestly it will depend on you and what you want to get out of it. I'd go for somewhere with jobs appropriate for your skills/qualifications and also for

   Thanks! Actually wikipedia has already a geolocate param in the mediawiki API, and many articles have associated GPS coords. A rather grim one I found in Sicily last year was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alitalia_Fligh

    I built mirrorspace.net (beta up at https://app.mirrorspace.net/ ) which is a "mirror space" i.e. a virtual layer ontop of our normal physical space. Users can browse nearby landmarks (currently based on geolookup

    I think the real reason is even more nefarious - by making this change they are dissuading expats from coming back at all. Why come back and use up a quarantine slot when you know you'll have trouble leaving again. Better just skip Chr

    Since leaving Australia (and started living in Europe) I have come to the conclusion that Australia is not a "real" country - it is just a continent owned by corporate interests that happens to also have people living on it. Corpo

    The article states that they already had to prove they were exempt. However as I have not personally gone through this I am not in a position to comment on the accuracy of this statement. But from what I know of Australian bureaucracy, like

    It's all about control. Sadly people I still talk to down there think it's for their own good. I'm ranting but the government is extremely corrupt and just obviously incompetent. And that's not even related to the litera

    This is just for an accelerator program, do you seriously think that a startup that develops something meaningful from this seed captial will not get the full force of NATO's budget shoved into it?
