If you are looking at alternative keyboards, I have been using the TypeMatrix 2030[0] with a transparent cover for about 10 years. I am using the Dvorak layout, but I think that the main reason it is so comfortable to use is the ortho-linea

For the Doubs, this is well-known that it is losing water under its bed and that the Loue river is this water coming out at a different point. You can see the source of the Loue[0] on the Wikipedia page. The river is basically coming out of

Glad it helped you! In my case, as I was already exposed to the concept of being in the flow[0] while coding and the basic rule of reserving the biggest chunk of time to my most long term or important work in my day, it was a waste of time.

Deep Work is maybe the first book I wanted to through out of the window in a long time. The complete book can be resumed in a sentence: "Secure big chunks of time to reach and be in the flow state". But of course you cannot writ

Note that it is because Germany has the highest percent of part-time jobs, especially poor jobs or the mother in a family. The system is built in a way that it is hard to have two real full-time jobs in a family. It works pretty well in the

But in the US, kids below 15 are not counted, this means that the population is artificially set at 80% of its real number. These PPP income are pretty hard to compare. You have so much local variability within a country that you can only r

Yes, the react front-end is the interactive view so to speak. In my first comment, you have link to some videos where it shows the interface and you do not need to be a genius to see the HTML look of the interface.

I have been developing in HTML/Python for a while now. This works wonderfully. You just need to put all your business logic in Python, use PyQt to run all the platform specific code like file dialogs, printing, etc. but keep the main i

This looks like a very well done project. If you are more a traditional software kind of person, I recommend heavily KMyMoney[0]. I have my full family accounting since 2007 in it (every single income/expense) and it works flawlessly a

I am sorry, yes, WE means weekend. I am French living in Germany and this is part of the "continental" way of writing. Even in Denmark where I stayed a couple of years it was used all the time.

I just hope they will not start to have an internal branch and slowly stop pushing improvements back into the mainline. This is the only point where the Apache license change could negatively affect all the users.

It is making one mistake, it is parsing and scraping in the same loop. You should pull the data, store them and have another process accessing the data store and perform the parsing and understanding of the data. A "quick" parsing

For the CUDA part I cannot tell, but Numba is also compiling on the fly your Python code into machine code using LLVM. This where it shines. For example, instead of pushing your code into Cython or a Fortran library, you can keep writing in

At this level, not at all. 3 stars means that every single serving is perfect by itself, the quality of the ingredients, the texture, the taste. Everything. You cannot allow yourself to not be perfect. For example, you cannot serve somethin

The most terrific part is that Turks outside of Turkey (here in Germany) are now censuring themselves as they are afraid to be monitored and as a result be arrested when going to Turkey for vacations and visiting family.

For the particular case I had in mind it was around 170k€, but in the Rhein/Ruhr Region, you can easily get 100k compensation for good chemical engineers with experience with very good work conditions.
