To go quite a bit off topic. The author says that he starts with a single html file and splits it or incrementally adds stuff when needed. That course of action has proven to be a really bad idea on every non trivial web project I worked o

Really badly. Fog quickly dissipates the laser beam. It is basically impossible to shoot through a cloud to hit a target behind it.

Scams and fraud are just a part of human live. Look at old advertising and all the literal snake oil that used to be sold. I think it is jus the internets effect to make everything more discoverable and new schemes enabled by new technology

No sure what the purpose of this really is. But the pricing seems bizzare. Hetzner cloud costs 1€ per extra TB (20 included) while this costs 2$ per Gb. That is an order of magnitude so what am I paying for?

Loosely related: The German name of Magpie is Elster. They are known for liking and 'acquiring' shiny things like coins. The German online portal for tax declaration is called Elster as well. Apparently it stands for ELektronische

I gave up thinking about working live of SSDs. While I know that SSDs will die eventually, this has yet to happen to any of my private drives. Some of my drives are over 10 years old and still work something unheard of when it comes to rota

For me the third level does not load on the web version. The ship just gets stuck on the end of lvl 2.

I had one when i was 6 or so. While it was somewhat fun it was best in combination with a cassette deck to record the random noise to make an even worse cacophony. I learned nothing from it and at some point it disappeared, probably due to

I disagree and would say DSLs should go away if possible. DSLs like SQL are the norm and you can see the problem of them in basically every project. You either use ORMs or you end up hand rolling SQL rows into Structs or Classes. The whole

That is used in competitive as well (usually a single depot or turrets) to mess up the path finding. Or as sim city where the whole base is designed to block paths or mess up the ai so that it funnels trough choke points. Destroying buildin

It is totally feasible. I never had Facebook or Twitter and the likes and a know many people who stay away as well. A friend of mine does not even have a phone, i meet him regularly, he has a job in IT and does just fine. The Family has a G

Yep. I have not seen a picture of the filler but they said its the cheapest sand they could get (probably even free). So i assume it is mostly rocks and gravel anyway. Not sure about the math here, but it is surely cheaper to build a bigger

Don't confuse heat capacity with conductivity. And the air is blown through pipes in the sand, which means you need something which will easily surround the pipes. Solid materials would suffer from thermal expansion problems (like crac

Not for everyone. We develop software for others and most of our customers have staging access. So they can see development happening, can check or approve changes or can see if the api change they made breaks anything. They are usually ver

Yeah it is one of those cases of 'someday i will use it for something else'. Maybe a Pi-Hole and or file server. Too sad that its performance is just quite not there for 4k video (on the other hand it is amazing that it works at a

While a Pi can be used to browse the internet a bit and write some text, i would not want to endure the low performance for anything even slightly more heavy weight. I absolutely hate to wait for slow compile times, long startup times, slo

Apart from health issues of sweeteners or sugar. I really hate the taste of every single one of the artificial sweeteners. The aftertaste lingers forever with its weird notes of wet cardboard and a chemical set for schoolchildren (don'

Me neither and i wonder why. There really should be no reason. I had to throw away many perfectly good power supplies when upgrading the graphics cards because they had not enough pins. So i would count out economic reasons. Many 3d Printer

Maybe they should start to amp up the voltage. Since those cards already have dedicated power connectors why not have 24 or even 48 volt lines?

Having super quick evolution cycles, could it be that insects evolved to avoid roads? I remember the story of a species of moths living in German industrial cities. These were normally brown like tree bark but evolved to look like sooty bri

Not sure, but could be true if you look at the antics of Faeser and her bizarre ideas of general surveillance, backdoors and the like. Maybe it would be good if he does not get replaced by someone, who could do more harm by talking less bs

That guy is colloquially known as the Cyberclown. Due to his support for cyber blockchain bullshit, being a lobbyist and his general incompetence. Similar to Faeser he should not be in this office not due to KBG connections but due to being

If imprisonment and force is used which the article implies there is no "in between". There is nothing wrong with programs helping people out of homelessness (exploitative forced labor is no such thing). Keep in mind that a lot of

Workhouses used to be a thing until the mid 19 hundreds. Apart from the obvious human rights issues it did not work very well. Because the homeless are usually homeless for a reason and that does not go away if you put them in a prison and

That is completely wrong. For foveated rendering one could easily build dedicate hardware into the device which would require almost no additional power. And those algorithms are not that expensive to begin with. Every camera has face track
