Agreed. When I first started at my company, our graduate programme involved a ‘showcase project’ where we had to think up a problem to solve within the business. It certainly wasn’t effective in allocating effort - most groups did a month o

Oh thank you, that's wonderful news! I'll definitely look in to that if I have any frustrations with configuring SS myself. Even if I use Streisand for the SS side and Algo for the IPSec side, that would be a reasonable solution.

My issue with Streisand is that it spins up a dozen different services, of which I would like 1-2. Indeed, I then stumbled across Algo [1], which cited this as one of the motivating reasons for existing. It does 50% of what I'm after i

Australia has what's referred to as 'big-L' Liberals, who are the conservative side, as opposed to 'small-l' liberals as you'd commonly describe 'liberal politics', i.e. progressive. Our centre-right

Yup. The Buran was awesome. They have scaffolding up into the cargo bay and a small viewing deck into the rear to look at all the electronics near the engines. I definitely recommend both, they're wonderful museums with heaps on offer.

Yeh that general area has heaps of cool museums and factories around. I only got to these due to a super cramped sechedule, but I had marked several there (ESA Operations Centre is a bit north, for example) and would've loved to see mo

If you're ever around Stuttgart/Frankfurt area, there's a couple of really amazing Technical Museums that are sister facilities. One is in Sinsheim and one is in Speyer and are known as the Teknik Museum Sinsheim/Speyer.

There's no way they purchased Oculus without buying Carmack for a set period of retention. That's a major part of the attraction for FB.

Fascinating that the battery of the original was the biggest until the 4 landed - it speaks for the power optimisation that they pursued for those first 4 iterations. Also amusing how it's literally a completely different purpose batte

Yes, good. The new behaviour is better. See? It cuts both ways, you can't make blanket statements like that - either way - when they're subjective to each user's own use case. I legitimately prefer this toggle, because I so r

Perfect, found that now thank you! A bit weird to have it separate to the option to take in that format, though sort of understandable in a twisted logic since it's to do with the photos app not the camera app.

They beat everyone else, including UberEats, to the AU market. I think them and Foodora were the first two, but they won and UberEats just relied on their brand to muscle in. Both share the market pretty evenly ehre, from what I can tell. I

It's worth noting that in Queensland, we saw a big decline in cost after the feed-in tariff was dropped substantially in 2012, reducing demand. I paid AU$8500 for a 3kW system when I could lock in a 44c feed-in tariff, but everyone kne

The only solution for a non-US citizen is to simply not travel to the US. This is far less of a loss than it seems to many; it's a large and fascinating world out there and there's many other wonderful places to visit instead.

I don't know what they're scoring on; they've not elaborated on that. However, when I first read into OpenAI it looked like many of their game links were to simply view the screen. To that end, it wouldn't surprise me if

I don't think that's true at all, since you have to consider how each team of 5 heroes combines and synergises. That's a far larger part of balance than individual heroes. Players also play roles, but typically play more than
