Anyone can sign up for the Porsche factory in Stuttgart, Germany or the MINI plant in Oxford UK, there are probably many others too. Stuttgart is really dominated by Porsche and Mercedes-Benz, there's an giant M-B star on the town'

I've toured a couple of car plants because I find them really interesting - Porsche, Mini - the level of refinement, sophistication and tracability of their ERP is always staggering.

You assume I’m American, I’m not. Also the article is about Dutch people. CO2 is only one metric of pollution. And as India is 4x the population of the US what difference will the amount of Nitrogen Dutch farmers use make once the Indians a

I understand this is about new laws to do with nitrogen use in farming coming into effect in the EU. Holland is one of the first countries to actually move towards compliance the the farmers are not impressed. Personaly I am with the farmer

I remember the audible ‘clunk’ of the relays snapping in on those old pass through cards. Always the sound of a good time. Remember seeing a guy at a lan party carrying his whole box by the pass through cable one too, that made a few people

You could say a lot of the work is speculative because you might be wrong about how much value it ends up producing. But if you say that 1 project in 10 pays off you just take the cost of the other 9 as the cost of the 10th.

They sometimes have pacers at our local parkrun with little flags for 25 mins, 30 mins etc. It's nice to be able to see how you're doing without looking at your watch all the time because judging by how knackered you feel is usual

I do worry about that as a general point. We're all guilty of something random, in the future it'll be possible to find out exactly what by running an sql query against some huge govt database. And when we're all guilty of so

According to the PDF, the digital pound is issued by and backed by the bank of england and as such is classed as 'public money' in the same way as cash. You don't need to go begging to a private institution for the privilage

I think it's rediculous how much Windows tries to scare you away from using not-edge and then constantly tries to scare you into switching back (plus using Bing). It's no wonder their numbers are up.

It's easy for me and I don't know your situation to say but try not to be so fixated on the $1200/mo. Seems to be that a solid job with Python skills could make the $1200 look small very quickly.

Really? If it’s incredibly efficient at 4mi/kWh you’d need 10kwh per day (assuming 100% efficiency) from a panel on a car roof… that doesn’t even seem close to me.
