   Building codes are much more than you think. At least in Europe there are codes for accessibility, dwelling design, room height, utility rooms, mechanical resistance, stability, hygiene, environment, noise levels, general safety, energy man

   I find it quite useful, with the exception of the porn ads. But I strictly follow python developers, bsd people and retro computing enthusiasts. None post any politics. I think any social media platform can be good/bad just like people

   I always found it odd that many seem to belittle the RPi and/or say it's lacking in power or features. As I understood it since the beginning, the RPi is a teaching and learning tool, not your 32gb home server running git, nextclo

    Bending Spoons also bough Evernote a while ago. Pretty much doubled the price. With that I thought they could go stuff themselves and went to unsubscribe, but they offered a drastic discount if I didn't. So they managed to keep me for

    I didn't mean you were, I just said that talking to people is effective but some take it up a level where it likely ends badly.

    My guess, you were not fast enough? Imagining myself as a recruiter, I would probably be working with a fair number of leads at the same time. Any of those who are a good fit and quick to respond would get sent to HR. My recent job I landed

    I don't know if it counts, but actually I will improve my physical skills. Learning to lift heavy, improve balance and coordination. In addition to that I want to become much better with my motorcycle handling in such as slow speed, do

    It is quite possible to build save nuclear plants in a short time. Swedish Barsebäck and Oskarshamn took 5 years each, finnish Olkiluoto 1 started already after 4 years. In the heavy bureaucratized Germany Unterweser took 6 years from first

    Question is; does my code end up somewhere it should not? It's a bit tricky with AI tools when working on a proprietary codebase which is absolutely not allowed to leave the premises.

    I am getting a Toyota, a 10 year old ICE should be affordable for me and would probably give me 3-4 years without too much value deprecation. An 10 year old EV, I don't know. Seems like a real gamble considering most battery warrants a

    I used BitWarden for a while, but it didn't feel like I was in control. These days I use KeePass but together with Syncthing to have it across all my devices. It's a bit of setup but I am in control and it works flawlessly. Last w

    Interesting choice of word. If the employees are not interested, the employer is not interested, yet they are forced to do something they do not want (and which is voluntary, again by law) then it's not being "stubborn".

    Preaching to the choir here, but yes, my Brother L2357 mono laser printer is a really good purchase. Windows, Linux or Android, all of them connects wireless and prints, and no funny stuff with toner cassettes. Perhaps not financially smart

    EV torque is insane, and it absolutely shreds tires. Ask any shop and they'll tell you they sell more tires to EV owners. Which from a pollution/microplastics standpoint isn't good, we need an improved sustainable tire asap.
