Some people will put it as as small server somewhere, then this battery is like a backup power for servers but built-in. Framework even sells a small case for this sort of usage. If I had skin in that game, I would do this. For developping

Same for me. My brain broke down somewhat, but luckily I am retired. I often ask AI like "What's the word for a smaller variant of something?", super helpful.

There are two forces fighting with each other: Many protons repel each other with their positve electric charge. But they also attract each other with their strong force. It's complicated but if you simplify you could say too large nuc

Does it produces the infamous emoji if a certain expletive occurs in the input? By the way, I use that emoji to test whether astral planes are handled correctly. I need to recover from the cognitive dissonance now...

Thanks for the answers, very appreciated. Once I yanked out about 20m of old phone wire (copper) out of a wall, and now it's my duck tape wire.

In Rust I came to the opposite conclusion. One webserver framework, Axum, has the trait IntoResponse which is returned by something that implements Handler. A lot of things implement IntoResponse and/or Handler. In plain English you ha

Yeah, I am just a programmer. TIL that datacenter capacity uses the unit Watt. I didn't believe it first, thought, again these journalists being confused about units. Not the first time.

Good idea if you host a server, but then probably you also could employ HTTP/2 which doesn't have this limitation. If you offer an executable where the end-user runs it on their own laptop or desktop, you can't expect them to

I also wondered about this, but there's a crucial differnce, no idea if it matters: in that loop it reads the register, so the register is read at least 4 times.

To some extent yes. However to host something yourself you need a lot of things, for example FTTH to host it at your home, or a hosting provider; then a domain name and other things. These can be taken away from you.
