That's pretty cool. Is it scary though to have revenue depending on a low number of clients?

I think it's a tongue in cheek project that isn't meant to be used in any production system. I'm pretty sure you can already put emojis in the text fields of postgres. (or at least I'd be surprised if you couldn't)

So an insect repellent that cats, big or small are going to be attracted to? I mean, I don't think I'd want to put that insect repellent in the savannah, north america or a place that has lots of feral cats.

Unless you go to Ireland you might have to learn a second language if you don't already. (which I would recommend!) And get a visa, which depending on which country in europe you target will have different rules

See funny thing is as a French person in London. I don't think I can spot accents from different parts of Paris, but I can definitely spot accents from different parts of London. I think there's something else at play, I'm no

I went through all the apps I've installed in the past, and the only barcode scanner I've ever installed was this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.zxi... So it might be anoth

I've had the same issue as the author of the post. The barcode scanner wasn't any shitty app, it was the one that was recommended a long time ago by Google authenticator. I had left it installed on my phone and it must had had the

Oh I'm so glad this has been posted! I've been a victim of that specific malware and I was wondering how on earth did it happen as I'm usually careful enough when it comes to security. I also had the barcode scanner app. I di

Encrypted messages are searchable, it's just slower and has to happen on the client rather than the server.

I think similarly to how europe has forced Banks to interoperate by making them write a protocol that can interoperate, governments need to force social media companies to write down a protocol and use it. I like the analogy with utilities,

I don't think people stop working with UBI. What it does provide though, is a safety net to make sure you'll have food on the table but no more. Suddenly if you're hating your job, it's not that scary to tell your boss t

where did you find these figures? I've been trying to find some reliable source to keep an eye on it and I haven't been very successful so far

I think it's fair to assume the price of the energy you buy not only account for the price at generation, but also for all the services a grid provides: transport, reliability, variability of load etc. When it's bought back from y

It's a new pattern, so it's only relevant for some use cases. I don't think it's meant to solve every cases: including the case of a long running job. It's best suited for jobs that can be broken down into tons of s

Does that mean you have to jailbreak your own machine to install linux or is it just a coincidence and it's just the same team?

I think it's easy to say, but harder to apply when the said ten years old is reporting all their friends has a smartphone and as such they're missing on social events, private jokes or made fun of. My niece went through that and m

The English Wikipedia page uses the past tense so I assumed that wasn't the case. But reading the French version of Wikipedia (I happen to be French) and the conclusion is much more tenuous. So I guess I'm wrong!

Qwant is a completely independent search engine though, as far as I'm aware it's not using Bing underneath the hood anymore

what makes you say that? (genuinely curious, but also I agree a little bit)

I wonder what kind of charging speed these will have. I'm guessing a refuse truck doesn't need to charge very fast as it sleeps in a depot, but a delivery truck might do a few shifts a day so that requires fast charging.

This is exciting! Although I'm worried about BTRFS being their new default. I've had horrendous experiences with it and I wouldn't recommend it! I hope it has improved and requires to be less hands-on otherwise it's a ma
