Bread with sugar in it is problematic, but that doesn't mean all bread is bad. That would be like saying that boiled potatos are as unhealthy as french fries. Or rolled oats vs. sugary industrial cereals. Whole grains are actually real

It's really not expensive anymore. There's a Black Friday deal on amazon.de for an entry-level Anker Solix system with 4x500W panels and a 2.6 kWh battery. 1200 EUR. For those that don't have the cash, financing is available.

Shape.getOfType(type) would also be a factory. A factory does not need to be a class, it can also just be a function. I see two reasons for using a factory: 1. Reducing the scope of what a piece of code is responsible for (a.k.a. "Sing

Maybe you can go into more detail about what kind of modules you mean, but generally Dependency Injection allows using different implementations of a thing (module?) in the same place. The most common use case for me is test doubles (mocks)

Just because it doesn't seem realistic in one place does not mean it cannot work. Cycling in winter seems to be a non-issue in Finland, for instance. I don't live in Finland, but I do ride my bike for fitness in bad weather. Last

"Strava's route planner has no competition" That's an absurd statement. All of the route planning tools have their advantages and disadvantages. I frequently create routes for cycling and a couple of times I used Strav

Impaired glycemic response, when bad enough, is a cause of diabetes. Insulin is not a bad thing, high blood glucose is. When there is no need to immediately use glucose as a fuel (like when exercising), insulin is secreted. It acts as a sig

Scrolling through online feeds is an addiction. Best thing seems to be to go cold turkey. Instead you could do something meditative (e.g. taking walks, sports) or something that allows you to enter a flow state (e.g. reading a book). Gettin

Don't just let your designers hand over the results. Make them pair on work with the engineers. This way, they will - get to know each other - get a better understanding of each other's work: what is important in the design and wh

The particulate sensor on my Xiaomi air purifier correlates really well with the numbers from my city's air quality network. What doesn't work well for me is the auto mode, it barely does anything at less than 50µg/m^3, way t

That's a misunderstanding. What should be kept stable are the goals the company wants to reach, not the details in execution. When you notice your navigation app is sending you down a cliff, do you still follow that route? Of course no
