Or you could be a rambling man, and actually go everywhere: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXDtQcuA5Bo (It's not until 3:20 that places start getting listed)

Yeah, I remember reading something about measuring Michael Phelps' energy input/output and he would have been in a massive surplus, except for the fact he was in cold water so much - and the energy required to keep himself warm ma

on https://rownd.io/pricing 'Up to 1 website', is an odd way of saying it. You can't really have less, can you? Also in Pro you've spelt 'Unlimited' incorrectly. Any plans to add social auth, o

Firebase, Cognito, Azure B2C? Yeah, for the same reason I don't want to store credit card details, I don't want to store user credentials.

Australia has that beat. We're spending around $4m (USD 2.87m) per person to house refugees in Nauru offshore detention. Because reasons. Persionally, I'd rather let the formally recognised refugees come to Australia and pay them

Yeah, I've found this to be the least broken (and fastest) way of joining a meeting. No issues with any other meeting platform (Slack, Zoom, Discord etc... all work a treat), but the Teams client, on multiple machines? I've lost t

Permy role -> Consulting role -> Contracting is the way I did it. Although as a lot of people say, clients come from my network and referrals. So build that up first. Also, I started my own consulting gig in the UK, which is pretty mu

Yeah, I really like how the characters unveiled - and the overall arc of the story. Bit of feels near the end.

Yeah, I can't see it quite happening the way the Sun intimates. Can't rule out FOD ingestion, but highly impropably could it have been an intake covers left on.

What's stupid, is (as long as comments are enabled) all someone needs to say is "I dislike/hate/loathe this video" and everyone who would have previously disliked the video, upvotes that comment (perhaps as well as.

A pair of safety goggles (while grinding steel) would be a good investment too.

Things like irfanview and imageglass are great alternatives, but I actually find myself using the photos "Edit & Create" option a lot, so I'm not sure I'm really looking for another default image program.

I can't find anything to back this up. If anything, Germany are investing more in geothermal. It's expensive to set up, which is the downside, but it's a great baseload source for power/heat that keeps generating nonstop

Most of our builds (.net Core with a react front-ends) take around five minutes from push to having a release ready. Haven't really needed to optimise them at all. Roughly a minute for each of npm build, dotnet build, test and publish.

Worth checking your dishwasher though. Ditto, that's all I knew in UK (although I mostly hand-washed). But even here in Aus now, there's a little compartment for pre-wash/rinse detergent... but nobody is aware of it that I&#x

Some UK flats are tiny and can't fit a full-size dishwasher. And as a singleton, you don't often make enough dishes to justify a full load either. (although a twin drawer dishwasher would work a treat there)

In 2008, I just quit - leaving my job at a small consultancy, which I really enjoyed. Initially, I was going to move country/head away travelling. But then it actually made sense to hang about for a bit for visa/residency reasons,

Well, it's perfect readable in lynx & IE6. I think for the most part, it's a pretty reasonable selection of tags. And there's almost no excuse to keep crazy old stuff around these days.

It's missing an obnoxious cookie dialog, mailing list modal window and multiple ads.

I don't think it'll take long for the first Drone Prison Escape.

So much better than the best wired connection I can currently get here in Aus... Awesome!

This was probably _the_ QA site for development/IT questions prior to SO. It used to be completely open and I really enjoyed helping out answering questions on the site. It felt like a focussed newsgroup that was super accessible. But

Or just use one bathroom scale, and a lever to adjust weight of a single wheel to within the scales limit, then measure each wheel individually and add the results.

It'd be super not efficient... Also, nobody wants a figure-8 demolition derby in space...

And, in practice, the latency will actually be better than fibre. So instead of a 240msec ping to the US from NZ, it'd be closer to the theoretical minimum of 25msec, but by how much, who knows? I could see a realistic 50-80msec perhap

Same thing and worked a treat, with live updating... interesting.

So looks like my randomised sleep times, working until bed, too warm a room, light seeping through, and glass of scotch in the evening 'routine' is not the most ideal. Definitely need to take that advice on board!
