Electric is simpler and less risky. For automakers, the worst problem of electric vehicles is that maintainance/service is easy and they make more money servicing vehicles that from selling... but it can be fixed: 1- renting batter

I guess the 8000 likes in one hour is a _global_ threshold. For spanish / german / italian content I guess it should be lower (and with much less impact).

I find this fascinating because in Spain we are in a quick restrict-access-to-cash spiral with banks shouting down offices every.month and getting an ATM nearby is increasingly hard unless you live or work in the center of a big city. If yo

The moment you or your friends have kids, there are a lot of infrequent interactions with people and the names (and ages) really matter. I guess the killing feature for me would be remembering names of parents if my kids schoolmates. You

Both of them. I expect some Python code we've got around will be ported to GO as soon as we need to reduce our cloud bill on some services. I see Python is becoming a the new Basic and the new LUA: - It is easy to code. - It is used to

My CS teacher told me that in the Good-old-times(tm) they archived not just external libraries; but a copy of the compiler with the source code for any given release. Still wonder how they actually did it because storage was expensive as he

Maybe PlantUML might work for your workflow (plantuml.com). Here's an example with a _simple_ kanban board. Maybe it helps: - PlantUML source: https://gist.github.com/igponce/0b7372621c8df7d503df80760ec1... - Gene

Right now I am evaluating Clickhouse as a warm/cold storage for logs. Looked first at elastic; but since most (>80%) log searches will be on the time dimension and not in free form queries, it makes sense to use a columnar SQL DB Al

Another B2B advantage is you actually talk with people that makes decissions. If they become customers, you know about the product directly from them and might even charge for some kind support. In B2C it is very hard to know both your cu

For me Java is legacy. A good runtime for the web will have a lot of developers worldwide. I am betting on it not just for the web, but to replace legacy apps as soon as we get a good runtime not just for the web. Probably Electron can be o

If you can tolerate some error, a bloom filter might work. Both parties make their own bloom filter and send the results to the other party. The good part is no personal data goes inside. I mean, you cannot tell beforehand if someone is a c
