12 years on, and a lot of Postgres-based services built since the OP site first went live, I now actually may recommend MongoDB as the sensible option...

The article is actually good. The title is a little click-baity even if that is actually what it covers. It is mostly about tweaking the AI options which is actually helpful as I don't mind some of the new features.

It is so often dismissed how important the second part is. Many think that just moving to a country is enough, and you will pick up the language. Maybe the basics, but not if you don't speak and think it 24/7, however uncomfortabl

It seems for the moment they will only check for this new fee on entry at the borders. If the fee has been not paid entry will be denied from tonight. Hence, if you stay in the country nothing will change. And they can wait until this gets

Reminds me of this great house/greenhouse in Norway with a small "power station" in the stream outside. https://youtu.be/irp_HPzfxbQ?si=ZR3PAXvUyjsSSZx5&t=1658

These are my own fears as well, but guardrails will evolve to make them a minor nuisance. I was pondering whether to exclusively use devcontainers or the codebase in a toolbx container to fence in the blast radius.

It is part of why people argue that Chess is a sport. When grandmasters battle it out for hours in classic chess, thinking ahead of so many branches of moves that I would find unfathomable, they do burn through a lot of energy. For what is

I do too. Though it does get awkward when dealing with a human related to that site. E.g. a small time hotel phoning about a booking or a local events organiser, they all seem weirded out that I have their name in my email address... :) I

I have quite a few personal catch-all domain names, and two of the main ones are used for the per website alias as you do, so over a decade and longer later, I would never be able to manually enter each address. Or remember them. And yes, t

You can just bring or buy some pop-up travel blackout blinds made for babies. We used those with great effect when visiting my parents' summer house in Northern Norway in the summers when the kids were young. Bonus, they now work as gr

I am very very happy with Fastmail. I know they have some presence in the US but I think they scaled that down and are entirely an Australian company. Their integration with 1password and masking email aliases is also very useful [0]. If ho

Yeah, when I got the ICO fee extortion letter, they were put in my total scam category. Even when I realised they had some actual official purpose in collecting fees, I still viewed them as a scam, so they have a PR issue more than anything

That is why I have those for keys I rarely use, such as 'esc' and 'del'. Relatively rare - as they are obviously used frequently enough but not really when typing. And then I hit them with my middle finger instead, or ra

Yeah, not in the EU makes it more expensive (customs), warranties, and more bureaucratic for a small market. I am sure they will eventually, but quicker and less friction to expand to EU countries and later maybe to other EEA countries. It

It references Statkraft, the Norwegian power company. When they talk about storing power in batteries, they mean lakes and reservoirs at altitude. They are basically giant batteries.

I just buy a bunch of these biodegradable PLA straws instead. They work well https://amzn.eu/d/dKIyKxE . Not missed the old plastic straws apart from when at a burger joint that gives you the useless paper ones. The bag

These flying cars are essentially just snazzy helicopters for wealthy people and enthusiasts. They can 'never' scale to be a mass-market, rush-hour queuing solution and holiday mass-exodus. Well 'never' is a long time, b
