Who does the verification? Who does guard the keys? Who is responsible when keys go missing and "prove" false information? Just saying "we need to sign photos" isn't enough and simply naïve.

Bold statement. ERP is a billlion dollar market. If everybody in this space is so "lousy", why not disrupt it and bless everybody with your skills?

Domain specific knowledge. Don't roll your own unless you really know what you are doing. Especially for anything finance.

If you need the data, it could very well be cheaper. AWS Glacier request costs are no joke.

After financial markets collapsed in 2008, Ireland was in quite bad shape and requested a 67 billion Euro bailout from the EU. The EU granted it under the condition that Ireland gets their finances in order and imposes austerity measures on

The question is: is it more expensive than getting lapped by other countries because the industry cannot keep up in regards to digitalization (also known under the marketing phrase "industry 4.0")? It's incredibly sad to stil

Germany is hilariously behind other EU nations in regards to internet access and connection speed. After plans for FTTH got scrapped in 1983 (!!) Germany is still using copper telephone lines for the vast majority of its internet users. Whi

In my experience preprocessing the image is extremely important before feeding it into Tesseract. I tried to do the same as OP on a rainy afternoon but shelved the project after it became more of a imagemagick research task than about creat

That makes way more sense. GGP is probably meaning exactly that, specifically vsv from the OP that I missed initially. https://github.com/nalgeon/sqlite-plus/blob/main/docs/vsv.md

I don't think that a folder full of JSON files is actually simpler. There are SQLite drivers for nearly every language out there and querying SQLite is not only very easy and fast but it's also all contained in a single file you c

Even just running for 10 minutes is enough. It's not fast, it's not efficient but it's free and thus worth it if you can automate it.

This is a real talking point of crypto currency enthusiasts for people that didn't know and assume satire. They think that consuming more and more power results in more renewable energy being build. But because PoW algorithms create a

There is a push to reach consensus before getting rid of DST and I don't think they will get rid of DST before 2023. So nothing is decided, yet, and anything can still happen, even keeping DST in the EU. It would be correct for France

It's just a page with a lot of small images (all directly loaded from the repo) and a short description for each. After loading half of the images GitHub throttled me and blocked requests with an error message about abuse. After 2 minu

That's a nice assumption but I don't believe this to be true. Before the pandemic hit, VW (the make, not Porsche or Bugatti) made only a few hundred Euro profit per vehicle, with some lower class models even less than 100€. Tesla

VW plans to produce 1.5 million EVs per year ~in their Zwickau plant~ worldwide from 2025 onwards. They are also evaluating more plants to switch to full EV production. Tesla expects to make 500.000 cars per year in their German plant they

If you don't enjoy haggling, you can just pay sticker price. Tesla eliminated haggling by simply not allowing you to pay anything different than sticker price, so I don't see how this is a plus.

My office has a similar system but in a very simple version. It's just for cooling and constantly pulling air out of the basement into the offices. For a few weeks in the beginning of summer it's working fine but after the basemen

How does Bitcoin help? Deflation is actually bad for the economy because people hoard money. It would be stupid to buy things because money gets more valuable over time while things depreciate.

Not everybody can rake in billions each year. It's perfectly fine for a company to make a few good quality wares that sell well in a niche. Somebody has to make air filters, lighting, brake pads, ropes, etc., you know? By your logic ev

I remember when in Germany some budget airlines used to say they'd fly to "Frankfurt" (FRA) but actually flew to "Frankfurt-Hahn" (HHN) - 115km away. After arrival in HHN they put you on a bus to FRA that took about

Bold move from Tesla. This could end very badly, though. The Jeep Grand Cherokee used (maybe still uses?) an unconventional design for its drive selection (the knob always returned to its initial position) and it confused a lot of people, i

Everytime I hear this, I have to laugh. Setting up a car workshop, carpenter workshop, a bakery, a hair salon etc. will set you back a few ten if not hundred thousand dollars for equipment and/or inventory alone. Meanwhile you can rent

Application-defined functions are very useful. One of my company's applications is already designed to work with different SQL systems and a new customer desperately wanted SQLite for a very special use case. As SQLite is quite simple
