Elden Ring got the Game of the Year award for a reason. The narrative is somewhat minimalist and told in fragmented notes, not the type you would see in Mass Effect, for example, but it is there. The biggest points of the game are explorati

I tried to play with it, rewrite some code to it to find out if it really is more readable ... but without a CASE statement, this can't actually do much business logic yet, so it will have to wait.

Building our own ETL tool on top of Apache Spark. It did work better than Informatica or whatever, but now we run 20k Spark jobs a day in the cloud, and it is incredibly wasteful to start whole Spark instance to touch ten megabyte csv file

There's a Mikrotik switch with 4 SFP+ 10G ports for ~120 EUR. It would work well with DAC cables in a rack. For use with copper you would need SFP+ modules which are like 50 EUR more each.

Moreover, the way fireplaces work is that the fire heats up some kind of heavy construction (cast iron, brick, etc) and that then radiates heat. Not every fireplace is built that way - some of them are decorative and will actually make you

I use those because they are the only ones that work around here. They have lower broadcast energy and thus lower performance but better than 2.4 or getting disconnected every ten minutes.

Yup. It is really bad. Where I live, the channels 36-48 - which is really just one channel once you go 80 Mhz - is chock-full of networks and completely unusable. The DFS channels are also complete unusable, because they jump around like cr

Is 10A common in Sweden? Around here, every basic socket is rated 230V 16A and even apartments typically have each phase 230V 25A. And then you can go to multiple phases. (Funny thing, this is kind oversized for domestic applications and th

This is funny to me, since my language has just one word for both cake and pie, and over the years I was unable to really find out the difference, so this is very good example of making up divisive differences.

There are huge differences in the machine generations. We found that for our workload Graviton3 (c7g) is the best, followed by AMD (m6a), followed by Intel (m6i) with Graviton2 (m6g) somewhat lagging. We can't use Graviton3 however bec
