From my understanding this should work as the schema is introspected ahead of time. This gives all the type information needed for the `useQuery` hook to work properly. Just the queries themselves are generated at runtime; there shouldn&#x2

indeed, the point the parent comment was making is that effective email validation need not perfectly implement the RFC. dotless domains are going to be so rare in practice (unless your project has some niche use-case) that you can probably

I don't believe this is true. There's an installation of 9 1MW turbines (perhaps quite small in comparison to the largest ones around today) near where I live that I frequently cycle past (within ~50m). Even in strong winds they a

Sure, if you're validating some data there're loads of better ways to do it than a bunch of conditionals. I was purely commenting on the switch(true) pattern vs some "if"s. That approach looks nice though. On that subjec

I think the post doesn't give a fair comparison as in the if/else case there's no need to use "else" blocks if you're throwing an error or returning. In this case I think simple "if" statements are cl

I think op is pricing correctly (installed capacity rather than energy generated). A typical domestic solar installation in the UK costs around £6000 for a 4kW system, which works out at around £1500 per kW installed capacity. This makes th

One thing that stood out to me was they wouldn't need necessarily need to optimize for performance if they didn't choose a stack whose costs increase massively as you scale. In many applications things like having a testable, easy

It’s for these situations that I tend to use pass phrases rather than long random strings of different special characters. Much easier to type 4 or 5 words

Or, even better, the product of Watts and time (Watt-hours). mA-hours doesn't mean much if you don't know the battery's voltage.

I'm a pretty happy VSCode user but I do find it pretty heavy and startup is pretty slow, even on my M1 Mac. I used to love Sublime Text but it looks like it hasn't received much dev input recently, although it is perfectly service

How do you feel about the examples given in the thread like autocomplete suggestions overlaying a datepicker? Surely that's not great for anyone. It may well be that disabling autocomplete is open to abuse, but it's not up to the

Some older fobs do recharge when in the car’s ignition. My old bmw did this and it was recommended to swap the keys from time to time to make sure they didn’t run out off battery. I guess this can’t be the case with the “keyless” keys thoug

I think you’re confusing hydro with pumped storage. Hydro is easily comparable with wind/solar assuming the scheme has a steady inflow (river, rain, snow etc)

You’d probably be better bringing a diesel generator and a big tank of fuel. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if that isn’t being done by the authorities to help make up the shortfall

I believe most people will be on fixed rate tariffs so it shouldn’t affect their bills (aside from lower usage due to the outages). This will hit the suppliers as they need to buy the energy for their customers on the wholesale market. I do

Just to nitpick your numbers a bit. 6MW, while a lot of power, is still a lot less than your average nuclear reactor, even a small one (The reactors on the French aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle are 150MW each), and Hydro schemes are oft

That’s assuming that all the planes manufactured in Alabama are not exported outside the USA. E.g. to airlines registered in Mexico, Canada, S America. I imagine that at least some are exported so moving manufacturing outside the USA would

I'm sure the tube wasn't the deciding factor when it comes to the anxiety, but as someone who (pre-covid) commutes daily in London I find my cycles to and from work are a great release and make the experience much more tolerable.

All of those seem like valid criticisms against UBI, but is it an argument not to do it? Are those issues non-existant without UBI? Take your third point - what do we do with people who spend all their UBI on drugs and gambling? Even though
