Because slow governments didn’t manage to set an open standard for what they require so that every little court can verify if the verification approach is valid, so once again there’s a need to trust a brand name, rather than having fair co

Not having access to a good R environment at work is one big reason. At the company I work at there’s a pypi mirror with quite recent packages and it works out of the box - for R there’s only an ancient version and some hacks to get it to w

The national teams usually from the tax payer. At the very least they manage the rights to the local tournaments, which has value in itself. The issue is that they often also have the same corrupt officials who gain legitimacy through this

Sounds like most customer interactions in Singapore that don't perfectly fit into the standard workflow to me.

It should be much simpler to make changes to the manufacturers software, since they all come with the GPL notice. It’s so silly things that don’t work, e.g. the guest network not really being separated. I’ve found it very hard to get a dece

Is this the only viable solution today? Fully opt in to a provider that isn’t user friendly? For a free service maybe ok, but then you typically shouldn’t have the bot problem to such an extent if it’s small enough. For a paid service: no w

I have a regular phone number in Singapore from a new range of numbers that doesn’t work with many services, even with some government services. Customer care typically replies by having me first prove that the number is real (by showing a

You buy a copy of the game that is expected to run with the hardware defined - no end date. If they’d change the button and add an explanation that the license can be revoked at any time without notice or reason, then my argument would be i

(Not a lawyer) You could probably sue in some jurisdictions, since a main aspect of the contract was not clearly advertised. If it has a buy button for game xyz you should assume you’re buying the game, not a license, even if the fine print

Singapore takes the big bin approach like in the US. Europe has arguably too many bins in some places to be practical (Switzerland, though they charge so much on mandatory regular garbage bags that people still sort out, but it feels like a

That’s what I love about New York, don’t follow static rules that don’t make sense, otherwise you won’t be able to deal with such a complex system.

Since it’s all mixed (which would be nice if done right because it simplifies the process) but so badly that it’s difficult to separate it seems more like a way to avoid clogged rubbish chutes.

Quite interesting to see, I recently moved to Singapore which seems to be the place everyone looks up to in the region right now because they say it’s so advanced and apart from the cleanliness (which is different though, it’s mostly to not

This shows a greater dilemma: we don’t want a caste of legal experts making fundamental decisions for an individuals life, but the alternative of getting a jury consisting of the average population who lack sufficient education also doesn’t

That's a different discussion, many EU countries require proof of test or vaccination for certain activities (travel, restaurants), at the same time handling PDFs on the phone can be quite inconvenient. I think this is an interesting s

A web developer has created a simple web app to process the official green pass PDF document of the COVID vaccination from the Austrian government and to add it to wallet applications on the phone. The site contains an easy to understand da

In general, there are so many conflicts of interest in the google ecosystem and good alternatives (though not as well integrated). Even if it’s less convenient it’s good to be open to other options and actively try to use and improve them.

I see more than 20 networks in the building I'm in, so that is already happening. Most people I know don't have cables going to different rooms, there's a router where the signal comes in and wifi from there. Often there&#x27

Only model 4 has USB3 (and that one comes with two ports that only have USB2), in case you don't need the higher performance.

Possibly, but given that even Intel and Logitech comment on this issue I won't take the cost and effort of testing them all and reviews are often also pretty worthless.

5GHz works well as long as your access point is in the same room. In real life one of the drivers behind having so many wireless devices in the first place is avoiding the effort and cost of laying cables everywhere, 5GHz often doesn't

You might not have a hub. I’ve added one because the back usb and card reader were hard to reach, that is when the problems started. It might be the dock but I’ve had issues with others too and I don’t want to order any dock I can find and

Careful that one has a bad design too: without an extension cable it often doesn’t work. I’ve read it might be because it’s not drawing enough power to switch on. Apart from that it’s just amazing, better (not as flat) keys than the magic m
