I have been following the Youtube channed "Finally Functional" for a few years. The guy (Alex) built all kinds of VR shoes and rigs in his basement or garage and he was very open with the flaws of each design that he tried. Really

One example is St. Barbara's Church in Kutná Hora (Czech Republic). Construction began in 1305, and it was finished in 1905: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Barbara%27s_Church,_Kutn%C...

It is a design issue because you cannot freely change the number, location and size of buttons. Also, buttons need to be planned long before mass production starts, and for smaller series it is quite expensive to have the mold and design cr

Volkswagen just wanted to make everything new with their electric cars. Therefore they chose the "ID" prefix, which is probably supposed to sound futuristic to the average buyer. But Audi for example had something very similar goi

I had a Volkswagen Arteon Shooting Brake as a rental car on holiday this summer. Me and my family just loved the car, but the buttons on the steering wheel were really weird. I am not sure if you can get used to it, but I really prefer clas

AI sucks pretty hard at generating Vectors. The only option for now is to generate something in an illustration style and have it vectorized.

Great memories. All females around us (wife, sister, mother) hated those toys and my wife was really happy when she heard that one of the tanks broke.

A lot of construction is still banging a bunch of planks together. Maybe in half a million years they will still bang planks together?

I am not sure if we will ever be able to replace git with anything else. It is so ubiquitous and just "good enough" for most developers, that the pain of switching to a completely new system would far outweight the benefits. There

Do you think it is just a coincidence that those Sellafield articles are popping up right after 22 countries pledge to triple nuclear capacity? Me neither.

Adobe file formats never had the reputation of being easy to work with. I spent some time with the CFF font format, and I can say it was not a pleasure.

But the German government has stopped ALL research in nuclear power usage. Even if there was a safe and cheap solition that would not make us dependent from Russia, Germany would not find it because they decided to not even try. It is an ab

Oh come on. Germans have developed a completely irrational fear of nuclear energy, and everything is just a result of this. Driving cost of nuclear power plants up as much as possible was a political decision. Not finding a permanent storag
