You don’t even need all the ceremony. If the config gets updated every 5 minutes, it surely is being hot-reloaded. If that’s the case, the old config is already in memory when the new config is being parsed. If that’s the case, parsing shou

In this case it definitely wasn’t the least bad option though.

I do agree with the fragility argument. Though if/when the shock comes, I doubt we’ll be anywhere near being able to build cars. Especially taking into account that all the easily accessible ore has long been mined and oxidized away.

Startups typically have the tech stack that the one man army tech co-founder set up on no budget. Apparently then .NET isn’t too popular for that!

Idk, not really worried about that. There are shops that are able to swap out a faulty module, and the cost is not too horrible: https://www.reddit.com/r/electricvehicles/comments/1e3onbp/c...

I was literally in this situation this year. My parents needed an upgrade, and as I was researching it, the 2 year old used cars were just 1-2k EUR cheaper than the same model new with a slight discount. Of course we got the new one, if onl

But _why_ would the battery depreciate so much? My 4 year old EV can drive the same distance as it could when it was new. The data we have on EVs just doesn’t support the idea that their range drops a cliff at some point. And if they do, yo

I was about to take offence at the use of “trivial” in this context. But then I noticed your handle, lol. You have the license to say that, thanks for your contributions!

The truly mind-blowing thing to me is that chat control literally goes against the constitutions of a lot of EU countries. Pooling sovereignty is one thing. Voting for regulations that you then need to implement as local laws where those lo

Because you mostly end up generating when you don’t need the power, and need the power when you’re not generating. If the way things are structured in your country let you draw the same amount of kWh that you’ve put into the network, that w

I used to do these things manually in Cursor. Then I had to take a few months off programming, and when I came back and updated Cursor I found out that it now automatically does ToDos, as well as keeps track of the context size and compress

You really shouldn’t use SMS 2FA. SIM swapping does happen. This kind of depends on the jurisdiction though. In some countries operators won’t reassign the phone number willy-nilly. Still, better to just not do SMS auth. These days Yubikeys

Authy has solved this though. The cloud sync is opt-in, and encrypted with a password. This makes it immensely more involved to compromise.

Reading up on it made me realize that a certain well known orange person is really on Stage 2 of moral development. That explains a lot. But also gives hope. I mean, it’s rare that adults fail to advance from pre-conventional phases, so it

The issue is that your criticism is misguided and not very helpful. In your parent comment you totally miss the forest for the trees. Or, the reason why this app has been made in the first place. Further, your suggestions are inactionable,

Hey! Thanks for making this! A bit more polish and this is something I’d make sure everyone in my family has played with. Imagine a world where every third person is able to recognise worrying skin lesions early on.

I only got an EV after getting a house for this exact reason. I really like EVs, but I wouldn’t buy one, if I don’t have a convenient place for routine charging. An apartment complex being built next door offers you to buy a parking lot tog

They are the opposite of that. Once you interact with a KYC’d system, all your financial history is freely available to any sufficiently advanced actor who can get a hold on said KYC data.
