Still waiting for mine as well. I'm in Singapore and it's apparently the last region to be served. I have yet to get a shipping notification. I hope to get it soon though.

It's because people don't generally understand them. Especially checked exceptions are very difficult to understand if the programmer has not been taught the fundamental principles of how to deal with them (generally, don't,

About the names of these products, horse meat is traditionally called "hamburgerkött" in Swedish. It literally translates to "hamburger meat" (related to the city of Hamburg, and not the dish hamburger).

I've wanted to get a PS5 since it came out, and I still haven't been able to get one. Mainly because I don't want to pay any markup. I measure PS5 availability by looking at what the current markup is. Earlier this year, it w

Common Lisp does by default. Calling (/ 1 3) gives 1/3 which is a rational. The individual components of a rational number are bignums, so the size of the fraction is only limited to available RAM. However, this is not enough in m

Sounds exactly like the debate in Sweden in the 80's. They even used a very similar word. They even went so far as implementing a system where extra profit went into a separate fund that was going to buy shares of the company. An inter

I would probably post the idiomatic version in my programming language. Hopefully it will spark a discussion around language design. If not, perhaps it's a sign that the company is pretty rigid, and might not be a nice place to work.

That's very weird, since it's such a useful unit. I've also noticed that the decilitre also seems to be underused outside of Sweden.

This looks really neat. I played around with it a bit and it's very intuitive to use. If I could make a single request, it would be to be able to have white background. As someone with heavy astigmatism, using the site as is is very di

That's why there is the decimetre. For some reason I've noticed it's not that common here in Singapore, but back in Sweden where I grew up, it's used all the time.

Here in Singapore, prices are about the same as Europe. I just replaced my old car with an EV and now my price per km is 1/5 of what I paid before, and that was before the most recent price petrol price hikes.

I'd expect most people to install a charger at home so you can charge overnight. Is this not done much in the US?

This is a problem for QUbes OS which has a legitimate need for vgpu on a desktop operating system. It's because of this arbitrary restriction that Qubes is not able to provide GPU acceleration, which is a huge barrier to its adoption.
