Sweden Public housing is terrible. You get in the queue at 16/18 and maybe maybe when you're 30 you can get a nice 2 rooms apartment on the suburbs. Except if you managed to either buy someone's contract illegally, or use fam

Rust database and migration story is really not that nice yet. SQLx is nice for pure SQL but doesn't have a good query builder story yet. Diesel is very clunky in comparison to Django ORM as soon as you get to anything beyond basic. Mi

I think people usually have wayyyy more tabs opened than programs. I might have 5-6 programs so alt tab doesn't take long to circle through. I might have 20 tabs that I'm currently using, and it is not unusual to go above that (an

I don't think you understand. This has nothing to do with activists. Companies already did not want to advertise on controversial content 40 years ago. You don't see Rolex advertising on The Sun (and no, it's not only about d

The EU is not doing worse than the US. Unemployment is still down, at a 10years low in many countries. I don't understand those related about the job situation, it seems like a great time to be looking for a job. Source: looking for a

Actually this isn't the whole truth. There is a substantial body of literature around the effect of merging both positions or not and it is not really conclusive in any direction. You mention Europe but for instance in France it has be

The ECB started later but then has raised more or less at the same rythme as the fed. They have signaled they will keep raising the rate. Greece and Italy will not default even with rates at 5% so they have quite some margin to raise more.

If that's the case we are very very far away from the bottom as my feed is full of posts of.people saying now is the time to buy, never been so cheap, only upside from now etc.

On a different note I have encountered a bug where I reach a page with a video title and description but the video being played does not match and is instead from another one. I think it has happened especially after going to a full page vi

Paying bride is a criminal offense. Paying bride abroad is also a domestic criminal offense. I do not think encouraging criminal behavior is a great idea, especially when it is also unequivocally morally wrong.

What does "moderate" mean in this context? From an outside perspective both Biden and Obama have felt extremely moderate for instance.

Investors live on earth. Climate change will incurr extremely high costs on anyone living on earth. Therefore it is part of their fiduciary duty to fight it for any company in the world. In a more cynical way, ESG is a way to try to escape

Isn't that what has been happening since humans have existed? We have to wear clothes to live in most environments for instance, that is a good sign of not being naturally adapted.

If you play any game then it's really not 60 seconds. And then having a processor drawing this kind of power has impact on you PDU, cooling system, case... mATX for instance makes nearly no sense with that kind of power use. But who wa

Are those things that are not possible to do in the US? That just seems so absurd. I'd be pissed if I couldn't put a sofa or a car where I want on my own property! Can your neighbors also prevent you from putting your children scu

That is just plain wrong. No later than a month ago I was in vacation and took several picture with a regular mirrorless (Fuji x-e3) and a new pixel phone, while others in the group had iphones. The mirrorless picture quality was just miles

Cargo docs is a bit of a curse for me. A lot of crates have docs only through that mean and think just having a few lines of intro is enough and then we'll good luck understanding the library. I love the docs in the Python ecosystem as

I see this kind of take very often and I always wonder what people take in as dependencies that could be replaced by a few lines of code. Literally none of my direct dependencies could be replaced without thousands of lines of code and week

Netflix in 1080p is nowhere near the quality required to play games in 1080p. It is heavily compressed, whereas games need crisp precision because it contains a lot of text that should be rendered precisely, as well as having pixel perfecti

I don't think you can say Tesla is "no more bullshit". If anything they are the one adding shiny useless feature for the buzz, and having a terrible all touch UI that makes no sense for driving. The only car manufacturer that

Depends how you drive. I had 5.5L with a BWM serie 3 diesel, about 6.1L with a class E wagon diesel. I would consider myself an average driver, neither slow nor fast. Cars in normal mode (not eco, not sport).

Those are most likely by far not the worst things that would have happened to somebody being born in 1945. And also very little compared to what other generations have endured, or even what other countries experienced in the last 75 years,

Stone walls are terrible for heat insolation. They have inertia but no insolation. So they are good in the Mediterranean coast where you want inertia in summer as some sort of natural climate control to keep it cool during the day. But they

There are plenty of books about the engineering takeaways from the Third Reich. The fact that it was evil does not mean one should ignore everything about it.

That actually sounds right. Anything that treats people differently because of a so called "race" is racist.

Air drying clothes indoor is pretty bad. It is slow, takes space, and leaves textile in a bad state (at least for cotton and wool). Drying outside is good but not possible everywhere and not always. Also things like sheets and towels really
