   In Berlin we have a very limited amount of cops on bikes. Getting out of the car changes their perspective.

   In Germany Political parties get reimbursed for expenses based on how many votes they received. This reduces the dependence upon corporate gifts.

   At least in the medium-term future we would at most be able to use is Hydrogen->Helium which would yield 6.45 x 10^14 Joules [1] which is equivalent to 179 GWh which at 200Wh/km would be 8.95*10^8 km. That's still enough to go

   I thought O(1) = O(100) so it would still technically be correct, no?

   Not sure what algorithm you use for encryption, but 21 doesn't look like a prime. Maybe run a Miller Rabin test on it? ;)

    Also, when you run low on memory, iptables can crash on you: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200651 Poof, no more networking

    I am wondering whether voltage is stable at the very beginning when fans and disks spin up (as their coils are almost like a short) and capacitors are filling up. How do ICs Deal with initial voltage drops? Do they wait for things to stabil

    File descriptors and inotify watches can still be exhausted. In somewhat older versions also pids. If you allocate memory fast enough(if you're a best effort pod), oomkiller instead of kubelet evictions happen, which can be kind of unp

    If you are without valuable payload in 18-25km height there is nothing you can harm really even if you blow up. so maybe it may even make sense to add a self-destruct (ignition) of the balloon, if it malfunctions.

    So some data is now in(Obviously with the old firmware, not the one mentioned in the article): Without fan, idle: 58°C peak With fan idle: 39°C (roughly 26°C ambient temperature) With fan 4x parallism of `yes > /dev/null`: 51°C

    I just tried out the Pi 4 yesterday and after a couple of hours of headless idling with no peripherals connected (just wifi) it was so hot, I almost burned my finger. So this is definitely welcomed. But heatsinks or even fans will likely b

    Best thing is that some messages go through despite returning 500s. This leads to our integrations spamming our companies channels with redundant messages while retrying. :/

    Yes. But The tax needs to be high enough to capture most of the value not created by the landlord. As I am no property owner I am not too deep into this, but right now I think we are far from that. Property tax is just now being redone in G

    This will prevent the referendum to expropriate major german housing companies to gain traction. So in this way this could actually be considered as a pro-market law when considering the political alternatives.

    IIRC one issue of NorGer(a similar cable) was that German energy law prefers domestic plants over imported electricity. This of course is a huge risk to investors of submarine cables and was an obstacle in getting it built.

    A holocaust survivor once told me her mother died after liberation of the camp by English troops, because they started eating the ample supplies that the guards had kept for themselves. Truly tragic.
