If you put something like this in your garage and you get it wrong (despite using the right components), you can cause an electrical fire. Burning your house down seems quite possible. But I appreciate he didn't put this in his garage.

In this case, it's seemingly some co-workers that objected and not random other people on earth. More than those few cubicle visitors knew what this person was working on. And the sniper story is just one story, there are loads more st

How do the express trains get around the slower stopping trains? Or are you going to entirely remove two thirds of the stops?! I don't think you'll have any risk of crowded platforms, it'll be far too useless a service to att

And you can tell. The Victoria line is way more comfortable than the three lines getting an upgrade that are all hellish, all your round.

What do you mean by missed opportunity? To not run it there more frequently? Can't they still do that? The timetable has seen some updates already.

Some Octopus energy customers have batteries and do this but it's a hefty investment.

That assumption is incorrect. I said > fixed charge I pay the same fixed (daily) standing charge regardless of how much electricity I use. This is normal here. To include it in the calculations makes no sense.

Oh right, I've never had problems there but I've a good selection of decent power supplies. I've been using my Pi 4 supply with the Pi 5, no problems so far but I am only using one USB device (not a disk...). I can see why th

EVs are still relatively new, the idea of a budget version is a good sign even if it's still some way off mass appeal. Although if you look at what low-end new cars cost these days, it's actually not a lot more for the Dacia Sprin

That's the energy only. The delivery of it is fixed charge which doesn't come into this analysis since it's unavoidable in either case.

Strikes me as odd to make an emotional decision over lack of hardware support for something. I'm going to wait and see if I notice a difference, I am told that I won't. And I already know from bitter experience that those other bo

So the suggestion is to buy a flat near b instead? I can't think how else that comment is relevant.

I sometimes I have to do journeys that exceed the range of my EV. I break the journey and charge but I don't need to go to sleep while that's happening. Personally I can't imagine an emergency where I need to travel 500 miles

Where I am in London there're 7.7kW chargers built into some lamposts. It's about 30-40p per kWh depending on when you start. There's also a couple of other providers with roadside chargers in random residential roads. I thin

Thanks for this excellent explanation. I'm not aware of any software that makes this easy e.g. like gitolite or gitlab but I'm pleased to now realise this isn't because it's not possible! I think there would be a lot of

In a monorepo situation, can you restrict read access for certain branches/directories, or is it just writes e.g. push/merge. I was under the impression that isn't really possible given how git works but I thought I'd st

There's not much value in yet another reseller of Broadcom chipsets, they need to keep investing in their own product lines. However, I am pretty biased.

I live in the UK and I use the metric system for pretty much everything, including weighing humans. Everything except driving speed, for obvious reasons.
