Caching might be your highest bang for the buck, depending on how often you expect someone to return to the app/reload the page it's hosted in.

Public housing does help address one of the roots of the problem - this is a problem with multiple roots. Public housing does not need to factor in rent seeking in their pricing, as housing is end itself, not the means to another end. It al

Hopefully the satire in my original comment was obvious - if not, I'll clarify that it was satire. The priority should be to house everyone before any considerations such as home equity or other concerns are even up for consideration.

Clearly a better alternative to let them die on the streets rather than the unthinkable alternative of having to share walls with a neighbor.

More completely transparent lying from Apple. Time to bust out that absolutely massive fine, EU. Make them regret their nonsense already.

For the sake of comparison, I applied for jobs mid-2022. I applied for 12 positions and got 5 offers, and explicitly rejected by 2 - the remaining 5 I either rejected myself or didn't have time to complete the process. This was also in

Not to discredit any of what you said, but I believe both KTH and CTH are classified as universities, despite what their names imply.

>Don't save electricity. Switch to high efficiency electrical appliances (notably heat pump heating, cooling, water heating) We can do both - switch everything to electric, and simultaneously adopt habits that limit waste of these.

HackerNews has a major problem with regards to victim blaming as it pertains to cyclists, and this thread is clear evidence of it.

What an absolutely deranged comment to make. Are you of the opinion that anyone going even ever so slightly over the speed limit deserves their fate if they happen to crash and get injured or killed? Car drivers do after all break the rules

I used one of these machines for a few years but stopped around 3 years ago. Should I be worried about long-term damage, and if so, how do I go about that? I never noticed anything strange while using it, fwiw.

Per-stream count lacks relevance on the count of the model of paying X% of revenues to the rights holders.

Very blatantly trying to circumvent the spirit of the law. Nothing a lawsuit for 10% of global annual revenues can't solve, though. I truly hope the EU puts down the law here and let Apple know how the find out-phase of their little ga

I think they stopped the washing-kind of recycling in favour of just recycling the material in the early 2000s.

Tesla's employees in Sweden are not represented by a single union. Unions are on a -profession basis in Sweden. Only the employees under IF Metall are called out to a strike. You're literally quoting a letter from Tesla, this has

This is pure propaganda and can be ignored outright. IF Metall are driving these negotiations on behalf of their members working at Tesla - had they not shown any interest, IF Metall would not have bothered.

Spotify found some success with their anti-union campaign, and managed to mostly silently terminate the negotiation. With the layoffs happening this week, I imagine the appetite for picking up these talks again could return. Klarna tried to

It will be interesting to see whether this reinvigorates the unionization push that followed the layoffs early this year.

Payroll tax is paid by the employer, as opposed to income tax which is paid by the employee. Anyone disclosing their salary in Sweden will give their pre-income tax salary, payroll tax not included.

Payroll tax is missing from this listing - for Sweden this is 31.42% in the normal case.
