Some time ago I listened to my old casette tapes. I was amazed by the 'CD' quality some still had. Tape is more durable than I thought. Also: most floppy disks have dust cleaners. So they are not affected by dusk that much. Also r

And a product might get multiple barcodes. I was a fan of natural keys but it is just too much trouble. For example you have to url encode everything when a key is used in the url. But sometimes I still use natural keys for tables with for

I think in this case it is more like: Government: How much for the tunnel? Company: $5M Government: Ok, but we need it next year and will fine you $20000 every day too late. Company: That's ok. But then it will cost you $200M. Governme

I never noticed those hairy ocelli in bee pictures. Seems like they are for detecting wind direction so they can stay on course in windy conditions.

Related to the topic: it took me almost 3 years to understand what a variable is and does. Looking back I can't understand why it took me so long. It's so obvious. Sometimes it's really hard to understand why some things are

I dont blame Microsoft, but yeah, they are a big reason desktop Linux failed: they just have a user friendlier OS, just like Apple. I've been using Linux for over 10 years at home, but man, all those issues, it's crazy. And every

It is a problem for now because at 0.1ppm we are still years away from getting enough lithium out of the seawater/ocean. Most lithium is 'mined' from salt (water) lakes by evaporation. Which is for now much easier and cheaper

" ... it might hit the sweet spot for studios that need a powerful desktop they can easily carry to the set." Isn't this why a lot of professionals turned to brands like Dell years ago?

Serious question: it looks like the system is training to recognize your face. But is there any way of knowing the false positive rate after the training?

PHP has object checking. This is why I started using value objects in PHP. The VO's I use trow exceptions when you construct them with some bad value. This is great because when you use for example a natural positive integer object you

Andreas Hallberg has a great talk about this[1]: crash early, use explicit types (value objects) and so on. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igFRvriDMqk (GOTO 2015 • Secure Coding Patterns • Andreas Hallberg)

Fast forward is already here, if price is not an issue. Because the brand Carbon has a 3D printer that is not only very fast but also creates production quality results. Adidas for example is printing shoes with them. But having a choise is

I think you are right. But as a brush in a photo editor program it would be great. Then a used can 'mark' what areas need to be smoothed and the result will be great.

This also can happen in open software. So I don't think your comment is valid. Open software enables people to take a look inside to what is going on. It isn't a cure for bug free development.

It would be great to have electric semis in our cities. Less noise and less air polution. This order already show that Tesla's semis are a succes because it's the first small step to a better world.

Even if they sell 5 of them it will be a success I think. Tesla will gather a lot of (electric) truck data no one has. And at the time countries decide to ban polluting trucks Tesla will release an upgraded model.

Fun thing is: pixels don't have a size. They are just 2d locations (with a color assigned). But most devices relate them to screen pixels. And therefore scale coded pixels to the screen density. High density devices can do this in mult

Last week I saw a Model 3 where the back door thought something was in the way and just opened a little bit so the passenger had to squeeze out. Those 'bugs' are a big problem for a company already behind in production. I hope for
