It is not worth the bother. I really wish I had a source for this because it stills feels important, and I value links more than most. Links would be nice but it does not add enough value to be worth it, it actually costs too much and is ea

And it is also easy to waste time on multi year projects that does not fit you current audience. If you present the result you need to slant it in the correct way to sell subscription. This is very visible with journalist that live on the w

Familiarity, Enterprise, last is hardware. If you buy a Windows machine first then you always run the risk of Linux having to play catch up hardware wise. I have not had a hardware problem with a new install since 2004. Familiarity being us

Fair point! From a personal perspective it was about interfacing with the real world like parsing data, bitbanging or writing drivers. I actually have no problem with doing BI web apps with COBOL.

This has been happening since before 9/11 how much I do not know. I never travel with digital gear to the US. I do not work in any secret capacity but my employer prohibits me from brining any work equipment through the border to the U

Nationalism is not compatible with freedom. When I was young I thought liberties that we viewed as important were something that was provided to all. That it should not matter where you come from. I still think everyone should strive for th

This is not for that kind of setup, this is more of a button you press to get internet when you need it IMHO. It is 1 watt idle, so you need 24Wh to keep it running if there is no sun. On bad short days you might get 5% of solar power. A ba

This seems like good and standard advice does not seem to be controversial at all. I think the question is which practical foods are healthy.

Yeah that tracks. In the mornings your body is still in sleep mode so carb intake will take longer to be absorbed. If you have diabetes you need more insulin and a longer time for it to have affect. So for sure eating slow release carbs wil

Not comparable depending on how you deliver it, but this is how I head a couple alcoholists describe it when they stop drinking. They miss the feeling and constantly feel that their new self is not worth as much (because of X).

I do not understand you guys, I do not care about my taxes. They are fairly complex by Swedish Standards because I deliberately loose money In some area that gives me tax cuts, but not overly so. Every year I get a digital form to sign from

I know nothing of your objections, so this is more about how I think of mine and how they relate to these kinds of changes. Being a power users is difficult, I think the best way to do software is to make it APL complicated and only educate

Common thing in bad relations is ignoring the situation of your debtors or creditors. It is always a business deal so the last thing you want to bring is hurt feelings. My second development deal was a 75k debt that fell through. It was a g

In the cities I have been to this is not my experience, at least in South America and the Nordics. The wear and tear of lots of people means you need to design things differently in well visisted areas, but there a square meter sees more pe

I have seldomly seen insightful comments from LLMs. It is usually better than "comment what the line does" usefull for getting a hint about undocumented code, but not by much. My experience is limited, but what I have I do agree w

10W idle for edge appliances is crazy when you think about it. On a yearly basis if you lower consumption by one watt it saves you 8.5kWh My network and internet access needs between 1-15W, I save about 80kWh compared to this setup. Even wi

That it is not leaders, these are experts in government agencies that work for the best of the people. The difference is that you have to give them responsibilities and trust them as a society.

What the leadership does will be mirrored down to the grunt. I have never lead a multi billion dollars corporation but from my view if your team can discard someone easily, they can also bear not having that person around for two weeks. Or
