Or, you know, sell all the GPUs and buy a bunch of batteries. Crypto mining is not needed to do grid balancing and wasting energy on pointless computation is always worse than short-term storage.

Hard disagree. I’d imagine the average worker affected here doesn’t get to 'recuperate with their family' but rather have to look for a job over the holidays while trying to keep up a facade for kids & family. And it’s not lik

This is obviously completely anecdotal but I've been noticing the same whenever I’m on holiday here in Europe or abroad. My girlfriend and I like to guess where other tourists we see on the streets are from and one of the most obvious

There’s already plenty of cities with all-electric public transit systems, including bus fleets. In the US, Lancaster CA is a model city & they have plenty of resources online documenting their transition

I think that’s a fair question. The grass is always greener but most are thinking about Scandinavian countries or the Netherlands. For me, climate change should also factor into this. While Germany will probably be fine temperature wise, I’

It’s hard not to be pessimistic in Germany these days. Population is aging and paying for the retirement money for all existing retirees is already taking up over 25% of government spending. There’s barely money for anything else so taxes a

This is a heavily outdated opinion. The "default" react experience nowadays is Next.js and that is definitely a framework not a library.

No I’m talking about your run of the mill unsalted butter. Even what I felt were "premium" choices (organic, expensive etc) had "natural flavourings" in them. Here’s a few I could find from a quick search: https:/&

My biggest confusion when shopping for butter in the US was trying to find one without added "butter aroma". If I’m already buying butter, why does it need flavourings of the very thing it’s made of? I think we ended up settling f

When tunneling through a VPN ideally thousands of users will share the same exit IP. So even if all your apps "phone home" identifiable information there is no way to prove that whatever traffic "the law" is trying to pi

Eh not sure about this one. With SoH decreasing the internal resistance increases and the battery inherently becomes a fire hazard. At some point the energy required for cooling will not be justifiable and the battery will have to be decomm

Yeah the SVG and animation are cool but the blog post is phenomenal! Great stuff!

Not necessarily. "Optimising" a process doesn't always mean increasing per-operator throughput with the goal of reducing the amount of operators required to keep the lights on. You can optimise for many other things such as o

At a previous employer I helped build an employee monitoring system that was essentially a keylogger and would also take screenshots periodically and on every click. All this data was piped into our cloud and could be used by middle managem

Gitlab does the exact same thing only to then reject you because you haven’t had a previous tenure last longer that ~3 years. Strange culture.

Yes, but this one is fairly easily distinguished and will also not harm you unless consumed in great quantities.

I always find it hard to trust articles like this. Call me cynical but in the opening paragraph the author clearly states that they make their money from other algorithms that lose money. They therefore have a vested interest in filling the

It’s been raining quite a bit here in southern Germany so my better half and I are going out to find some mushrooms tomorrow. The last few years have not been great for foraging since it has been quite dry but this year I have some hopes. W

I used to work for a company optimising business processes. You’d all be surprised by just how much money large companies waste by paying invoices twice and/or paying invoices that nobody can trace back to a purchase order.

I had a look at your job postings being located in the DACH region myself but I must admit I’m surprised you find anybody willing to work for the salaries listed. I get that you’re not competing with FAANG salaries and kudos for mentioning

The conspiracy theorist in me wants to believe that the M2 MBP only exists to make the increased price on the Mac Book Air look more competitive. It’s an old sales trick. Show the customer three products in different price ranges to get the

While the story itself certainly is cute, this article somehow reinforces all prejudices I hold against the London bourgeoisie.

I have an old purple Yo t-shirt that I got at some hackathon around 2014. I love the idea of it but in reality it’s a hideous colour and terribly cut so you basically can’t wear it at all.

I'm not too familiar with the space but this sounds very similar to the solution Cloudflare acquired a few months ago called 'Zaraz'. Looks like this really will be the next level of user tracking.

Thanks for the reply! My experience is that the sad reality of most large businesses is a vast landscape of systems introduced over decades and glueing them together with some RPA tool is a necessary evil if you want to achieve some level o

Looks great! Out of curiosity, how do you plan to compete with & distinguish yourself from well-funded players in the space like Integromat[1] etc? [1] https://www.integromat.com

Or you could do either of: 3. massive bonuses for execs and wage increases for white-collar workers 4. stock buybacks and dividends to directly distribute profits to shareholders Let’s not pretend that both of these don’t happen at the cost

I‘m not sure if building a Nigerian solution for an American problem is really the way to go. If I were you I would try to think of a Nigerian problem that can only be solved by a Nigerian solution.
