I was wondering wow direct are these donations going straight to the army vs the Ukrainian state? The state will need a lot of money (especially foreign) to keep everyone fed and to rebuild. Especially if things go much worse. Obviously the

Not being able to call emergency services with a phone is completely unacceptable. I am only posting to add that with my pixel 3 I am having issues with incoming calls being dropped or the interface not allowing me to accept an incoming cal

I was just about to write about the game, too. What a brilliant game it was. I just made the connection between the title of the second game (Smoking mirror) and the plot when reading the article. I remember that I found the name of the gam

Potentially it is worth looking at the difference between EU countries and the UK. Not a perfect experiment one Data-Point to Data-Point basis, but maybe useful on an aggregate basis. What I don't understand with this particular issue

To be honest, the lamb pre and post restoration do only look vaguely similar. This does not only look like a simple refresh of paint, but rather like somebody painted a caricature. Quite obvious is that eyes and ears are in different places

The real problem with dominant software solutions is their scale. In the worst case that means that if you don't make the criteria for one job, you don't make it for any job. Even if you fail for something stupid. From the compani

I wonder if the loss of biodiversity during the anthropocene will lead to a post-anthropocenic explosion once humans (which might be the biggest evolutionary constraint at the moment) are gone. If that happens it will be a shame for humans

Apparently this was because luxury goods were imported and if bought in sufficient quantity lead to draining of money from Rome to the exporting economies and trade routes, essentially supporting potential enemies while weakening local prod

Are you aware of any volunteer org in the UK that specializes in providing technical support for disaster relief? I am currently looking of joining a volunteer group to make a difference to the community while potentially picking up some sk

The THW is organised similar to an army and has equipment to restore infrastructure in the event of a catastrophe (natural or man-made) and to build temporary protections if required. Similar to pioneers they can provide quick temporal solu

You seem to have a good setup, but if you are looking for a solution to share easily between people, have a look at Metabase. It works pretty well, if your data lives in a DB hosted somewhere and you only want to plot data that can be deriv

Kleppmanns books (as this talk) references spreadsheets and the underlying programming model of Functional Reactive Programming. You essentially define a variable as a function of inputs it depends on, and it gets recalculated if any of the

There is one thing where engineering and organisation building differ though, even at the high-level: available sources and trusted guides, and iteration speed. For something that is such a common problem, that basically every company has t

The way I see it this is part of the execution, although often overlooked in favour of product-market fit. Trying to scale an organisation by hiring when the organization is not fit for that scale is like trying to deploy a product at scale

The biggest issue: you cannot not give them your personal data that they then loose. Let me contribute with an anecdote from yesterday (slightly off-topic but I promise to get around to it at the end). So just yesterday I needed to create a

Maybe that is because you start with pencils that are too long to start with? This machine allows you to start off with shorter pencils that you can extend on demand. This way you are likely to loose less pencil whenever you loose one.

Correct. Wikipedia says it was named after the inventor Karl Drais who invented the dandy horse, the predecessor to the bicycle. Interestingly, he did not invent the Draisine on rails, though, just another mode of transport that in some way

I agree. This allows you to switch on autonomous driving when driving to unfamiliar places, long distance, and for cases where you would make more than $8.50/hour by working while the car drives. Or just because you had a drink and wan

That was exactly my motivation of asking this question. If you have a substantial disposable income available year-on-year, you have the option to decide whether to just pay-off your mortgage and then work in something of high personal valu

Have you ever lived next to a road in a city? I can tell you that the most noise comes from revving engines. There is a also a massive difference between noise a normally driven ICE vehicle makes compared to an electric one at city speeds.
