If someone gave me the chance of a 30-hour work week, I would rather work 4 days of 7,5 hours than 5 days of 6 hours. Just the hassle of getting up early, dressing up for work, commuting etc. isn't really worth it when I'm only go

My name is Sebastian, which was extremely popular in Germany in the early 80s (not once was I the only Sebastian in the classroom). In the USA people would now imagine a small child when hearing my name. It's very interesting how diffe

So what exactly is the "IANA IPv4 Recovered Address Space"? Today's news sounds almost exactly like February 2011 when the IANA announced that it finally allocated the last remaining blocks: http://www.nro.net&#x2F

You can easily always have an empty news feed without any custom CSS or userscripts by simply unfollowing all your friends (unfollwing is not the same as unfriending and can always be reverted with a single click).

As a general rule the more speakers a language has the higher the chance of mostly dubbed content. High quality dubs are not cheap and it's easier to finance it when your target language has a 100 million speaker instead of just 5 mill

It's now available in every larger supermarket even in mid-sized west-German cities, like here in Wuppertal. So somebody must drink it.

I don't like the hosts file approach because I still might want to visit the sites sometimes. For example I block facebook.com on all other site because I don't want to see Facebook embeds, but I want to visit Facebook directly on

You can do that now already, e.g. pretend to quickly step on a road while a car is approaching and watch the human drives hit their brakes. Yet I don't see that happening because the majority of people aren't jerks.

It will be something like a merger of traditional cab services and modern car-sharing services like https://www.car2go.com/ Most of those car-sharing services are owned directly by the large car companies like BMW or Merced

No safety system is perfect and fatal accidents won't drop to zero (even with the best self-driving systems), so I guess people generally won't do 2) because they don't want to get killed.

I think self-driving cars will be introduced very gradually. First only highways where it's really easy for a computer, then maybe American cities. The harder the street layout, the longer we'll have to wait for this technology. S

The author quickly dismisses hard drives because at the time of the Glacier launch SMR drives were to expensive because of the Thai flood. But after a few years of running S3 and EC2 Amazon must have tons of left-over hard drives which are

You failed to mention why it's not the init system's job. An init system which is aware of what's going on can have a lot of advantages. In the end djb's daemontools are nothing more than an init system on top of an in

At least in Germany it wasn't the government collecting the data, they simply forced the ISPs to do so. And when the court ruled the law invalid the ISPs were more than happy to stop the data retention because it cost them a lot of m

How does Tarsnap compare to Arq when using a Mac? Both do local encryption and incremental backups with deduplication. However, I pay $0.03 per GB-month on S3 with Arq and $0.25 on Tarsnap, almost an order of magnitude more expensive. And y

In Germany the major cable providers are currently switching to DS-Lite which means native IPv6 and carrier-grade NAT for IPv4. The cable companies came a bit late to the broadband party and can't get any more large IPv4 block from RIP
