It apparently does make short-term economic sense because we use 6 million km^2 of cropland to feed our animals instead of us directly. https://ourworldindata.org/global-land-for-agriculture It does not make sense long-term

Reinforcing this. Yes, it is slightly bulkier than say a Pixel, but for that you get a phone where everything is screwed using standard parts, nothing is glued and the battery can be swapped without any tools. So building a repairable phone

Sometimes you really wonder where your time went. You can spend 1 hour writing a perfect function and then the rest of the day figuring out why your import does work in dev and not in prod. I also once butchered the result of 40 hours of wo

The numbers I find a bit confusing here. "The Starlink constellation could serve up to 188.160 MB/sec to Earth." So is that dot a decimal point? I suppose so, because it's used like that in the following numbers "9,

What bugs me: in most companies, especially ones where people do mostly knowledge-based work like Authy does, almost everyone has some kind of unique information on them. No matter how good your project management and code base, most people

My office does not have windows (the hole in the wall, not the OS). Also, I usually don't want to know the weather right now, but in the next couple of hours or rest of day. It's not a obsession, it's a handy piece of informa

What's the alternative though? I don't want to buy the overpriced hardware that comes with Apple. For Linux, I'd like something that provides some kind of stability without me having to search for obscure shell commands for f

I guess that in the emergency case the phone will automatically determine the GPS position. For the fire departments it might make sense to discard the automated calls if the position is on a serviced skiing slope during the slopes operatio

I don't see the imminent main threat for professionals to be honest. Even today, the worth of a professionals work (be it artist or developer) is not the ability to look up how to do something specific or to churn out good looking, but
