The article is the usual PR piece on startup sectors in the EU. Unfortunately, writing hype articles like that do not make things better. From my personal observation, there is a huge difference in funding/regulatory/technology ad

This sounds like the reprisals citizens of the totalitarian states in the Warsaw Pact had to endure. Heads up for pushing against it. Out of curiosity, do you know if there are any people trying to challenge these rulings/treatment th

Another approach to attack the holy grail of self cleaning surfaces: Damaged surface segments on self cleaning materials form a point of 'dirt crystalization'. From these points, dirt starts to cover the surface. This problem is a

I am looking to replace my good old faithful IBM X61. Currently, size wise, it's only the 2016 Macbook that has made an impression on my eye - and I am not really happy with putting so much money on the table for a sub-par performance

True, biology is a horror show full of surprises. Many experimental instructions are as reliable as astrologic forecasts. I guess that is the price of complexity and the human factor . I would love to hear more about your work, and the str

Interesting. How would you minimize these type of errors by design or best practice? I guess languages with a lack of higher order abstractions and no strong type system might be more prone to this type of errors.

I agree that it is old news. Orwell's "1984" with its scary concepts of mass control and indoctrination is even older. Whenever I read about those TVs I have to think about how dehumanizing the outcome of the dystopian story
