To add to the topic, in NL you, as an owner of a property, are obliged to report to municipality if your property is vacant for one year. This is to prevent squatting. Very recently U.S. investor Blackstone reported ~300 apartments at once

The article is not actually about observability and why it requires a columnt store but a marketing article about Honeycomb's database, IMO. The topic is better explained in another article they link to - https://www.honeyco

There are no direct health risks. What hits you in old age is not programming but bad habits - bad posture when sitting, too much sitting and not enough physical activity and excercising, and others. Those are possible to offset or fix. Com

Why not? At the end, fines are another form of taxes. As I mentioned in another comment, in Netherlands there is such law in place. If the apartment is not occupied for a year then you have to report it to municipality and they will arrange

That's easy. There is a such law for apartments in Netherlands. In NL you have to report apartment to the municipality if it's not occupied for a year and they will arrange something for you. Sure it won't be very profitable

And then you still will spread your focus. You'll have to summarize in paralel with trying to understand a professor. That doesn't work well and very tiresome. Why not to watch a recording of a lecture in the first place and pause

I wonder if the same experience can be applied to other languages. That's because in the experiment the subjects were learning another language with completely different alphabet from English. The study was done, I assume, in US since

That could also be explained by pure economy. It's too costly to support many communication channels so they just focus on the ones that brings more money. And Whatsup is one of major chat platforms in Netherlands due to historical rea

I doubt it's coming from French since initial invention was made in Germany. It's Draisine in Engligh, French, German, and in many languages it's called similarly, sometimes with little spelling deviations.

I'm actually not sure if the original title is explaining the article well. The article is about evolution of personal micromobility - form factors, business models, etc.

There were a lot of news in last decade about many breakthrough but they are still not on the market. So don't raise your hopes too high, time will show whether it's a breakthrough or just yet another small step forward.

I wonder how can we make assumptions about the bird songs while not taking into account how birds perceive the sound. For humans it's easier, there were a plenty of studies done in that regards and there is even a separate science fiel

I assume that that was a point in regards with $100 mini-pc (think ARM-based one). Your 12-year old device likely has more performance comparing to those modern and cheap pc's.
