I stumbled upon this video a few days ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy-wFixuRVU so recycling the batteries of the vapes is apparently a thing

over 200 comments and not one mention of Threema, come on!

And this is exactly why that report is somewhat misleading. On the cheaper end of cars, a lot of those are not maintained regularly, and this is the reason why they fail in the fir…

A bit of a strange article. Of course they are right that VW is struggeling. But to suggest to only favour tech monopolist solutions is from a strategic standpoint a really bad ide…

Any article about modern airships, failing to mention CargoLifter ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CargoLifter ) is woefully incomplete

It's pretty simple, they are all bad, aren't they? Especially all the network configuration variants went from bad to worse over the time.

I think its not fair to put the Elbphilharmonie in the same category. The original plan looked very different from what was later realized. Which was a significant driver of the co…

Since the number of dependencies is way less then in the JS world, its possible to pin them down manually. If you absolutely need to have multiple versions of the same dependency, …

The point is, that in a moderately complex Java project that might be something on the order of 150-200 dependencies, and updating just one of those usually doesn't lead to a big c…

Even then the cost of utility scale solar and wind was not that much higher than it is now.

I still think plus is fine in this case. And really, my expectation is, that anybody who thinks about adding a months, knows about their own intention. Because I suspect just addin…

Just because the air isn't prewarmed in his original setup, it doesn't mean its no heat pump.

It was reported about it in the German press. I'm an opponent of nuclear power, but in this case I can only shrug and conclude that everything worked as expected, the issue was ide…

I wan't drop a single tear. Every time I rented from Hertz it put strange additional charges on my tab.

Just from some discussions from the last weeks, I don't think simple is possible anymore: just Unicode and Font Rendering by themselves have a complexity which boggles the mind. If…

I bet if they would have just given each Afghan a monthly stipend of the same amount, there would have been peace in no time.

Any good recommendations for logging? (Embedded environment with SD card)

And even that is not entirely true. The TGV can only run this fast because it runs on tracks where only the TGV is allowed. The rail bed is even not that great, that's why only som…

Does anybody have real world experience (and maybe data) for websockets when used in a mobile environment (with a lot of dropped connections)?

Maybe you might enjoy having a look at what Zed Shaw (of Rails is a ghetto fame) does: https://github.com/zedshaw/learn-painting-the-hard-way https://zedshaw.com/category/art/

Never seen this! Is there something similar for other brands?

The pricing is way too high. The price should be compared to a car sharing program, not with a taxi service. The trip to school for my kid would cost, when using a car from a car s…

I think with chocolate its much easier to practice restraint. My children have access to endless sweets, but they seldom take advantage of it. But with the iPad its a different bal…
