If some business is defensively buying off all the competition, that’s an easy ATM for a serial entrepreneur, especially if the large business is price gouging: found a competitor,…

Complex systems are difficult to predict or reason about, especially in turbulent times, and when only partial information about the world is available, and only part of it is accu…

Well, it’s a medication designed for diabetes (the weight loss variant has a higher dosage and different brand name, Wegowy or so), and for diabetes the usage is, by default, perma…

The unfortunate side-effect is also that as US does not honor guarantees given in the Budapest memorandum, no country is going to give up nuclear weapons trusting contracts, and th…

My client dies the logging, and I can e.g. grep decade old logs. I’m not sure if you can get same level of access to Discord logs (=export them). I guess Discord bot that logs ever…

IRC <3 Still daily driving it with some friends. I wouldn’t be surprised if my Discord chat history was unavailable in a decade, so IRC is a nice option to run on the side. There’s…

Well, to be fair ”from foo delete” would do the same I suppose :-D Unless there’d be an explicit end to the statement to designate you really want to delete everything. Which might…

I sort of feel the same…but on the other hand if you consider ”delete from” exists also, it’s not completely unsensible to consider you first tell what operation you’re about to pe…

Probably an unpopular opinion, but as an Apple user it is okay for me to pay 30% extra (which I often do instead of using Android and getting certain apps for free), so I avoid hav…

I like to think this via car analogy: you have similar ecosystem with car infotainment system platforms, but there the cost of switching is often minimum tenfold. Game consoles are…

In 100k years there’s much less need to process it anycase, the waste is very front-heavy in its radioactive harmfulness. Of course it’s still chemically harmful later on, but it d…

We do have large peat reserves (AFAIK some estimates compare the total amount to Norway’s oil reserves), but usage of peat has been decreasing/phased out for climate and environmen…

Yeah, and to my understanding we're not specifically looking for it as the uranium isn't really that expensive at the moment. The largest plant in Finland needs 128 tons of uranium…

As a Finn I think this is the correct way. To add to some other comments here I presume uranium is so abundant even if we multiply our usage that the opportunity cost of reusing th…

The previous main daily driver Android I owned was a Nexus 5 which lost OS updates in less than 3 years after purchasing it new. That’s one important aspect of quality Android is s…

As General Adolf Ehrnrooth aptly put it ”Ei enää koskaan yksin”, ”We should never again defend ourselves alone” as the lesson of the Winter War. Glad that we finally acted on that …

Long overdue, but better late than never. Although the circumstances are grim due to the war in Ukraine, I’m happy we can be in alliance with our European and Northern American kin…

Personally I’d probably check Patrick Boyle’s videos from Youtube as a start. IMHO he tends to do a good job in summarizing these cases (bear in mind I might not be the best judge …

The gas was already off, so what would’ve the US exactly achieved with it, accounting for the non-trivial risk of getting caught?

As a quick note, while containers offer a degree of isolation, depending on your use case you might not want to put too many eggs into that basket (Linux privilege escalation bugs …

I meant the aws configure import which they added — point it to the credentials csv and the cli handles adding the entry to the credentials file. Sometimes you might need to use st…

Hindsight is 20/20, but definitely one of those places where flat out giving the credentials should not even be an option (or it should be made artificially tedious and/or explicit…

If I’m checking if a domain is free, I usually use ”nslookup example.com” or ”dig example.com” — if they return NXDOMAIN, it is not reserved yet. I haven’t had an issue at least wi…

I would be more interested in having this for car entertainment systems, smart televisions, and like TBH. For my iPhone this probably causes me to install less apps and avoid subsc…

There’s definitely going to be a market opportunity in publishing the James Joyce’s Ulysses in a limited edition shampoo bottle format. The perfect vanity gift for that special som…
