I wonder how many people died of heart attack when they saw this.

On the other hand having 10 times as many bridges could prove to be an impossibility when maintenance costs come knocking.

Iirc in java I managed to parse those just fine. Ages ago though. I also recall actually seeing some web pages somewhere using semicolon, possibly IBM stuff.

School system was created to increase productivity. It is also and equalizer. Unschooled kids from bad backgrounds now start even lower.

Just ban the phones from schools. Because with that you cannot compete. Instant gratification vs hard work?

As you yourself said. Your load is so light you keep it in free tier. Their entire business model is for them to capture you while your load is light and then when you scale the pr…

Leaking school or medical record can have serious personal consequences that cannot even be enumerated

Haha I love explaining things. It gets challenging and sometimes you have to stop the train... What kills me is when I have to convince them of sometand they just are incapable of …

I find smelly things easy to deal with as the solution is clear and the path to it is simple. Other problems may not have a clear path to solution and are not as simple.

This. And alternatively just making hydrogen but storage is a problem with that. So simple with negative peak energy prices...

Just moved our stuff from gitlab to forgejo. Gitlab is fine. Just too much stuff for a small org. And I hated the upgrades. And they kept adding things and none of those were what …

Oh I don't know. It's a vision of java if java tried to supplant C and not C++. I guess jit is bad for a micro service that scales constantly or a lambda. But java does have all of…

I disagree about rust. I would say Rust is a successor to C/C++ for specific use cases. No real successor to java yet so just keep using it, works fine and has finally evolved. Poi…

I once found a very interesting definition of engineering. It is about making something that just barely does the job. Doing it better costs more usually and doing it worse costs l…

Trying to reduce idle power use of a simple esp32 based project I did a while back... Yeah it is indeed tricky. Apple having full control of their hardware supply chain, firmware a…

Ah ofc I forgot. But iirc not everything works and battery life will probably suck, no? So not really a consideration in this case of price comparison. It is an option though :) Pe…

Does MBP run Linux? That would be the selling point for me ... But I guess I am not in a big group. Also MBP is not really repairable at all.

Or just let us set our age in the OS profile? Works for adults and kids.

Best hiring systems I saw were when actual engineers hiring for their team were doing the bulk. You get a gauge of what you can expect and them too.

There was some cheat software that did the same back in the windows 9x/XP days. Dont remember the name but there were many I am sure.

Density is not that important. It's the distribution. Japan for example has most of the population concentrated close to coast. Italy has a few major population centers south of do…

Very well hidden. Ugh. So close to a really good solution but ofc there is always a rider somewhere.

As a parent this is perfect. I am baffled why this is not a standard yet. So setting an account age in Netflix works but the child can access anything. Make new accounts even. So I…

Just make your OS say you are 99. This is all fine until they put some Id verification in. Then anything open is cooked.

Well let's postulate parent set age on that up Ubuntu account to 13. Pornhub will query browser spi, which will query os API. Very elegant. Ofc as soon as you give your child root …
