> Does the radiant heat not increase the room temperature, thus affecting the indoor temp sensor? C Yes but the temperature of the air in your home is only one part of it. The othe…

You have no clue about the armies of people online who think hydroponic home farms will be a serious and significant source of food then.

I think you missed the part where I said I built the same system and enjoyed it and learned a lot from it.

I love the idea of hydro/aquaponics and built a system as a student more than a decade ago. It’s a fun project. But as a form of agriculture it’s a spectacularly bad idea at home. …

Thank you both for sharing.

Could you also add your thoughts on whether you think a B1 level is a sensible requirement for permanent residence in any country? Because that's what the post seems to boil down t…

There's some people that say having no airconditioning, no dishwasher, no elevator, no computer, no smartphone isn't as bad as it sounds. And they're completely right, for them. An…

Exactly this, he should've just fixed this, or not written an article about it. After the 'sensorium effect' (he should've used ancient greek for a +10 bonus to archaic intellectua…

Quite annoying to have to read a paragraph of text next to a moving image. I right-clicked every GIF and turned off 'loop'. Beyond that reading an AI piece just feels like a waste …

I thought it was quite the opposite, too easy. Your ship recharges health. Also you can claim and island and heal there. It's so easy to the point it's actually boring, I got 10 ki…

These aren't comparable situations. For one it's a peace-time situation where strong-arming interventions are met with consequences, in this case China can stop supply of critical …

'breaking records' implies a lot more than it is. The amount of breaths anyone takes in their life also continues to break their own personal record, but it's not as impressive as …

It's obviously both in different circumstances. I've had plenty of raises while the rest of my team didn't, and when I stopped doing what I was doing, I joined them.

PHEVs are typically discouraged in many countries nowadays, because drivers fall into one of two categories: A) plug-in to charge on a (virtually) daily basis at home B) plug-in to…

Netherlands here, it's great. Idk about Spain.

I think at the upper range, and for Teslas, this is true. But for the rest, not quite yet. Suppose you buy an entry-level Renault 5, the WLTP range is 310km. In mild conditions you…

It's more like the recent events trigger people's awareness and learning about multi-year trends that are happening regardless of recent events. EVs are a good deal in much of the …

I didn't say work hard. But if you keep contributing what you already contributed previously and nothing changes, your salary likely also doesn't change. Changing that doesn't nece…

I was at my previous company for almost 10 years, I had annual promotions and I roughly 4x'd my annual income in this period, which averages to about 15% of year-on-year pay increa…

I don't understand your comment tbh...

For me it's as much culture as it is work. In fact I live in the capital city of my country, even though my work has not always been here. I live here because it has world class re…

Uff Blue Burst, fantastic online game, it's one of those blasts of sheer nostalgia that is almost unbearable, I'd give everything to go back. It's partly the game, and partly my li…

This is by the way how the defense was treated for decades as well. US resisted the EU from building a formidable army, instead they preferred a vassal state defense, enough to det…

Yes at the pay page there's a 'pay by X' list of options, you choose it. You then typically have two choices: scan QR with your phone or login to your bank. I normally open my bank…

Not implausible he hit those numbers, electric car ranges depend on a lot of factors, and he likely had a very small and favorable sample to get him to 258 wh/mile. Some factors to…
