I doesn’t happen nearly enough to be worth the effort. Electricity is cheap, and these mobile services are only worth it if they can charge a premium. And they can only charge a pr…

Although, Maxwell’s cover of This Woman’s Work is outstanding.

When my wife and I went to Italy on our honeymoon, and subsequently decided to use carbonated water as a way of dropping our coke addictions, the next few months felt like I was a …

Exactly this. Hydrogen is like crypto. It has just enough interesting tech to attract (using D&D terminology here) high INT, low WIS people. Hydrogen will probably never work unles…

It would. Yet there is no promising tech in this field. Hydrogen is supported only to draw support away from EVs. If hydrogen becomes inexpensive to produce, it will by by way of s…

I think you have the right definition here. People aren't rational. They are rationalizers. Rational thinking is when you use facts and draw a conclusion. Rationalizing is when you…

Question ... were they Reserved instances, or On Demand? IIRC, you still pay for Reserved instances, whether or not they're on.

Most things like this are organized by bad-faith actors that know that his skit wasn't hateful. The powers-that-be have learned how to create viral movements. They know how to get …

Django is the absolute worst. I just finished two projects with it. It's OO hell full of side effects. We are using feathersjs now, which solves most of the same problems Django di…

Yes, because Trump was totally strong against other countries. He was a useless little bitch against China, Russia, North Korea, and anyone else willing to pay him a couple dollars…

I find that playing music occupies the part of my brain that is easily distracted. This allows the productive part of my brain to work without distractions. Without music, the easi…

The thing I like about Elon, is that when he is attacked for not being perfect, everyone goes back to this one thing that happened. If the worst thing you can bring up about him is…

I hate when corporations are like "how can we pretend to care without doing anything of substance". I know that some asshole with a fountain pen in a board room came up with this i…
