    It would work anywhere, but only with small amounts of current. In Germany the max is set to 800W. Won’t affect the grid much and standard wiring can easily handle 800W flowing „ba…

    But not just for AI, for all their data center operations.

    From the text it sounds like it looked up if a code was in the flight plan and at which position it was in the plan. It never looked up two codes or assumed there code only be one,…

    But that wouldn't help you here. The flight plan will come in with the code and you'll still have to resolve that to your keys.

    Transferwise makes sense to me. They used to be just about transferring money abroad. By now, they offer full bank accounts including card payments. I guess they dropped the transf…

    I just did a training course and for the ones we used it was still two on the front. Only for children it's front and back.

    As a website owner, I have an incentive to provide access to the Google crawler because of the visitors they send me. They've started to show more content directly, but a fair amou…

    Yes, a lot gets lost in an email vs. video. I'm not saying it has to be a live meeting, but videos of execs talking about strategy often make their ideas much clearer than a writte…

    Since most applications aren't latency sensitive, space and power can be nearly free by setting up the data center in a place where it's cold, there's nearly free electricity and f…

    Not true. I‘ve been at several companies that self host Jira. With the amount of critical data and processes in Jira, it can be comforting to have it on-prem with no one else being…

    But Europe has frequent floodings, they don't seem to be an issue with buried power lines.

    Absolutely, takes me less than 10 seconds. And the process is transparent. Passkeys don't really seem to be faster.

    As Spain is part of the EU, it should at least be good for the EU.

    I don't like passkeys. I'm not sure if I'm using it wrong, but it feels like entering a TOTP is so much faster and easier than using passkeys. It was always easy to enter a 6 digit…

    My employer uses alphanumeric 2 factor codes and I'm so certain that they have a bias towards some letters (mostly y and z). I know I'm probably wrong and it's probably because the…

    Too bad 4k projectors are still so expensive. I bought my 1080p projector 8 years ago and it seems like not that much has changed since then when it comes to prices. 4k projectors …

    My biggest issue with Backblaze B2. It’s so much effort to get my invoice each month. I don’t get why companies send out billing emails but don’t just attach the invoice or insert …

    Many internet users don't even know what the word firewall means. And there are a lot of devices with unpatched software. Obviously NAT shouldn't be seen as a firewall, but for man…

    I'd disagree with most of that, but the panic in goroutines really hits home. It's so annoying to remember implementing recover in every goroutine started to avoid crashing your ap…

    I love the visualisations. It's really hard to make visualisations that are easy to read, look pretty and are still technically accurate. Cloudflare really excels at that.

    I don't think that statement makes sense here. In what way is the user of 1.1.1.1 the product? And for cloud services in general, they mostly tend to be subscription or usage based…
