I suppose, hypothetically, you could gather up the excess fuel in the forests and burn it in a power plant. Probably impractical at scale though..

Given how European car companies, German in particular, are sticking their heads in the sand and lobbying the commission to delay the EV transition, I suspect the end game will be …

Apparently there is a plan for interoperability between vipps and wero. https://epicompany.eu/media-insights/bancomat-bizum-epi-sibs...

This is about replacing a turboprop with a slightly smaller turboprop and electric motor/generator+battery. The turboprop burns Jet-A, not leaded aviation gasoline.

But if it does, we'll make sure the plane crashes outside the environment.

Operation from aircraft carriers, obviously. /s

So we should ignore the Mirai sales numbers and conclude, uh, what, that the entire $40B investment is wasted and hasn't produced anything of value? Or if we want to be charitable,…

Um, Europe had pretty ubiquitous copper phone wiring long before cellular became a thing. Many developing countries, however, were able to leapfrog the wired phones stage.

Some engines, nowadays mostly large marine diesels, are reversible. Change the valve timing, and start it in the opposite direction, and off it goes.

I work in HPC and at some point we had a dozen or so racks with blade systems in our cluster. IIRC it was HP c7000 blade enclosures, 16 nodes in a 10U chassis. We had 4 such chassi…

Here in Northern Europe there seems to be something of a renaissance of traditional linseed oil paints, both because of people being more environmentally conscious and wanting to a…

Yes. Why the heck do LLM's produce prose like this? It's de facto standard in the narration for all these slop videos drowning YouTube. No human writes like this, so what is the tr…

E.g. on this link you can see a picture of how the yards on a square rigger would be set for each wind direction. https://www.facebook.com/groups/patrickobrianappreciationsoc... At…

Rust and Ada are about equally safe, both have advantages and disadvantages. Perhaps you're thinking about SPARK ADA, but that's a different kettle of fish. It's a bit like saying …

But thanks to the magic of the Interwebs, most of those jobs don't have to be in the city, region, or even the same country as the one where the DC is located. So for a local polit…

If the owner of the stack (Logio or whatever it was called, see upthread) doesn't understand it, the consultants will run wild and soon it will require a hectare-sized datacenter r…

Which in turn relies on a stack largely written in, shock and horror, C, such as the Linux kernel, libc, openssl, nginx, etc. etc. Even if you believe language X to be the bees kne…

Good news for FOSS FPGA toolchains, I suppose. Eg https://f4pga.org/ for some kind of umbrella project.

The inevitable drama between Kent and Theo would melt the internet, for sure. Bring the popcorn.

The question is whether the current situation is a short burst of action, and once those most critical bugs get fixed the hype around AI vulnerability scanning will die down, or wh…

AFAIU EuroOffice is a fork of OnlyOffice, which is a project with a codebase completely separate from LibreOffice.

Can you name a specific example of a trade secret revealed in the article?

Unfortunate naming. I thought this was about https://libxc.gitlab.io/ but there's an extra '0' in the name here.

The Linux kernel is another example. The 2.5 development cycle (which led to the stable 2.6 series) was brutally long, and distros resorted to back-porting new features into their …
