This was an intentional design decision. We wanted to make sure all the temporal types could be serialize/deserializable, but as you mentioned, you couldn't implicitly go back to t…

I’m sorry I struggle to understand your comment, but I’ll have a go. > Saying “nuclear can handle the easy part” doesn’t help. That’s literally how baseload works, look at France’s…

That’s quite an odd statement to make. The UK certainly does have continuous demand, our overall energy demand has rarely fallen below 25GW in the past couple of years. Right now g…

That’s simply not true, or at least not today. First of, the UK are investing in battery storage, there’s already a rollout of grid-level battery systems across the country*. None …

I don’t think that’s the case anymore. I just popped on to newegg and scrolled through their “best seller” motherboards, none of them have PS/2 ports. They’ve started to die off on…

Its funny because I'm younger than you by a couple of years and I can remember the big parallel ports on keyboards before PS/2 became popular! PS/2 still feels modern to me in comp…
