You can recover the history using their tooling build on top of their bugtracker and GitHub. Specifically they capture the discussions and all small changes over time in their skar…

Not for atomic writes, which is the important bit here. When dealing with concurrency the choice to make us will you allow tears when writing i.e. thread A writes aa and thread B w…

Working on the uniprot services that might be used from the connector it would be nice to learn if this uses public resources or if there is a private anthropic copy of certain uni…

And the Swiss CFF also thinks it is under spending on maintenance. Track maintenance last year was nearly 20% from its target.

Funnily enough, for a long time the lakes of Switzerland had been stuffed into a database table of municipalities at SwissTopo for 2 decades before that was refactored out. Or at l…

Yes, and no, maybe ;) the economic incentives are designed to always provide enough power and no more at the cheapest possible point for that time slot. The market (if free enough)…

The plants that are willing to give supply for the most negative price are the ones that will not be curtailed. So market forces. Basically at such points power plants are paying f…

Primary energy compared to electricity as energy. The first adds energy used in driving, chemical industry etc. the second is just the amount of electricity generated.

I was wondering how the existing case law of translated works, from one language to an other works here. It would at suggest that this is an infringement of the license especially …

There is a significant fine to be paid by the non delivering supplier. This still happens and that is why there is also an auction for reserve power. Oversupply is fined even highe…

RDFa/Microdata is more interesting for people whom sell objects instead of content. e.g. marking up that a page is about a kitchen cabinet that is 60cm wide and in the color white …

I am partial to the approach in https://www.expasy.org/about-chat ;) so yes I can think it can help. Mostly though the use case becomes interesting when you deal with multiple grap…

Yes, it is super sad :( a real pity that a cheap but useful resource gets taken out almost by accident.

I would like to state that good bike lanes and trains also have induced demand. The Netherlands and Switzerland, have demand for more of both (as well as more demand for car lanes …

4 people, for a short term stay is about where it starts to make sense to ride share. Long term, you would have an longer term pass, vastly reducing the cost of a busride, and you …

Yes, in theory, but your process control would be terrible, thus your product would also be terrible. Unless you invent something very clever.

Is it a current trend? my Mom does this and she picked it up in the 70's on typewriters.

Working for an open-data project, I am starting to believe that the AI companies are basically criminal enterprises. If I did this kind of thing to them they would call the cops an…

MilleniumDB is an interesting engine, as is Qlever mentioned in other comments. I think both are good candidates at making RDF graphs one or two orders of magnitude cheaper to host…

There was a microsoft prototype for more stack allocation in OpenJDK ( https://archive.fosdem.org/2020/schedule/event/reducing_gc_t... ). I recall that being put on hold because of…

Java AOT has come a long way, and is not so rare as it used to be. Native binaries with GraalVM AOT are becoming more a common way to ship CLI tools written in JVM languages.

I must say when ever I have the chance I do really enjoy the Cff/sbb dining cars on the swiss network. A real sense of luxury to see the Alps go by drinking a ok coffee or decent b…

Run the UniProt sparql service on it ;) I was lucky to test the yarcdata implementation of sparql on an xmt machine around 2012, super UI but single user.

Could you expand upon this? sounds like an interesting opinion/experience that is worth sharing in more detail.

I think that GO with GO-CAM is definitely going that way. Basic GO is rather simple and can't infer that much (as in GO by itself has low classification or inference logic build in…
