The slogan "Wer hat uns verraten? – Sozialdemokraten!" has a rather long history. Coined by communist during the 1918 November Revolution, it referenced the social democrats at lea…

EU commissioners are similar to minsters/secretaries in national governments. My chance of getting within earshot of German federal minister are only slightly better than those of …

Depending on how long you worked in Germany and where you retire, you might still be eligible for German public health insurance.

Your post is unnecessarily pedantic. The point the article makes is that they have a dedicated line to the next router unlike cable (DOCSIS) or GPON fiber where already the bandwid…

My experience with a large-ish ($5m/year) AWS account was quite different. They were happy to support us with cost optimizations, discounts, and one time credits for certain activi…

You’re brushing too broad a stroke GDPR only affects personal information. There’s plenty of sensitive business information that is not covered by GDPR - for example per business c…

There’s been a lot of progress (Temporal, URL, TextDecoder, Base64 encoding, etc.) but there are still gaps. Math.clamp is a big one (it’s a TC39 proposal). I’d also love to have t…

What do you think they should’ve done when faced with a legal warrant from the jurisdiction they operate in?

Heat pump exists. I’d rather burn gas in the (mostly existing) gas plants than put more gas pipes into the ground.
