Read up on the Koch method. To be exact: Koch method with Farnsworth timing. You'll have to keep the letters in a certain speed so your brain does not have enough time to decode do…

HAM was a nice rabbit hole to fall into, but unfortunately I couldn't muster enough interest to actually get good enough to go "on air". Some other things that surprised me and may…

The normalization of the age variable still looks problematic, as it requires that there is a linear dependency between age and incidence. Both the scatter plot and also the probab…

I think when thinking about progress as a society, people need to internalize better that we all without exception are on this world for the first time. We may have collectively fi…

Yes, that is plausible indeed, but the problem is that there are many explanations which are plausible, but there doesn't seem to be a smoking gun. Strange about that explanation f…

Yes, I think it's wrong, or at least way over-exaggerated. You can run a grid to supply approximately 80% renewables (long-term average) without significant technical changes. Only…

> crap like that report > Only those working closely in that profession have any knowledge of the underlying causes. This report is literally from the ENTSO-E which is the main reg…

That being said, I was apparently also under the impression of outdated or just plain wrong information. While the report I listed mentions the sudden loss of decentralized generat…

> It's not that easy, and the 2025 blackout good evidence of that. Renewables need a grid that's engineered for them and that require significative investments. The outage in spain…

Then we are just talking about two different things. On ISP level, routing tables are built via BGP. BGP needs Autonomous Systems (AS) as organization unit to work. If you are not …

> This also describes transit and describes getting internet service at home. Well no. Transit means that you use another AS (usually by a larger ISP) to get connectivity to a cert…

Well, there is always a regulatory measure that would be a lot easier to implement: Lawmakers could just disallow Tier 1 carriers to provide consumer Internet access. (This forced …

Peering just means that two AS physically connect to each other directly. Whether this peering is paid or not is independent from the technical implementation. Just nearly everybod…

DTAG are also a consumer ISP. A consumer ISP should be considered a utility, and utilities can also be forced to provide certain services. In addition, Internet Exchanges have beco…

Regulating peering within the EU would already be a win. The providers are then free to either move out of the EU market, or let their non-EU traffic flow via the (then likely larg…

Small tangent, but I feel like it is a good time to drop the term "net neutrality", which covers way too much ground. In the past in political discussions, the term "violation of n…

I think you are reading too much into it indeed. I just paraphrased what the author called "My teenage daughter went mad." I explicitly do not want to make a statement about the no…

Also, browsing through the rest of the blog, the author seems to be deep in the "incel" social darwinism rabbit hole, which explains why they have so much difficulty to shoe-horn e…

What a strange article. To summarize, a guy is rejecting the current opinion about the autism spectrum, seemingly because they struggle to understand behaviour of their daughter on…

For everybody reading this and scratching their head why this is relevant: Python subclassing is strange. Essentially super().__init__() will resolve to a statically unknowable cla…

I loved the game, but I can see where people struggle. You cannot laser-focus on the objective. Just get in character, you are on a mysterious ship, it's completely abandoned and s…

For me this sounds just like the lecturer inserted some casual sexism. I can say from my own experience at least at my university, that "Altherrenhumor" ("old gentleman humor") lik…

Yes, this is the most obvious omission of the article. It really made me think about the kind of social dynamics that must be going on in an international and culturally-diverse re…

The detection of solutions seems a bit buggy. In the fourth task "Add the angles BAC and EDF on the given line GH", I drew the circles DF and EF in, then connected E and F with a l…

If you understand German, there is a great explanation how the energy market in Europe works here: https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/plusminus/teurer-strom-wie... It explains why c…
