I once read that noise of camera in total darkness is apparently a good source.

The federation in Germany is one lesson from the Nazis. Centralised power makes it easier for fascism or totalitarian governments to emerge. Recent example is the US with the instrument of executive orders. So it is deliberately designed to keep Germany small.

Only fascist have an issue with antifascists.

What would be strange are hackers that are fascist. Fascism demands surrender to power and obedience, which is antithetical to the hacker sprit. Questioning systems, equalizing power imbalances is the hacker spirit.

First look shows me that this is not an easy drop in replacement. First thing is this requires a log-in and makes me wonder why this is required. Perhaps some upselling coming.

With Bitnami discontinuing their offer, we recently switched to other providers. For some we are using a helm chart and this new offer provides some helm charts but for some software just the image. I would be interested to give this a try but e.g. the python image only various '(dev)' images while the guide mentions the non-dev images. So this requires some planning.

EDIT: Digging deeper, I notice it requires a PAT and a PAT is bound to a personal account. I guess you need the enterprise offering for organisation support. I am not going to waste my time to contact them for an enterprise offer for a small start-up. What is the use case for CVE hardened images that you cannot properly run in an CICD and only on your dev machine? Are there companies that need to follow compliance rules or need this security guarantee but don't have CICD in place?

With the difference that with docker you are shipping the runtime to your source code as well.

This article resonated with my experience building what was essentially a distributed task queue using Redis+PostgreSQL with Python workers in Kubernetes. It seems like these systems naturally evolve different patterns based on their specific use cases. The logic of our queue was intertwined with a rule engine. I wrote about building a rule engine here [1]. Another difference to this article is that it did not report back to the client as the events were delivered via web hooks.

There are some different approaches here and there which come from making it application specific, e.g. we added a periodic reconciliation check. I also built a debouncer into the queue to give special treatment to burst in the load.

On Safari it is just a black screen.

Gameplay wise this is super basic and has been done endless times before. It looks like a "hello world" of games, so maybe focus on bringing either quality or novelty.

It does not even have to be successful. After getting repeated feedback about my strengths as an entrepreneur and how it is not a good fit for that position, I am now toning that down a lot. YC advertises that funding a company is always good career choice because even if you fail it will be good in your CV. But my experience so far is that many companies see it as a red flag.

No, it is just one option you can select.

Gaussian splatting does not use neural nets. It runs an optimizer on the Gaussian splattering parameters. I think in your comment you are talking about Neural Radiance Fields (Nerfs).

Ran into a bug where a double tap zoomed the page and it broke the game as I could not zoom out again. Unfortunately it does not save the progress in a cookie.

Was this text generated by an LLM? This doesn’t make sense.

The DECT limitation is not true. I have it paired with a Gigaset.

The AfD literally has meetings about mass deportations and many members at the top are literally neo-nazis. One member of parliament was even involved in a group that was planning a coup. When they started defending the Waffen-SS instead of discussing real problems it was even too much for Rassemblement National. You talking points about fake news are following the party line to denounce existing institutions and to appeal to conservatives.

Yes. You need to be very technical. E.g. there is a keyboard selection thing with multiple ambiguous options while on Mac you have to press like one key to identify it. Even windows somehow works without requiring a PhD in keyboard layouts.

Yeah, when parking is not allowed somewhere it is always for a reason. As a European I am using my bicycle to move around the city and the amount of times I got into dangerous situations because people park wherever they like was too high. I started reporting the violations to the police because I am sick of this antisocial behaviour.

Putin is actively trying to destroy Europe by multiple channels. Russian web brigades, support of far right parties, destabilizing African countries to increase migration (eg. preventing wheat export from Ukraine), transporting migrants as a weapon to Europe, starting a war in Ukraine etc.

And Elon is frequently shows support for Putin's side. His tweet is giving support to an extremist party that is pro-Putin. And in just one weeks there are elections in Bavaria.

The distinction of 1. and 3. world countries is outdated as this indicates that there is a dichotomy between rich and poor countries but there is not. Assumming "1st world country" means US, Canada and most of Europe, Elon Musk is an immigrant from a third world country.

Yes. The original German text can be found here: https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/stgb/__130.html

The current warm period is happening across the world for the first time. The rate of change is unprecedented and it happens globally. No, heating if a planet is not good, when this also comes with stronger weather extremes, areas where it is impossible to survive and ecological stress that evolution can not deal with.

I can get really tiring in explaining the basics in one of humanities biggest problem over and over again.

The article says it lacks a tongue. I guess it will be one of the products that sound good in theory but turn out to be just a joke.

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

You assume that the function is concave. What is the reason for that? I could imagine that the real function is monotonic but non-strict, hence non-concave.

It comes from grins translating to “grinning”. My generation grew up with ICQ which had smileys. This thing with writing g was more common in online communities like online games and chatrooms and was more an internet subculture thing than mainstream knowledge along my peers.

Paper bags in bakeries sometimes also use coated bags.

I think your employment issue is somewhere else. It is not true that all python development switched domains. E.g. you cannot replace your web back-end with AI. And there are many companies which use python for other domains. It is one of the most popular programming languages.

There is no such thing as "excess energy".

You cannot simply do that. This was planned for years and there is no training for staff, contracts like insurance, a location to put the additional waste etc. to prolong the usage of nuclear power plants.

We still have not found a place to store the waste. No one wants to live near a reactor so there are not really any place to build them (NIMBY). It also turns out that it is quite expensive when considering all costs like dismantling and insurance. Germany also does not mine uranium any more since 2021, so needs to buy them from other countries so you will have again dependencies on other countries. And then there is the historical experience of Chernobyl.

As someone donating every month to foster R&D in this area this is very disappointing to read.
