Tbh I was worried when I saw this title but its not bad

Do the same bikes magically not fail and have cheaper replacement motors in the fabled Dutch paradise?

£700 for a replacement motor? Bloody hell

It's often called Basket to navigate this

True - and fair point on the UK comparisons.

Though of course, sometimes there are easy options that the UK missed out on because they are inept and apathetic, which would vindicate some of those comparisons to some extent.

Yeah, had to get clued up on this for new house in London. A few points:

1. It is unlikely that hydrogen will be pushed heavily by the UK gov because of the expensive pipe rework. The reason they're pushing hard for heat pumps is because of the Glasgow Climate Pact; they're on the hook to reduce carbon emissions or pay heavy fines. To that extent, subsidising heat pumps becomes financially less unviable for them than doing nothing.

2. Regarding the heat in summer; the houses insulate well but don't do much to prevent heat coming in from the windows during summer. There are some pretty useful half-fixes; mvhrs+insulation, or recessed windows/overhangs/sunshades massively aid this. For those who rent that's not much help though :(

I know why it's fast (it doesn't do anything it doesn't need to), but not exactly sure why it's faster than esbuild-runner; presumably it had a higher latency when tested.

(and downsides not really, beyond it's pretty fresh so bug reports welcome)

ty, updated

For anyone who is still confused - they're still gonna be using TypeScript in that they will have a tsconfig.json, `allowJS: true, checkJS: true` but they are just writing the files in JS with JSDoc type annotations, they'll still have `.d.ts` files to allow TS developers to use it without issues.

Is it contrarian - yes - is it insane - no, not really.

Edit: the motivation seems to be to simplify processes - running TS files can be awkward, and cross importing is awkward. fwiw created my own tool for this ([url-redacted])

Worth pointing out that Astro is already a good solution for this problem; can use it without touching client side libs

Would encourage DuckDuckGo people who are looking for a new option to consider Ecosia - it also uses the Bing API so it has good indexing coverage - but does a much better job of postprocessing the results.

"Don’t settle for dead-weight." - amazing

Yeah I think you might be missing the point - the aim with these protests is to toe the line between getting news attention without getting it for the wrong reasons. The actual protest and the cause do not have to be perfectly matched

Would probably err on the side of going for an old Pixel or OnePlus instead and flashing this on it instead; would be a faster device for less money and the same result

Had the same issue recently, with the caveat that I grew up in the UK, then moved to US and back.

I prefer the concept of international standardisation to an American layout in pretty much all areas, with the exception of the keyboard layout; ANSI layouts are far more friendly - for programming, at least. Not just the enter key but the left shift too.

Same - lived in SF for 3 years and while the tech side is cool, but in SF everyone's either homeless or soulless it seems

Let's hope they don't take the incoming Apple bribes for a new office in Amsterdam or something
