Hi, I am Martin, but I go by Visgean on the internet. I am a freelance software engineer based in London. Over the last 13 years I have helped governments, large corporations, energy companies and doctors with my code.
Feel free to contact me (matrix, Discord, email) regarding job offers or just to have a chat. https://visgean.me/, email visgean@gmail.com
Yes but for that you need to focus on the quality. There are probably horrible issues on backend as well.
this gets repeated over and over again but its false:
Nuclear power plants are routinely used in load following mode on a large scale in France, although "it is generally accepted that this is not an ideal economic situation for nuclear stations".[42] Unit A at the now decommissioned German Biblis Nuclear Power Plant was designed to modulate its output 15% per minute between 40% and 100% of its nominal power.

not really. Most of the technology is not black box but something of a grey box. You usually choose to treat it as a black box because you want to focus on your problems/your customers but you can always focus on underlying technologies and improve them. Eg postgresql for me is a black box but if I really wanted or had need I could investigate how it works.
Or maybe the americans will pay for the VPN to get normal non-addictive version of tiktok.
Waypoint AI | Senior Backend, Fullstack, Frontend | Prague + REMOTE (CZ) | Full-time | Equity
We're building Chip — an AI support engineer that autonomously triages, routes, and resolves complex technical support cases. Think: a teammate that reads every Jira ticket, every Intercom thread, and every runbook, then actually acts on them.
Czech-American B2B startup, raised $3.1M. Already in production with Volvo, ClickHouse, and others.
We're a small eng team where early architectural decisions still matter. We use AI daily as a collaborator (Claude Code) — not as a gimmick, but because it genuinely makes us faster. We value craft, ownership, and shipping in small slices.
Stack: Django + Django Ninja, Postgres, Dramatiq (background jobs), React/Next.js/TypeScript/Tailwind.
Hiring for three roles:
Senior Backend Engineer (AI Systems) — Own APIs, data pipelines, and durable workflows. LLM product experience (evals, cost/latency, vector search) is a plus. https://mywaypoint.ai/open-positions/senior-backend-engineer...
Fullstack Engineer — Backend-heavy with enough frontend to be dangerous. End-to-end ownership from schema to UI. https://mywaypoint.ai/open-positions/fullstack-engineer
Frontend Developer — Build interfaces that make complex AI feel simple. React/Next.js/TS/Tailwind. Product-minded, not just pixel-pushing. https://mywaypoint.ai/open-positions/frontend-developer
Office in Prague 7 (Holešovice), remote-friendly. Competitive CZ-market comp + meaningful equity.
To apply: joinus@mywaypoint.ai — include a project you shipped end-to-end and how you use AI tooling in your workflow. Mention HN.
The email that made him angry reminds me of this youtube classic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uraG-z0grkc
I honestly don't like that this is expressed as a comment but I guess it makes the implementation easy and backwards compatible...
There is a good scifi "Jumping Off the Planet" by David gerrold about space elevators if you have not read it yet.
Those words have different meaning:
1. Libgen domains are "seized" - only the domains got seized, the website is still operational.
2. tiktok "goes dark", yes because it was an action of tiktok to go dark with the hope that they will be operational next week. Nobody banned them and even Biden said he would not enforce it so they could have simply do nothing and wait for the next week.
3. "censor" porn or news outlets, I think thats common usage.
The comment said payment, that does not neccesarily mean money. There are things that tiktok can do for him and the money is least of it.
I dont think this is e-ink and that the point of this article.
OK but if you actually read the article you will see that this is mostly about australian position, not US.
Have you considered using handles on the luggage? Seems like with some sort of hook you would have better hold on the luggage, but i guess it would be challenging to identify and approach each handle.
Some fujifilm cameras support it seedms: https://fujifilm-dsc.com/en/manual/x-h2_connection/overview_.... Overall this seems better suited for tethered shooting with direct usb-c transfer.
i tried them with fuji 50mb raw files, it was super slow compared to capture one
In edinburgh we had this: https://devpost.com/software/the-marauder-s-app which showed who was using which computer based on logins.
Lol, that depends heavily what you consider staff. E.g. look at freight, if you move cargo by trucks you need 1 staff member (sometimes called drivers) per truck. Train on the other hand needs only 2 people per hundreds of meters of train...
Even worse for individual car transport. You need one staff (driver) per vehicle...
similarly outlived their usefulness.
from the wiki article it does not sound like they have ever been useful.
But thats the point, none of these actually mean that you cant eat it after te cutoff date.
you can get Fuji GFX with detachabke eye finder.
I think the issue would be the missing datasheet. But I was thinking the same, old cameras seems to be the easiest source of a good sensor.
I think the conclusion is wrong; that sounds much more like dutch.
Well they should have given it to the guy who discovered the famous equation e=mc2 + ai..

There is some drone footage here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdPGO6sfc3c, also google maps has a good view https://maps.app.goo.gl/KwdiwCzF4sThGLVf9
I meant that light rail must be much more expensive, but now I’m not so sure. I hadn’t considered you can have more passengers per driver and if labor is dominating cost then yeah trams can be cheaper!
Well labor and gas/electricity. I think in most places in EU the electricity will win over gas easily.
often break down when there’s snow in the winter, leaves in the fall or sun-bending in the summer, which may not be noticeable on visits.
Not an issue in Prague where I have experienced them the most. You can clean the tracks in similar way that you would clean the road, so the buses would not have much of an advantage..
it feels like those networks have been kept alive for nostalgic reasons.
i have not been there, so maybe its true tho Gothenburg seems to be investing into the network and buying new trams. So are a lot of other cities.
It s a bit bizzare article but the fact we could detect similar failures is good. Not sure tho why anyone would use satelites for this. They could just use normal sensors that would give you way more precision.

I dont think starlink antena is able to communicate with their own satelites - those are much higher and you would need much more powerfull antenna.
First, you can’t go faster than cars or avoid traffic (in practice),
that is not true, in cities the car speed is usually limited to 50, a lot of trams go 70 on certain sections. Also "or avoid traffic" a lot of trams go completely separetely from the traffic.
because modern suspension beats aging fixed rail (it tends to be shaky, again unlike trains).
Depends on the city, but a lot of cities that I visited have a very modern trams that are not shaky (helsinky, zurich, bratislava, riga, edinburgh, bordeaux...). Also the technology of the rail building has changed and the new lines are meant to be quiter and more stable
Trams are electric? Given how buses are basically commodity in our oil-centric world, I can only imagine how trams look at the balance sheet in comparison
No idea what you mean by this but I would assume that the cost of running things is lower, the c02 profile is for sure https://ourworldindata.org/travel-carbon-footprint
