It's not really a free market when one country is heavily subsidizing it's industries

"dunno" is just a really unsatisfying answer to anything

Currently we don't know a lot of things - but without trying out new ideas how are you ever going to know?

Fireplace is extremely inefficient, and really bad for both your (exhaust fumes get into the room anyway), and your neighbors (the smoke doesn't just dissappear) health, though.

I love the heat and smell of a good fire as much as the next guy, I'm just not sure it's worth the risk of cancer and respiratory diseases.

Wait, does this actually work?

Yes, electric cars are better for the environment over their entire lifespan. And yes clean energy will be needed to power them.

ICE's are actually shockingly bad at efficiently converting fossil fuel into movement. They mostly produce waste heat and exhaust gasses.

You think people are better at estimating what 3300 bags of sugar look like - as opposed to estimating the size of a car?

How often has anyone ever seen 3300 bags of sugar together in their lives, do you think?

Interesting. But the list of apps on there is huge! Is it really still a dumbphone? Tha just looks like the apps I already have on my phone, and I still feel like I use my phone too much. What other apps do people have that are so addictive? Games, socials?

This just makes no sense whatsoever. You can just step over dropped curbs like you can step over normal curbs?

Even if this is not the case for some weird reason - don't you agree that making the world a little bit more accessible for people who have a really hard time getting around is worth making the world just a tiny little bit less accessible for you - the person who can litterally run around?

If you have a considerable problem with tripping often though, maybe look at how you do running.

It forced the 3rd party package eco system to innovate and create things rather than just wrap existing Javscript libraries.

Writing everything yourself is not innovation. It's busy work.

Sure it's a good way to learn a language, but when you just want to build an app why would you build yet another searchable select when there are more than enough JS options already available....

Have we seen this with CPU's being throttled only to have to pay a subscription for more performance? Or GPU's? Or memory? Or storage?

The comment was about the accuracy of the sensor, not about raising CO2 levels across the globe.

It's fine, don't worry about it. It's hard for me to read long form on a computer and I read your entire story.

You can't please everyone

I am unreasonably irritated by their use of kw instead of kW

The damage is done. You cannot build a business critical function on top of American SOTA frontier model. Especially not with the current crew in charge.

I mean, this was already pretty clear before. But it surely didn't help!

I have an ipad that I mainly use to open YouTube... If I had q nickel for every time some random gesture accidentally triggered some weird feature, I'd certainly have a few nickels.

It was already released. US government is the only reason it's not available to us mere mortals anymore

This is the longest "you write like shit" I've ever read, congratulations

And 4.8 on xhigh was/is already pretty impressive

This is how tools like claude code and chat prompts output their tokens, so I'd say it's actually a pretty good visualisation.

Anyone here using QuestDB in production? What is your use case? What is your experience?

We want to migrate away from InfluxDB eventually (because of their 180 on OSS, and their tendency to reinvent the product every major release), and QuestDB seems like an interesting option.

I've also had computers with nvidia, amd (even back when it was still ATI) and intel gpu's, at least since 2006, and can't remember ever having an issue like this.

Not saying it's not an issue, but there is such an incredible amount of hardware configurations that linux supports, so it's a bit weird to say that "linux" in general has suffered a bug like this.

When the model produces reasonable results from one prompt, you could assume that it will also return reasonable results through the follow up prompts.

Installing anything from the AUR, it has always been the user's responsibility to check whatever they are installing. Has always been this way, and they have always been abundantly clear about this. It is also the reason why archlinux does not provide an official installer like yaourt or yay, they could've even built support for the AUR into pacman.

The AUR is just as safe as installing through a random shell script from github - that is to say: not safe at all.

Wow wait, I basically live in bicycle land (the netherlands), but I've never heard of fluid breaks for bicycles. All I've ever seen are cable breaks. Fluid breaks on motorcycles, sure, but I'm pretty surprised they are used on regular cycles as well!

Have you sat on a mktorcycle? The motor and air noise drowns out pretty much everything else anyway - I ride with good earplugs because I don't want to become (more) deaf.

When you learn to ride a motorcycle you learn to look - look behind you when changing lanes, look in your mirrors, basically stay aware of whatever is happening at all times by looking. Because you're sure as hell not hearing a lot.

What is Varnish Cache?

Varnish Cache is a distribution of the open-source Vinyl Cache project, made for the modern cloud: ready for Kubernetes, with built-in TLS support, and a long-term-support release cadence with extra modules and tooling layered on top.

turns out version control is hard

I am quite interested to hear how you would pronounce your name, dike-ster-house (assuming you live in the US)?
