Mobile-first is not mobile only design!

This article has completely misunderstand the term, mobile first it's the technical way of organizing the CSS to render the mobile viewport first and then the rest of the 'breakpoints'.

Mobile-first design has the advantage, over the desktop-first design, that it directly render first the mobile design and the cellphone experience is much faster and with less rearragning flickering.

Mobile-first doesn't have the corresponding disadvantages at the desktop browser since they tend to have a land line internet and much faster cpu and memory.

I have created a vuejs components library that is based on a proprietary js framework.

Its super easy to create a new component since all the JS and design is handed from the proprietary framework, and i have full control on the complete library.

The downside is that i have to create every component i want to use and i cannot share the library with anyone.

I offered a job in a company that implements NATO procedures. Its a company in Greece that implements radar software for airspace among other defensive projects.

I stayed there only for a month, i hated the objective of the job, I hated the UI custom library, I hated the way I had to test my code, I hated how much of disengagement I had to do from my morals to work on 'defense' projects.

I once learned Ada for a NATO project. I was amazed by the simplicity you could start a thread and monitor it.

Its not dead but you will never see it trending. Its just a niche language as most of the languages at the post are.

The Merge 4 years ago

You would be right if it continues to be proof of work. More miners would mine more ETH.

But this is not the case, the 'mined' ETH will come from proof of stake. Some people with more than 32 ETH and an online server will keep the engines rolling and get 5% in return for their service.

The less power is because the electricity is used for serving instead of mining.

How about commercial nas? I have a Synology and thus it gets updates, it keep working without internet for months.

Home automation with arduino and Nodered.

I have already implemented the garden lights and the heat on off. I get temp and humidity data from the garden and i want to add some security features and implement a morning routine (warmup the espresso machine, start the heat, open the curtain)

I just implemented the foundation of my home automation.

I installed NodeRED on a raspberry pi and it communicates with arduino through MQTT.

The good thing with this is that i control the hardware parts woth arduino and the automation logic with NodeRED.

NodeRED is much easier to use than HomeAssistant because of the extensibility and the use of NodeJs.

I have implemented an arduino library that makes the development on that an easy task.

I wanted to have everything on the local network and dont depend on the internet. We had some internet outage the past years and i dont want to lose the control of my house for that. Also, everything is much faster.

Every arduino can run on its own, that way even if the raspberry pi is out of order, i can open and close the lights using a button or a switch.

I want to add some panels at my home to lower the monthly power bill but as I understand I have to direct the energy to something, such as fridge or AC, and when there is not enought energy from the sun either automatically switch to grid or manually.

Where can I find such information to build a hybrid energy solution?

I am no scientist, I just used to play in playground as a kid and watched allot of figure skating.

When something is rotating as you said, their mass is away from the rotation point, you can increase the rotation speed by moving the mass closer to the rotation point.

When the skater spins with their hands open they gain rotation speed by just gather their hand around the body.

When the kids spin on the round game, they get closer to the center to gain speed and away to slow down.

Is this a thing? Does this actually translates to increased centripetal force? Why they didnt get more speed by using this method?

I was in love with Go when i was younger, i have even created an AI that played using some rules, not an algorithm.

But when i created again the same game with AlphaBeta algorithm, i just quit the game. No matter how good you are the computer can predict all the moves, and win you no matter how good you become.

Waterfox Browser 5 years ago

By reading the subtitle 'a perfect ballance between privacy and usability' i think that it wont have privacy and might be less user friendly that other browsers.

Also, the statement that you try to collect less data doesn't says anything about privacy.

I offer mail and skype support, the bad thing about skype messages and skype voice is that after the call is ended I don't have a mail with the user's requests. because of this, i have forgotten many requests and they have to call back to ask me again. On the other side when somebody sends me an email I put a task flag on it and I work through these flags during my working hours.
