I hope the EU will follow soon. Or at least my home country. Since the EU already has different time zones, the stalling because "all should have the same time" doesn't make sense.

The generated satellite tiles are interesting. The sea is very dry. And some mountains are looking very strange. At least for some places (e.g. Mount Doom) the AI should have been able to generate more "realistic" images.

Interesting project. I might "steal" that for teaching purposes.

I do have an ancient Dr. Stika cutter plotter which works on an old WinXP with parallel port. I did try a few times to get it to work in a VM with an USB-Parallel adapter but haven't been successful so far.

"Fixed" it by replacing it with a new CriCut. But unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any open driver or software for CriCut - so I'm afraid I'll run into the same problem in a few years again :-/

What do you mean? It's exactly that in almost any programming language.

What is it you don't understand: "method" (a representation) or "decimal" (a number that consists of a whole and a fractional part)?

And American prices are already insanely low. If I want to buy a RAM in Austria for $30k I get a used car with 150.000km. If I want a new one it's (much) over $100k.

I do have set up different workspaces for different development tasks where only the necessary plugins are activated. If I do embedded development I open my platformio.workspace, if I'm doing Java I have a workspace and if I'm doing JS/Frontend stuff I have a workspace as well as for LaTeX. It really works well and isn't really difficult (although I'm not really sure that workspaces should be used for this)

Depends on the content. For some: yes, for sure.

For some others I should get money back because I couldn't find what was advertised before (for example recipe sites that contain mostly Blabla with interspersed ads and only a rudimentary recipe that isn't reproducible).

Why not ban ALL ads?!?

Nobody ever said the vaccination will stop transmission. It reduces the symptoms and hospitalisation rate (successfully).

How long ago was the second shot? There's a reason why Europe accelerated the start of the Booster vaccinations (third shots). Unfortunately there's still a lot of people that didn't receive their first shot willingly although it's freely available.

Looks great, just tried it.

One feature that is missing: "reload map" or something. It's only showing things near my "real location"; but I'd also like to explore different locations (e.g. a city I'd like to visit next weekend).

For example "Komoot" is doing that really nice for hiking routes and similar activites: explore at my location, explore near a given location, use the map, ...

I'm still using my 12 (!) year old 17" MacBook Pro as daily work machine. Yes, it's not the fastest computer but for my usage it works. Granted, starting IntelliJ needs some time, but coding still works well (and compiling big codebases isn't done locally).

The one thing that really isn't usable anymore is Aperture/Lightroom. And missing docker because my CPU is too old (but docker it still works in VMs ...) is a pain.

Why not wireless charging?

I don't mind the connector (lightning works well), better would be mandatory quality of the cables (the iPhone cables are regularly breaking).

I'm still using my 2009 MBP (updated HDD and replaced battery once) without problems. Unfortunately it seem's that I will have to update some time in the future because of missing software support :(

I tried opera because I couldn't find firefox in the store. Opera worked about a month longer than the default browser, but doesn't work anymore.

My dad is using an old Android Tablet to surf the web. Unfortunately there hasn't been an update available for some years.

This year it stopped displaying some websites because of a newer HTTPS algorithm which isn't supported anymore by the tablet. And that for watching the weather forecast and similar things that really don't need to be forced to HTTPS.

That's an excellent idea. You could also add a cinema to an airport; quite often you have transfer times longer than a movie ...

That's a really great post!

Good problem description, good introduction, explained code, meaningful and explained graphs, full source code available, conclusion and even possible further exercises. I wish (all) scientific papers were that well written.

That's a great set of features! I'll try it on my next prototype.

Especially the OpenAPI export is great; I had always problems with automatically generating it (in go/node.js/.net core).

Haven't used it till now (except maybe via nft?).

What I'm not sure is: who is preventing BPF to be used as rootkits? Since they are run inside the kernel and cannot be inspected (?) can they be used to hide malicious activity?

> I like to call this Jobs’s Law, though it could just as easily be called the Ive Doctrine: Always strive for the next version of your product to be thinner and lighter than the current one.

Then hopefully somebody will start making "reasonable-sized" phones again. Something like iPhone4/5 size with full-size displays.

Since I'm teaching Kubernetes I'll definitely take a deeper look into it. Recently I tried RedHat Labs, but unfortunately these resources were not lasting (only available for 2 months, which is not good if your students start the lab over the course of 6 months...)

Sounds quite interesting. What's the best way to roll it out on bare metal? Is it possible to install/boot over PXE?

Hm, I don't want to know how much time I spent with 2048. Definitely fun for much more than a few minutes ...

Isn't that what they are saying about the 737 max?

Didn't know bubblin.io before, that's a really great site! Thanks for building & sharing!

A lot of the (free) books seem to be old enough to be freely available; how did you manage to make others freely available (for example the books from Michael J. Sullivan)?

I haven't seen any non-free books yet? How do you keep the service available?

Same here, upgraded RAM and inserted an Hybrid Disk. It currently runs High Sierra (with the dosdude1 patcher, haven't been able to install Mojave). I don't understand why it isn't officially supported anymore, it still works flawlessly.

My 10 year old MBP17 still works, but it's good that finally there will be a replacement option available. Hopefully it will have upgradeable parts again (at least RAM and disk).

So please start making bigger MBPs and smaller iPhones!

The link to the "Docker image for WordPress" in the first line returns a 404 :-/

However if you're getting used to the subway system running every 3-5 minutes you get agitated if you have to wait 15 minutes (or even need to plan when to arrive at the station)
