It's less than 50kwh a day, high but seems reasonable with 2 electric cars.

Did the same, got a solar installer to fit panels on garage and a solis hybrid inverter. They fitted a CT clamp on my meter and a lora device on both sides for it to communicate with the inverter.
Then bought a 16kwh battery for ~£1500, installation was plugging in a positive, negative and ethernet cable and configuring the inverter to use the battery. (if my home insnurer is reading this, I had an electrician friend double check while helping with some other work)
Definitely recommended for anyone who likes tinkering, thousands cheaper than installer pricing.

Freedom, except from narcissistic conspiracy theorists spreading misinformation about serious illnesses (and their strange obsession with horse wormers) that results in your grandparents dying.

Hospice UK, a sector-support body, is publicly neutral. (which aligns with most hospices i can find public statements from)

Can you cite your sources?
https://jme.bmj.com/content/47/12/e64
This paper suggests the vast majority of disability rights organisations in great britain are not publicly opposed to assisted dying.

This survey of doctors presents data that does not correspond with your claim that most doctors oppose assisted dying.

Important context here is that many of these are in areas where businesses are still paying protection money to the paramilitary organisiations organising the bonfire.

For anyone interested in learning more, VICE did a decent documentary back in 2012 where they visit Belfast and speak to some of the people involved at a different bonfire site.
Re:Kafka vs. Redpanda Performance – Do the claims add up?
on Monday May 15, 2023 @04:52PM (#35954324)
The biggest point of contention here seems to be over whether kafka can still be considered durable/safe when fsync is disabled.
Seems like it'd be valuable to have a trusted third party like https://jepsen.io/ test it out! (not related, just a fan of their work)

Re:Quickly checking that a string belongs to a small set

Bloom filters are a fantastic datastructure but more applicable when the search set is large (usually greater than can fit in-memory).
If using a bloom filter with a small set, it's possible to obtain a low probability of false positives by using just one hash function and a small number of buckets. At that point you've effectively got a hashset like one of the solutions described in the blog post.

This comment reads like something out of an Orwell book.
How accurate do you think it is to reduce human virtues, considerations etc to a model which simpliy splits the populations in two? Stop perpetuating football-team politics.
Also, the twitter account is still banned.

The headline of this site says "civil discussion" yet the current top post is a meme which describes a US politician with a slur.
