How is the new datacenter powered again? Clean energy or gas turbines?

Just enable reader view in Firefox. Makes reading half of peoples personal blog post viable, since often they have weird font size choices etc.

There are many things that my brain just can't handle, the size of the universe, more than 3 dimensions and this fact especially.

No thank you, we will happily continue with our investment in wind, solar and battery storage.

In Germany we have had a great influx of electric trucks in the last year

Funny that the video in the blog post still needs X. I will see myself out....
What's up with the upvote/comments ratio 8 to 337 on this post? Are the comments already also ai advanced? (/s?)
It is the same when you plug in a Logitech mouse nowadays, no? At least they don't install McAfee
Can confirm. This happened to me yesterday on my Windows 11 machine. Uninstallation was only listed in the Microsoft Store -> Library.

by claude code. So this was only possible since no human had to bear looking at X original source code.

We had zero in the last 7 years. But we are only a small team of 8.
Thanks, Firefox and uBlock does not let me watch any X content (I guess this is a good thing)

Let me quote Wikipedia:

> The popularity of nu metal came to a peak in 2001 with Linkin Park's diamond-selling debut album, Hybrid Theory.

Re:Anthropic is expanding to Colossus2. Will use GB200 on Thursday May 21, 2026 @03:50AM (#48219244)
So for a guy that literally has a company that produces batteries and solar panels, choose to use gas turbines. So much for saving the planet.

Nu Metal not having any Linkin Park songs is a crime.

It's the no way to op out from this that is bad.
What kind of decaf coffee do you drink? There are differences between the cheap chemical Methylene way to create decaf coffee and the expensive co2 way to get rid of the caffeine.

Come on at least write the Hackernews replies yourself.
As a cpp developer I had to chuckle there. And I thought our compile times were bad.
Not just that. As a 31 year old developer even I feel like acquiring new skills is now harder than ever. Having Claude come up with good solutions to problems feels fast, but I don't learn anything by doing so. Like it took me weeks to understand what good and what bad CMake code looks like. This made me the Cmake guy at work. The learning curve delayed the port from qmake to CMake quite a bit, but I learned a new skill.

As a user of libGodot embedded into our existing c++ tech stack, I can say we do not have this issue.

Re:It's not you; GitHub is down again on Monday February 09, 2026 @11:58AM (#46947633)
Uhm no? We have been self-hosting Gitlab for 6 years now with monthly updates and almost zero issues, just apt update && apt upgrade.

Gitlab.com. CI is super nice and easily self hostable.
Re:C++ Modules Are Here to Stay on Friday January 30, 2026 @05:22AM (#46822682)
Thanks <3 Working on this project also made me realize that cpp needs something like crates.io. We are using vcpkg as a second-best guess for cpp library usages, because it has more packages than sites like conan. Also adding support of things like import statement list, shows that there needs to be a naming convention, because now we have this wild mix:

- import boost.type_index;

- import macro-defined;

- import BS.thread_pool;
