aaxa··on CERN gears up to ship antimatter across Europe
I worked at CERN a few years ago, so assuming they haven't build any new amazing facilities, these would be my top picks:

- Any of the experiments really, but especially ATLAS is impressive.

- The antimatter factory. I found that the guides there are usually very passionate.

- The control centre if you can get a tour (this is the facility I delivered software to).

You could say the same with Just-Eat. In Denmark, I know they have a markup up to 15%, even though they have a lot of competition. So honestly, I am a bit sceptical if we will see a much lower markup. One might hope though.

How is VSCode anything similar to IntelliJ other than they both can edit text and has plugins?
aaxa··on In mobile, 62.7% of computation energy cost is spent on data movement [pdf]
I think this headline is very misleading. This is about computational energy cost and does not represent what the headline implies (that it's 62.7% of total energy consumption)
aaxa··on Update on free software and telemetry
And I guess you will make it opt-in instead of opt-out for the self-hosted Enterprise Edition, right?

Edit: also, the email you sent out to your users is very different from your blog post. In the blog post you ask for feedback from your users, which is not the case in the email, which is written as an actual announcement that this is going to happen.

aaxa··on Enable Pages access control
Actually, it doesn't even have to be microservices. At my current workplace we have over 1000 projects in our Gitlab. And many of those projects are a collection of up to 20 libraries.

It's not. A lot of sugar comes from sugar beets
aaxa··on Enabling the F4 key in macOS
I prefer Hammerspoon to be honest. It's free, open source and you can modify pretty much everything on your Mac. Be it key bindings, hotkey sequences or automation of other software's behaviour and so on.
aaxa··on Denmark's education minister will let high schools check students computers
This is a proposal that hopefully won't make it through. This is so over the line in terms of privacy. I really hope that the rest of the politicians can understand how this is a major issue. No teacher or anyone else for that matter, should get access to students private files and social media accounts.
