Contrary to that, I used Jetbrains IDEs for a decade, or even longer, and recently I have switched to VS Code for my Go and TypeScript work. Sometimes less is more.
Code style and code formatting introduce so much friction in modern .NET and Java development teams, that despite any advantage these might have due to their ecosystem maturing, it's more efficient and sane to avoid these languages altogether.
Can't say about pg, but I left Twitter (I'm a regular, non-blue user) because the ads lately got out of control. Every other post is a promoted ad from a totally unrelated category, which I can't relate to. Ads targeting either stopped working, or Twitter allowed large numbers of low quality advertisers to push their ads.
Definitely one of the best World Cup finals ever. Even 1/2 finals were too good. Argentina deserved their win, I missed di Maria when they replaced him, and when it was 2:2, he couldn't be there when he was needed the most. The Polish referee did amazing job as well, one must say.
Adventure motorcycle riders have been adding auxiliary lightning kits for a long time, for example, this BMW R1250: https://imgur.com/a/H0nYGIx.
The point being, according to studies, is that drivers gave auxiliary lighting equipped motorcycles a greater margin before pulling out on them. There are other studies which indicate that cars pull out on bikes as the driver perceives the motorcycle as a small thing, ergo it is far away and also less of a threat. A big triangle of three lights is much more dominant, it features in the view of the driver and is less likely to be ignored in a "micro glance".
Nowadays you can buy a great bike for $1000 and be totally satisfied with it, ride it for years, or you can shell out $15000 for the top of the line model. And I'm talking about regular bikes, not e-bikes.
Oh, I didn't know that. Tnx! For me, it meant the end of the game and it would require restarting the game. Next time I catch it, I'll see what it actually does.
I remember catching the Corpus disease and then trying to cure it with the utmost urgency, as if I'm really being sick. While searching for the cure, I got that shocking message "Your case of Corprus has worsened.". I went searching on the Internet for cure and once I had the potion, I was so relieved.
Definitely a great initiative. I was made aware what irreversible damage so called small hydro plants are doing to these creeks and rivers. Pretty much all they do is to generate additional revenue to local tycoons, while producing insignificant amounts of energy.
The most important thing in the metaverse will be figuring out ways to make payment methods readily available.
An army of analysts is working on this problem right now. Things that are expected to be fun or novel in the metaverse are just proxies to payment methods. Facebook is building a 3D version of Amazon.
It's 2021 and .NET developers still argue which coding style they should adopt and how they should enforce it. It's totally mind numbing that team members are split between implicit and explicit variable naming. Contrary, in Go you just write code because those nuances should not matter.
People/companies who invested significantly in BTC will go to extreme measures to defend their investments. Anything negative said about BTC will be faced with various whataboutisms, how it uses renewables, it's a value store and other marketing talk. It's also pathetic that Tesla and Musk are pledging $100M for a CO2 capture solution, whereas in reality Bitcoin is adding 35MT (mega tons) of CO2 per year.
WSL2 works until you need it really, and then it starts giving you problems. The networking problems are the worst. Installed a Linux VM under VMWare and called it a day.
The worst outage I've ever seen with Gmail. I can't log in, getting "Couldn't find your Google account" message. Also, with the already logged in account, I can't browse anything but whatever is in cache.
I'm definitely worried.
I figured out the best way to deal with WiFi and sound issues in Linux is to run it as a VM guest. With plenty RAM and fast SSDs it runs more than acceptably well.
More than awesome performance. Unfortunately, I'm quite reluctant to upgrading, I'll pass a generation or two. I don't want to spend time baffling around software issues.
The EU is like Netflix but for energy projects. They always have allocate massive budget portions for such projects, especially for renewable ones.
- Wind power - more wind turbines will be shut down than new built in Germany in 2021. They don't store energy, people living near wind parks hate them, and the government need to buy up power from the wind energy companies.
- Biodiesel/ethanol fuel production - can't be made profitable without heavy state subventions, takes land that's used for food agriculture, in tropical states responsible for biohabitat loss.
- Small hydro projects - probably one of the worst green energy initiatives, they destroy often all life in small rivers and creeks.
- Solar energy - low efficiency, takes up land for farming, recycling issues.
- Hydrogen power - we'll probably see excess wind power being used for hydrogen production, but still not really a viable alternative compared to lithium batteries. The EU can't make it cheaply, they're kind of relying on gigantic solar farms in Africa to make it in large quantities.
Good thing they're keeping on shutting down of coal power plants.
