I start writing the implementation and get the “variable not defined” error and then let the ide add the declaration. It’s less keys to press and misspell.

Maybe waiting for the pane to go down while it’s out of range of any possible radar? It seems to be in the middle of the ocean and maybe that was where he planned to more or less run out of fuel 🤷‍♂️

Maybe it could also have been the first officer if he prepared really well? There seems to be a lot of evidence confirming a well planned route with all communication disabled.

Anyway, it clearly looks like it is a suicide that he tried to mask as an accident. It’s the worst way to go, taking all these casualties. It wouldn’t be the first one, but definitely the best covered up so far.

About D, you could also be programming robots, PLC’s or thermostats 🤷‍♂️

IMO they should just remove the equality operator on floats.

They also couldn’t call it “.Net Core 4” so they called it “.Net 5”

Will they keep skipping numbers or start thinking about not naming everything the same.

Especially when you start typing something and it already started searching with your partial input and you your further and notice the thing your search for is first so you press enter, for it to now place another thing first with the extra input 😡

How can “displ” open display settings, but “display” opens a help page in Edge

That is true. I do think we should retire pure ICE cars as soon as possible. If you need to do long distances, a hybrid that could be converted might be a good intermediate solution. If you only need a car sporadically, a car sharing platform with electric cars is a good solution. These already exist in big eu cities. Ofc good and adorable public transport is nr 1.

Decreasing the amount of cars would decrease emissions short and long term more than the current shift to EV and would make shifting easier as there are just fewer to replace.

I put very minimal calculation which at least puts it around the same order and linked a report by Volvo where they try to count the whole cycle of a car with the emissions of the production and transport of used parts and fuels.

On current electricity mix, an electric car is only slightly better on a CO2 emissions. With only renewables, it can be 2x better.

But the statement that in China it’s at least better than a Prius is just wrong. Until renewables take a serious share of the grid, a smaller well engineered hybrid is not worse.

A Prius will definitely pollute less than the typical SUV electric cars on a coal grid.

Cause:

• Efficiency of coal power plant and all losses are as bad as ICE cars. The EVs do thermal->mechanical->electrical->grid->battery->wheels and if you count them all up, is not better than an EV

• Prius is designed for low drag unlike an SUV

• Prius had regenerative braking like an EV

But just the numbers:

• Prius is rated at 94g/kg

• Coal 950g/kwh

• Volvo c40 0.2kwh/km or 190g/km even without losses

I took Volvo cause they published a report with a good compare ev and ICE https://www.volvocars.com/images/v/-/media/market-assets/intl/applications/dotcom/pdf/c40/volvo-c40-recharge-lca-report.pdf

Even with the current EU energy mix, it takes 77’000 km to be better than ICE, so arguably better. On coal electricity, they are worse. And this is comparing equally sized cars, a Prius will do better.

Coal power plant efficiency is less than 40%. You’d also not get 90% of the outlet on the wheels. There is also a lot of loss on the grid, but there is also on the production of fuel. The two pollute almost the same.

Burning coal however is a lot worse for the air quality.

There is also something like this:

It does make a mess but my cat used to like these so I bought a new one every few months.

Yes, if the speed you go in wouldn’t the speed you go out, you’d be ripped apart.

In portal (the whole point of this joke), it happens instantly an works like walking through a door. If your hand is through, it’s at the other side and the rest of your body isn’t.

If you would travel at the same direction and speed of the train, you could step through and be stationary at the other side. If you stand still and the train travels to you, the only “logical” answer is that you fly out the other side or be ripped apart.

If the train drives slow enough that is takes 3s between when your head gets through and your feed are trough, it also needs to take 3s on the other side or you are ripped to pieces or squashed.

Now if it takes 0.1s, you also have to come out in this time and will have a velocity, the same as the train.

I dislike a lot of the shock advertising they do, but most of what you point out is anecdotal and mostly spread as a laster campaign, because they actually do have an impact on animal welfare and that’s not in the best interest of the ppl behind these laster campaigns.

About the shelters, what should happen with all the excess pets that are bought and then dumped? At least peta tries to take down bad kennels and does something about the stray population. It’s all nice having a no-kill shelter, but these either don’t take all pets or get to big that it’s just unhygienic and sad. If the shelter refuse any ill or old pet they can’t place, these pets either end up on the street or in a shelter that takes any pet and does euthanize.

Peta also gets called for stray pets in terrible condition or that are aggressive that probably always have to be put down.

Their kill rate will probably be quite high, but I have no idea who made up the 80% and what would be included in that number.

Newer linux games on steam are compiled to run in containers in the same way as a flatpak. They could break it a security patch would break some vague hack in de game, but these should be minimal. These containers are only released ever other year and keep being supported so there isn’t really any serious compatible problem there. The first Linux games on steam like team fortress 2 ran partially on the system libraries and that caused lots of problems, especially when these get older.

With the snipperred Linux desktop, containers are the only viable solution.

I like the pattern a lot more. It makes you just initialize the value and only keep it ‘nullable’ for where it’s needed and then you need to check. Even .net implemented it (but a bit more awkward)

It has std:option

So every object that can be None or Some, needs to be checked when used. And only options can be set to None
