Really? It seems to me that wherever I go they use the same plug*, and I can charge with my debit card. (Except one place in Germany, but I think it was an error in the payment system.)
Yes, there’s technically two different plugs, but they go in the same socket in my car. It just that the fast ones have a larger plug.
The problem is that some of them are much cheaper if you have the right card, but I believe the most expensive ones are still cheaper than fueling an ICE car.
Yeah, that seems like a much bigger problem.
I haven’t read it, but it could be to demonstrate how easy it was to identify it as a fake, without the ressources of BBC.
Yes, there it obviously means “no parking”. You were complaing about the little bits between the parking spots. Right?
I don’t see the problem. Don’t park outside the marked area. Red line is reminding you, because lots of people think the marked rectangle is a suggestion.
Doesn’t that just mean “stay within the lines”? Which you probably must do anyway, so it’s just a reminder?
You still can’t blame the word.
You lost me at “bailiff”. You are overthinking the analogy.
I see why you want to avoid the word at YOUR workplace. But the problem is your workplace, not the word.
I like to call it “debt”, because it’s a problem that grows while you ignore it. Worst case, it becomes easier to start over than fixing it. But getting 100% rid of it isn’t good business either.
Like all other analogies, don’t overthink it. I don’t now what “involuntary liquidation” would mean for tech debt. Unless you mean the product won’t run for a significant amount of time due to overwhelming tech debt, which can absolutely happen.
True, I didn’t think that far back.
Who does? What kind of objects?
“Share economy” seems bigger than ever to me. Just a few years ago it wasn’t even a thing.
This is such an odd post. So many details that are highly debatable, not many important details.
For example, is the egg refrigerated or room temperature? That changes the timing a lot. Talking about accurate timing is pointless without at least some idea of the initial temperature.
I don’t use a ice bath, or any kind of cooling down for hardboiled eggs. I don’t really have a problem peeling them, unless they are very fresh.
I own my data. I own my installation. That’s what I care about.
Why would I want to own the hardware, when it’s in an inaccessible building far away.
Lithium-* batteries don’t actually have any specific useful numbers. It’s something like this (the actual numbers are pulled out of my ass and depends on battery time and test parameters and even then I’m simplifying):
At 0 volts, the battery is dead.
At 1 volts, the battery is practically dead.
Discharging to 2 volts kills it after around 100 times.
Discharging to 3 volts kills it after around 10 000 times
Discharging to 3.5 volts kills it after 100 000 times
Charging to 4 volts kills it after 100 000 times
Charging to 4.2 volts kills it after 10 000 times
Charging to 4.3 volt kills it after 1000 times
Charging to 4.4 volts kills it after 100 times
Charging to 4.5 has s significant chance of it catching fire
Now choose how many charge cycles you want it to survive, and you know which voltage to consider 0% and which to consider 100%. The bigger difference, the bigger capacity with the same battery.
This is why a phone with 0% battery can tell you that it’s out of battery.
You can also adjust what “killed” means. Is it when battery capacity is reduced to 80%? 50%?
I have to repeat - the numbers are not accurate, and this is strongly simplified.
It’s just an illustration of what 0% and 100% means it’s just where you are on the useful range, according to the manufacturers definition of useful.
Just to be clear: Do you want a way to save anything interesting that might happen, or do you want to save everything as automatically as possible?
Not all foreigners are criminals. But all members of a gang are gang members.
Isn’t it illegal in US, to be a member of an organization that has an obviously criminal purpose and/or obviously criminal methods?
What is the odds that court is where you go?
There’s so many other outcomes I keep hearing about in your news, but I don’t know the odds.
Yes, except tinfoil is also bad for the environment, it’s just that plastic is what’s getting attention these days.
Once upon a time it was like that. I don’t remember which decade I saw that last.
I remember this. From the 90’s.
Autosave has existed AND been the default so long that taking it for granted is now actually okay.
This is not related cloud storage or corporates spying on users. It’s just autosave. That’s all it takes.
I’m from Denmark. Most people here are middle class.
It is common to own a vacation house here, if that is your interest.
Owning a business is also very common here, you gotta make a living somehow. And sure, if you manufacture something, why not export.
I don’t know how common it is to go on 5 star hotels here. I don’t really look at the stars. But if the cheapest available hotel that fit my needs happens to be 5 star, then that’s where I go.
I’m definitely not rich here.
