As a user of many Apple Silicon generations in different / mostly top configurations by now I’m obviously a big fan. One thing that I have “observed” though (with no data to back it up): it seems…

Zero-rating = skewing whole internet playing field, not just stifling small creators; subtly - or not so subtly - influences user behaviour, leading to a constrained experience. Users might feel finan…

The metered pricing model doesn’t align with reality of data costs for ISPs which are often negligible (thanks to technological advances and peering agreements especially). This makes the metered mode…

It’s true that smaller ISPs have their challenges, but the cost for both interplant and extraplant connections has been generally decreasing. Economies of scale and peering agreements can mitigate man…

ISPs face costs for peak usage / level of “playing with the numbers” yes, but economies of scale and exchange agreements reduce these costs significantly. Bandwidth caps not only have a weak fina…

Peering agreements at internet exchanges make additional bandwidth very cheap to provide and infra costs are spread over years and many users, further reducing ongoing costs.. Bandwidth caps not only …

The book insulation tip is great and could be a good segue into replacing reading habits for actual books vs e-reader / other displays. Even with "nightshift red colours" I could stay u…

Could you elaborate? Are you talking about this? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_positive_airway_pre... …

AFAIR was only the case if nap was longer than ~20 min? I don't remember if this was a consistent thing, I doubt it though as this stuff is inherently individual. Experimentation is the only way …

It's not necessarily 0 or 1 is it? E.g. a "short espresso" in the early morning hours at least from my sleep tracking / particular (heavy) physiology doesn't make a difference…

I agree, it's hard but worth it. I have the data to back it up through sleep tracking. I've always felt somewhat unfazed by coffee, yet caffeine flashbacks can be very subtle and do seem to …

Paywalled article but I'm wondering if the stat for Canada's "Doctors per 1000 people" is actually lower due to emigration?

> According to NASA Planetary Science Division director Jim Green, a powerful magnetic dipole positioned at the Mars L1 Lagrange Point could potentially deflect the solar wind like a natural magnet…

> Picasso, Jeff Bezos, Mozart, Steve Jobs, Nikola Tesla, Elon Musk, Robert Oppenheimer, Peter Thiel, Leonardo, and others are worshipped by the masses. I hesitantly have to give Elon Musk credit fo…

I see it the same way. In the long run imo only two options: a) finally figure out licensing and platforming ambitions to unify so that the onus is not on customers b) upgrade your democracies; become…

Aren’t UK officials uniquely notorious at this?

Shining beacon of hope.

Yes, perfect training grounds for your future “solo-pilot coding agent”. Let’s not kid ourselves, by now we know that data is gold and we hand it to these corporations without ever getting paid for it…

I recently learned that Kubernetes is running on a lot of free labour. The main draw and ever increasing underpinning for lots of services provided by the behemoth infrastructure entities… GOOG, AMZ…

What about power / TDP though? I personally lean heavily towards ARM/MIPS and hopefully soon RISC-V for that above all? Depends on the use case of course…

Can anyone recommend a forward looking “JBOD case” holding the rpi5 that maybe has room for ample cooling for 24/7 usage? Basically for something like a “DIY Asustor” ++ build? Any 2c much apprec…

We had a good run on the back of these cloud providers. It’s about time to take some of the learnings and prepare to slowly move away from them again.

It has always been that way to me. Also over-run with recruiters.

Are there any investigations into what changed? I remember DB had always been looked up to by Austrians but now OEBB seems to run a better service?

I want to believe this / hate on Apple as another iPhone X user with very slow web performance. I would wager it’s not Safari mobile though just your standard website got way more resource hungry…

Thanks for sharing your paternal wisdom with us again.
