I can see this both ways.

For a lot of ingredients this can be false precision. That fresh thing of dried ginger is going to be 5x more flavorful than the jar that has been sitting in your cabinet for two years. Saying "1 tsp" doesn't actually produce consistent results and can actually discourage people from adding more if they need it.

I think it is good to have these precise amounts but also good to tell people which amounts are critical and which amounts can survive being doubled or halved without trouble.

If you're using a frontend framework, sure, you can use React devtools or equivalents.

I think tailwind in React does make a lot of sense, but I think there are even more simple solutions to use inside React that solve the same problems but with normal CSS and none of the extra tooling and config of Tailwind.

You can think of tailwind like a higher level language for CSS, since you are writing inline CSS again just with more concise attributes. With that being it's only real advantage in my opinion, I didn't think it was worth learning a whole new dialect just to avoid a few lines of CSS. CSS variables can be solved trivially with an imported JS object, so the config file as well adds a lot of minutiae knowledge without delivering that much more benefit.

At any rate, it is for some people and not others. I'm not going to try too hard to objectively prove why I don't like it, it just adds a lot of tooling overhead while not really solving enough problems for me.
It says send support is 'coming soon' on the website, so expectations are already set for those paying for this service.

Ohhh.... I think I get it. The root of my confusion is that BRACES ARE OPTIONAL in Rust closures.

This is apparently valid Rust:

let func = || println!("foo!");

I didn't know that, which is why I thought "|| async move ..." was some weird form of pseudo-async-closure instead of what it is: a function that returns an async function.

Most of the code I see always uses braces in closures for clarity, but I now see that a lot of async code does not.

No that's not what he is saying.

Analogy time - there's a part of your town where two roads come together. There's a gas station on that corner which makes you and everyone very happy, because it's a very convenient place for the gas station to be.

But how did that spot end up being a gas station? It's because the owner of the gas station valued that real estate more than the baker and the taxidermist. He paid more for it because he could earn more with it because that's what is most valuable for consumers there. These three things are connected.

Same reason GM will pay more for GM.com than a teenager named George Moore (or whatever) - because ultimately GM will generate more value for it's customers with that domain than George will.

I hope the analogy is helpful. That's how pricing of most things works.
It's not clear to me.

I'm not a Rust programmer, but I've written several projects where I'm pulling in a large Rust dependency, because the best available library for something is implemented in Rust, and it offers a C interface.

These libraries I've used have been very good, but also, extremely large. Like, over 100 MB .a files. They slow down compilation noticeably just by linking, and while a lot of the size is stripped out during linking, the resulting sizes tend to still be uncomfortably big.

So to me it seems Rust binaries tend to be huge both on the small end large ends of the spectrum, and they are large to the point where it becomes a real problem.

You had a work colleague who, we can assume with the same background as yours, delved into Indian cuisine through his partner and enjoyed discovering new flavors - and all you remember is how annoying he was.

I can’t fathom how a professional cook/chef would not be curious enough to try and understand his excitement. Unless you worry more about being a fac-simile of a French chef stereotype than actually care about food, it’s history and the wonderful experiences it can create.

I assume that premature infrastructure optimization (complexity, complex automation, kubernetes, etc whatever you say) is same with premature optimization, both are bad.

However same with optimization, there are some best practices that are good to follow, such as avoiding N+1 queries.

This coal spiel is getting so old. This shift to coal in the German energy mix hasn't materialized. This is counter to what many predicted (or hoped?) would happen as the nuclear share weaned.

The facts:

In the time frame 2010 to 2020, the share of nuclear energy in the German energy mix has halved, from 22% to 11%.

At the same time, the share of lignite in the energy mix has dwindled from 23% to 16%. The share of hard coal has gone from 19% to 7%.

Germany reduced its nuclear power output while at the same time reducing its coal power output by even more than its nuclear output.

Gas is up by 2 percentage points, but renewables have more than doubled their market share in 10 years time, and now make up 45% of the power mix (was 17% in 2010).

So no, Germany simply is not switching to coal (or even gas for that matter), and renewable energy production is ramping up rapidly.

This past year I’ve finally been able to hit the $200/hour rate as a k8s consultant.

I feel like I’m selling snake oil. I’m working on my 7th implementation and none of my customers need kubernetes.

Basically all of their developers and devops engineers want kubernetes on their resumes or because it is shiny and what the cool kids are using.

My largest implementation was a $3m/year, 9 year old company who could run their entire infrastructure on a couple dozen ec2 instances. However they are under the delusion of “hitting it big and needing to be able to scale 100x”.

I imagine startups don't do traditional loans because a bank will probably take one look at them and attach an sky-high interest rate due to the risk profile, if they even decide to lend at all.

Also, if said startup has other investors, I don't know if they'd approve of them using their funds to pay off debt instead of using it to grow the company.

What competition? The Belgian market is already firmly owned by France energy companies.

Belgium has 2 nuclear power plants. In 2016, these covered about 51% of domestic power consumption.

Those power plants are owned and operated by Engie-Electrabel which is a subsidiary to Engie, a french multinational providing utilities services.

Engie-Electrabel covers about 50% of the Belgian market. The second largest producer/supplier on the Belgian market is Luminus (20% market share). The main shareholder of Luminus is Electricité de France (70% stake). Fun fact, EDF Luminus has a 10% stake in Engie-Electrabel's Belgian nuclear power plants. Most of their production is gas based.

Those 2 nuclear plants are coming up on 50 years of age. Their operational lifespan was 40 years. Talks about a phase out have been going on since 1999. So, what went wrong?

Back in 2003, at the end of their legislature, the then-government passed legislation that put a stop on building new plants and asserted a phaseout between 2021-2025. Even though an energy commission back then already noted the high reliance of Belgian consumption on nuclear. It was assumed that subsequent governments would revert that decision.

That didn't happen.

Why? Because between 2003 and now, Belgium has had a string of political crises severely stifling decision making processes. The "energy transition" has been postponed over those past 20 years for political reasons.

Belgium is now at a moment in time where those plants ought to be shut down, but without any proper alternatives to curb power consumption. Meanwhile, the costs for consumers has risen sharply over the past decade: 0.35 EUR / kWh.

Those costs are expected to rise in the future. Past policies regarding subsidizing renewables such as solar panels through tax incentives turned out to negatively impact the budget deficit. Moreover, the existing, outdated grid isn't updated to deal with modern power consumption. As a result, Belgium has ended up in a bind where recently owners of solar panels were barred from putting their surplus production on the grid, and the massive costs of subsidizing will need to be recouped. The already massively accrued costs to the public even before an energy transition can happen in earnest, pretty much render the debate moot.

Needless to say, Belgium is looking towards a future where it will probably be forced to reside to building new gas powered plants for the time being, and steep consumer prices for power.

There are probably more UFO sightings than the sample size of people losing an eye from a branch while walking. Probably in the history of humanity. How stupid would they have to be?

Do the branches you know prey on human eyes? Do they do that striking snake kung-fu move whenever they see a human eye?
The cost of an integrated circuit in the 1970s would be so prohibitive you couldn't even type this today if we used this argument.

Yup. That raspberry pi with stuff on it is a clever way of addressing a wider market. :-)

If you’re clever or worried about business continuity you can learn from the practices of some enterprise it providers and add built in self checks, call home, and even charge for preventative maintenance. For example, “We noticed your dongle is overheating / having flash issues / whatever and not running optimally. Here’s a replacement.” Or - “we noticed that your dongle hasn’t been used in a while. Is it ok?”

Easily possible. I'll give you a few scenarios I came up within just minutes.

Loss of coolant -> drop in reactivity -> overheat of core -> core melts, and falls into puddle of remaining water at the bottom of the reactor -> instant reactivity boost -> boom

Loss of coolant -> drop in reactivity -> overheat of core -> coolant comes back -> water spayed onto hot fuel -> steam flash -> steam-cladding reaction -> boom

Owning a domain-name is not some fundamental right or need. It's an artificial thing, whose operation is, in many countries, paid for by taxpayer money. The entire history of the Internet, and related inventions, are also filled with a lot of taxpayer funding(CERN, DARPA).
IMO it's a flaw in the system that allowed domainparking in the first-place, there should have been a built-in way to mitigate that issue.

It would be a lot different if this was say; a twitter-handle or an ICQ-number (like in the old days where the simple ICQ numbers could be sold for a lot of money), but the Internet is so close to being a public utility that it should be operated as such, and not like a town in the Wild West....

> We (I live in Germany) have more than 92% of the road ahead of us

FTR in 2020, 15% of Germany's primary energy needs came from renewables: https://www.umweltbundesamt.de/sites/default/files/medien/38...

So it's only 85% of the road ahead of us :).

As for missing space, you do have a point. At some point domestic renewable capacities will be exhausted. However, right now Germany imports most of its energy in various forms. Likely we'll keep importing it in the future, just that it will be generated renewably. Changing to renewables AND becoming fully self sufficient would demand too much I think. Not that there are any uranium mines in Germany either.

Just a few things you should consider:
- C++ is highly complex. The poster lower down claiming you already know 90% if you know C#/ObjC is simply wrong. The learning curve is steep.
- Your stated experience sounds a bit like "App developer" and while that gives you plenty of experience, the projects tend to be a bit smallish. C++ projects on the other hand can be huge and extremely complex. Think 4 hrs for a clean build, with 10+ people working on the same code base. You should consider if such a change is for you.
- Then again, the salaries you can draw as C++ developer reflect all that, especially the fact that C++ is not an easy language to pick up.
- Since you claim to be from Southern Germany: the automotive industry is particularly strong in that region. And not only in Stuttgart or Munich but also in e.g. Ulm. And they do most, if not all, their stuff in C++.
- C++ is going to stay. Software development for automotive is done in C/C++ as the MISRA standard more or less mandates it. And I do not know of any effort to change that, even by newer players in the field. So: don't worry. Learning C++ to a sufficiently advanced level will be a very good career investment, even in the long term.
- It is difficult to "vet" language in terms of the future they have. But as a rule of thumb you can say: the larger / more complex the code base, the longer the language will be around. C++ has a huge and complex code base, and companies tend to be conservative with such "investments". Shipyards still use Fortran, banks still use COBOL. Perl is still actively used in web development, despite Ruby on Rails.
- Finally: perhaps you are looking at the whole situation from the wrong angle, i.e. career advancement / employer loyalty. Why not instead ask yourself: what projects do I want to work on, and in what kind of industry? Then find out which language is pervasive through that domain and learn that. After all: C++ is modern compared to C. And there is still plenty of embedded development going on in C.
Modern web pages get me on this every time - I filed multiple bugs on our new site because there was so much whitespace that I didn't realize there was more content below the fold.

I suppose this has made "above the fold" more valuable, or perhaps mobile devices show so little content that everyone has to scroll ...
