I highly recommend the book Joy of Mixology by Gary Regan. It categorizes cocktails into logical groupings that explain how to methodically substitute an ingredient to adjust the flavor without creating an imbalanced drink. Most unique cocktails you find at bars are twists on existing themes, so once you grok those fundamentals it becomes easier to recognize what was tweaked.
Yes, and thats what makes the decision very notable. The article touches on the implications, but Politiken is not a technical news media so nothing in depth.

I disagree with the premise that a typewriter is a lousy first-draft device. My old-school writing technique before I got my first computer was to type a first draft (on a manual typewriter), full of typos and ^H^H^HXXX corrections. Since I had a manual typewriter back in high school, but tended not to have paper for it, most of those first drafts were typed onto whatever paper I could come up with. Then, I would edit it on paper and do a clean draft on the electric typewriter at the school newspaper office, using liquid paper to fix the inevitable typos.

I still do something similar now, although I use Word instead of a typewriter. I print the first draft, edit on paper and retype from scratch for a second draft. I always print that and do (at least) one more editing round afterwards. Sometimes I may do a complete retype deep into the revising practice as things become more dramatically changed.

Modern e-ink displays can update at about 2 Hz at highest quality and at up to ~8--10 Hz, possibly better, with reduced quality (more ghosting / lower resolution).

If usage is for reasonably static material and navigation tends to be via pagination rather than scroll, it works quite well.

Full video is possible, if of lower quality than on an emissive display.

Correct, that's why it's in the top. Your example further confirms why the author's methodology is broken.
I really don't see what the European endgame is here. They seem to be backing themselves into a corner where due to superficial regulations they will be forced to select from a smaller pool of smaller companies with worse internal controls, worse inside risk defenses, and worse production security practices than the larger, more established, and more sophisticated multinationals. They are doing this for "privacy" but the practical outcome is going to be that whatever data they were trying to defend will be more readily available to top-tier national adversaries (China, Russia, U.S. foreign intelligence), more prone to accidental revelation, more subject to rogue insider practices, and more exposed to smaller-scale intelligence agencies that just happen to share a European jurisdiction, like the notoriously ham-handed and overreaching German BND.
Only as complex as you want to make it! My very first Pokemon game was a case statement where you picked your first Pokemon and it emulated the dialogue.

It's a US cultural thing for sure [0]. Just say something like "good", "fine", "ok", and maybe follow up and ask it back.

And I'm not surprised people said they were sincere when asked about it. By confronting them about it, you put them on the spot with two options: claim sincerity, or admit insincerity. The third hidden true option of "It's a US culture thing, don't read too much into it" isn't something most people are consciously aware of. Thus, of the two available options, they pick the one that doesn't put them in the wrong.

Many homes in UK are well insulated, at least compared to the wooden barns popular in the US. One day of extreme heat can be well tolerated, just by closing the windows in the morning. The problem is that it is very hard to expel the excess heat overnight, so a long series of merely moderately hot days can quickly render homes unbearable to live in.

Not to take away credit from Greg Robinson (or other many people involved in the project management), but to say that he fixed it as if a miracle happened is exaggerating.

The project had to be delayed, cost-overrun, de-scoped in some small areas, to get it onto some schedule that could then be followed and predictable. If you cut enough things you can "rescue" a project back onto schedule.

It's not like he (or anyone else) turned back time and gave us a miracle. It's an interesting "people story" though.
> if you live entirely on that diet it's quite difficult to get fat

I believe that for myself, being able to eat like a king from many different culinary traditions has been a major factor in my fat gain.

"Obesity is a major health risk, with junk food consumption playing a central role in weight gain, because of its high palatability and high-energy nutrients. The Cafeteria (CAF) diet model for animal experiments consists of the same tasty but unhealthy food products that people eat (e.g. hot dogs and muffins), and considers variety, novelty and secondary food features, such as smell and texture. This model, therefore, mimics human eating patterns better than other models." - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33309818/#:~:text=The%20Cafe....

you'll grow more as a developer from rust. Rust will force you to think about things like memory management, safety etc. additionally, it has a rich set of abstractions. rust also has better interop with c and c++. In the long run, you're better off learning rust. You'll encounter a brutal learning curve but once you know it, you'll find yourself able to do very powerful things with ease. especially once you internalize the borrow checker.

Go is a great language for the short term but I don't feel like it brings Anything unique or interesting to the profession. its only real advantage is that its quick to learn but there isn't much substance.

That is the point I was making. It's not a proper terminal emulator, instead it's a half-assed one. If it gets between the user's keystrokes and the host shell, it should be a proper emulator. Otherwise it should set up the environment and get out of the way.

He's making fun of the failure of autocorrect ML models, I believe
You probably created a cname from the apex to www? This problem still exists today.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNAME_record: "If a CNAME record is present at a node, no other data should be present; this ensures that the data for a canonical name and its aliases cannot be different."

So if you're looking up the MX record for domain, but happen to find a cname for domain to www.domain , it will follow that and won't find any MX records for www.domain.

The correct approach is to create a cname record from www.domain to domain, and have the A record (and MX and other records) on the apex.

Most DNS providers have a proprietary workaround to create dns-redirects on the apex (such as AWS Route53 Alias records) and serve them as A records, but those rarely play nice with external resources.

Yesssss!

So my diet is usually very strict. I will mostly only eat salmon, mackerel, oysters and mussels, and a lot of berries with some breads and rice. No plant oils at all and very low carb, but not no carb.

I only resorted to this diet because I had a series of metabolic disorders in my self and in my family and I also know my genetics. I have the changes to FADS1, FADS2, and CPT1A which make me much more sensitive to Omega 6 fats that most European Caucasians. See it turns out I have more Sami blood in me than I thought and so I am in reality more Inuit when it comes to what I need from my diet.

I most certainly feel most satiated and loose weight even when eating the same amount of calories when I am following this diet. I was a low fat vegan for five years in an attempt to correct my cholesterol, and I was a good vegan too, no junk food. But all it did was lower my HDL and barely reduce by LDL. (I was diagnosed with mild hyperlipidemia). After seeing my geteicss and changing my diet, my HDL rose over 35 for the first time in my life. Now it stays steady at between 50 and 55

Now I am only more sensitive to these fats. Meaning that anyone, even with non-Inuit genetics, will succumb to the higher levels of Omega 6 that course through the modern food industry if they over do it.

European tech companies complying with European regulations won't be able to compete with American companies that flaunt European regulations until they hold those American companies accountable and deny them access to the European market if they can't play by European rules. Enforcement of these regulations against American corporations will give the European software industry more room to breath.
Or put differently, the EU wants to set a reasonable standard of living for their citizens and need to also compete against race to the bottom nations like China and the US without effective use of tariffs, so yeah not so effective.
>>A lot of people said I don't know what I'm talking about, that little money would be saved.

Those are the ignorant ones.

It isn't quite a "Those who know don't speak and those who speak don't know" situation, but this is just blindingly obvious to anyone who has done any R&D to manufacturing and risk assessment. Heck, even just having a duplicate on the ground to debug could save the mission (since there isn't one, let's hope it doesn't come to that).

On one-off projects of any size, the design, prototyping, testing, & refining the design just overwhelm the cost of fabricating the final parts — and they do it by orders of magnitude. Just for the carbon fiber parts I work in daily, the initial R&D test program for a sizeable (scale of 1 m^2) part might cost $25K, the first mold $12K, the first part sells for $3K, the second part $2K and the fifth part 1.7K. To get to volume production in the 100s, there's probably another dev program & set of molds, and the 300th part out the door might sell at $1200.

If the nation of Switzerland was singlehandedly dying on the hill of privacy concerns while the whole world laughed and moved on I think your take would be the correct one - but Europe is a big economy and it has an immense amount of tech talent. SoCal may still be the Mecca of technology but Europe is no slouch - by taking a stand they are opening up a market for privacy conscious applications to thrive. In the best world Europe's actions will benefit us all in the long run and we might see a big player pivot to actually meaningfully adhere to the privacy concerns - in a less good world we'll probably see a fair amount of competition by small players within the Eurozone to provide the best software solutions while also respecting privacy.

I think it's a fair criticism to fear that the data may end up in the hands of well intentioned but poorly secured applications that cause larger leaks, but we've seen huge leaks in the US even from companies that exist solely due to the value of their data (i.e. Equifax).
I have been quasi-DeGoogleified for nearly a decade.

The main thing standing in my way is the family domain hosted by Google. There are few enough of us, not using it for anything but family stuff, that Google is letting us keep it for free. Though I have an account at that domain (since I'm the administrator), I don't use the domain anymore.

Other than that, except for an occasional foray into YouTube and a !g search when DDG isn't satisfactory, I pretty much ignore Google. I'm still more entangled than I want to be, but better than I was.
