Ksuite is literally a google workspace competitor nothing unfocused about that. My company uses them for everything works well.
The idea that science progresses by lone wolf geniuses disrupting the status quo is simply false. It makes a good story for low budget documentaries, but it is basically never true.
Many of the dumb ideas being hyped in this AI bubble make sense viewed through this lens. Data centres stirring up opposition? Sell a sci-fi vision that you will move them to Space! And reassure your over-extended…
The problem in practice is that quickly one merges into the other. You start with a markdown readme, then you have markdown documentation for a small project. But then one day you need full documentation for your…
Sqlite is a great bit of technology but sometimes I read articles like this and think, maybe they should have used postgres. I you don’t specifically need the “one file portability” aspect of sqlite, or its not embedded…
Thats the very definition of “anecdata”. (Anecdotes you mistake for representative data)
As European it really struck me how poor the second hand ev market must be in the US. For the “cheap second hand car to do short distances” we have a lot of options really cheap - older gen Renault Zoe and Peugeot…
The lengths people go to not to make walkable cities (and insulated buildings, fast trains.. you know, all the stuff that actually exists and works)
"The future is..." well it might be until the next fashion change comes about.
This will happen for sure. Designs are fashions that come and go, like jeans that go from skinny to baggy and back again. I don't think anything is absolute, tastes change and people get used to just about anything, and…
Did my phd around that time and did a project “scaling” my work on a spark cluster. Huge pita and no better than my local setup which was an MBP15 with pandas a postgres (actually I wrote+contributed a big chunk of…
Finance bro decides tweets are better evidence than physics… nothing to see here
Hardly surprising that an administration that built its brand on “post truth” has no interest in the good functioning of academic research
Seems like a lot of effort to go to rather than just use Firefox or Safari...
there is also not that much money in the state run that the majority of people education follow. Teacher salaries are already squeezed. Its ironic, everyone says get a good education, old grumps complain the kids don’t…
Company: Planeto (early stage cleantech startup) Planeto develops next generation software for design and operation of clean district heating and cooling networks, to accelerate adoption of renewable energies for zero…
two reasons: 1 is im very familiar with the field and 2 i think it’s both common enough not to be dismissible as a weird edge case (you’ll find at least one architect in most towns and the construction industry as a…
This is a very narrow minded take. Notebooks are used mostly by scientists who are just using code as a research tool. Being able to explore to learn is incredibly useful. Using them in production is a perfect bridge…
From a purely engineering standpoint maybe, but that’s also not fully the point of these programs. Look at the suppliers and you will see money going to every state, spread across many regions. This is as much a public…
Steam deck must have booster the numbers a lot
I might have missed the memo where Gnuplot has a better api than matplot ;) Seriously though, there have been many attempts to make a "better matplotlib" and yet it's still going strong - mostly because when you really…
Philosophically the question is not much different than “do we only exist in the mind of a deity”. It’s impossible to determine (since any search for “proof” would rely on assumptions about this external reality that…
Sounds good
You can define Before, After, or WantedBy to define the dependency order. Systemd them makes sure to start services in the right order, it starts them by default but you can also configure services not to start if…
Telemetry and spyware are not the same thing (irrespective of whatever Firefox is doing). There is a big difference between tracking to try to understand how users are using a software or getting information on bugs and…
