Delmololo··on Germany has too many solar panels, pushed energy prices into negative territory
Of course you can.

I asked a few. They make between 1-4 kWh on a cloudy winter day.

Sooo all those new Megawatt projects happening in Germany are elusive?

At least in Munich (big city btw) a lot of basement parking exist due to laws were you need to build this space when having a flat.

In my area with a lot of 4 story buildings every one of them has one.

And yes it's not just the laws it's often also old people being against it like in my case. What helped were laws.

It's a stupid take.

The onboard computer on my ev is the same system as on non ev fords

Delmololo··on Germany has too many solar panels, pushed energy prices into negative territory
Why incompetent?

Having a lot of solar is good.

We can export it to neighbors and it motivates other actors in the market to invest in getting this cheap sun energy which creates more pressure on dirty energy.

That we don't life in a planed market is obvious otherwise all those things would not be necessary but we don't life in a perfect market

Delmololo··on Ask HN: Devs/data scis who pivoted to a new career in 30s/40s, what do you do?
Wow.

I like your art but how do you make money with it?

Delmololo··on iTerm2 and AI Hype Overload
No.

To accelerate ai for Photoshop, after effects, local enhanced Siri, voice to text and text to voice.

Delmololo··on iTerm2 and AI Hype Overload
That's just not true for so many tools.

You find something and discover after trying it out that you have the gnu version or Mac version or a outdated or much newer version of the tool.

Than I give up, scroll through some shitty man page to slowly pull out one option after the other.

Delmololo··on iTerm2 and AI Hype Overload
Guess why Apple made m4?

Why Windows is adding an ai key?

Not sure what Ubuntu and other distributions will do but they will probably add it too.

(I'm not against this, just stating it)

Delmololo··on Google Photos is creating a deep fake of you and calling it Cinematic Memory
There was a story somewhere that a young person showed an ai version of grandpa to grandma and she loved it (or something similar).

People will like this feature.

I'm already intrigued by the post tbh.

Delmololo··on iTerm2 and AI Hype Overload
It doesn't matter if a small group of nerds don't like it.

No one really rips out iTerm2 from a mac setup and they can throw their Mac out of the window with iTerm2 if they really hate AI that much (because it has ai and will get more, you had to get out of your way with Siri and co already anyway...)

And as I said it before: this is not a hype. Look it up. Ai delivers already things it doesn't fit hype.

And no ai will not go away, at least I'm not seeing a single thing right now indicating a platoon very soon.

I mean what is your problem?

Do you think Google is not analysing your pictures even when it creates highligh memories for years or has semantic search?

That's why you use it.

Delmololo··on Ask HN: Video streaming is expensive yet YouTube "seems" to do it for free. How?
That doesn't work on my LG tv
Delmololo··on Ask HN: Video streaming is expensive yet YouTube "seems" to do it for free. How?
Yt basically got unusable without premium though.

I have premium, my wife accepts all of those ads

Delmololo··on Ask HN: Video streaming is expensive yet YouTube "seems" to do it for free. How?
You can.

Yt for example deletes your 720p after a while and replaces it with a potato.

And if you watch a old not relevant yt and it starts after 10 seconds instead of now, no one really cares.

You can put that old highly encoded potato at your huge and cheap storage system de located somewhere around the globe were it's just cheap (energy).

You can also calculate in the time for a band robot and only store half or the first minute of that potato on your cheap storage and let the robot grab the rest of it.

After all if video is your main thing plenty of weird optimizations start to make sense.

Delmololo··on Swiss' Entire Boeing 777 Fleet Now Has Shark Skin Technology
I haven't thought that air travel can be made significantly better but I think 5 years ago or so I flew the dream liner for the first time and it was so much quieter and so much better because of it.

Anyone knows how long a airplane has to fly to be written of?

Delmololo··on OpenAI departures: Why can’t former employees talk?
Why should they?

It's absolutely normal not to spill internals.

Delmololo··on Making a Postgres query 1k times faster
Actually it's not a breaking change.

You can switch the uuid generation, wait a little bit and add an.'archive' switch which will use the old and slower query when the date is old.

Should definitely be helpful resource wise for a lot of people

Delmololo··on Students invent quieter leaf blower
It's probably just not a market anyone really cares.

The person who does it a few times a year just buys something cheap.

The professional needs to have it running the whole day. No cable and just noise means that the boss saves money and the worker can just use ear protection.

Delmololo··on Earth rotation limits in-body image stabilization to 6.3 stops (2020)
You should be able to calculate it out by telling the user to press a button and after this, not rotating the camera away.

Right?

Might just not be practical at all.

On the other hand, shouldn't the earth rotate fast enough to figure this out in a short timeframe while the photographer starts looking through the finder?

Delmololo··on Making a Postgres query 1k times faster
Yes and sooner this gets started the better.

Otherwise it will cost more and more.

Especially for a chat app!

Delmololo··on HBase Deprecation at Pinterest
Woman use it a lot.

My wife has a Pinterest board.

Delmololo··on Making a Postgres query 1k times faster
In this case they should switch to uuidv7 or similar to have this guarantee

This post is from a few days back.

Does mm not have the stats table active and check it sometimes for this kid of issues?

Delmololo··on Fastest rate of natural carbon dioxide rise over the last 50k years
The fact that you can now ask an LLM in a chat like fashion is absolutely irrelevant to you?

Not an achievement at all?

Talking to an ai?

Generating any image you like?

Etc.?

Delmololo··on Fastest rate of natural carbon dioxide rise over the last 50k years
On the surface perhaps.

Btw hype is defined as exaggerated claims but the ai 'hype' train is not hype.

We already use all those tools daily.

It has real impact and makes real money

Delmololo··on Fastest rate of natural carbon dioxide rise over the last 50k years
We have now chips with 20petaflops.

The weekly news regarding AI are always adding new things to ai.

We started pouring billions into ai.

The amount of new research papers regarding AI are exploding.

I would argue that it is not marketing hype or aluminum hat thinking to take that serious

Delmololo··on Gemini Flash
But the race to the bottom has an opposition right?

So people expect to see a return of investment which will create the bottom of pricing (at least as soon as the old money ran out)

I'm also curious if AI is a good example because ai will become fundamental. This means if you don't invest you might be gone therefore it's more like a fee in case the investment would not pan out.

TX will have a look.

I will buy a small farm this year (if I'm lucky) and I do believe your general approach is very interesting.

Let see how it continues.

Regarding sprinkler etc. I saw a bigger drown spraying stuff. If the autonomy is very reliable you could refill it regularly.

Sprinkler I'm really not convinced but we don't have a lot of sprinklers in field in Germany.

Might be a little bit waist full from a water perspective
