schaum··on OsmAnd’s Faster Offline Navigation (2025)
Interesting project osmand user here mainly in Germany.

In some cities osm data is far more accurate when t comes to opening hours or if a shop actually still exists compared to Google maps. However searching for them is a pain that one needs a bug improvement.

Since I can't rely on the search I usually try to find the poi category and click though the results,super markets,restaurants, pharmacy,atm etc works but so many cliks and caveats. Search needs massive improvement.

This would be too reasonable.

Every few years I stumble across the same java or mongodb issue. I google for it, find it on stackoverflow, and figure that it was me who wrote that very answer. Always have a good laugh when it happens.

Usually my memory regarding such things is quite well, but this one I keep forgetting, so much so that I don't remember what the issue is actually about xD

schaum··on HeidiSQL Available Also for Linux
I used Datagrip like 10 years ago and it was amazing, back then I used some pre-release evaluation thingy, loved it, was only working with mysql though.

last year i looked at it again, in a project where mongodb is used, it did not perform so well, sure the features where there, but still mongodb is document orientated so i had to come up with workarounds and so ... yeah back to cli unfortunately

but for any relational database, I'd rather use datagrip!

schaum··on Microsoft Teams will soon block screen capture during meetings
Do you use netflix? Maybe similar when taking a screenshot there you end up with black where the video is playing

I can totally imagine that they will do something similar,so I guess it's pretty simple to implement if done like that

schaum··on Eavesdropping on smartphone 13.56MHz NFC polling during screen wake-up/unlock
Andoird has an airplane mode Once enabled airplane mode you can enable Bluetooth again and airplane mode stays on,so just no mobile data an.same is true for WiFi.

NFC however isn't touched by the airplane mode

...At least it was like that on the android phones I owned

schaum··on Deploying Kubernetes with Ansible
couldn't agree more, but we are "stuck" in managed ansible + k8s

although i think kustomize wouldn't make a nicer picture than ansible, but push vs pull .. i prefer pull

schaum··on K8s Lens – No Logs or Shell Buttons
lens, the k8s app, becomes partly closed source making it more or less unusable
schaum··on Frame.work laptop now accepting pre-orders from UK, Germany and France
just verified by the frame.work 3DS is not functional yet, it will be implemented the coming weeks. So basically one can't order one from Germany (at least)

"we are aware of the issue with 3DS Secure payments and we are prioritizing a resolution and expect to have a fix in the coming weeks."

schaum··on Frame.work laptop now accepting pre-orders from UK, Germany and France
Unfortunetly my credit card (visa) does not work on their side. says it got rejected. I talked with my bank and they replied that is because they did not do the 3dsecure trickery (basically second authentication token), which is mandatory in germany for creditcard since beginning of 2021.

Can someone verify that?

schaum··on Ask HN: What are these low quality “code snippet” sites?
annoyed by that too, weirdly enough they pop up for certain queries and for others they don't. i have also seen that for github issues ..

but i switched to https://www.ecosia.org/ as my main search engine, and i like the results much more than on google - nothing special, but somehow more reliable/predictable. and meanwhile you plant some trees :P

schaum··on Ask HN: Would You Work for Amazon?
