Italy (and many other European countries) could be great and wealthy countries once again, if only it wasn't for the witless bureaucrats in charge. The only thing we seem to be innovative at is coming up with ridiculous amounts of useless regulation.

I should have phrased it differently, sorry.

But you can't. It's like saying "we used to have to bike uphill through a storm to get to school! Both ways!"

Actually exactly the opposite.

Green parties convinced people wind and solar would suffice. Now the net can't deal with the peaks and throughs. Here in the NL already one of our biggest tech companies is not opening a new datacenter because of lack of electricity available. We used to laugh at countries not having enough power...

Noone goes without sleep for three days and doesnt pay a severe heavy price for it. Stop it with that dumb sleep machismo...

I pay more for a faster PC and a bigger screen.

I also pay for better AI. My - and probably your time - and the time saved by using superior tooling, is worth far more than the meagre few dollars spent each month on some subscription.

You're stepping over dollars to pick up dimes.

Difference is is that I can just switch to another LLM.

I cant really do the same for Google.

Were Microsoft, Google, Amazon and Tesla/Twitter(x), and a whole bunch of other gigantic (Chinese aswell) corporations trying to compete for the same market back then?

I don't think Netflix and Uber had even a fraction of the competition that this field will have.

Lucky you! LOL. Hope it doesnt come with the nasty comedown :P

Please get an air purifier with a HEPA filter...

Ikea sells a reasonable air purifier AND seperate sensors nowadays!

I'd wear this! This would also be very cool to share with others, form like a network to get a clearer picture of air quality

Super interesting, thanks for sharing

I had them after an accidental too big MDMA dose, after which I felt depressed for a few weeks.

There are very few jobs that provides as little value as being a landlord. Imagine all of them dying tomorrow, what happens? People just keep on living as usual, maybe they'll have to clean their own drain and paint their poorly maintained (ex)rental unit...

Its the upscale equivalent of ticket or GPU scalping (the practice of buying up all material and simply only upselling it for more money).

Parasites of the system.

People, get air filters inside of your house and especially your bedroom. Anything with a HEPA filter. I personally have a Winix and a dyson fan, quite happy with it.

You'll be surprised what it picks up over time, and consequently what you end up not inhaling...

341usd? more like 35000. Change the title.

pimeyes.com does exactly this.

TL;DR

You shouldn't need to assemble a plane when your startups journey can be expected to only last a few kilometers and you really only need to carry a few boxes.

Funny I drew the same conclusion. Previously a cloud architect at Microsoft, now I don't use Azure anymore for the project I am working on right now.

Rather, I have decided to opt for Supabase instead. Probably over the long time it may cause issues for my startup - but even more realistically my startup is going to fail and my increased developer velocity by using simple tooling like this will allow me to figure out why my idea doesn't work in in a shorter amount of time, so I can go on to my next pursuit.

To be honest I think even using docker is overengineering.

It's adoption failed because you needed understanding of underlying protocols in order to get it to work

A literal monkey could post on Reddit.

That's the difference and that's why usenet never got widespread adoption

You are grossly overestimating or misremembering how user friendly usenet was for anyone who doesn't know what a server or port is

Usenet was used by about almost exclusively people with an IT or engineering background.

Reddit is used by a far wider and larger audience, both relatively and absolutely.

First thing that came to my mind too, always wonder whether we'd ever get that far. Can we make our brains persist on ice?

I've heard people apply a foul tasting chemicals to their fingers for a while to help condition yourself to not bite on them.

This is super cool and I really like the fact that you added the dates. Puts things in perspective!

Interesting. In the Netherlands our prime minister candidate was killed a while ago. Killer was on the street within ten years. Imagine that? Someone killing Kamala Harris and being allowed on the street again after ten years?

Volkert van de Graaf. Look it up...

Compared to that 15 years is quite excessive...

I'd rather they spend it on projects like these, where at least some people get joy playing videogames for work. Alternative is they get together and cook up some of the worst bureaucratic dogshit wrapped in catshit they call quality legislation.

Dutch (as a Dutch guy I think I'm allowed to say it). Not exactly known for our hospitality or generosity
