I’m just thinking survival, instinctively, and not about bystanders around me in that moment.
Kind of fair point for yourself.
However I expect more of a trained professional who has repeated firarms training. They should be sesitized to controlling their direction of fire even in an emergency.
Unrelated to triangles, I mean, sorry! Of course it’s very topical.
Great joke man! The unrelated Greek term plausibly masquarading as another geometical term, brilliant!
I vote that it should. Sounds like good drama, the kind you’d expect seeing a love-triangle tag on a fancfiction site.
It seems to boil down to the question of how much you believe in the Recs market working.
The way I understand those Recs is, they pay extra to have green energy produced, but it’s not in the location where they are actually using energy. So their actual energy use is much more grey than what they pay for, but they essentially say as long as the correct pricing signal reaches the location independant energy market this is good for green energy buildup.
Now the idea behind that must be that it’s more sensible to support green energy production in places where projects are being built, where they perhaps can be most efficiently built, rather than trying to bribe the local suppliers into building green energy locally, where perhaps the location isn’t even well suited. It’s kind of understandable from that perspective.
But I can see how there would be lots of corrupting influences here. The companies local to the green electricity producers can factually claim that the local power is greenly produced without paying for the Recs, and the remote companies can pay the Recs and claim they are supporting green energy. In the end you have a sort of double counting of the green energy, swallowing up some of the market demand for an actual buildup of more green energy capacity. Or even more nefarious, maybe a company could start issuing more Recs than green energy production actually justifies.
The system also masks out the issue of actually transmitting and storing the green energy from where and when it’s produced to where and when it’s needed. Even if you have perfect Recs accounting in the system, nothing guarantees that the pricing signals align time wise. Green energy prices should be higher during the night or winter, but that’s not reflected in time independant Recs.
And finally the existance of the Recs system absolves the data center builder from choosing a location where green energy can be produced or transmitted to. If this ends up placing a datacenter close to a coal power station, and then they buy Recs from a solar park in a desart far away. In the end this makes it harder for the local community to overcome the need for the coal power station. It might have been possible to build enough local green energy and storage without the datacenter next door, but once it’s there soaking up lots of local capacity it’s going to be much harder to replace the local grey producer.
are likely about 662% – or 7.62 times – higher than officially reported.
This annoys me. If the value is 662% higher than reported, then it is also:
Whether you use percentage or a factor doesn’t change the principle. “as high” signals a new value that is a straight multiple, “higher than” signals a change that is a multiple, so always assume a base of 1 or 100% on which the change is added.
By the way 1 and 100% is the exact same thing, and so is 662% and 6.62. Percent aren’t magical they are just a short form for saying hundredths of 1.
In everyday speech they also signal that you’re talking about a fractional value in relation to a different one that is hopefully clear from context. But it isn’t always and people abuse that too.
Maybe some Lua, as a treat?
Who speaks about how hot a person is to a crowd just before they are slated to join you on the stage anyway? Ultra cringe.

Depends on wether I want them to understand. If I just say we are the ISP for universities and other schools of higher education then they mostly go, “Ah okay”, but it seems like no one has any idea what that means. I feel like despite using them daily people don’t even know what a network is sometimes.
If Qt or Java is doing it, then that’s still your program and not the WM, though?
In German we call the floors “Geschoss” we have “Erdgeschoss” (earth-floor) and then “Obergeschoss” (above-floor) “Untergeschoss” (under-floor). So you have the ground floor called EG, above it is 1.OG then 2.OG, etc. From the EG downwards there is the 1.UG and further down the 2.UG, etc.
With this terminology there can’t be any confusion, because there needs to be a reference floor from which to count up and down. Lucky us.

They have offices and datacenters in the EU. So forced physical entry and interruption to their operations would be the next escalation step.
First of all patents run out generally after 20 years. And then everyone can use your technology.
The whole idea of patents is incitivising inventors to publish their invention for everyone to see. In exchange they get a period of exclusivity. This way they also don’t have to deal with as many trade secrets.
I love how this comment suggests every fucking alternative doesn’t or wouldn’t.
How did you get that from their sentence, what the fuck?
There’s generally higher throughout if people just stand on both sides.
Throughput isn’t everything though, for instance in train stations some people hurry for a connection, I would say let the latency sensitive ones bypass the others, except in situation where there is a concrete throughput issue.
Talk about high risk low to medium reward, holy shit what a daredevil
