Chains will usually ship the dough frozen from a central location, you then defrost it the night before you want to serve it. That means you need to project your sales for the next night otherwise it’ll go bad. If you get it majorly wrong you’ll be left with a load of dough that is bad

7000 years ago 95% of the male population died off. Based on our discovery of mass graves showing violent deaths from this time, the most likely explanation is that there was a globe spanning slaughter of people - prehistoric people were people too, they had the same flaws that we do now

The most likely explanation for why 95% of the male population died around 5000BC is because of a mass breakout of war, people forget that prehistory had the same humans that we have today

Manufacturers would probably require owners to go to their garages, autonomous cars would probably kill of most independent mechanics. Then we’ll see massive price gouging and planned obsolescence - this is the same industry that had widespread cheating on emission testing after all

These are hurdles that will need to be overcome, a required service schedule would probably achieve most of this though.

Most people will quite happily drive cars believing they are fine - I will often drive a car and have to point out to friends that their brakes are worn, or their tyres are unsafe, the majority of people driving unsafe cars aren’t choosing to ignore safety issues, they don’t know that they’re unsafe in the first place. A computer that can look at the general trend in vibration or engine and braking efficiency would be a vast improvement for the majority of car drivers

If we get to the point of self-driving cars, it’d make sense that the car would refuse to drive if it’s unsafe enough

I’ve stopped using bare env files on the repo, I’ll create an env file that populates values from a secrets manager and check this file info git. Or throw the env file info a parent dir because they’re probably user specific anyway.

Having an env file that needs to exist but isn’t checked into source control creates “works on my machine” issues as well, just load them from the environment and provide a programmatic way of setting the environment (or stop pretending they’re part of the project and use direnv/Mise to setup the env)

This is pretty cool and solves one of the problems I’ve had whilst playing around with things like Cursor: that it breaks my flow having to wait 5-10 minutes for it to generate code/documentation, I’d really like to use that time to focus on my main work whilst it does some grunt work. Worktrees looks like it might provide a solution to this

Anyone talking about society 20,000 years ago is bullshitting. We have no records for how these societies operated anything but a superficial level.

This is Jordan Peterson and Evelutionary Psychology levels of scientific rigor.

People are concerned about the hesitance he’s had for actually doing anything. He campaigned saying he’d release the names, then has proceeded not to do so, tried to deflect and say it’s a non-issue that people should forget about, that there were no other people involved beyond Maxwell and Epstein. For someone that claims to have nothing to hide, and was previously friends with Epstein (in itself not incriminating of course) he’s doing a piss poor job of convincing people he wasn’t involved in things with Epstein.

This shouldn’t be a partisan issue, everyone who was involved should be prosecuted, the fact no progress has been made since 2019 is on both the Democrats and Republicans heads - any idiot can see there is a cover up going on, and the only reasonable explanation seems to be that both sides will be damaged in equal measure by the fallout - for all Trump’s protestations of being outside the establishment, he sure does look and sound like an establishment guy

Would you trust it at this point though? The most likely explanation in my mind is that both Dems and Republicans are on the list, including DT. Dems didn’t release it prior to the election because it’d blow back on them as well, and Trump thought he could get away with running on releasing it and then never actually doing it - which has now backfired. This whole thing stinks

I’m not convinced raising a whole living being that eats plants, and harvesting its skin is that much more energy efficient than just using a plant fibre

Oh 100%, I’m a republican (lowercase R, in the British sense). I just find it ironic that the US portrays itself as having removed monarchy, when it was just replaced with dictator that has a term limit

You’re conflating colourism with racism, I’m guessing you’re in the US and your primary exposure to racism is via colourism?

This is patently false and just a rehash of the same old attitude we’ve seen so frequently before.

If you’re going to be a bigot at least try and be original

Ironically, our king has incredibly limited power that is enforced by a strong belief that religion should be separate from politics and an independent judiciary. Your king doesn’t seem to have the same hurdles

Hetzner VMs generally, there are a couple of issues I’ve needed to workaround like private IP assignment with terraform, but other than that, if you’re comfortable deploying a k8s cluster yourself, just throw things on the cluster. The VMs aren’t the fastest but they give the biggest bang for your buck.

I’m currently experimenting with scaleway, but the cost is pretty high, so I’ll probably just migrate over to dedicated machines in hetzner and add more machines as the cluster grows

Not as far as I know, but the self-hosting community is generally moving over to VM runners and off the vendored solutions, any cloud provider can give you those.

Scaleway gives the most was style of services like managed kubernetes, FAAS, managed gateway etc. you pay for the convenience though.

Whilst WhatsApp is still owned by meta and I’m sure the US military would have a lot use for the metadata they collect, let’s be honest, I’m sure Putin would prefer if Russians switched to a platform they can spy on themselves

From what I’ve heard from Americans, the standard of dress for basic tasks like going to the shop is apparently high compared to the same in America
