even if you steal my password (database)

That’s a big leap you’re doing there, equating stealing a password to stealing a password database. Those are very different. Stealing a password can be done through regular phishing, or a host of other methods that don’t require targeted effort. Stealing a password database, if properly set up, is a lot harder than that. It depends of course on what password manager you’re using, but it usually involves multiple factors itself. So equating that to just a password, no matter how strong and random, is just misleading.

Mind you, I agree that it’s less secure than “proper” MFA, and I’m not saying that everybody should just use MFA through a PW manager. I am using physical security keys myself. But for a lot of regular people that otherwise just couldn’t be bothered, it’s absolutely a viable alternative that makes them a whole lot safer for comparatively little effort. Telling them they just shouldn’t bother at all is just going to create more victims. There is no such thing as perfect security, and everyone has a different risk profile.

More like 1.5FA, at least. It still protects against passwords being compromised in any way that doesn’t compromise full access to your password database, which is still a lot better than using just passwords without a second factor.

For electric heating, you basically only have two options, heat pumps and resistive. Within just that comparison, 100% is the lower limit.

If you want to compare it to other types of heating, efficiency becomes much harder to measure, because the inputs can differ.

If you’re using electricity generated by burning fossil fuels it’s simple enough, but the “100% efficient” resistive heating loses again because you could just burn the same fossil fuels in your home to heat it directly which is much more efficient.

If you’re using renewable power, then “efficiency” kinda becomes meaningless because you’re using entirely different resources to produce the heat, so you can only try to abstract it by using either money or environmental impact per unit of heat as a stand-in. I don’t have the numbers on it right now so correct me if I’m wrong, but I think resistive heating would actually be more expensive than fossil-fuel based heating, generally speaking - there’s a reason that it’s not really a wide-spread thing for heating whole homes.

So unless I’m wrong on something here, resistive heating is really not going to be among the most efficient options, unless you specifically only look at environmental impact and are using regenerative sources for it. But even then, the heat pump just wins by miles.

It is solid logic, as long as you’re only utilizing heat that would have been produced anyway, independent of whether it’s used productively or not. It goes bad if you start justifying inefficient hardware for longer than you otherwise would have because of it.

if you are entitled to using a paid version for free (e. g. students, educators) you cannot opt-out of sharing your code.

That is incorrect. According to the page you linked elsewhere:

For individuals on non-commercial licenses: Data sharing is enabled by default, but you can turn it off anytime in the settings.

(Emphasis mine)

And for all other cases it’s opt-in. No idea how you got from that that you cannot opt-out. It literally says the opposite.

Not in Germany. The amount of vacation is based on the amount of days you work, not the hours. The goal is that everyone should be able to take at least a total of 4 weeks off per year. That means you get 20 days of vacation if you work a regular 5 day week. If you work a 6 day week, you get 24, but that is pretty unusual.

So, if you work fewer hours, that only matters for your vacation if those hours are also done across fewer days. If you only work 10 hours a week, but spread them across all five days, you still need 5 days to take an entire week off, so you still get the 20 days.

But anyway most employers will give you closer to 30 anyway, so the legal minimum usually only matters when it comes to things like transferring to the next year or paying out untaken vacation, because the rules differ there between mandatory and additional vacation days

“only” 20 of those by law, though. Most employers will give you more than that, but it’s not guaranteed

Maybe it’s just a bad joke

You might have to sign out and then in again. There was a bug with the initial release that caused this kind of behavior

Idk know what editor you’re using, but it worked perfectly fine out of the box with IntelliJ. Nothing compared to the hassle of setting up a proper Eslint setup for typescript, honestly.

And I’m not trying to defend python here, I don’t touch that language except under duress, and I do prefer C-style code blocks as well. But this is kind of a pointless argument.

there is a direct correlation between the size of the campaign and the number of monitors at the bottom.

From my limited experience, it’s the size/amount of monitors at the top that correlates with company size, not at the bottom. At my 5-person software company, almost everyone works with multiple screens, except one of the three founders who still works mainly on a laptop display at least

How do you have your shortcuts set up for this? And if you don’t mind me asking, what desktop environment / window manager are you using?

I don’t have any experience with Mega/Mattel stuff so far, so can’t really compare those. From what I hear, the quality of pieces is okay, but not on the same level as Lego and gobricks (the manufacturer that provides the bricks for both Lumibricks and Pantasy, among others).

If you actually want to give them a shot, just make sure you get relatively recent-ish sets (released within the last 2 years or so), as especially Lumibricks has very rapidly been refining the quality of their set designs, instructions etc, and gobricks pieces from before that time also tend to have quite strong clutch power which they’ve softened up by now. It’s really cool to see how quickly things are improving at the high end currently

My recommendation is Lumibricks or Pantasy. They’re not quite 1/3 of the price of Lego, more around 1/2 on average I think, but both offer the best brick quality that you’re going to get from any company at the moment (they use the same supplier, gobricks). They’re also both offering exclusively original designs, so no copied sets or anything like that, and doing a lot of stuff setting them apart from Lego. Lumibricks has light kits integrated seamlessly into every set and goes hard on printed pieces, no stickers anywhere. Pantasy likes using lots of metallic painted pieces, bigger custom molded pieces, and has a few interesting IPs.

If you’re into Technic, there’s also CaDa, and if you want very accurate display models you could look into Cobi. The later is a polish company that designs and produces entirely in Europe, in contrast to any other brand out there, but that also comes with a price tag that’s pretty similar to Lego at this point.

Bluebrixx is definitely around that 1/3 of lego prices. They are hit or miss though when it comes to quality as they use different brick suppliers for different sets, and it’s not always easy to know what you’re getting beforehand.

When have you last tried? The competition has changed immensely during the last couple of years, and there are brands now that have it dialed in just as well as Lego. I highly recommend checking out Lumibricks or Pantasy, those are best in class at the moment, and actually better than Lego in many ways, imo. Or maybe Cada, if you’re more into the Technic side of things

Unfortunately not. You do get a warning that it’s an unchecked cast at least.

Granted, the issue here is generic type erasure, which was a tradeoff that was decided on for backwards compatibility when generics were first introduced to Java, so it’s not like an actually desirable feature of the language. But the point is that this wouldn’t be reason for anyone to not call Java and Kotlin not statically typed, their type system is just a bit weaker than others in certain aspects

I get your point, but that’s not a great example. Kotlin is a statically typed language, and this compiles (and runs!) just fine:

val test: List<String> = listOf(1) as List<String>
println(test) // prints "[1]"

Even val test: String = 1 as String will compile, but at least gives you an exception at runtime, which the equivalent typescript wouldn’t.
