A proper (CNC) milling machine and lathe, like ones you can work hardened steel with. Lots of better things you could buy for that money, but with a mill and lathe i could make those things for even more money!
Edit: oh and a proper garage/hobby room to put them in
Buddy Guy. the concert was pretty posh (think bankers in suits), with everyone having arranged seating, audience sitting still and quiet like at a classical music concert.
he was like ‘fuck this, this isn’t a proper concert, my guitar is wireless, let’s stand up, go to the entry hall and jam’. so he’s just standing in the middle of the crowd and going nuts, at like 83 years of age. That was amazing.
i have a venta lw45. same principle, but instead of a wick, it has these rotating disks that the water sticks to (with a little soap in the water). Works incredibly well, still uses next to no energy (<8W) and the disks are super easy to clean. It’s a beast, goes through 9 liters of water in a bit over a day. All the parts are easily accessible for maintenance and there’s replacement parts if anything ever were to break (though i havent needed those yet).
the disks are especially nice when you have hard water, the calcium can be a pain to remove from a wick, but you can put the venta plastic disks (and lower housing, if you can fit it) in the dishwasher to get them good as new. And calcium does not stick to them weld, so a quick rinse under a strong showerhead is usually enough to clean the disks. Definitely one of the best appliance purchases i ever made.
Viel Diskussionen um das Thema im Moment in der Politik. Natürlich schön, nach dem das Armeebudget erhöht wurde, ohne dass die Armee überhaupt weiss, was mit dem Geld machen.
Hoffentlich wie in den letzten paar Malen wird das an der Urne abgelehnt, weil Leute erstaunlicherweise keine Freude haben, wenn Sozialbeiträge gestrichen werden.
https://www.republik.ch/2025/02/03/die-verborgenen-milliarden-der-schweiz ist auch ein guter Artikel zu dem Thema
Für Navi funktioniert das super. Das einzige, für das ich noch keine gute Alternative gefunden hab (wie im Artikel erwähnt), ist Restaurants in der nähe zu finden, mit Bewertungen, Fotos, Öffnungszeiten. Vor allem beim reisen. In OSM/OrganicMaps findet man da vieles nicht, und wenn dann nur Name/Adresse.
Falls da wer ne gute Alternative kennt wär das super.
It’s not just the use itself, but also how irresponsibly it is produced. Exposing pregnant workers to high levels, dumping it in community water supplies, on farmland etc.
Also the EU did ban them last september (effective in 2026) for essentially all of the uses you outlined, most of which I dont think are such a big deal and just minor inconveniences. It’s not like the 60s were terrible in terms of living conditions.
We also used to use asbestos for a lot of the uses you outlined and we got rid of that without too much inconvenience, but you could have made similar arguments about it back then.
And any reduction is a good thing, it’s not an all or nothing thing. DDT was banned, but can and is still used where there’s no better alternative. And just categorically saying any alternative must be just as bad is just a non-sequitur, there’s no reason that should be true. Cookware is a good example, cast iron works just as well, is not as bad, the only downside compared to teflon is weight. But it’s not like sending us back to the stone age or anything…
Also useful in this regard, python comes with a sìmple file server built in, python -m http.server --directory /dir/ would serve /dir/ on port 8000.
Nur, dass die Arschlöcher das ab und zu in Menschenmengen/zu anderen Leuten schiessen. Das würde ich dann nicht selbstverschuldet nennen.
not sure i agree with that. I mean ok, i recently had three interviews for a company where each interviewer asked me almost the same questions. That was clearly a waste.
At my place, we do a 30min introductory call with the boss first, to quickly weed out unfit candidates and not waste employee and interviewee time with interviews. if that’s ok, then there’s three interviews of 45-60 minutes, one with the product owner that focuses on soft skills and team fit, one with the team your applying to and one with the other team (like frontend or backend) with more technical things, and also just if you’d like to work with this person.
no amount of interviewing will ever guarantee that things work out and unfit people can slip through cracks. And i hate wasting time in tons of interviews. But i’d also not want to work at a place where i know my coworkers were hired after just 1 hour quick chatting. That so little time to get an idea of a person, to spot any red flags. Heck, the ‘tell me a bit about yourself’ section of an interview is already 15 minutes and not usually very helpful.
What sucks the most about rust is that 90% of rust jobs are some crypto bullshit. I love the language, but finding normal jobs is near impossible.
At the same time, i could find 20 Go positions but Go just isn’t exciting. It’s the new java imo, working with it probably good for job security, but i just don’t see myself working in Go in the future as a main language.
NG+, take away their money and have them start over again, but without help from their rich parents or with the odds stacked against them somehow.
That part of the ocean circulation is on track to stop in the next 50 years anyways, so might as well get a chile bridge out of it?
In der Schweiz ist so gut wie alles bargeldlos mittlerweile. Berghütte auf 3000m, Bauernhof Selbstbedienungsladen, die eine kleine Tierpension usw.
Auf dem Weihnachtsmarkt hatten die Glühweinstände sogar schon grosse “kein Bargeld” Schilder. Immerhin kann man sonst an den meisten Orten noch bar zahlen.
Why not link to the original?
You misunderstand, the first two commands are just one time setup to install a specific python version and then to create an env using that version. After that all you need is `pyenv activate myenv´ to drop you into that env, which will use the correct python version and make sure everything is isolated from other environments you might have.
You can also just create an env with the system python version, but the question was specifically about managing multiple versions of python side by side and this makes that super easy.
You could also combine it with direnv to automatically drop you into the correct environment based on the folder you are in, so you don’t have to type anything after the initial setup.
pyenv and pyenv-virtualenv together solves this for me. Virtualenv with specific python versions that work together well with other tools like pip or poetry.
It boils down to something like
$ pyenv install 3.12.7
$ pyenv virtualenv 3.12.7 myenv
$ pyenv activate myenv
and at that point you can do regular python stuff like pip installing etc.
You could give helix a try, feature/functionality wise it’s almost vim, but with 0 config needed and all commands easily discoverable which is closer to nano.
As someone who really tried to get into modal editors, both emacs and vim, for years, it was the first one where i was reasonably fast after a short time and it was easy to discover the keybindings.
And keep the old pieces, in the end assemble them back together and see what the differences are
‘Programming from the ground up’ the main idea of this one is to teach programming in a bottom up way, so very low level.
it’s mostly about teaching (linux) assembly to beginners, so in a way it is just learning a new language. But it’s mainly about understanding low level how a computer works, like registers, kernel calls, how function calls are handled, all for beginners. It’s really easy to pick up.
Knowing those fundamentals can go a long way in understanding other computing concepts.
Others that come to mind are :
Ist natürlich auch blöd, wenn dann die hauptsächlich aus Rentnern bestehende Gemeindeversammlung entscheidet, den Steuerfuss zu senken und gleichzeitig an der gleichen Versammlung Millionen für Rollstuhlgerechte Fahrstühle ausgibt, wie hier vor ein paar Monaten.
Also die Fahrstühle sind ne gute Sache aber dann noch Steuerfuss senken, sich gegen bezahlbare Wohnungen aussprechen (man hat ja sein Haus) und bei Schulen Container oder die billigste Offerte für hässliche Betonklotzschulen ohne richtigen Pausenplatz annehmen usw.
Wär natürlich nett, wenn mehr jüngere Leute an der Gemeindeversammlung wären, aber Dienstags von 19-23Uhr Zeit machen mit Job und Kindern ist deutlich schwieriger als als Rentner.
