My house is operating at around 3,5-4 bar after the pressure regulator. Since I have no gauge I can‘t deliver the pressure of the supply. I guess it is around 6 bar. Small town in Germany.

We also have mandatory check valves since a couple of years to prevent water from entering the supply from the buildings in case the pressure drops.

This reminds me of a colleague who was always ranting that our code was not documented well enough. He did not understand that documenting code in easily understandable sentences for everybody would fill whole books and that a normal person would not be able to keep the code path in his mental stack while reading page after page. Then he wanted at least the shortest possible summary of the code, which of course is the code itself.

The guy basically did not want to read the code to understand the logic behind. When I took an hour and literally read the code for him and explained what I was reading including the well placed comments here and there everything was clear.

AI is like this in my opinion. Some guys waste hours to generate code they can’t debug for days because they don’t understand what they read, while it would take maybe two hours to think and a day to implement and test to get the job done.

I don’t like this trend. It’s like the people that can’t read docs or texts anymore. They need some random person making a 43 minute YouTube video to write code they don’t understand. Taking shortcuts in life usually never goes well in the long run. You have to learn and refine your skills each and every day to be and stay competent.

AI is a tool in our toolbox. You can use it to be more productive. And that’s it.

If the manufacturers would not use the cheapest caps with the least amount of flimsiest material available for this application, they could even be usable…

Being in the same situation in a different country, but a couple of years older: In my experience you never will be fully accepted by everyone. You will be the Polish guy in UK and the British guy in Poland.

You can identify yourself as what you want. You must learn that people have the right to have their own opinion even though it is wrong or opposed to yours. You have to learn not to care and live your life as a nice person. It doesn’t matter at all what others think as long as they don’t hurt you.

You can’t imagine how much I hate this setting. A couple of weeks ago I helped a guy install some specific software on a windows machine provided by the customer. It’s like one exe with a config file. Pretty basic. My instructions were:

1. Copy the exe to a specific path
2. Create a new text file in the same path and copy paste this provided text into the file
3. Rename file to abc.xml

The exe was throwing errors because of the missing config file. Of course the filename was abc.xml.txt 💩

Of course they are pissed. In nature, it is common to see random stuff mixing together to get a cold temperature. Of course you’d define this as 0. Then you define freezing water as 32 and define a random person’s temperature to a even more random 96. Piece of cake.

How are these morons even able to understand that water is freezing approximately at 0c and boiling at 100c. This never happened ever in nature. Why choose something so unimportant to life like water?

Hello! Here is your random engineer: You have to connect both trap doors to the same side of the turbine. Otherwise your generator has a great chance to get blocked by users.

Otherwise the concept looks good. If we find a way to get the Linux guys out and make them able to walk a slight incline without collapsing this should work.

When growing up my Grandparents ordered coal for heating purposes in winter. They had big piles of it when the heating period started. There where huge chunks of maybe 50cm length and 30cm width. I guesstimate the whole pile to be around 10m^3. But keep in mind it’s not the most reliable source since this dates 30+ years back and the dimensions have been seen with a little kids eyes. It may be less.

My house I live in today is 100+ years old. There are still some pieces of coal in my basement.

I just hate myself: I‘m using a Linux Workstation with Job specific Windows VMs. Sometimes I even WOL my Workstation, connect my MacBook via VNC and look up stuff in Windows…

macOS/Linux pretty much feels the same. Windows constantly bothered me with issues…

While everybody hops on the newest trends I just try to understand the technology I am working with right now in Projects. Keeps me from wasting time with buzzwords and trends that are going to be obsolete in a couple of years.

If there is nothing new going on I usually pick a topic that I am interested in, get a good old book and read it. Usually this is knowledge not too related to my everyday work. This helps to have broad technical knowledge. Helps me heavily in my projects and everyday life.

But I have to admit I don’t apply for jobs 😉

If you put it on the top, remove all app icons and add a second bar on the bottom that shows the apps and hides when you open a window in full screen mode, it even gets a macOS feeling out of the box without any addons.

I tried KDE, Gnome, xfce and experimented with tiling window managers. At the end of the day I’m always getting back to cinnamon. It just works for me and I love it 😍

Maybe it’s me but calling it Linux Subsystem for Windows (LSW) would‘ve been more accurate in my opinion.

The good thing is: This type of book is read by parents to their 1-3 year old kids. You show the pictures and can filter weird sentences. This is not a book a 9 year old is going to read 😉

This reminds me of code I’ve written in the past and reviewed years later: At first glance it looks like it is wrong. Especially if magic numbers are involved. Then I start to think about it (hopefully with some hints in the comments 😉) and remember soon that I spent a lot of time thinking about this specific line back then and wrote it fully intentional to limit the effect of variables in my calculations 😁

This is a very underrated comMINT!

Around 2-3 days after exposure at a wedding. The outbreak happened at work (home office). I could feel how my body temperature started to rise and I started feeling bad. Shortly thereafter I had a burning sensation in my lungs and had my first positive test result 🤢

For 2-3 days I felt bad and extremely weak. Then it got gradually better.

I was fully recovered in 6-8 weeks (felt very weak when running in the morning or when doing heavy work). The next 6 months I had a lot of colds which is not normal for me.
