I wouldn't go as far as telling something is badly written just because it's written to work on one platform. It can be an exceptional application even when it only works using a single platforms' intrinsics. Similarly a badl

I wonder how that would fare in our climate in finland, where the ground freezes and thaws all the time, breaking just about everything we lay in it, including roads, signs, pipes, foundations...

This is anecdotal of course, but for me cooling with AC is easily over half of energy bills I get.

Cloud pricing for bandwidth is really limiting for a lot of applications. For comparison you can get a 1gbit/s line with your server on OVH EU for about $100/mo, which you could utilize for a theoretical ~321TiB/mo total tran

We already have a lot of excess capacity at night. Slowly charging EVs could even be a net-boon for required peaker plants if people could cover their own needs for the 15% of the day

Covering only 95% cases means you save a lot of money, part of which can be used for those rare events. Does taking a taxi to see a dying relative a couple hundred miles away cost a lot? Sure, but owning a ton of unused capacity for years c

Some parking spaces may be designed for bursting loads, and the wires actually do heat up if used continuously. They may still need upgrades for EVs, but overall should be only a modest cost.

Considering we've switched from overhanging wires to putting our electric infrastructure underground (very, very expensive), I think we can pull off upgrades in parking lots too.

S3 max filesize is 5TB, so with that you'd have to have atleast 8 archive files. You can use byteranges to fetch only a single file out of it if you have the means to determine that range.
