I had quite a few cables with a yellow crimp "jackets" just behind the RJ45. IIRC they came with DSL modems / routers

You have to put them in pairing mode first: For airpod pros: Open the lid, keep the earbuds in the case, double tap your finger on the case just below the green led, The led should start to flash white and the airpods now appear in the devi

I have it the opposite way. Moving my right hand from the keyboard to the mouse doesn’t save me time - so as with most things: YMMV

Not sure what you mean by cryptographic strength - they are both Unique ID generators, not meant for anything related to cryptography. UUIDv7 has 62 bits of random data, ULID uses 80 bits, so if anything ULID is "stronger" (meanin

I stumbled over your string art turtle some time ago and like one of the commenters on [1], I was wondering about your tool to create points from a image [1] https://turtletoy.net/turtle/dd4c8beb92

Different countries have different laws regarding what falls under freedom of speech. The CDN providers say they take a net-neutrality stance. If a court order from a specific country tells them to block certain sites, I'm pretty sure

You are missing the point. Blocking a CDN providers IP range, means blocking all the websites using the CDN - not just the nazi-poster.com.

I've heard that a major hurdle for these "cell-factories", is moving from lab to industrial scale. Ofc initial cost of the product is typically also a lot higher, but that is the same of any product addressing externalities o

Thanks, I see your point. Was not trying to be snarky/funny, but rather come with counter example to parent. I was thinking about the (recent) "Era of globalization" - but perhaps that is too short of a time span to be called

You must have some other sources than that site. Downloaded the CSV, and at the risk of misinterpreting the columns here is some simple filtering: % of total energy generation EU Coal 9.64% US Coal 14.88% CH Coal 57.77% EU

I was thinking about basic tool use. I expect a junior engineer candidate to wield a computer way better than my mom. They are applying for a junior engineer position not and apprenticeship starting with close to zero training. I have no pr

Some points in parent comment are absolutely valid IMO. Would you hire a carpenter who walks back and forth to his toolbox to pickup at single nail at a time and then use the hammer with both hands near the head. And when cutting a 4x4 beam

That was the extreme case - the multi-scan would be gotten if a casual reader tried your (neat by all means) AND-only query on a non-indexed table (or partially indexed for that matter).

It's a big help if you know how to retrieve and interpret execution plans for the database you use.
