Several battery factories that were planned in Norway have scaled down their plans or have been cancelled due to the much better incentives in the IRA.

I haven't found any good laptops from Dell, Lenovo or Microsoft that combined the features I want. I want a "desktop-replacement" CPU, good cooling and without GPU. There are quite a few gaming laptops that fit the bill, exce

Very strange. The Norwegian version of AAA just tested lots of different EVs in winter conditions. Most cars lost 10-25%.The link below is in Norwegian, but the results table should be easy to understand: https://www.motor.no&#x2

There are 1 million leisure boats in Norway, with 5,4m inhabitants. So not exactly just for a very, very small minority..

I live in Norway, but I don't have any axe to grind with anyone. I work in the IT industry, but I'm not in the consulting business. As you probably know, Bekk has a very good reputation in Norway, and I know several people who wor

I would think most people on Hackernews are familiar with Typescript, but some of the benefits from the top of my head: - Better tooling - Easier to work with existing javascript code - Superset of javascript - Larger community and ecosyst

I would argue that Typescript and React or Vue would have been a better solution for the customer. Yes, Elm might be better in some aspects, but I could name quite a few benefits for Typescript as well. I think the technical reasoning is ok

With 0.2% of the jobs available in Norway mentioning Elm, and even if some of the companies using Elm might not state it in the job listing, I would say it is a fringe language here. And I'm not debating what's possible technical

I don't agree, but I hope the project is successful in the long run as well! I guess time will tell..

I think there is a clear distinction between languages and frameworks. But again, what are the clear benefits for the customer of choosing Elm compared to the more popular choices in the market, given the (IMO significant) drawbacks of a n

Personally, I would love to spend some time learning Elm. My point is not about Elm itself, but how smart it is to choose Elm for a project in 2019, at least in Norway.

There are 546 developer job listings on finn.no. One of them mention Elm.. Typescript get 39 mentions. C# 118. Java 121. Javascript 131.

I don't doubt that you can learn Elm quickly. But how many good developers want to use what might be an obscure technology in a few years. From the Study of Programming Languages Not to Learn in 2019: "the five languages not to

I wonder how involved the customer was in the choice of technology. I think the long term costs of choosing Elm will be higher than any perceived gain during the initial development period. The number of developers with Elm experience in No

OrientDb is a multimodel db with graph support, so it seems pretty similar.

Or give both Youtube and Google ownership of the affected code, and let them develop separately from the split.

I might have a different perspective since I live in Norway. Amazon is not as dominating here as in the US.

I think the most obvious candidate is to split Google and Youtube.
