Maccaroni and cheese were really meant to be Käsespätzle but for some reason didn’t.

You’re right. It was the eighth movie. My bad. I didn’t even remember Nemesis. It kinda is the Star Trek V but for TNG.

So, is it basically something like overpaneling in PV systems, where the total amount of energy which could theoretic be harvested through the panels (surface area times efficiency) is higher than the maximum possible energy throughout of the inverter? This leads to a steady energy throughout which is capped by the inverter, providing a “buffer” for shaded conditions, morning, evening, etc.

Star Trek 10 - First Contact is also pretty solid.

And then he morbed all over them!

It does that for some decades already. The trick for dual booting was always to install Linux second. :/

Well, as a consolation there is Rottenegg in Germany. Not nearly as catchy though.

Esteemed personages.

You can write selects with many joins, as long they are regular and either add a column or reduce the result set. You have to write the joins explicitly though. Just shoving all of the restrictions into the where clause will definitely confuse everybody.

The trick is to assign someone the responsibility of the upgrade and give them the authority to tell the other developers how their newly added code shall look like. This will get you there eventually.

Seen it work on a >1 million SLOC project.

I’m definitely looking forward to Unpack[…]. This makes kwargs typing manageable for the first time.

The rest is nice too, but no game changers.

When I was thinking about it a bit further, I realized that carbon capture is probably doomed from the start.

Most carbon emissions happen as a side effect for something which generates economic value, and thus the emissions got scaled to the extent we observe today. Everybody wants to make money, or help their community by doing so as so they (necessarily) emit carbon.

What economic incentive can people have to capture carbon? You can’t sell the result, you don’t bring value to your community, you can’t do it as a side effect… so: it won’t scale.

Having a price on carbon seems the right way, but I have the feeling that this won’t bring the extent of scale we would need.

My guess is that carbon removal will be our new normal for decades to come. We will hope to be able to change something with it, with uncertain outcomes.

New money laundering scheme?

This seems to be a thing with Dell. My Dell doesn’t work well together with my (Dell) monitor!

Just rewatched “The Visitor”. Can’t believe I forgot about that one. I’m definitely not crying right now, no no. Thank you.

Well, you can still have the up-to-date plugin, you just have to pay for it now.

Since working with SQLAlchemy a lot (specifically it’s SQL compiler, not it’s ORM), I don’t want to work with SQL any other way. I want to have the possibility to extract column definitions into named variables, reuse queries as columns in other queries, etc. I don’t want to concatenate SQL strings ever again.

Having a DSL or even a full language which compiles to SQL is clearly the superior way to work with SQL.

I’m wondering if a field with more detailed information would be helpful for the users. Moderators might want to clarify or explain in more detail the function or intention behind a tag. This doesn’t seem to be considered in the RFC.
