I also thought EVs would be quieter but as they became more common in my street I noticed they’re only a little quieter than internal combustion cars from the moment they reach a certain speed (say 30km/h).
Most of the noise comes from the tire friction and aerodynamics.
Brussels has implemented a 30km/h default speed limit and it works. Our car journeys don’t take more time and it feels way safer to ride our bikes on mixed bike/car lanes
I really want to try fresh together with edgedb. Any chance a builtin authentication will be added soon? Or is there a recipe to implement something like auth0?
I've done exactly the same move 9 months ago. Nokia 3310 and carry an ipad+data if I'm on the move for a few days.
My car has a builtin GPS. Navigation has been an issue only once when joining a friend to a restaurant on foot, believe it or not I asked my way around and found the place.
Showpad is one of the fastest growing SaaS company in Europe. It's located in the really nice city of Gent in Belgium. Great culture, people and top tech. https://www.showpad.com/careers
I might be slightly biased but you should consider it :)
I feel that I get much more connections and information out of small local meetups than big conferences.
In a small local meetup I'll occasionally pop my laptop open and start geeking out on some new tech with another attendee.
Big conferences feel too corporate and impersonal to me.
The ticket price of the biggest conferences is reaching absurd levels too.
I don't know if any amount of data collection and model refinement will allow self driving in ALL situations. We always see self driving demos in California on very large roads, I'd like to see one in a small crowded street of Napoli or on a crossroad in Ho-Chi Minh.
If it's a mystery to solve it makes sense not too include too many details :)
You should just clone the repo. The zip option is always present on github repos.
I can definitely relate to your experience. I've been a C# developer on VS/Windows then moved to Xamarin/iOS dev on a Mac and it was ok but not terrific.
When you think that Microsoft was accused of abusing its monopoly when they shipped IE with Windows. You cannot even install another true browser on iOS, just some sort of chrome around safari/Webkit.
I agree it's not a good comparison. The network on which smartphones plugged in predated them which is not true for the electrics cars and charging stations.
"Electric cars are always full every morning" is only true for people owning a garage.
