You could swap UK with Sweden and your comment would be just as relevant.
Ok, it's a bit of harsh when applied to us, I'm not sure if we are choked out, but the energy crisis is real and high-energy industries are halting and forced to stop their expansion or even shrink their operations.
Another aspect is that energy and gas went from being affordable to a luxury, that's right, a growing chunk of swedes will have to cut back on their use of electricity (how would that even work). The prices on electricity have gone up 400% in ONE year, gas prices have gone up about 200%. Wages have halted since forever if you account for inflation.
I'm realizing the terrifying pace of this just now when writing it out, it's just unfolding in front of our eyes, we are in for one hell of a ride..
This is so true, my parents have an induction stove with touch controls. It takes ONE drop of water on the 10x40cm touch control square to make the whole stove top shut down with a beeping alarm sound. If you have buttery fingers it won't recognize any touches (major annoyance when making butter heavy sauces).
On top of that it also relies on long-presses, you have to hold your finger on the "button zones" for 2 seconds, then you can alter the heat, one touch at a time on a 1-10 scale. Takes about 10-20 seconds to adjust the heat.
When I looked for a new stove last year I tried to find one with induction AND knobs. I ended up getting a non-induction stove, with knobs, works well enough although I would swap it for one with induction and knobs any day, haha!
I'm from Sweden, having a young baby sleep the night in a separate room is almost unheard of over here! How do you handle the first time with multiple nightly feedings?
We have 3 kids, we've had our babies between us in our bed for the first two weeks or so, thereafter a bedside crib for about 3 months until they've outgrown it, then switched over to a separate IKEA crib, still in our bedroom. We've then moved them over to their own bedrooms somewhere around their first birthday.
That's not the case for all babies, imho they come with different habits right from the start. I have ~10 kids in my closest family, all with different sleeping habits.
My kids play with this casually now and then (both <4yrs). My 3yo practice reading the instructions which is a intuitive way for us to explore letters/text (mainly "time" and "pixelate" but in Swedish). They love stopping time, enabling pixelate and draw their names. Really love the android app, I even unlocked all the settings :)
That's funny, because when viewing those numbers from a Swedish perspective they're not that controversive or high. I would go so far and say that they're below medium, some of them reaching low. I would get to keep so much more of my salary in Finland, since my income tax is at around 40% here in Sweden. Add to that all the other kreeping taxes added over time.
I created this library first and foremost because I couldn't find a simple arbitrary matrix math implementation for Android to use in a work related project (well, one fitting my requirements). I kind of drifted along and expanded the library to support all numeric types in Kotlin - it's quite simple to extend the supported matrix operations to whatever functionality in Eigen one wants :)
I'm still learning C++, so comments on the .cpp stuff are appreciated.
