  • I recently removed my 25Gbps PCIe dual port cards from my 2 servers because they were using 20W more. My entire rack including 2 UniFi PoE connections uses 90 W now (so 110 W just for having 25 Gpbs).

    There is some heat from such cards, but usually it gets transported outside fine. The ones I bought did not come with a fan. I think you cannot operate them without one. The heat sinks get very hot.

    The message in this comic strip is that if you use advanced tools to produce a good result, you’re doing it right.

    You’re old, if you don’t recognize AI as a great tool to solve some problems. It’s the same kind of old as old people who said “we never used a calculator when I was at school”.




  • Depends what you mean by “it worked”. Of course the kids play too much games and watch too much YouTube. But at least I have kids that are happy and I really have fun with.

    It’s also easier to tell them what I want when I really need them to do something. What I want to avoid is to have kids that don’t have respect towards their parents.

    I guess it’s also my attitude. I really like to come back from work and have fun with my kids and see them happy. I know many parents who rather try to get their kids to sleep as soon as possible to have time for themselves.


  • I decided to go in the other direction. My two boys got their phones at 7 and 8. I put parental controls on it and never allowed them install apps. Most annoying is the extensive use of Youtube so far, but on the other hand both of them are speaking English and have good grades. The usage is limited to 2 hours a day. And at 9pm the phone locks itself.

    However, I talked to them about social media and blocked Whatsapp, Instagram etc. I still need to talk more to them of course, because it’s a risk for adults, too. They are individuals and I respect that they need to have fun after school. And I want them not to be “cool” online, but generally be happy with their lifes.


  • They can have access to everything, if you use GBoard (default Android keyboard app).

    Of course the headline is misleading. AI has always read your messages, if you allowed it. It depends how the AI is used and if it respects your privacy. It is possible and you can enjoy having your messages classified (or tagged) properly, so you know what are ads, which one belong banking, news or things you’re interested in.

    As long as it assists you to do some boring complex tasks, it can be a great help.

    Logseq is great. It’s still in early development. Only sync is not so great. I use Git and wrote two scripts (pull/push) for Android which I start manually. The desktop application is very powerful and extensible. The app only supports the most common features without any plugin support.

    It’s also pretty great if you’re able to code.



  • The point is that if you cannot make money in Germany, you’re dumb. It’s not about gas or energy. It’s cheap as it was earlier but they’re much more taxes.

    The problem is the laziness of the industry and service sector. They haven’t been making progress but stagnated for decades hoping to just make money from status quo. Now they blame everyone but themselves just to distract from their mismanagement.

    But the reality is, when you don’t make money, someone else will do.
