We have QR codes for installing for example cups printers and way more more things.

I am now using my Flipper Zero for such things including entering passwords at our Dashboards.


I totally agree with every point.

GraphQL can be very powerful, but also very dangerous.


Actually it seems to be 900 detail views. So it is 15 minutes.

Response headers for me:

X-Rate-Limit-Limit: 900 X-Rate-Limit-Remaining: 0 X-Rate-Limit-Reset: 1688318503


Less active users -> lower AWS invoice. Smart move... not.


Why not just pull the same move they did with gcp and simply stop paying?


I have already designed a prototype and I really like it! Well done.


You're quick! That's amazing to hear!


Yes. I did a test last year to check for antibodies generated through the vaccine and antibodies generated through an infection. Vaccine was positive, infection negative.


Is the rest reliable?

“In participants that had COVID-19 and were tested one week after symptoms developed, antibody tests detected only 27% to 41% of infections. In week 2 after first symptoms, 64% to 79% of infections were detected, rising to 78% to 88% in week 3. Tests that specifically detected IgG or IgM antibodies were the most accurate and, when testing people from 21 days after first symptoms, they detected 93% of people with COVID-19. Tests gave false positive results for 1% of those without COVID-19.”

I would use a full stack framework so I do not have the overhead of creating API endpoints.

I would use Laravel with Livewire.


You might also want to check out https://wasp-lang.dev/ - it lets you use React & Node.js (although it seems you prefer php), but you don't have to write API endpoints + everything works out-of-the-box

Thank you for your reply matijash!

I am not tied to a language. wasp looks very cool and will definitely try it out on the next educational day at the office!


nice, thanks for giving it a look! Btw, what is an educational day? You get to spend the day learning something new?


Yes. I did introduce it in my team to check out new technologies and frameworks which may or may not be useful for work.


"If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail."

Frontend frameworks like React are used everywhere. For real web applications like Facebook, they totally make sense. But for a lot of other projects, they don't because those projects do not have a complex UI/UX and so the framework adds more complexity than needed.

I find the mix of your commas and periods in numbers a little confusing.

>305,8 m/s but also 8.7m and ~1.4 hPa.

I know that Europeans have a different notation to Americans, but is there a rule here I am missing?


No, there is no missed rule, the comma is the only official decimal separator in these parts. But I can relate to the the OP. Us here in the comma world are forever converting numbers in CSV and Excel files back and forth so as to display them in a proper number format. It’s like that darned USB port, you have to flip it 3 times to get it right.


This should be the grand compromise.

The US will convert to metric, however everyone else has to convert from commas to decimal points.

Places using decimal separators and the metric system are the real winners here.


I'll celebrate for a whole week whenever the US converts to the metric system. I hope I'll still be young enough to handle it.


Since it's a big "moat" for parts manufacturing (mainly for defense industry)... I predict the USA will give up imperial units when it's empire finally collapses.

Perhaps in the next few decades as China builds its own economic sphere.


Carter started a transition to metric in the 1970s and Reagan killed it. It became a nationalist thing to keep it.


Um, it's unamerican to use "imperial" units. When you have a revolution, you have to get rid of all things imperial!

Therefore US pints are 16oz, not 20oz, and so on for most fluid measures (fluid ounces are based on dry ounces, which are avoirdupois, not imperial).


We kept linear measurements the same (feet, yard, miles). So it's a bit of a stretch to say we're not imperial. I'd say it's "US imperial".


I was about to comment that feet, yards and miles are not imperial measure; but I checked, and WP says they are in fact imperial units. So i learned something today.


Growing up in Switzerland with a dot as the decimal separator, I newer knew just how much of an outlier we are in this part of the world until now.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_separator#/media/File:...

We also use apostrophe as the thousands separator, so: 1'234'567.89 which I personally always found much more readable that using commas and dots. Is there any other country that uses this combination?


No missed rule. Thank you for your feedback. I have replaced the decimal separators '.' with ','. Sorry for the confusion.


While OP here made a mistake, some countries use mixed systems depending on what it is used for . Switzerland for example uses comma for normal numbers and dot for currency alone.

The bad thing isn't that Google wants me to pay for a service.

The bad thing is that some of us have no choice - or need a long day or two to migrate all the stuff.

I am a heavy Google Photos user who has shared a lot of albums. Also a lot of Android payments and much more.

For Google Photos, I can't export and import albums - only photos. So I would have to recreate the structure manually. This alone is a huge task.

If there is a "migrate to Gmail" button all is fine. But there isn't an easy solution.

I am now glad I had to create a private Gmail account for Stadia. But I also have to think about investing more money in games - or not.


The GDPR-compliant export tool they offer should also encode your albums, I don't think it will be easy to port them somewhere else, but it should be possible
