Polylactic acid is made via condensation of lactic acid, which can be made entirely from corn. It’s still plastic, but just made from renewable sources. It’s pretty recyclable and can be industrially composted, but in normal conditions it lasts as long as any other plastic.
json doesn’t have ints, it has Numbers, which are ieee754 floats. if you want to precisely store the full range of a 64 bit int (anything larger than 2^53 -1) then string is indeed the correct type
Ikea smart devices are all zigbee so far, which is great since you can just plug it in to home assistant and it does respect your privacy.
Plugs like this are also a lot more useful than just saying total power consumption or whatever. I have a few similar for automating not smart devices. Things like a proper notification when my kettle or rice cooker is done, notification when humidifier is empty, etc. You get the functionality of a smart device but it’s as cheap/robust as the original version, and privacy respecting/more secure since it can’t be connected to the internet
Why would I need to remember an ip address if I have a hostname? I don’t know my ipv4 anywhere since it’s all dynamic.
Standards like those change just fine. Sure some stuff uses ascii still, but almost everything I encounter is unicode. Email has had so many things added on over the years that that’s not a fair comparison either. Other countries have plenty of kb layouts that are more popular locally than qwerty but came afterwards.
At some point ipv6 will be the default and we’ll just use compatibility layers to access ipv4 only things. We don’t need every device on board, just the ISPs
the problem is there are a ton of varieties of tofu, and they’re all generally around the same price. it seems the silken tofu have around 5g of protein, but some of the extra firm varieties have over 15g protein per 100 tofu, putting it in a much more respectable spot in the bottom middle with the grains and such
idk, I’m 6’6 and I despise having to drive full size pickups and SUVs. they’re made for short people to feel tall. A decent proportion I can’t even see street lights in lol.
The cars that have been good for me have been weird, like my s10 fits me better than any full size truck, outbacks and other cuv aren’t bad either, especially newer ones. I’ve heard there are sedans that are better fit for taller/bigger people, but I haven’t looked much there
