@yosh You can use Standard Gauge all the way from Copenhagen <-> Barcelona since the AVE uses it and they have a service Barcelona <-> Lyon.

Currently you will have to change 3 times, eg. in Hamburg, Karlsruhe and Paris

@yosh There is a larger issue that the wagons have to be certified in each country and the same with the driver and rest of the personal of the train.

The Vectron (Litra EB) trains used by DSB can do both the Danish and the German electricity which they use when they run to Germany (they are currently pulling/pushing the IC1 trains from Copenhagen to Hamburg)

I can finally reveal some research I've been involved with over the past year or so.

We (@redford, @mrtick and I) have reverse engineered the PLC code of NEWAG Impuls EMUs. These trains were locking up for arbitrary reasons after being serviced at third-party workshops. The manufacturer argued that this was because of malpractice by these workshops, and that they should be serviced by them instead of third parti
es.

@jer I used that for quite a while sometime last year and things like Discord would just fail in odd ways which was rather annoying.

@aburka @Mara @zuurr My guess is that it assumes both sides of the ternary operator has the same type and -1 in unsigned gets turned into the largest value in a llu which is surely not less than 0 (as in no unsigned values can be less than zero so it is probably safe to assume that always)

@cadey That means that there will always be a pointer between two non-equal pointers!

What is this? This is a GPS receiver made by Trimble, one of the biggest GPS companies. Why is it shaped like an ambulance? Good question. This is a 6 channel GPS receiver from 1993, which was relatively early for consumer GPS tech. On the back is a Motorola 68HC000 and 64k of RAM. Look it even has a little red light on top. And a silk screened steering wheel.

@charlotte My old work laptop would fail to start up the wifi card if it was connected to power during boot, but that may have been a Linux issue more than a firmware issue.

@noracodes Crosses fingers for tail recursion landing in Rust.

A optimizer friendly language I would put on there would probably be SML, which have had a lot of interesting optimizations done on it for example the precursor to the Rust memory system, MLKit was implemented in it.
On the other hand I think this and Futhark might be optimizer friendly because they both are functional languages. I don't know of a functional language I would think of as control-friendly.

@Ruth_Mottram @yosh A quick pull from DST shows that it is a bit more, but not by much.

@yosh @Ruth_Mottram Now I have only lived on Østerbro, but by far most parking spots there are under zone pay. I can't say I have parked much in central Copenhagen, but I did not feel like free parking spots were abundant.
And its the same at the university, or in the Fælled park.
I knew of a few small places nearby outside of pay zones, but most were not.

@yosh I have an email public on my blog and I got no spam on it before it ended up on the front page of Hackernews which I found pretty fun. I have still have not received a real mail on it.

@yosh @Ruth_Mottram This kind of reasoning is how the new property price assessment have gone completely mad. Their way of reasoning is that any property should be priced after the most efficient way to use it. That is not a great way price properties in general.

These parking lots going to 100s of kr. are not for general parking. In Copenhagen parking in general is much more expensive getting up to around that per day which is more reasonably priced for that kind of prime real estate parking. (and that is with a period card which is the least expensive way)

That said it is still free for electrical (and Hydrogen) cars, which is just a decision by the city.
