Programmers fallacies about postcodes:
- A postcode covers a small geographic area
- A postcode is good enough to locate an end user for generating location suggestions
- A postcode will be in a single timezone
- A postcode only has a single state
- A postcode has no exclaves/enclaves
I would like you to meet 0872. Australia's largest postcode (I think), covers 3 states, has two cut outs (Warbuton and Alice Springs), and even still some mail outside of this area is routed via 0872
Emissions from computing are apparently higher than for air travel, and that’ll only go up in the coming decades.
“As a society we need to start treating computational resources as finite and precious, to be utilised only when necessary, and as effectively as possible. We need frugal computing: achieving our aims with less energy and material.”
Frugal Computing -- On the need for low-carbon and sustainable computing and the path towards zero-carbon computing
The current emissions from computing are almost 4% of the world total. This is already more than emissions from the airline industry and are projected to rise steeply over the next two decades.arXiv.org
One of the tricky things about being a solo indie is taking the time to properly rest after long development cycles. When I stop working all work stops so it can be difficult to justify the time. Though I've gotten better at forcing myself to over the years. This year's summer was particularly challenging.
I just got back from a few days hiking in the hills and as I so often find, you don't realize how much you need a break until you take one.
Now comes the fun of working out what comes next.
