"My German clients I could bill today. But a domestic invoice now would have to be reissued the moment the VAT ID arrives"

Not a good idea... Companies will have to re-enter their VAT reports in previous taxation periods. It will trigger even more hassle an pushback form payers...

While EU is big and welcoming family, nobody wants to deal with non-resident bank accounts and tax liabilities :)

I believe this sort of sums it up: “To begin with, the hint lies in the title of this section: secrets management. Environment variables are hardly managed unless you explicitly use an integration or an orchestrator like Kubernetes to automatically inject environment variable configuration.”

It has nothing to do with environment variables… It is just a ephermal way how to inject variables into the process, if you do it right…

I kind of agree with this conclusion.

Before we know better it can be just that spacetime was expanding at a different rate (we still would need at least one another Planck that operates in roughly same range to confirm this).

Hubble wavelenght range - 0.1 to 0.8 μm Webb wavelenght range - 0.6 to 28.3 μm Planck wavelenght range - 330 to 10000 μm

My understanding is that Planck was observing photons that have happened much more earlier.

Tools are quite exciting.

You start by acquiring of basic hand operated ones, then there is a whole set of tools for construction that you can probably use for garden furniture carpentry, then come the tools that you can use to create furniture proper.

I believe material wise it is a similar journey. From soft construction wood to hardwoods, that require different tools and techniques...

Metal processing is a challenge of it's own. One set of tolling while you do aluminium grade of metals and then tooling becomes more or less cost prohibitive.

Consider the workshop space. It is a lot of tools for this journey...

It is sort of same as software development. You do spend a lot of time to prepare infrastructure to craft repeatable parts that will stick together and align on a certain angle, etc.

The feeling when it works is magical. Fighting your tool to get things done (it is time for upgrade :)) is dreadful...

DrawIO feature to save editable PNGs (embedded diagram source code) is absolutely magical.

The tool is quite basic, until you realize, you can create reusable blocks (in scratchpad) with predifened style.

From that point on you just publish editable PNGs to git and draw them rather quickly by dropping in predefined blocks.

Only downside for Sweden really is that they are now recommended to spend >=2% of GDP for defense.

Otherwise, congratulations. Same as Finland, Sweden is hige NET benefit for alliance, welcome friends!
