Makes total sense to me

This argument is extremely disingenuous. The Republicans claim that a president has immunity unless investigated and impeached by Congress. And this is exactly what they are fruitlessly flailing around, trying to do. So this is not the gotcha the meme claims it is.

Seemingly one of the contributors has visited a disputed region and logged into GitHub from there. By law (export controls) Microsoft must not provide service to that place. So some automatism flagged the account and also the organic maps repo. So far so normal. But either Microsoft dragged it's feet in communicating and resolving the issue or the organic maps team was not doing their part in the process. Doesn't matter, the outcome is still worth it.

Mein alter Arbeitsplatz schickte mir ein Gehalt für einen Monat, in dem ich nicht gearbeitet habe

Zusätzlich zu den anderen Kommentaren: Geld nicht ausgeben. Der Arbeitgeber kann und darf es zurückfordern. Um späteren Ärger zu vermeiden, würde ich ihn an deiner Stelle einmal schriftlich darauf hinweisen, in einer Form, die du später beweisen kannst. In der Nachricht um eine abschließende Abrechnung bitten, da du vermutest, dir aber nicht sicher bist, ob hier ein Fehler unterlaufen ist. Kann ja sein, dass das Geld dir zusteht wegen einer Korrektur aus einem Vormonat. Ich würde also nicht einfach zurücküberweisen sondern den alten Arbeitgeber nachweisen lassen, dass du zu viel erhalten hast.

Makes sense. You don't want Addons to navigate to the addons page and install other addons. You also don't want to give them access to the firefox sync data through your account to do the same from that end.

Small modular nuclear reactors get a reality check in new report

Reply in thread

Extremely cheap per kilowatt? Every statistic out there that I've seen and that includes government funding, as well as construction and deconstruction costs, paints a different picture. Nuclear is only competitive with coal or the relatively underdeveloped solar thermal.

In 2017 the US EIA published figures for the average levelized costs per unit of output (LCOE) for generating technologies to be brought online in 2022, as modelled for its Annual Energy Outlook. These show: advanced nuclear, 9.9 ¢/kWh; natural gas, 5.7-10.9 ¢/kWh (depending on technology); and coal with 90% carbon sequestration, 12.3 ¢/kWh (rising to 14 ¢/kWh at 30%). Among the non-dispatchable technologies, LCOE estimates vary widely: wind onshore, 5.2 ¢/kWh; solar PV, 6.7 ¢/kWh; offshore wind, 14.6 ¢/kWh; and solar thermal, 18.4 ¢/kWh.
