This can be resolved by building the data centers to cold countries like here in Finland. Servers are very good at converting electricity to heat, and the heat can be used to heat homes.

Microsoft Azure data center in Espoo is going to heat up 60% of the city's district heating network.

Also the electricity here in Finland is one of the cleanest, like in all Nordics (hydro, wind, nuclear)

I think in Europe we fill the same spot with kebab and döner restaurants as Americans do with Mexican restaurants.

Well, Trump is convicted felon, and Harris is prosecutor. Criminals are afraid of the law.

I really don't mind that they hide the button to enable installs from .APK when they are being directly downloaded. It has been in my opinion very bad idea from the beginning that it shows that, it has enabled multiple malwares in android. Non-technical people should not have easy way to install things, even with big warnings, because people ignore warnings.

If google removes the ability to install non-store apps all together, then that day I will stop using Android.

Business & Industry uses over 75% of electricity in Ireland. Residential energy usage really is not that much, in any country in the world.

Same with CO2, almost all of it is created by industries.

Or it means that the opposite is on Russia payroll. Also both can be true at the same time.

Strange, I would say that experienced data engineer would get hired here very quickly. My team was searching one senior and one junior data engineer 6 months ago, and got 0 applications for senior role. Junior we took directly from school desk.

I know that searching for job is quite painful, but that is quite global. Good luck.

You might need to wait for a second it to load, seems that they have coded it bit poorly that it shows that while it loads the results.

Our population is at aging point were the large age groups are going to retire. If you can hold a wrench or use a computer, there is a work for you here.

Pay is of course 1/2 or 1/3 what it is in US, but because healthcare and education is totally free, it is pretty much the same.

Easiest way is to find a company that hires you first, because they can apply you for a working visa.

Here is a government site that list available jobs for foreigners: https://www.workinfinland.com/en/

There are open jobs like for chefs, electricians, nurses, coders, Santa's Elf (really, look it up) etc

It is correct, sow-na might be hard because not sure do people know how to pronounce sow (female pig) correctly :). Other maybe better example is of "sour" without the r, and adding "na" on the end.

Come to Finland, we are the happiest country, and we need more people.

Summer is full of mosquitoes and in winter you don't see sun at all.

Language is hard but English is well spoken. This adds complexity to getting citizenship, but you can get permanent residency by working here for five years, unless our xenophobic party doesn't increase that to eight years.

We are quiet people unless we are drunk.

Password in the border is pronouncing Sauna correctly (sau - na, not like soona, unless you are from Savo, where it is pronounced saana).

Edit: Here is a government site that lists jobs that you can apply as foreigners and move here with visa: https://www.workinfinland.com/en/

CrowdStrike Falcon is XDR product, there is hundreds of similar products available.

The role of XDR is to detect and block if some bad actor is trying to do something malicious in the machine. Old school virus signature detection is not enough anymore, you need pattern detection from network communication/DNS queries etc.

When corporation has thousands of devices to monitor the OS each of those devices Is not relevant. You need to detect if some random user logs to some Linux info display thousand kilometers away, and starts scanning the network.

Because the detection and response, needs to happen near realtime, for example Incase of cryptolockers, where all devices are encrypted within seconds, the software blocking this needs kernel level access.

I work in critical infrastructure as IT, but luckily we did not use falcon
