Several battery factories that were planned in Norway have scaled down their plans or have been cancelled due to the much better incentives in the IRA.

Proventus AS | Onsite | Oslo, Norway | Full-time | Full Stack developer (React/.Net Core)

Proventus is the company behind the Headless CMS & E-commerce solution Relatude (https://relatude.com).

Your tasks will include: - Help improve our AI functionality, like semantic search, image manipulation and text analysis.

- Help implementation partners and customers to develop advanced websites and E-commerce solutions using Relatude software.

- Help other departments in Proventus in various .Net and web projects.

- Cooperate closely with the Relatude core team

You need to speak Norwegian and English.

Interested? Feel free to send us an email to: post [at] proventus [dot] no or read more about the position and apply here: https://www.finn.no/job/fulltime/ad.html?finnkode=300743080

I haven't found any good laptops from Dell, Lenovo or Microsoft that combined the features I want. I want a "desktop-replacement" CPU, good cooling and without GPU. There are quite a few gaming laptops that fit the bill, except the unnecessary GPU and high price (and ugly styling).

That includes PHEV. The August record is pure BEV.

There are 1 million leisure boats in Norway, with 5,4m inhabitants. So not exactly just for a very, very small minority..

I live in Norway, but I don't have any axe to grind with anyone. I work in the IT industry, but I'm not in the consulting business. As you probably know, Bekk has a very good reputation in Norway, and I know several people who works there now, or has worked there in the past. I do use Vy trains for my commute, and I'm not super happy with the service, but that's not my motivation for my comments.

It is more a concern regarding how the tax I'm paying is used. I understand that people are happy with Elm today. But how will it be in 5 years? Given the small Elm community, will it still be up to date then? Will it be easy to recruit then?

I know of other publicly funded projects in Norway where they ended up using non-mainstream languages, and where it became a problem in the long-term.

I would think most people on Hackernews are familiar with Typescript, but some of the benefits from the top of my head:

- Better tooling - Easier to work with existing javascript code - Superset of javascript - Larger community and ecosystem - More developers are familiar with it - Easy Server Side Rendering

I would argue that Typescript and React or Vue would have been a better solution for the customer. Yes, Elm might be better in some aspects, but I could name quite a few benefits for Typescript as well.

I think the technical reasoning is okayish, but from a business perspective I don't think the customer made a good choice.
