English is not my first language. I didn't know what gimp meant, or that it even meant something. Never gave a thought about it before. TIL what it means. Expanded my vocabulary. Thanks buddy! I can now never not think about it wheneve

The first couple of days can be weird, but then you'll get adjusted to it.

Over here in Asia there's no distinction between caffeinated coffee and decaf. Even though coffee is something that naturally grows over here. Despite that, people just but coffee powder off the shelf and use that. There's no spec

TIL. Thanks! You should look up what "git" means in English :)

Probably not very often. Next time you're flying across the pond, try coding (without bothering to subscribe to onboard wifi). Also, it can be useful in places where steady internet is sketchy, which is a lot of places. The folks at 10

Have you tried AMD? I don't know if they're suitable for your work, but I personally think AMD is great. Works well with Linux. They're definitely more open than Intel. And I felt (perhaps incorrectly) that you get more horse

For math, when I was in school I tried memorizing all the formulae, and well, my life was miserable. I hated it. Recently just for fun (I have a job that (perhaps unfortunately) does not require any advanced math), I started taking math MOO

For academic purposes (in grad-school as part of my networks class), I have used T-Shark before to monitor packets. (Shameless self-promotion) I had written a blog post about it back then. Here goes [1] [1] https://arjkb.gitlab.i

I don't share account. However, I do have multiple internet connections, and frequently switch connections (all with different IPs). Therefore, I have a feeling it'll eventually determine I'm logging in from multiple househol

Yes. I know for a fact that diesel locomotives of trains are kept running even if its next trip is hours later. I don't know the underlying reason for that though. I always assumed it was some combination of using too much fuel for sta

Sure I agree electric engines produce even more torque. Just give it a few years for the whole thing to be economically viable and for them to convert their diesel trucks to EV trucks.

by 2143 5y ago
The reason for diesels on commercial vehicles is the massive amount of torque they produce low down the rev range. Useful for pulling heavy loads. I think the newer ones with the AdBlue tech prevents the soot from getting out.

I think it's more of a psychological thing for me. If I were to get my income every day, that would be very boring. On the other hand if I were to get my income once in 6 months, that would be horrifying. But 1 month seems to be a swee

I think humans are fundamentally biased a little bit. And it's probably a good idea if we collectively work towards eventually eliminating those biases.

Yep. Just like how you'd kick out poor souls from Australia and New Zealand if zombies invade those countries and they come crying for help.

I think this might actually have nothing to do with Millennial or GenZ or whatever. I mean, the author has just a single data point. The author's friend might just happened to have liked that particular design, and it might not be true
