I have no experience with that. I am connected to a virtual desktop right now that is in my employer's datacenter. I am at home on my personal desktop. On my company virtual desktop I am running Zoom and am on a conference call with 11

I now have to effectively maintain two machines In a VDI infrastructure, your physical desktop should be either literally or effectively a dump terminal that gives you access to your virtual desktop. Why would you be using both? The serv

I don’t notice any. I also don’t use RDP - for Amazon Workspaces I use their app that utilizes the PCoIP protocol. Other than that my last job was working at one of the largest banks in the United States. We were 100% virtual desktop since

To me VDI is the way to go. I want my development machine to be in the cloud and always running. I want a lightweight notebook that only takes into consideration screen, keyboard and battery that I can connect to my virtual desktop from any

That “crypto bashing comment chain” is just as relevant today as it was when it was posted 16 months ago. People are still struggling to articulate a legitimate use case for cryptocurrencies. I made some money mining BTC way back in the day

I am the exact opposite. I type 150+ WPM and can’t write to save my life. Writing things down with pen/paper does nothing for me.

I understand what you’re saying. What I don’t understand though is OP said that two years of charges were charged back. My understanding is that is not possible.

My initial reaction was incredulity against Upwork because this story as described doesn’t seem to make sense. You reminded me though that freelancer sites are one of the easiest ways to turn stolen credit cards into cash. It does sound lik

Chargeback periods are typically limited to 120 days. This means a cardholder cannot generally dispute charges older than about 4 months. https://chargebacks911.com/chargeback-time-limit/ There can be exceptions to thi

Spot on. In 2013 after a highish triglyceride test result I quit obvious refined sugar. (Have to specify exactly what I mean or I get a lot of questions like “what about bread?!!? You know there’s sugar in bread right!?!?”) I framed it as,

Thank you for the interesting perspective! You and I sound fairly similar in terms of symptoms. For the anxiety I went with a book that someone recommended to me on HN called, "Learned Optimism". I went from having moderate to sev

Doing well at work is not an indication that you don’t have ADHD. Of course it is. Maybe if you changed "indication" to "guarantee" I would agree with you but as it is that sentence is objectively wrong. And of course

For me it was when my daughter wanted to watch Friends but Netflix lost their license to display it and there was a point in time where you literally couldn't watch it anywhere. Yeah I don't have a right to watch Friends but that

Just want to point out - one can have symptoms of a disorder that don't rise to the level of a disorder. I have what OP describes like crazy, I beat myself up over it frequently and think I need to do better. Yet somehow I keep getting

I think you may have missed the part in my original comment where I said He even says that it was bad for both sides! . Respectfully, my point was that the way the author (you?) left that company reads like it was a train wreck. To a level

I don’t think it’s good advice even for someone working in a rational environment. The part about giving ten months notice is terrible. He even says that it was bad for both sides! He was mentally checked out for months and not coming up wi

I type ~80WPM with 90%+ accuracy, but I don't find that typing speed is my blocker, rather the speed of a coherent thought I’m on typeracer.com with an average typing speed of 154 WPM with 99% accuracy. I don’t find my thoughts to be

Not a bad theory but the very first thing I did was enter "look" and it did say there was a longsword on the ground and a bow on the table. Here is the entire unedited transcript: "Good luck, my friend!" the man says. Yo

Thanks for the link to that! I tried it out just now and I have to say that I am not impressed. What will you do? You get longsword from the ground. You get your longsword from the ground. You hold it in your hands and examine it for a

The value is in possessing a scarce and "authorized" representation of a popular thing. The use of the word "authorized" seems artificial in this context. I agree with you on scarcity and popularity being a requirement
