Hi tosmatos, Please have a look at PACE soldering/desoldering videos on youtube. They are dated but very good in general. You don't need a lot of videos, just the basics. https://paceworldwide.com/video/basic-

Is OpenAI hiring for this position? I think it is a pretty creative job to come up with these scenarios and then pass them off as accidents/mistakes. Would love to be part of the team that says "As part of the upcoming GPT rollout

We've already forgotten the hype train that Netflix orchestrated when they held a paid contest for who can build the best recommendation engine. What was it - a million dollar prize? It was shit back then, and it is still shit today. I

A lot of us moved over to lobste.rs and it's been refreshing, to say the least.

HN is about to witness the exodus/migration we've seen in prior years, except this time it will be a much larger movement rather than focused/specific top contributors who just said "fuck it" and had enough with thi

DO burned me recently due to their unwillingness to handle DDOS attacks: "The best we can do is change your IP." Thanks guys. Switched to OVH immediately.

But you still have the downvotes and the flagging in case you fall out of line. Oh, and the "You're posting too fast, please slow down."

Unfathomably based. Are any of the binders for sale?
