My quest 2 was like 299 and weighs 1lb and doesn't require a computer at all. The workouts especially HIIT and Boxing routines are more engaging to me in VR with my limited on hand equipment and I don't like being in a gym with ot

I do a 30-40 minute HIIT or Boxing Routine 2-3 times a week in my quest 2. I keep meaning to get the silicone cover but it hasn't stopped me. The real issue is the foam does get sweaty and if I stop working out then decide I want to pl

Yeah but if malicious intent is a concern you can just spin up a sandboxed instance to run the code to check first. Really the thing is there's not way to ascribe correctness to a piece of code right, like humans fail at this even. The

In any training with code I've done, we've written a parser that validates against tree sitter grammars to make sure it's at least syntactically valid against some known subset of languages we're training on.

Yikes, please tell me they were hired as a junior? Obviously in your case some trivial SQL would have sufficed, which I feel like should have been caught in an interview but could be excused for a junior eng. Also Pandas is not an amazing c

2.4million is pretty easy to retire on (stock is expected to appreciate as well to account for taxes etc). I could retire at something like 1.8m to be honest. My current style of living costs about 50k a year. Throw that into index funds li

Yes, hope and purpose are important. I like existentialism and cling hard to thought of being able to define that belief system myself and what purpose I have from it. That said as of late, after years I seem to be going through a bit of a

Honestly, and completely anecdotally, having been raised Catholic I would expect it to result in quite the opposite when so much of the doctrine is based on guilt. That said before anyone jumps on me, also anecdotally, I haven't found

As an alternative place workers on the board. Have them be elected by the workers. A lot of places in Europe apparently do this. There's your non union workers representation and brings parity to negotiating power as well.

Suggesting that App distribution is even part of the consideration for why Linux didn’t catch on is kind of hilarious to be honest. Their app distribution methods being good or not had nothing to do with their lack of adoption and it’s kind
