You never had a job like this I guess. They hire someone with a particular set of skills because it makes some metric somewhere look right, and then they use you for something that uses none of those skills, at all. The weird part is that t

It was about an hour for me, although I admittedly read it while fixing and munching on my lunch. It was very relatable, and so I felt motivated to see the protagonist to the end, whatever their fate- see if they derived alternate insights

You tell yourself it's a well intentioned effort and that it works well, brining in people you otherwise would have missed. And then you later say "mission accomplished," the program ran its course, no longer doing the job it

In the grim darkness of the far future is the heat death of the universe. We are just a candle burning slower than a sun, powered by tidal forces and radiant energy, slowly conspiring to become a star.

Sure, and those chickens exist because we like their meat and eggs. But there's also plenty of life that is simply inconsequential to us.

That's like saying a panda might pose a threat to modern humanity. Like, maybe in some fun horror story, sure, but really they just want to eat bamboo, and occasionally make more pandas; in the world of superintelligent AI, humans are

I have 100% same process, including the adding of comments at the end to tag commands for future fzf searchability (although in practice I find the need for this pretty rare). Of course it does also presume keeping an appropriately long his

I've been playing a city builder game in mixed reality called Spacefolk City recently, and having experienced moving around little interactive pieces in that context, I think they only reason this isn't common is because having mi

Thank you for that context. I had a feeling something like that would be the case. I suppose it would be more correct to be talking about the "idea" of Japan as it is seen by the US. There is probably a similar charm to NYC or Mon

My friends and family like to joke about "anywhere USA." There are places all across the US where the same design language, chain restaurants, etc are all the same. There will be some differences in local business and in political

Oh they have. It's been a big problem for my company. I assume Apple must work on this from their end, but any success would seem to undermine the privacy guarantee of the service. "Bad guys" using Private Relay is one reason

I don't use or actually even like Sublime, but I have the exact same experience of it. Quick loads and lack of "extras" that cause even portions of lag in the experience; there's an immediacy to Sublime. But those things

This one's easy. Because you value your people more than the parties they can throw. The cost/benefit are not just monetary. If they were, the event would have no reason to happen under any circumstance. You fire someone because t

Suddenly I'm connecting the relationship between "budget based economics" and "agile" as commonly implemented. It's trying to fit creativity into a budget. In the places that do it well, it's like "We

I taught at a private school for several years, and what I saw there convinced me that they are up against many of the same things that public schools are except they need a marketing budget and all the parents have financial resources (alt

Very cool interactive, nice work! I think your progression probably works well on desktop, just turn off the "auto scroll to next activity" on mobile devices where it's impossible to see the message without scrolling back up

I really take issue with the position that parents have zero influence. Our children attend a "mediocre" public school in our US city. We simply talk to the teachers and administrators, and you would not believe the results. I alw

I'm going to hazard a guess with zero grounding in data to attempt to answer that, caveat emptor. Please also note that even though these are my guesses, these assertions do not really reflect where I personally land on this. I'm

It's an interesting example, because the fact that it is js makes it trivial for most developers to make modifications to it by opening the Chrome DevTools. Even if you're not a js dev, you probably occasionally write some js. I&#

Typia kinda does this, but currently only has a Typescript -> Typescript compiler.

I agree, but as someone with kids, the problem is that it has to compete with the entire environment. It's not just screens, although that's the biggest distraction factor. There's a million more toys of every variety that ar

Totally sounded like embezzlement to me too. Somebody at Synapse making the records intentionally unreconcilable/vague somewhere in the accounting chain so that they could claim some portion of that as their own. I guess it could be gr

Sadly no. Probably due to embarrassment. I had gone through this effort but didn't manage to ever get more than 4 or 5 people over simultaneously to take advantage of it. Maybe if I had taken pictures and actually shared it around a bi

I did something like this at my last house but somewhat more covertly, with monitors going into storage but having VESA quick mounts hidden near the Ethernet hubs, a few on articulating arms that could pop out near couches etc. My setup onl

From this I learned that, contrary to what I believed, on iOS Safari, websites do boy in fact pause when you change tabs. I was really surprised! Anyway, I used to do a lot of work in this kind of space, and you've encapsulated all the

Ahh, figures. As soon as I said it I thought it likely that Marvel had roped it in at some point. Nothing is safe! Just wait til we get Star-Lord (Guardians of the Galaxy) accidentally facing off against some Jedi just so a writer can make
