His cheesy joke delivery has gotten fantastic over the years. It was a bit rough in his early videos but it just goes to show how anything can be improved with practice.

A credential becoming less exclusive doesn't necessarily mean the requirements are relaxed. Could mean the requirements stay constant and there are more people shifting their priorities, seeking to obtain it and succeeding. Of course i

The credential's value doesn't go down for the entity seeking someone with the credential. The value only goes down for the person who has the credential IF they were deriving value from the exclusivity of the credential. In other

Not sure if it would be easy to determine the legality, but you might be able to check EULAs and TOS of the services you plan to use to see if they have a clause establishing their ok-ness with false data. Tangent - Sheboygan has excellent

Twitch has been experiencing some feature bloat. The guy who thought of gifting subs should be made a millionaire. The guy who came up with channel points should find other work. The former increases value for both the streamer and Twitch,

I can't imagine what higher ups in Intel are feeling about the current state of things especially since they are spending nearly 10x on R+D as AMD is($1.5b AMD[0] vs $13.1b Intel[1]). Of course AMD doesn't need to spend R+D money

I think those metrics aren't brought up as much in the blogosphere because they are harder to measure. Those metrics will be unique to the context of the app they're measured in. The metrics talked about in the article are ones th

Or just more broadly people trying to market their things as being a higher level than their competitors. This escalates the language used and we end up with things like cupcake wars and every other article claiming someone "slammed&qu

The code itself doesn't have to be good to be a good example. One thing the average tutorial doesn't have is complexity. Picking apart how this code handles complexity could be a good lesson to people who are trying to learn how t

I'm honestly confused how someone could take an article describing an actual issue about specific incidents of some men being sexist against some women and take that as an announcement that being sexist against men is okay. Do you thin

I get that its immeasurably frustrating for a person to be distilled into performance metrics, but how else can we measure one's impact? Using a trust based method where a supervisor leans on their personal biases to determine an emplo

We might just be in a weird transition period where the modern technology us youngins are used to is still a relatively new thing in the long term. The fix might just be to wait until the older people in charge retire or die out and the new

I don't think ignoring the nutters is viable. Enough people are believing anti-vax lies to start bringing back deadly disease which affect more than just themselves. Enough people are believing climate change propaganda which is slowly

I think its a fallacy at this point to assume the people pushing toxic or objectively wrong viewpoints are trolls. If it ever was 100% trolls, that time has passed and their target audience is expanding their work in earnest. We now have pe

I almost don't want to buy property as a protest to the horrible policies we have regarding basic necessities. Why should property owners be entitled to a major portion of my productivity/success? I'll rent the cheapest apart

The barrier to entry for getting licensed to operate a vehicle in the United States is way too low. People don't respect what they are doing when operating a motor vehicle. The deadly issue with driving is that it's just too easy.

I predict in the next year or so a deepfake will go viral and cause significant harm to an important public person. I bet it will come in the form of a supposed candid shot where the person will speak thinking they are not being recorded an

I think it helped me because a structured curriculum with expectations really helps me to actually get the work done. The other big plus was having access to the teacher and the TAs as a resource who I could actually walk over and talk to.

I think the viewpoint that Amazon doesn't care is too cynical. They probably do care but are stuck with the issue of looking at effective counter measures that are too expensive to consider. What is more realistic is that they are just

I wonder if this is an oversight by Amazon on failing to scale its anti-counterfeit measures. Maybe they didn't appropriately evaluate how large the issue would become and they're stuck with trying to amend a system that wasn&#x27
