This seems like a bad take. Are you going to tell me ibuprofen is worthless because it doesn't fix the underlying issue? No, it's a tool. Nobody is saying you should take casual MDMA to discuss every day solutions. But it does hig

any airport that actually cares will adapt a policy like PDX's street pricing, and then actually furnish the airport with places that exist out in the real world--not just these weird airport-only chains (who tf is wolfgang puck) or on

I suppose it's easier to believe you're a special snowflake than it is to believe you're just average.

Tokyo? Really? Because that city has the same cultural values as San Francisco, so whatever works there would surely work in sf.

by MAGZine 4y ago
This is mostly a cultural thing, isn't it? Isn't that even more difficult to import?

Which city should San Francisco look to to solve all of its problems? Fwiw, "governance" does exactly that. Many states literally copy, or copy-then-tweak California law (e.g. motor vehicle efficiency requirements).

I'm not sure if that's the case or not. In 2017 I could ask Google which episode of the Futurama was the one where the save the planet from a trash ball, and it could answer the question in natural language. I suspect that Google

i think a lot of firms believe they can keep quality (by hiring 'good quality') engineers in india and save money. as anyone who has actually been at a place that tried this knows, it's probably not true. and for the time whe

So in your view, anticheat companies would be better to publish their methods of detecting cheats? cheat detection and cheat development is an arms race. always was, always has been. By publishing, you just give an advantage to the cheaters

You've fundamentally missed the point that I was making in order to take more 'technically correct' potshots. Perhaps you should try to internalize the whole of my comment (i.e. comprehend it) before trying to reply again. Sn

It's not lying, that's how your comment came across to me. It was extremely dismissive. A simple 'but could you provide evidence?' would be fine. But no--it was more akin to "there is no evidence, your argument is i

"there's no evidence to support the things you are saying, but they're wrong." Is it really hard to believe that activities that rely on communication thrive in environments that support high-bandwidth communication? nb:

(not OP). some quick googling reveals lantus is no longer covered by patents. patents in the usa last 20y, and they filed the main patent for that drug in 1994. it looks like they tried to patent some pen injection mechanism as a way to art

i used to use tcpdump all of the of time for local development. with everything moving to https, sometimes even local environments, it's basically been useless now however.

parts of the earth are comparably smoother than a billiard ball (though not all of it). Mountainous terrain is like fine sandpaper. We really do not have a sense of scale to imagine the size of the earth.

you'd rather work harder and for less money than work with people who phone it in? I don't really buy the meritocracy argument that 'good devs get paid more'. It hasn't really panned out in my experience, except for

you do realize that young people overwhelmingly stream, and do not generally purchase vinyl, right? I've heard this idea of streaming being bad for music bandied about, but I don't believe it. streaming solved by piracy problem by

which is to say, in your org, the top performers are not the top paid? not great. sort of sounds like a way to lose your top performers if I'm honest.

or, maybe if a company is scared of losing an employee, they should pay them market value. holding a grudge over them because you trained them and are trying to recoup your costs is idiotic and doesn't work. asking the government to su

i think the point GP is making is that Mass's tech sector might be actively hindered because of non-competes, and that without the universities, who knows if it would exist at all.

I definitely agree with this, but what I have found it useful for is for discovering 'unknown unknowns' that I can then research in more depth. It's too bad that it produces such plausible-sounding answers while being subtly

This is some really nice documentation, and in one spot rather than strewn about. Major props for consolidating the information here! In contrast, Ocarina of Time has been thoroughly torn apart, but the documentation isn't centralized

So, every time that the bus turns onto a non-electrified street, get out of the bus to take the wires off?

by MAGZine 4y ago
few cities have ALL streets electrified. usually just main corridors where buses will operate. These buses usually have some battery, but not a lot, and coming on and off the wires is often a manual procedure.

As opposed to x86 processors which are designed for cisc, but just not to take advantage of it?
