I've been made miserable by tcl for the past year and a half. Even after this long I still have to constantly refer to the manual because of what an inconsistent mess it is. There are people at the office who have been dealing with thi

HN is not special. Every public exposure precedes a bubble, that's how it works, influx of new buyers raises the price.

This would've been so much easier if they just called Perl 6 something else. Would've saved them so much aggravation.

Why waste time, buy a service like codility and only interview the best couple ones. I don't work for any of those online code tests btw, but they're pretty good for sorting applicants and cheaper than your own time. Junior develo

I thought that was strange, glad to see I'm not the only one! And the differences aren't slight for me, crossing the border I seem to revert to the person I used to be 10 years ago when I left. It's strange to talk about but

It's reliable, you just need to use an rf cable.

And it went awfully quiet after the ico. I hate myself for using words like ico in every day speech. This the 80s all over again except with shittier music.

Or you could just use mpv? Is there anything that you find missing in it?

This is pointless, people are not buying VR because there is nothing there they really want to use it for, not because it costs too much. A gaming rig to run it will cost you more.

Yes, I clearly misread that.

You are arguing with me about something that is easy to verify in 10 seconds by looking at the wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11 (it does mention a frequency hopping physical layer but that was part

I don't know what you're thinking of but no, you can't have that because if you had this magical hotspot your network card in your iThing would not know what to do because wifi does not do frequency hopping. Every time your h

by Paul_S 9y ago
That is not possible, it's not part of the spec. Maybe what you're thinking of is the wifi hotspot selecting the channel automatically when setting up a network based on the neighbours it can see. Nothing to do with frequency hopp

"Run of the mill bluetooth headset, mouse, or keyboard" manufactures don't make Bluetooth chips, they buy them. What part of the bt stack do you work on? You're saying nonsensical things, wifi does not do AFH. I didn&#x2

Usually far less than 1 MB. It's about cost, footprint and power consumption.

I think it's a common idea. I thought of it before bitcoin was a thing (public signed transactions) and heard similar ideas many times. Still waiting for a working system because at this point in pretty sure I'll never actually cr

Tangentially related: if selling bombs to our enemy who we are at war with would bring in more money than the cost of rebuilding and insurance claims we would do it. What sounds insane to you is criminal for an executive not to do .

That jeep looks super comfy. Do you have anything for protection (I don't see anything on the list)?

Do you have a family? (if not: would you like to start one?)

I have mastered annual 2 week travel instead. Much harder. Not joking. You have to plan well, you don't have the luxury of slipping dates, you want to optimise dead-time, compromise between time and cost, synchronise with your project&

Any board that allows you to filter out recruiter postings is good in my book. Many claim they do but very few actually successfully do that.

I never understood why the UK didn't let Hong Kong declare independence. They could have then choosen their own protector to keep China away if the UK was too scared to do so.

In the end it's a judgment call but to quote you from this page: "Science has to be its main part of mechanics, rather than some subpart". This is a fair reason to reject DF. This is a fair reason to reject DQ (or do you disa

It's a game you like, fine. Which part of it is based on science? But, your list - your (interpretation of) rules. You know and I know that if it was democratic KSP would be at the top and DP would be nowhere. And at the same time you

I tried hello fresh back when they were promoting it aggressively. The only good thing about it were the neat recipe booklets. I actually kept them and made the meals again later. Everything else was bad. The produce quality was worse than

Modern RAM access time is not deterministic either. Certainly not on the modern desktop.
