As an engineer I've certainly never seen it in my past 3 jobs. In software that's especially the case, as your performance metrics aren't based on time spent but rather on your level of work completed.

You're not in the legal clear if your reported hours overlap between the two companies.

I was thinking hydrogen peroxide, since it seeps into the ground just like water and decays into water. Also I imagine it's much cheaper than liquid nitrogen.

Humans and their ancestors were strong enough that anything that evolved alongside them adapted to avoid humans or risk extinction. I'm not sure if human evolution from a simple mammal could survive alongside dinosaurs long enough to r

Then why were they so frequent and massive prior to stricter regulations?

For some perspective, even the oldest network enabled addons sold for the GB/GBC did the same exact thing (such as the official Mobile Game Boy Adapter). It's more like, without doing it this way, it's not even possible.

The problem is that an unregulated free-market economy guarantees monopolies to form, which ironically allows them to use tactics that prevent fair competition. This is why mixed-economies are most efficient, as they take advantage of capit

Really makes you wonder what kind of utopia we'd be in if politicians acted fully in good faith.

That's pretty common for cartridge based games. Want your gameboy to support RTC? Add an RTC chip on the cartridge. Need more RAM or persistent memory? Slap more in the cartridge. This is no different.

Event Sourcing can be as consistent as any other data source. For a hotel booking company, I'd have each hotel be a unique aggregate stream, and with expected version assertion, a ReserveRoom Command for a room would only succeed if t

Or I can just do whatever is most productive for my workflow and not have to worry about RAM, not worry about managing tabs, not worry about what windows I left open that I might or might not need later, worry about the ram consumption of d

The good news is that with so many folks coming in, the state has become quite purple. I wouldn't be surprised to see it become blue in the next decade. California did the same thing in the 90s.

The biggest issue is that people underestimate how incredibly niche cryptocurrencies actually are. They solve one single issue, the double spending problem on truly anonymous transactions. For the vast majority of people, this isn't a

Plenty of free services like Google Colab exist for Tensorflow/Pytorch and offer gpu/tpu. I pay just $10 a month to train my models at my leisure on it, and the free version is great if you're doing shorter training runs.

Isn't this a very basic function of a kanban board?

Mind you this only exacerbates already dysfunctional stomachs. A normal healthy person can drink large amounts of soda without causing acid reflux.

You'd think Apple would be doing their best to help with this, considering they market their "neural engine" pretty heavily.

That's why I mentioned simpler intelligence like that in insects, where recognizing a predator is still a form of intelligence, even if it's rather crude and very analogous to current ML capabilities.

Check out Convolutional Neural Networks. They learn from example images, progressively improving as you train it more, and you can see that the deeper the level, the more abstract the recognition becomes, going from simple shapes and edges

But that's what he's asking, why is it okay to avoid alienating people at the cost of the truth?

The issue is never general doxxing, it's targeted attacks.

Ironically computers are as close to magic as you can think of. It's literally a mechanical creature that you control with written spells.

That's only true for the city proper. Half hour outside east Austin is silly cheap in comparison. If you're a commuter it's extremely affordable.

Half hour outside east Austin is super cheap, no idea what you're talking about. No one is in "for a world of hurt" unless they insist on living close to downtown.

I think it comes down to the comfort level of the worker. I remember when our production environment went down. The CTO was sitting with me just watching and I had no problem with it since he was completely supportive, wasn't trying to

That fact that it can happen at all when a time-proven solution has already existed for centuries is telling. I don't know why people think having irreversible transactions where no recourse, even legal, can force a reversal of the tra

Is it just me or does 2 tablespoons of canola oil a day seem like a crazy amount for a mouse to consume? Mice usually eat around 5g of food per day, yet 2Tbsp of canola oil is 27g. Worse yet, the control had a normal diet instead of an alte

The only difference between this and an attack is that the purpose was altruistic. It's one thing to shift to new/updated infrastructure, it's another to manipulate blockchain transactions. We just have to hope that Vitalik o

Unless you're doing awaits in a tight loop of thousands/millions of calls, the overhead of the state machine is almost non-existent, which leads to the next question, what are you doing that requires await in a tight loop of that

I can bullshit for hours but answering even a few technical problems in a well written fashion is exhausting work.
