At some point it started using a lot of jargon instead of just laying it down clearly. Reads a little bit like LinkedInspeak.

My grandpa had 74 years with grandma until she passed away early this year and even at 99 the feeling of loss is all the same.

I feel like the modern version of this would have the neighbourhood largely intact, but humans killed via miniature drones. Drives home the point how few anticipated that batteries would advance so much.

This clip is what introduced me to this story. This adaptation is heavily modified, but I think it adds to the whole thing. Soviet artists had an uncanny talent for making everything that's unsettling even more so.

To quote an obscure reference from my country: Regarding linoleum let's agree to disagree. I for one appreciate it. It is still present in my region to an extent. This year my relative bought an apartment where the kitchen floor is mad

Hailing from Germany's eastern neighbor, where part of the industry went to and where energy is even more expensive, I call BS. The main reason Germany was so hooked on gas wasn't because Hans Müller needed to run his Bosch washer

That is my experience as well. I write tests by hand because they really still can't do it properly. And I think I know why - neither do most people.

It bothers me that you have to explicitly state this to the agent. Makes me think what else is missing from that file which also needs to be explicitly stated, but I don't know what don't know. "Do a good job"?

The heat is spread out to a much larger volume. Heat engines are most efficient when the temperature difference between the hot and cold side is high, so you need to keep it that way to extract energy. A nuclear power plant achieves this by

This makes me think: apparently we can't just make agents write secure code, so there's a separate step to scan for vulnerabilities. What else could be currently lumped into the "coding" task, done poorly and perhaps als

Friendly reminder that at the 6th week, when the heartbeat is detectable, the body is still undecided whether it will keep the fetus. It's not an indicator of anything - just something we're emotionally attached to as humans. 20-2

I think I'll stick to my area of expertise - replacing "non-replaceable" batteries. Amazing ROI using a $14 soldering iron.

Solar panels are increasingly being oriented east or west instead of south, as while it reduces overall yield, it maximises power when it's needed the most - during morning and evening peaks. I don't have numbers, but I suspect it

Is that a realistic scenario anytime soon? The highest estimate of jobs long term removed by automation that I've seen is around 200 million. The current labour shortage just in China is already around half of that. Layoffs in tech not
