Is that backed by any evidence? Taking 2 hours to perform a 1 hour task makes you half as productive. You are exchanging that for the uncertain prospect that it will be worth it in the long run. I think it's more likely that if you tak

They don't care about your menstrual cycle. Advertisers want to predict your purchase pattern to better target you. So, what you said just reinforces the idea that using menstrual cycle data for placing ads is useful. Essentially using

Naive question, can't you just have a player count alongside the best score and leave when that reaches 0?

I host my email with tutanota. It's worse than gmails client, but I don't really care that much. I'm happy that I don't depend on Google for that and I have my own domain.

Nostalgia is a powerful thing :) I have that for Windows 95 and 98. During the XP era I was mostly using Linux, though I did use xp for gaming every now and then.

If there is a bug, then the experiment needs to be called off and a new one constructed. You shouldn't change anything else during the execution of the experiment.

Hard to say, it could actually increased emissions. As when the timings of things don't align correctly it's common to cause an increase of resource usage. Eg. people travelling less optimal route, extra commutes back and to the a

That's why alerts can have different priority levels. So, less serious issues can be addressed during normal working hours (eg. disk is 80% full). Maybe LLMs will figure out the correct P level for something like disk usage, but it

It feels to me that using LLM to classify alerts as noisy is just adding risk instead of fixing the root cause of the problem. If an alert is known to be noisy and have appeared on slack before (which is how the LLM would figure out it'

But then it'd be putting all eggs in the Linux pc basket, wouldn't it? I think they point was that more heterogeneity would make this not be a problem. If all your potatoes are the same potato it only takes one bad blight epidemic

The language is expressive enough to have a good string library. It has string.h instead because of historical reasons. When it was introduced the requirements for a string library were very different from today's.

You just gave an example. There are loads of classified information out there. Though Disney will probably not be able to sue you for just reading the data necessarily, doing so is a big liability if you're a competitor or work for a c

If you don't want to use Google to the extent of blocking all their domains, maybe it's time to change browsers? Why would you use chrome if you don't trust Google at all? The main concern here is Google giving itself unfair
