   I dislike how manufacturers have standardized on 24" 1080p and 27" 1440p. I want cheap 24" 4k monitors dammit!

   I keep on oscillating between a multi monitor setup and a single laptop screen. I found out that as a web developer, multi monitor setup is a must because you ideally want 1 screen dedicated just for the web site you are working on. But I u

   Guess it sucks for us who weren't taught about concepts like career capital. We have to grind more to make up for lost time.

   I find it hard to do 10 minutes. I think even something as short as 5 minutes is still beneficial.

    I was strongly against coding outside work. But now I spend some after hours coding just to keep the spark going. Main job is working in legacy code. It is fine most times but sometimes it is just soul crushing to work on such a restrictive

    I think the problem of acquiring good writing skills is 1) getting feedback requires commitment for other people 2) It's pretty subjective

    I remember Python being hyped for being a good beginner language and a good web programming language(Django, Flask). It does seem that Python has settled into a niche as one of the mainstream data science languages.

    I bought PocketCasts early on and my account got grandfathered into a lifetime subscription. Also have no plans of switching.

    As an owner of the 12 Pro, I can concur that the battery life of the 12 line is not that great compared to the 13/14.

    At least WhatsApp can be used in iOS. Can iMessage be used in Android? No.

    Agreed. I won't buy a x86 laptop until it has the same performance/watt ratio as the Apple Silicon laptops

    Which makes you wonder why GPU companies don't proactively give you control over these parameters.

    Same thing happened to my country. In the 90's, the US was a lot more welcoming. But because a lot of tourists stayed, it is a lot harder now to get a tourist visa.

    Isn't this what the thunderbolt enclosures with GPUs are trying to do?

    We need more cases for horizontally oriented motherboards. I was also thinking of a case where it can handle the cooling of a deshrouded GPU. Perhaps we should delegate the cooling options to the user without having to void warranty.
