I was in a job I absolutely hated up until not that long ago. Initially I was very happy with it - as a developer, I loved the fact that there were no calls lasting hours filled with made-up acronyms and the usual "we should", &qu

Well... This [1] kinda answers it. Mind you, it is in the process of evolving into new products and markets. As I said a few days ago, I'm not sure what is next but somehow I'm gravitating towards IoT and embedded devices. [1] ht

I was never sold on VR. AR on the other hand is something I see huge potential in and I'd happily use on daily basis. That said, the only appealing option I've seen so far were the now defunct Intel, then Focal, then ultimately ki

Melisearch is another really good one. To be honest, I'm also working on something kind of related in my spare time but by the looks of it, I'm another 4-5 months away from having a fully operational alpha version to open source.

Given the prices of e-ink displays in general, this is not too bad. Still outrageous though.

Here's another one for you: Mary Maxwell Gates(Bill Gates' mom) is the largest shareholder in Pfizer and is personally lobbying governments to buy the Pfizer vaccine, even though she died almost 30 years ago.

Two major reasons: costs to build and maintain and manpower needed. Both are practically impossible to come by.

Forgive my cynicism but this isn't even scratching the surface of the problem(s). The narrative of the blog post makes it sound like a biblical win against an intergalactic army but in reality the main problems still persist: While soc

This is, hands down, the coolest way to advertise jobs. Genius!

The US has a very diversified economy, which certainly limits the damages. There are countries which rely almost entirely on tourism for instance - Spain, Italy, Portugal, Croatia, Greece, they were all severely affected. I am more pointing

I live in a country which is similar standards to Russia in that regard(say hi to the origin of your alphabet), so it's definitely not from a privileged position. Yeah, I make magnitudes above the average but that hasn't always be

I'm pretty sure the events surrounding COVID has undone most of that progress(assuming there's any left at this point). Our survival as a species is incredibly fragile and even more so with social media facilitating propaganda and

Well we have two worlds running in parallel as we stand: Most of North America, Europe and certain parts of Asia and the rest of the world. A large portion of what I refereed to "the rest of the world" is as distant from us as the

I know this is supposed to mock the metaverse-thing. And the first time I heard about the metaverse, my reaction was: "what a colossal pile of dog shit". My opinion hasn't changed even the slightest. Like why? What sort of sa

CI/CD's must be stupid simple to work with and that's their entire purpose: you should not waste time with clicking and scrolling and dealing with custom setups. Even Jenkins, which is dog shit and I've had to use in the

I'm curious to find out where this would be available. I spent about two years in an ISP provider and any service you wanted to add that involved telecom services required a million and one licenses and government permissions, most of

I am not sure how I feel about this. JetBrains either get things very right or very wrong. At this point I feel like there a pattern: Their desktop applications(IDEs) are usually great. However, my experience with their server-side solution

I completely agree with this. I am considering an ultra-wide monitor(the only thing really missing from my home setup at this point) but even at a 1920x1080 on all my monitors, 80 characters occupy at most 25-30% of my entire screen. The re

One of the people I admired immensely in F1. He truly went after his dreams and achieved them. His wife get a lot less credit than she deserves because she also had a lot to do with his success. Rest in peace, legend!

I don't think we've reached the pinnacle just yet. If anything, I feel like we've only scratched the surface. But I can see a transition on the horizon and I'm not fully sure what that would be. I feel like it's yet

This is actually a pretty good idea. I speak 2 languages besides English so this covers one of them completely. Sure, it doesn't cover Cyrillic, which is the second most frequently used but even so, this would completely eliminate the

Mine is resin based(elegoo mars pro). The parts are nowhere nearly as strong as pla for instance and the build size is significantly smaller but the amount of detail you can get is astonishing plus there is no time penalty for complex parts
