A 12 hour one with stops every four hours. Reset the timer when you fill the feeder in the morning. If this was an interview question I would reject the job. You don't seem worth working with.

That's part of why tech products disappoint. The MO is to reduce a complex problem to a simple base case (our robot can vacuum an entire house provided you have no stairs or furniture), half ass solving the complexities, and market you

You've made a stunning point. There's no analog way to make things happen more than once a day. The logic is clear and irrefutable. Well done.

Classic case of letting perfect be the enemy of good. Try harder next time, jj999. DNA would be significantly harder to fake over 35 years when you're still walking around with your own DNA. Is it perfect? No, but it's a lot more

Downvoting this pabulum isn't enough. You're right, in an abstract HN bullshit sense. It does not need to be this complicated. Nevertheless it is, for reasons that are much more complicated than setting up a Mastodon instance. You

Because there's literally nothing in it for me to help this guy unlock the stunning achievement of understanding why and in what manner computer systems communicate. This is intern level information, trivial to learn.

Take your perfectionism to its conclusion. Assume your current work isn't good enough to submit or publish. Spend time addressing real or imagined defects. Current work becomes late work. Consequences ensue. Realize that the consequenc

I once earned a 12.5% revenue stake as a freelancer in lieu of cash for designing and building a niche adult website. It wound up being worth mid-six figures before the site shut down. Not a huge payday but not terrible for the early oughts
