If I'm reading it right, it's more the acceptance of loss of what you had and more appreciation for what age brings you now. Also the start of removing things from your life, rather than constantly adding new things. To bring it

3 desktop class machines, one acting as a server. 3 laptops, one is a chromebook. 8 RPi's doing PiHole, OctoPrint and part of my temp/humidity sensor network. It gets fuzzy with the Pi's because I tend to load them up with

They don't have any. We're bleeding talent and destroying our pipeline for more. We don't pay well to begin with, so asking people to relocate for a worse quality of life is just ... mind boggling.

That's brutal. We're on the other side of it right now trying to get exec and HR to actually commit to something so we can hire remote. We had multiple good people in the pipeline who we had to pass on, because they won't

One of mine was similar. I got sold on a 100% remote role that turned into 9-5, 5 days a week in an office 350km away from where I live. I was really clear up front that relocation was not an option. I'm not sure if they ignored me,

My older stuff got turned into TV PCs. I pair them up with a Logitech K400 wireless keyboard and just run Chrome or Firefox on them. Each tab is a different streaming service, plex or youtube. I could use Chromecast or FireTV, but they f

That's awesome, I did the same project when I was working for Hortonworks. I had 8 nodes and it was really limited by memory. I got a few MR jobs running and some benchmarks, but not a great cluster overall.

Exactly. It doesn't even require the operation of the image stabilization for the damage to happen. The damage happens when it reaches that magic frequency where the components break.

It isn't just iPhone, and it can happen on any motorcycle regardless of the engine size or power. The OIS in my Pixel 4a is destroyed from using a mount for less than an hour.

I don't see Salesforce going away anytime soon. I was a solution architect for a few startups and we lived in SF. The difference between a good experience with SF and a bad one was mostly due to the customization.

I have one as well, and my experience with BT speakers is odd: It works fine in VLC, but not in Chromium or any of the pre-installed games.

A "perfect" ES node has 64 gig of memory. 32 to heap and 32 for off heap as well as 8-12 cores for executing queries. Heap is mostly used for internal operations and the inverted index stuff (fielddata), off-heap was used for the

My 1800X did the same thing. I was able to RMA it and get a replacement that worked fine. It's only the early chips that had this issue.

My direct trading account at my (very) old bank is also saying it's having technical difficulties today. It sounds like display issues, not trade execution issues though.

Purely anecdotal, but same story here. D3 only, vegetarian. I can't think of a single point in my life where I didn't get sick (cold/flu), if I was surrounded by sick people. This year, 8 sick people in my house and extended

The esp8266/nodemcu stuff is super cheap to get into. AliExpress has the boards for $2-3 each and I bought a bunch of sensors (temp/humidity, accelerometer, magnetometer) for around the same price. For less than $100 you can hav

Network effect, and entrenched enemy are an issue here. You'd have to build something much better than Facebook to start eating away at that monster and disrupt the network. I loved Google+ and Mastodon but they're not 10x bette

I have a cluster at home, and that's about what I'm seeing. Good wall warts and good power cables reduces the chances of it happening, but doesn't bring it to zero.

The first one was pretty good, but that second one left no real impression. It felt like he was using more clever humour in the first, and just went full on shock value for the second.

Nah, he's doing fine now. I figure this company will just miss out on a bunch of good people because of the attitude. As a whole, they're not known for a good corporate culture or even retaining people long term. The more I thin

I'm not sure this is an normal response to these kinds of things, but maybe some context will help: A customer of mine asks for a recommendation on people who could do the job. I gave him a list of names, of which the top recommendat

I have a friend in his early 60's that I recommended for a Hadoop job recently, and he was excluded due to age, despite being very qualified for the role. It happens, and I've seen it :(
