My hotter take is that this is the same problem as IR blasters, and relative to the old normal -- when device makers like LG were specifically advertising how awesome their built-in DAC was -- this whole thing could be solved in a much more

Various interviews. Ideally putting various other things back together thereafter. Conversely, tearing apart a bunch of things, around my family's house -- invasive vines, old worn-down structures, an extensive amount of brush, etc. As

Funny, one of mine also involves trees -- but is mostly outdoor cleanup. The kind that involves decades' worth of it, thanks to what I'll just say is a lot of maintenance that wasn't done over a long time. There's an ext

Just as an FYI, your "link to a project you're proud of" and "link to a piece of code you wrote" questions use different formats, with the latter triggering a submit if you attempt to add line breaks. Hopefully it d

I know the OP was a mixup, but related question... do you only reach back out if it's for an interview? I had an experience last year myself where I never heard anything at all. Which was unfortunate, bc this place actually fascinated

Who do you think foreshadowed masculine energy coming back to tech? GB, with the Box 3 Gavin Belson Signature Edition? Or Russ Hanneman, with... everything? (Or was it Jared, with Russ being right about him?)

I had a similar reaction myself -- I'm an escaped fundamentalist and don't personally have the same convictions about stuff like this, but even if it's on a level that amuses me a little, there's something that feels j

I've been tinkering on crawlers to doomscroll job boards for me, along with a half-formed hybrid of a CRM and Tinder for swiping through the various results and then tracking them. I eventually want this to be usable enough to share
