It’s annoying how many people talk about “web3” like it will inevitably become just as popular as the internet is today. The internet is the ultimate outlier. Web3 might just as easily end up as a Tamagotchi or Virtual Boy or Adventure Game

Living in Seattle with a similar always green weather. It was quite scary when we had our big heatwave last year and a lot of the plants around my house died even if I watered them.

The city was especially off. It was literally just a city. I realize this would be an absurd complaint just a few years ago

I just have never had this as a problem having worked on many APIs at many companies. Usually we decide what we want to work on and the frontend/full stack can read the documentation / chat with the backend engineers if it’s not c

Also I’m pretty sure Musk himself wrote on public Twitter that he would trim the fat once he owns the company ..

I watched that multiple times after delivering a big feature I had to crunch on late last year. Of course my reward was a”meets expectations “ modest raise.

Nice token gesture but that makes just as much sense as having a National sick day. What am I going to time when I get sick?

Impressive. I could only do a 2 hour commute for a few months before moving. And this was mainly by rail which was quite empty in the evening

Even that is assuming the public transit has enough capacity and safety. I remember the Seattle E-line before the pandemic for example. Packed in like sardines so you have to stand and maybe be able to hold on to something. Almost always so

It was a traveling dream. You could do necessary PC things on it if you really needed to but it was painfully slow so you wouldn’t just spend time playing with it. It was absolutely tiny for it’s time so it fit in my backpack easily. It was

I mean yeah they obviously don’t hire 50% of applicants. Even if they’re pre-filtered to people who think Dan Luu is a cool guy (which I do)

Very happy with the Escape. I thought I’d miss the 4WD but honestly the one time I drive to the mountains or something is usually in May-September and FWD is perfectly fine for that in the PNW. The 40 mile range is amazing for a mild climat

I don’t see why it couldn’t - but the end result might be incoherent to humans. It could easily combine or extrapolate on random things to create “art”

Many SEA countries are effectively third world. It’s no wonder they have to go to Thailand for western-ish level medical care. The locals will not have the option at all so it’s not really a fair comparison

I can’t imagine the book and minor TV appearances circuit pays as well as Google. Unless you mean he’s doing it to be a minor annoying “celebrity” for a few minutes

I was shocked to see that most of the “web3” “games/worlds” that are hyped and have a billion dollar valuation have a daily active user count around 1000. Completely abysmal and any sane studio would kill off such a title immediately a

How long were you on and what made you go off it? Four months in I’m feeling better now but I don’t think I want to take it forever

It’s not really a efficient heat sink since it’s just a big slab with no fins to actually cool itself down. Now it’ll heat up the whole chassis and then stay hot. It also doesn’t look like the metal piece on top of the CPU is seriously conn

> a self-discoverable REST API I’ve been writing web services for over a decade and this just seems like a cute idea that is actually almost never at all useful in the real world.

I enjoy a good Americano but I just buy the same beans that I’ve found to make a good cup for years and I can make a delicious and easy cup faster than a drip in the morning. It doesn’t have to be obnoxious or difficult. I also do enjoy din

Classic social media reality skew . Most kids have a crappy laptop or maybe a base console. Maybe a few rich kids have a gaming room. In general those are for the 30-40 year olds who now have the disposable income to splurge on their hobby

My anxiety was “manageable” for most of my life but this year it boiled over. I would get something like panic attacks multiple times a day with a racing heart and was constantly distracted by catastrophic thinking the whole day so I knew I

20mg is a high starting dose. I’m on 10mg for anxiety (and maybe depression) and it has worked very well. The first few weeks were fairly physically bad but since then I have noticed minimal side effects. It sounds like you are a “zombie” r
