Pessimist may have been a wrong word. Maybe something along the lines of anxiety that can make you miserable in today's safe environment but could make you think more about potential problems and prepare for them ahead of time. Like &q

In case of some failure - like not achieving your goal, losing somebody close, miscommunication with other people etc. - do you also stay happy? And what about anger? Or boredom? Do you keep smile on your face when fighting with package com

It wouldn't be just placebo though. Clearly separating time when you want to be productive vs playing around is an old and effective trick. Placebo apps that make your Internet faster are as old as the Internet itself though. I am guil

Until we go fully digital this makes no sense. Brains develop in a specific way. We become more wise during our lifetime but we keep getting worse at learning. It's not as easy as "let's fix dying neurons". Society witho

I want to see something made by the model when we're done training it. And if you are not doing ML with all those user inputs, I'm extremely disappointed.

I went with raspberry pi + LCD. Even though there are many LCD options I recommend going with their official pi touch display, it just works without headaches. I did use their official enclosure, but it doesn't really seem to be well

Be careful with that solution, you then have to have a separate backup strategy for that USB data.

Really weird that nobody in the thread is pointing out that this is basically a website that says "give me your photos, specifically from protests, which have details that you want to keep private". It doesn't matter that it

For anyone interested in this kind of ponderings I strongly recommend Consciousness Explained by Daniel Dennett. It may be the best book I've ever read.

Debatable. Personally I would not try to do a project that uses wifi on a cell battery. And if you don't need wifi then you have much better options that use low current not only while sleeping (e.g. nrf series) But my main point which

From coin cell battery you can power a microcontroller that is sleeping most of the time, not a real-time operating system.

The whole idea behind these trolls is that they repeat stuff until it becomes popular opinion. It's hard to stay objective, we tend to agree with majority (Asch cconformity experiments would be an example but this is way more subtle an

I don't understand it. Your refrigerator breaks, something goes wrong with your sink, how forcing shops to close is helping? I could understand maybe shops that are selling clothes, but so many things depend on each other. You need wor

That's basically how all technological and science progress works. You take a few existing dots and connect them together. Connecting dots between fields that are further apart is less common and often has more impact.

My 2019 15" mbpro makes quite a bit of noise on login screen with nothing connected to it. It's not a made up issue. USB 2.0 devices disconnect randomly which is a no-go for musicians. Touch bar freezes. The list goes on. I'd
