IIRC, it's also why the leap day was set to Feb 29th in the first place. At the time (romans?) the year started March 1st. In case someone was wondering why in the world someone said we should add a day to the second month of the year.

What's the upside? The only thing this is going to produce is people fighting because of where they're from. There is plenty to disagree in the tech world as it is to introduce other axes of divergence.

I score 6 out of 6. Meanwhile, I have a wife and two kids, live in a nice house. I did well at school. I have no problem landing jobs that pay really well. I have lots of friends. I have many hobbies I like. I can play music decently well.

Ok so this argues that alchemists would destroy the value of gold by creating loads of it, and that's what's going to happen to AI artists. A bit of a stretch IMO, but whatever. So instead what they should have done is to buy tons

I just showed Toy Story to my kids. It looked really bad. Mostly textures and lighting. I wonder if artificial grain would actually make it look better. Like when the game Splinter Cell was released, there weee two additional ‘views’ simula

It looks like the OP is thinking that AI causing errors in spreadsheets is going to make the whole economy collapse. When tools break, people stop using them before they sink the ship down. If AI is that terrible at spreadsheet, people will

Alternatively, you can give him critical hyper risky tasks, that he will necessarily fail at with catastrophic consequences, and get him fired for that. I realize that these sound like scheming, but this kind of shit actually works. The oth

One idea is to give him a special feature to build that you make up, that's neither critical to operations nor interfering much with everything else that you guys are doing. Make it something big. Something where he might get a team of

For me the main thing is to get people pumped from the first invite. Like don’t write: ‘hey I am doing this thing for my bday on Friday, wanna come?’ But come up with something like: ´Ok people, I just read in a recent Nasa report that the

A little bit of overthinking in there, no? I mean this is kind of stressing me out that I’ve not been doing this properly. It feels like the person writing this is constently rating the quality of his/her parties, like she’s being judg

Fwiw I don’t have astigmatism and hate dark mode with a passion. imo, the main reason why people like dark mode is that it makes them feel like hackers. Back in the day of crt monitors, sure, but now, it doesn’t make any sense.

I like the translation of the WTFPL as « la license rien a branler » If you don’t know the idiom, you should check it out, it’s both particularly vulgar and very commonly used.

To those who "meh" it: Board games suffer a lot from lack of progression and narrative compared to video games. Take Mario 1, there are so many different worlds, and enemies, it's a constant wow. In comparison, board games ar

This looks like a hipster toy. It’s possible that this could have value in journalism or law enforcement. Just make it look the part. Make it black and put some decent lens on it.

I would like to rephrase that question slightly: Since the raspberry came out, we can produce pocket-sized computers with touch screens and cameras fairly easily. These are ALMOST smartphones. So why can't we have a raspberry based sma
