Hilarious is what it is. I find it endearing and reminds me of my youth idolizing historical figures and playing role playing games and lord of the rings assembling the team. My jaded middle-aged self though puts it in the category of LLM m

Yup. I read the second version twice and am still not sure what the ask is and what to do. Prime example of not having a clear ask and showing too much hubris behind some polite questions. "Have you ever considered making a better prod

I did my masters in the UK and PhD in Germany. The difference in quality graduates (in engineering) is staggering. The first two semesters are more challenging than the 4 years Meng.

in my experience it (announcing to people in your network that you are job hunting) is precisely what you should be doing. Some might even point you to the next opportunity. I understand your concern though and have personally only shared i

You are correct, but an RC circuit is part of the amplifier circuit and you can do a lot to improve the signal to noise ratio (SNR) depending on frequencies/signals are trying to amplify versus the ones you want to filter out.

Any alternatives to recommend?

I'm in the market for some wifi access points. If Ubiquiti is not so great can you name some alternatives?

not the accuser but I have seen even AI to drop its usage of the emdash... thankfully! (Whats wrong with brackets?)

Very interesting perspective, thanks for sharing. No I am not a bot, I'm for reals. My two cents with the EU tinted glasses. I completely agree with failures of governance that you mention. Especially the plane/train cost comparis

oh god yes... but I am carrying my self chosen surveillance device with me every single time I enter a car.

So I am expecting the AI bubble to burst (or at least deflate) some time soon. Perhaps this puts me I an specific camp, I am not sure. But this whole "AI will replace X jobs" does not phase me, not because I think AI is useless. O

As a "gun nut of tech", I have resolved this issue for myself with two computing categories for hardware I use: Hardware-I-trust and Hardware-someone-else-trusts. Sometimes these share information, and have to interact. Usually I

and here I am reading an interaction and thinking you two are saying exactly the same thing. Language be, what it is I guess: open to interpretation.

This is what has always made it hard for me to go beyond the Newtonian physics. The only thing I know and use daily that relies on relativity is GPS and having looked into the equations on how it accounts for this it seemed to me that I cou

Thank you for the nice read. I empathize with many of your points, we are standing on the shoulders of giants. I refute on the claim around "our greatest societal ills". I think there is a difference between confident communicatio

Corn, albeit not an animal has been pretty successful in terms of number of individuals. Their bi-pedal underlings have cleared swathes of land and take meticulous care of their well-being so they can bask in the sun undisturbed.

Is that a big concern? I've been pretty happy with my vagus nerve functionality until now... although I have not given it much thought to be fair.

Hopefully you made it out of it, but I have to say that was a hilarious read! As not a stranger to pseudorandom sleep cycles I can relate.

Yes. But also infection with a malicious package. I don't want anybody to be hacked and also don't want everybody to be hacked at the same time. If I am managing multiple software components with different levels of reliability re

Having skimmed the article I understand the title. While I agree on some level I wholly disagree on another: to me "dependency cooldown" is a way to automate something as old as time: the late-adopter-laggard. Although I am a tech

What do you mean by "IPR focussed design"? IPR = Intellectial Property Rights? So they should keep making designs but not compete with their customers?

Interesting. I can only speak for FRAports Terminal A where the Lufthansa flights go and they use the new bag scanners where I just need to get rid of my coat and belt to be scanned by the infamous "Nacktscanner". The first time

it has been such a godsend flying out of Frankfurt where they have the new scanners and you don't have to empty out your bag anymore. So much smoother. Then I fly back and get all annoyed at the other airports. I was told Oslo airport

I went through several emotions reading this article. It has to be said, that I probably have the habit of most people: skim the title, skip to the comments, skim the article, skip back to the comments, and maybe if I am intrigued enough (a
