At least for me, the printer is never "done", but it isn't in the "I just need to tweak the blah blah setting every time" sense. Rather, there's just always something to make better even if the current solution

I think Blender has been one of the few pieces of software that has followed me since my early teens without me ever feeling like it went into a bad direction and managing to keep improving without changing its behavior just for the sake of

I fully expect a decent number of people in favor of this to, without a shred of irony, whine about wanting a free market whenever environmental regulations are in the news again.

It's been a failure from both sides, attack on expertise and education from regressive elements, media abusing 'experts say' to produce all sorts of clickbait, experts choosing political/PR/convenience over honesty&

I think it really depends on how 'poisoned' the person is. I can totally believe that my politically-disconnected parents would consider being published in WaPo or NYT to be a strong sign of reliability. It helps that headlines th

For the average person, being published in WaPo may still be sufficient, but this is a tech related article being discussed on a site full of people who have a much better than average understanding of tech. Just like how a physicist isn&#x

With the amount of moderation that post seemed to be taking, I fully expected it to be killed quickly. Was pretty surprised it stayed up.

America is not drowning in unnecessary regulations, it's just struggling to accept that the rest of the world is recovering from the various atrocities of the past few hundred years, from which America remained relatively isolated due

It's like how you can't really help but automatically read text you look at in a language you know well. It's very hard to control, over the years I've worked on reigning in my negative thinking, but every once in a whil

Why are you, in one post, talking about how you will never stop pirating, while in this thread you're calling for executions for that very action? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45236861 > IlikeKitties 2 hours

I think that's a somewhat unfair framing of the issue, since it isn't a lack of effort from teachers, but rather the pressures from higher levels towards increasing test scores. LLMs don't really change that. There's als

I feel like it's a mix of both, depending on how familiar thungs are. It's probably much easier for someone in tech to try moving to a new tool for no real reason than it is for them to learn a bit of CAD and a bit of electronics

Not at all. Salaries aren't just a function of talent availability, they're also a function of capital availability.

As far as I can tell, you get restricted from buying new games/activating codes, but they don't take away your existing library (besides the one you chargeback'd).

Hmm going to wait and see how this plays out, maybe it's time to look at alternatives, assuming that my custom domain email isn't somehow locked to them.

I almost never use my protonmail to send emails, just reading, mostly on phone too. Has been fine so far.

That was the PR line used to trick immigrants into initially supporting the cause, it's become pretty obvious with the sheer glee on social media over all immigrants being harassed and open questioning of the immigration status of anyo

As others have mentioned, what evidence of risk is there between a normal game purchased on Steam, versus an adult game, purchased on Steam? Steam has a specific return policy that it applies everywhere, the games don't show up on card

This would crush fields that can't afford to pay so much, but also have a very small global pool of highly skilled talent to pull from. Certain areas of academia for example (specializations that are very close to tech, such that anyon

I think Vulkan adoption was hurt by how much more complicated it was to use efficiently early on. Considering that DX12 made it out earlier, and it took some time for Vulkan to finally relax some of its rules enough to be relatively easy to

Yeah, that's the thing. Even if the Trump presidency ends and the next guy somehow actually undoes all the political damage (unlikely), how does the country recover from the social consequences? It won't happen within a generation
