So, why is that insulator actually dangling?

Ironically, working remotely actually made many office workers more productive, but I cannot recall where I've read that. Maybe lack of management interruptions is not as bad as they say.

I think, the second level management is the unluckiest of them all. It's impossible to micromanage several lower level managers at the same time. Whoever tries, fails or burns out.

by dschuetz 6y ago
It's about control. Many managers like to micromanage everything and everybody very much, but that does not work very well remotely. They want to make sure, or at least to be able to make sure, that their workers, well, work. Many are

I don't understand why Germany's socialist ministers don't accept the concept of universal basic income. It's baffling to me. https://www.t-online.de/nachrichten/deutschland/id_88448378/

I'm sure now that Amazon Prime Video won't ever get a decent UI, instead the current will remain horrible, but resilient at least.

Was there any doubt that this would happen? I mean, it's always the same game: naïve developers with an outstanding product, huge company willing to buy-out technology while lying through their teeth making promises. It's Edison s

You just don't start a fight without a plan. The legend of David and Goliath says that you need to be clever to take on an oppressive opponent that is far more powerful than yourself. Apple forgot that as it became the Goliath.

The article is a good read. I was left with even more questions: How come that most documentaries explain the vibrant and undulating colors as some sort of communication, when in actuality there is no evidence that they can observe colors?

Oh, and to make the whole matter more ridiculous, I have been told repeatedly "maybe studying is not your thing?" and after a while I got it and answered "That's it! Studying on your courses in your university is n

I was not sure how to say "having the right mind". I didn't say the right brain , because that is what determines "innate ability". But the brain has plasticity, so then the mind must also be flexible and can be pr

My frustration comes from the sentiment that supposedly everyone with a can-do attitude can learn Quantum Mechanics (which is addmitedly quite easy to grasp after you have had years and years in studies of the whole physics curricula) It

"Everyone can learn physics" is a flat out lie to make other people feel better. Without a proper tutorium and insufferable fits of frustration it's only possible to learn such complex subjects on your own you if have the rig

I saw "Intel" and I laughed out loud. Wow. The nerve Apple has trying to sell Intel-Macs after announcing the change to ARM!

And now I understand why Jim Keller left Intel. It's not technology that is lacking at Intel, it's the management.

It seems that they do it for fun and giggles, but all the users are interested in, ultimately, is "Can it run macOS software? No? Stop wasting my time."

Shame. I guess Apple either better includes a physical cover soon, or bury their always-on FaceID plans.

by dschuetz 6y ago
No, it's shocking that Apple doesn't seem to understand that their assurances do not even remotely touch what users of physical cover have in mind. A LED showing that the webcam is active means that it's too late. It doesn&#x
