Make sure it's something you really want to do since it may consume all of your free-time for weeks or months at a time. Don't be me.. Midway through my career I was given a golden opportunity to side-gig consult for a project tha

Remmina is what you're looking for. I used it daily to RDP into Windows machines from Fedora and the latency/performance/features are actually either on-par or slightly better than Windows Remote Desktop. Prior, I had been us

I've seen this from both the developer and consumer side of things. The legacy design of Unity encouraged truly terrible code designs which translate into sub-optimal performance on modern hardware. Performance and tooling have histori

Most of what you mention seems to be loosely related to fintech. There's nothing wrong with that but it doesn't match your previous comparison to the internet. If phrased in reverse, what would you lose if you lost the Internet? N

It's just simple luck, not cheating. I had a similar experience, at a Microsoft interview no less, a decade+ ago. I had been playing around with AI Pathfinding algorithms for a game I was working on. The first interviewer tries to toss

Thanks for this, this is a good data point for NATO action. It's a little different in that it seems more accidental than intentional though.

The (exaggerated) scenario is less of an attack but thought exercise on where the line for taking action lies. I went with belligerent actions over attack or small land grabs without casualties. Escalation from NATO let's say is "

That was brilliant and very nearly what I was saying. The threshold for actual nuclear war is so high that a belligerent actor could theoretically push quite far by exploiting the natural tendency of the adversary to not desire mutual destr

I'm genuinely curious at what point a bully threatening you with MAD can be stopped if you value the existence of your own civilization? Say Russian conquers all of Ukraine and moves troops to the Polish border and parks some tanks a b

Yes? I have an unfortunate, strange, condition where I can get extremely warm/hot just by thinking about something exciting or novel. This isn't "turning red", as there are no external changes. I can sit down to listen t

I completely agree. My game dev past in Massively Multiplayer Online Games directly led to work at FANG in cloud engineering. Work on optimizations, storage, comms speed, and stateless flows led to large improvements in product performance.

Well, you just burst our family bubble. By random chance I clicked your last link and saw... the painting my wife has had hanging prominently, horizontally, for years and neither of us questioned that it was an original work by a local arti

The good, the interface is cleaner in many areas including the settings, snip, and other built-in apps. Start menu is fine, better support for features that have been around forever (multiple desktops). Better support for WSL2. Better looki

Pop_OS looks interesting! Quick note to the system76 guys, I think the Digital Audio Workstation section seems off. Audacity is a great tool but it has more in common with a basic SoundRecorder app than LogicPro or GarageBand. It's mor

I think the fact that they were able to use the attackers own exploit to get onto their dev machine and see the EN/IN keyboard layout was a major flag (along with the targets of the malware). Having been in this field myself at one tim

For what it's worth, Isaac Asimov's Foundation series was written this way with the Foundation or the concept of it being an "organization" spanning hundreds of years. It might provide some useful ways to handle this tho

I completely disagree. In fact, my friend and I used .NET our last Startup Weekend event and were the only team to build a complete product against teams using Python/Ruby/NodeJs. You can in fact write C#/ASP.NET in a rapid h

When I say mobility, I'm referring to mobility within the game. Within a non-VR shooter I can, in one continuous motion, run into and knockdown a guard, shoot his friend, jump through a window, run across a room, leap over a crate, par

I don't think it's been mentioned enough that VR doesn't fundamentally bring anything new to the -gameplay- table. There are some 'experiences' that are better, like piloting games since they play to the "sit h

There's a correlation but I don't think it's the one drawn from the article (programming language). I think that you have to consider the background of the person who would typically opt for these languages to start a new bus

Great idea! I have to admit the UI reminded me of what I do presently -- VSCode + notes in a folder in Markdown. I'll take it for a test-drive and see how it compares to VSCode + git. If it speeds things up, I'll be a buyer! Bear
