For the employees at Figma, their shot at cashing out evaporated when the Adobe deal was called off. I know people who were ready to leave Github in the past, but their manager told them to wait a bit, there’s a big acquisition coming and t

One datapoint supporting “not economically”: There was a plant in Missouri to convert turkey offal into crude oil using leftovers from a Butterball plant. It’s been shuttered and the parent company filed for chapter 11. https://e

Do you run this? I’m curious what your experience (and others) are with it. I have a Pop!OS box and it was a little work to set up. I was mostly pleased with the result, though. Steam experimental Proton had a wide range of my games libra

I’ve done a fair amount of car work. The analogy makes sense for me when I think about workspace habits. There was a time where I’d grab a wrench and then leave it wherever when I was done turning that one bolt. It might have been on the gr

As a human, I’m not even sure what the correct answer should be. The pedantically correct response is to point out that you’re asking which of two identical things is different. As some commenters here point out, error correcting assumption

Doesn't the second kind apply to AI in military drones? Companies like OpenAI talking about AI safety is a nice way of numbing us to AI used in actual killing machines. https://www.defensenews.com/unmanned/2023&#x2

As a web developer I also have to tell you that my industry has gotten more cavalier about using resources. Unless your benchmark is browsing sites that you know have not changed in 15 years, the heaviness you feel could be from development

Oh that’s interesting. Yeah 青 is used in Chinese as another word for green. I don’t know that it has any connotations of blue, but I did grow up in the US, so perhaps there’s nuance to that character I’m unaware of, or the character slightl
