It’s an interesting idea, but I’m not convinced it’s a good one. Office managers (or any kind of managers, really) are hired to remove a class of problems, so other people can focus on their job. This is outsourcing bits and pieces of your

It really depends on personal preferences. I find it best to hover the wrists while typing and rest while idle. In such case no palm rest paired with reasonably low profile works best.

This can’t be right. Tape decks with a separate record head allow you to listen to the currently recorded track and quickly switch between the track and source feed. Apart from the hiss, the difference in quality is rather subtle for most p

It really does work that way. It’s a perfect game if you have ~25 minutes to kill. It’s fairly complex, but doesn’t really require player to keep much information between runs. I hate going back to a game after a few weeks only to discover

You could create a non-intelligent chess playing program that cheats. It’s not about the scratchpad. It’s trying to answer a question if a language model, given an opportunity, could circumvent the rules over failing the task.

Big part of the problem is how big of a hurdle it is to actually send a robot to Mars. I imagine that once we have a cheap and reliable platform to reach the surface, we could iterate the robots much faster. If you had a budget for one huma

It’s possible for reasonable arguments to exist that support either side of the pet transactionality dilemma. What often happens is that people have their own personal biases that cause them to pick a side. But would you consider a group of

I'm not in sales, but I imagine the customer attention is a limited resource in this scenario. If you create a fast, cheap and reliable way to generate leads, you'll saturate the market very fast. It's not really an edge if e

The demo shows nine separate sprites, even though C64 supports showing only eight. It starts off by separating them vertically, which is a common trick, but then moves them all to the same raster lines and overlapping locations, which is mu

It's not that there's anything wrong with this in particular. It's just that the general market seems much more optimistic about AI impact, than the AI companies themselves.
