If you're hiring people like this, I don't think old code bases are your biggest problem.

This article really reinforces my choice to drop ochem in college. It's funny how deciphering assembly code seems downright mundane compared to this jargon. Like, I get how given the process you could recreate things, or you could devi

I just reread your comment, and I think you should look at other options if you don't care about noise canceling. Pretty much all NC headphones sacrifice a lot to make the NC work well, so they don't sound fantastic. As for recomm

I haven't specifically used the 700s but I have tried tons of different nc implementations. And by predictable, I mean "a milliwatt chip can record, analyze, and reproduce an inverted signal in real time". What sounds predict

Wow, I've only had the opposite experience. Having to do a gesture twice because it missed my first attempt. I've certainly never thought it was too sensitive. I wonder if there was a firmware update which tweaked that. I only got

Active noise canceling has no way to deal with complex high pitched noise, such as a baby crying. Maybe in the future someone will reach that point but for now it's only good for predictable, and especially low frequency, noise.

They're similar, but I'd say the noise cancelation is a bit better on the sonys. I also prefer the tuning on the sonys, but that's a matter of taste. (I don't own a pair of qc35, but I did swap with a friend for a plane

So as best I understand it, this has 1 niche advantage over typical exe/msi/uwp. It makes it more straightforward to create a generic application, which could then easily be "branded" by customers and then resold as thei

Damn socialists trying to feed the hungry. Next they'll be trying to shelter the poor, or heal the sick. In the richest country on earth, how can the government possibly afford to take care of its own citizens? /s

I think the main pain point is towards front end appearance/interactions. Js as a language has gotten more ergonomic, but it's been Turing complete forever. As a practical matter, the pain comes when you say "I want to align

What makes a meeting bad? Is it getting off-topic, non productive, that sort of thing? If so, wouldn't it make more sense to re-orient the group than to stop it? Stopping a meeting seems like a massive waste of resources, especially wh

Pretty sure the op was asking for a citation specifically about aws nodes. Should be simple enough to take a test workload on Intel vs amd nodes and measure things (besides "safety" which is too nebulous to measure). Consumer chip

Sure but that statistic is always measured as oil + natural gas + additives + other hydrocarbons. If you can find a source for crude oil extraction, not production, the US would almost certainly not be #1.

Ender's Game, by Orson Scott Card. The movie didn't even come close to doing it justice, the book presents so many cool problems and solutions that it just failed to convey. The book is phenomenal for sparking out of the box think
