Kudos to this guy. Managing a blog with traffic and an active community is a much bigger challenge than most would think. I ran a blog from 2005 until 2013, with some real strong activity on posting and community building between 2008 and 2

Let's be honest: you're hurting both but the latter will find other ways to hold the information in a way which may not be bound to a corporation led by a lying weasel. u/spez needs to be removed as CEO.

There is definitely a potential that the study design offered a measurement that wasn’t useful in determining how well these drugs do or do not work. But, in your example, you measured the length of time you put into playing the piano, some

I could roll my own or use an Android device that I rooted I suppose. The problem there is I have to use inferior hardware (IMO) and I won’t be able to as easily interoperate with my preferred laptop hardware and software. 30 years ago I ha

They have actively thwarted attempts by the likes of Facebook and Google to track me. Facebook got totally fucked by iOS14+ and I love it. While I don’t trust any of them, I’ve gone with the lesser of the two evils in this regard. YMMV.

They’re saying there is a 16 GPU min for GCP. I don’t see that at all. https://cloud.google.com/compute/gpus-pricing Am I misunderstanding the GCP pricing or how this analysis was done?

They explicitly call this out in the article, but, how is what he’s doing any different than what we always were told reality TV was doing or gameshows do? This is worlds better than casinos, sports betting, or any other form of gambling, I

Same. Although having a 4-digit ID even 20+ years ago was something of an oddity based on my interactions with local Slashdot meetups at the time.

I deleted Apollo and the official Reddit app (which I used to post posts) and I'm done. I had been a user for ~12 years and had 150K+ comment karma. They fucked up and now I'll spend more time on here and /., is my guess. Unl

I had a 13" MBP with the last Intel chips and no whatever bar. I got at most 4 hours of battery life during the work day. I now have a 2022 M2 13" and I can go 10+ hours w/o a charge doing normal work shit which generally inc

I was on the road yesterday and stopped at a McDonald's that offers you a free value meal if you submit a survey and give them top ratings. Considering it took 28 minutes to get through the drive-thru, my drinks were watered down from

Because this person is conservative and cherry-picking those who are impartial and far-left. Notice how they do not point out any paradigms where the person is clearly conservative; I have a feeling they exist, just like the examples they c

There are ~4MM teachers in the US. 117B / 4MM is around $30K. Will +$1,500 ($125) over 20 years help them make ends meet? How about $3,000 ($250/month) over a decade? Maybe it will! But, maybe just maybe, you should be complaining

Fair enough; if you’re talking about random machines Linux light be installed on. But! I believe System76 should ship their laptops with tools and/or settings and/or configs for other mainline distributions that maximize the exper

And this continues to be why Linux suffers with the mass market. I ran Linux solely from 1997 to 2004 on the desktop and switched back because it was such a pain in the ass to manage. Every time I go back, it just isn’t catching up to the m

I recently built a PiPDP11 kit and had all the stuff to solder so I figured why not?! For me, the soldering was done in 10-15 mins on the GDTM and the new challenge is making the faceplate for the enclosure. Something nerdy to learn and do.

I loved when dependencies were manual jobs on local machines that some recently fired dev had been running for 3 years but IT had already wiped their machine. Deserved to be fired for that one but man did it suck to deal with.
