I was going to ask if all Blender developers were in Europe but was able to answer my own question from https://www.blender.org/development/top-27-committers-2022/ It does appear that the majority of top contribut

Is the €134k/mo figure including all corporate sponsors? Approximating that as one developer salary per month then what they've continued to accomplish is still very impressive.

Thanks. She's doing much better since the surgery thankfully. Getting through the roughest parts (after the surreal part) help to make us stronger and all that.

Agreed, I have two MacBook Pros from 2010 and 2011 which have been chugging along great since then; daily drivers up until 2020, then stuck on a shelf without any power conditioning for two years. Dusted them both off and put back in servic

My three-year-old had a 4-inch teratoma removed from (well, with) one ovary earlier this year. Without having any idea about the prevalence of teratomas in humans historically, I wonder: is it scarier to have symptoms and not know what it i

They're so simple that it's hard to believe they just work . I'm almost surprised that browser vendors haven't pushed the functionality out of existence just because, in favor of ever more complicated solutions. Similar

Roughly 7-8 years ago I was going to be traveling and didn't have a suitable machine to take with me so I went online and found an Acer CB3 for $100 new– I think the retail then was double that, maybe a little more. I bought two, one f

On iOS, I don't think the term MIDI is mentioned anywhere in app. Unless you recalled it from the app store description then the Import button seems quite mysterious; average users might mistake it for something to interpret and extrac

On macOS 13.5, entering the search shows no obvious way to end/return. However I just pressed Enter and that took me back, which was unexpected. So it works, just oddly mapped I think. On iOS the search+cancel is just fine. For the sec

Some suggestions and features based on personal preference, so I'm putting in a separate comment. - Put an "Import MIDI file" button in the Imported Files section - Star or bookmark icon, pick one for favorites. Current

The pricing model is confusing at first and not very clear until you start trying to use the app (tried the macOS version for now). The App Store description does not mention the subscription and what features it unlocks, and in the app it

I for one was tickled the first time I paid an NYC parking ticket online and had to add it to my cart, as if they might upsell me on some other more serious violation. Act now before it's too late!

That’s why you assign all of them random names which are recorded in a separate BitWarden store. That one only opens with a password which is “YUBIKEY”.

What was awful about it? It's been a while since setting up but my config uses it to pluck the important bits from my Org library into SQLite as I edit; it works well enough and wasn't difficult to set up or understand. Admittedly

I would have to dig through the old plan details again but they had a pretty similar example to our situation where they estimated you would owe essentially the entire bill minus some copay amounts, i.e. $100k - $300, which is funny but dep

Underrated technique. I’ve used it similarly to generate scripts and it works great when used with care (error checking generally must happen at a different stage).

I wish this wasn't such a commonly shared opinion. Too defeatist, in my view. Craigslist is spartan, sure, but there are less extreme examples such as McMaster-Carr. They've had the same design more or less since 2010 at least and

I loved my previous HMO because I was in a union and the (huge) premium was mostly covered by the company however it's really never that simple. Changing jobs and insurance companies means all of a sudden all of my previous doctors are

Yes however the quality varies wildly. In my two previous jobs, the HMO options were $100/mo and $400/mo respectively for a family (2 adults + unlimited dependents). In my partner's current position, the HMO option is $2000&#

Many variables indeed but it's an interesting thought to consider. In my experience friends and relatives with autism are hard askers and those with diagnosed ADHD/OCD/related are all guessers without exception.

I completely agree that such a thing should not be US-only. There would need to be a clear distinction between one-gov't backdoor and voluntary regulatory certification , because ultimately the goal would be for other countries to f

Framed like that, it sounds terrible. However, consider this: [1] This discussion is about a federal agency providing certification of products essentially in the form of a stamp (on a device, website, etc.). Nothing is stopping a vendor

The OEM could be allowed to choose their recertification period, perhaps with slight differences in requirements. Perhaps even different options offered by company size. For example 1-5 employee companies might get a "no recertificatio

Possibly weird idea: federal firmware escrow. The OEM gets to put a stamp on their product after submitting firmware source/keys to the FCC. When the OEM either declares the product not supported or provides no updates for X length o

Off topic but damn, Media Temple. Brings back deep nostalgia for the pre-and-becoming Web 2.0 era of the web. I still have a red iPod shuffle and some other miscellaneous swag from participating in their beta programs.
