   Netflix and Apple seem to have no problem making a good client. We won’t have HBO here until 2026. The Austrian national broadcaster have a decent if not brilliant player. Even the built in dnla player works great. Amazon are ridiculous and

   Amazon don’t even properly maintain their Prime Video app for TVs. It’s so bad on my good LG TV that I gave up waiting three seconds for button presses to register while trying to start watching their billion dollar show they kept urging me

   I wonder why more employers don't want to hire lots of people for 25/30 hours a week. Seems like you get the most valuable hours out of them.

    Yeah that’s why I mentioned a galaxy. Thanks, all!

    Sorry if this is a stupid question. If proton decay does not happen, but a proton is say in motion through a galaxy, where does the energy for its gravitational waves come from? Its momentum and therefore it slows down?

    Looking forward to paying for software I enjoy! I’m very optimistic Bluesky is going to be the counter example to the enshitification story.

    Ignoring everything else, C-Lion1 has a bandwidth if 144 Tbit/sec How much can a constellation offer say between many points in both countries? Seems unlikely it could get close but I would like to know. https://en.m.wikiped

    Not sure how it’s graded but it is very rare to meet an Austrian who can’t speak basic English and kids in the cities these days are often practically bilingual!

    Nice. Even the tiniest rule, I strongly suspect, would throw off pattern matching. “Every second move, swap the name of the piece you move to the last piece you moved.”

    You are not wrong on average. Last four years I'm lucky enough to just work with one friend and we are following best practices that would put many a big corp to shame. Prior to that I worked at a smallish company with 80 devs or so, 5

    I wonder what the minimal amount of change qualifies as novel? "Chess but white and black swap their knights" for example?

    > Unconstrained, C++ becomes legacy quite quickly (relative to simpler languages) I wholeheartedly agree with this. However, in my experience (30+ years now) adding those constraints is not really a big deal. Some can be automated; good

    One big reason why it's large is because it was once the capital of an empire. Why it grew back from being small due to WW2 up to the 90s is, my educated guess, the geography combined with the standard of living. Right up against the p

    Exactly. In fact the municipal housing is excellent by world standards and not just something for those in the lowest income bracket. There were some scandals recently about slum landlords, but the point is they were caught and already legi

    Right there are some restrictions but people seem to have the weird idea that you can't get fired without cause or redundancy. If the employer does it correctly they can essentially get rid of anyone, those restrictions notwithstanding
