How does the person in charge of this decision justify that kind of thing to themselves?

I thought the speed of the new Doom was too low, too, but I think the bigger problem is the number of screen- and movement-locking events. Every time you pick up a key or do a finisher move, you have to wait 1-5 seconds for an animation to

I think I agree with you for the most part. I’ve got a similar setup - linux at home with an iPhone in my pocket. I’ve broken a linux installation enough times that I know well enough that I’d eventually do the same to my phone if I ran and

Sure, but they’re addressing tech workers. I’m sure they’re trying to dissuade people from taking jobs at places like Facebook/Google etc.

In my experience that’s true. But once you code in it consistently for some appreciable amount of time, you start to think in ways that the compiler will be happy with and that make sense from a safety standpoint. It’s getting to that point

Right? How does one even consider posing food as a counterpoint to the claim that someone shouldn’t be making 2.3 million in one year?

What do you mean by “pollutive proof of work?” Are you talking about its environmental impact?

But the issue isn’t bandwidth, really, is it? I would think the ping would be the killing factor. Do they have a plan for that? Server farms no more than 20ms away from anywhere in the US?

I remember reading that article at some point in the past. Pretty ridiculous, having a customer lie to themselves. I can’t remember what site that was, either.

Are you familiar with the rat park experiment? You’re making claims directly supported by its findings. One of the most interesting was that happy rats who had pleasant quarters and social interaction would choose not to take drugs (morphin

The “only visible in home country” clause does seem to support TikTok’s claim that they were doing it for the hidden users benefit. It’s hard to say whether or not the policy has a net positive or negative effect. If you browse the recommen

Well, I certainly knew about the filesystem crate before, but never thought to see if it offered this functionality. Thanks for this.

In fairness, that could be what he’s talking about - the illusion among consumers that bottled watered is purer than tap. But with most brands marketing as coming from some mountain spring, who’s really at fault?

Same thing for me. Went from 150 down to 175 down, upload unchanged. I’m only paying $40, though, so I’m not sure I’d upgrade to $60 fiber if I had the option. Might be worth doing on principle, considering how spotty the connection can be

I’d probably find some open source project to dedicate myself to. Maybe work towards sustainability in some shape or form, or at the very least invest in it. But it’s tough to ignore money.
