This makes me wonder if the older generations with tech careers should feel less pressured by the newer generations as it seems there is actually a huge drop in knowledge - but this may be superficial knowledge that's easily learned? D

That would honestly be amazing and probably very feasible with the new chipsets. Imagine having a desktop setup and an "empty" laptop case with slide in dock. Everything in one place. Same system for the iPad. Will probably never

Thanks! This picture is so much better - really shows the scale and the detail. My intuitions and my knowledge of statistics hints that there's really no reason much, much older somewhat advanced "societies" couldn't hav

It should be mandatory to notify people if they've been exploited when updating, also give better info on this incident no? A normal smaller tech company is expected to create an advanced description of what happened. Apple doesn'

"Apple hasn't issued a fix for this particular vulnerability"..."new defenses are coming with iOS 15, which will likely come out next month". That's completely insane, isn't it? Have Apple just given up, o

Really? That's dystopian, but in a cool way. A little like Amazons own internet sharing network or what it was. It's terrible though. We really live in a panopticon now. Any links?

Thanks, but i've used both of for an extended amount of time and Shadow is just as good, and honestly is more stable in games in my opinion - of course it's a bonus that you can host yourself in Parsec but the tech seems like it&#

What's special about Parsec compared to competitors like Shadow.tech that seems just as good? (if not actually a bit better - i think personally after trying both) Both are impressive but the tech must be somewhat standard no? Also Sha

Lomborg is not a climate scientist! Besides that he's been funded by the oil industry. No one agrees with him besides industry people. Don't post disinformation.

Exactly, i find mental work close to impossible a few days after quitting caffeine. I can do social stuff to an extend and get manual labor stuff done, but not anything requiring initiative and self discipline.

It's just not very fullfiling to become an icon after you die, or after another company steals your idea or whatever. We are social beings, we want some amount of payoff weather in be cultural, social or monetary capital. Lots of brill

True, i can also get OCD'ey vibes, myself included, i think it comes with mindset one fosters when looking at a screen for long. Same thing can also happen when doing Music or Digital Art, you can fell into a perfectionism loop, where

I don't get this. Just checked and about 30 percent of women have it when they give birth in Scandinavia - that's a number that keeps rising after that - so lets assume that 50 percent of the population has this at 50. If this is

The problem is that an old money power elite halts this progress. Big oil and polluting industries hold ginormous wealth and hire thousands of lawyers, PR people, astroturfing groups etc. to stunt progress. I'm sure this will eventuall

I'm stealing those analogies. They're great in the context of techno-fixes. The exponentiality of the changes are hard to grasp, but people grasp cancer and that both luck, very skilled doctors, and future tech is needed to treat

Exactly. Examples always trumps some convoluted explanation. Good docs are like: "this library make you do things like this, this or this, as easy as [show code snippet 1, 2, 3]". Also a big list of examples should be way easier t
