Not OP, but RTO forces geographic centralization and reduces mobility of their employees. If you can work remotely then you have a much larger pool. And I think that opening the door to remote work made employees realize that there was some

That’s amazing! I’d love to see it. Looking at a map, the road doesn’t look too long so we could hunt for it, but if you see this could you describe how to find the specific tree?

Part of the component model is codegen to build object structures in each language so that you can pass by reference objects that have an agreed upon shape. Yes they each have their own linear memory, that’s one of the advantages of compone

I’d be the first to speak out against climate change, but I’m not sure I understand how co2 is relevant? The current ambient co2 in the world ranges around 400-500 ppm. It can easily get into the thousands indoors and that doesn’t impact bi

Here in Oregon we have a lot of them, but it never gets old seeing them! We usually see at least a couple on our way to the coast from Portland. Earlier this week, my wife and I saw a mating pair fly high over this field by our house and sp

Why can’t the stolen coins be sold? If they can’t then what’s the point in stealing them?

As I understand it, the software surrounding and managing the wallets is always what’s compromised, right? So it’s really the exchanges are the only place that the money is being lost, because the protocol itself is sound.

I’m glad you’ve gotten relief, and really sorry you tried all those other things first. Did you happen to try a latex mattress? They seem “foamy” but they are much more like spring mattresses than they are like memory foam. Basically the mo

Or you buy an Apple TV, that’s priced appropriately with its capabilities and doesn’t thieve everything from your network and your house.

Inference isn’t that expensive. A single junior dev costs orders of magnitude more than the amount of inference I use. Companies in growth mode don’t have to make money, it’s a land grab right now. But the expense is largely in the R and D.

I’m a little shocked at how much negativity there is around LLMs among developers. It’s a new tool that requires some learning, and it’s sometimes not so great, but if you’ve used an IDE with real coding assistance built in (eg. VS Code in

Why in the world would you want a car?? They are horrible to maintain, difficult to operate, expensive, smell bad, and are slower than horses! -somebody salty about automobiles, circa 1900.

The law of thermodynamics you’re referring to is in a closed system. In this case, energy is being introduced by the burning gasoline pushing the pistons, and as a byproduct of that, exhaust gases are vented at a certain speed and volume. T

Google’s entire business is your personal data. I’d much rather my browsing info be sent to some small website for local analysis for their own purposes vs. hoovered up by the largest data broker in the world and aggregated with everything

I’m talking about the UI of the media browser part, not the video playback. I’m direct playing and the video is perfect.

I think it's great that it's free and open source so it's available to as many people as possible. I don't really care about the free part though. If I could pay for Jellyfin and it would be better, I would happily do i

Having placeholders is part of what I’m talking about when I say lag, and jank is about dropping frames so that things do not appear smoothly animated. Not everyone is as sensitive to jank or they’re ok with it, but if you use something tha

Thanks for the detailed reply, I’ll look through my configuration and see if I can find where the issues are with the file watching. You’re right, many of them are likely because I have to use Infuse, due to the native Apple TV client being

Jellyfin is pretty good, and I've been using it in place of Plex for the last few years. However, I feel like there are some underlying limitations that I just can't get past: 1. the UI jank. The thumbnail tiles are slow to load

This is a really simplistic view. It’s not just policy. In Texas, the vast majority of land is privately owned (only 2% is public land), so zoning is the only thing preventing buildout. Most of the geography is flat, there are huge expanses

Are you familiar with how disk brakes on a car operate? They’re essentially a hydraulic piston clamping the brake pads against the rotor. When you let off the brake pedal, the pressure is removed, but there’s not a “retraction” of any kind.

Yeah but there’s 2 people in there, and 180 people in the rest of the plane. Isn’t the volume of air relative to the amount of people breathing it relevant as well?

I think we’re a couple years out max from Peak Developer and a lot of the growth / entry level roles will start getting taken over by the experienced devs who can adapt to coordinating a set of AI agents to do the actual coding and tes

I had this same observation. My guess is because Tauri uses WebGtk and Linux doesn’t really have a “native webview” so it’s kinda shipping the whole thing? The startup time seems like Tauri’s a non-starter for a lot of apps if you want them

Hmm, I didn’t hear about this! What about that lifetime Bruno thing that was $9? I’m pretty sure I bought that. Is that just nothing now or what does that get me?

What’s the slang about? The OP doesn’t seem to be using any slang or colloquialisms. I thought it was funny but I don’t think I fully got the joke.

Why not have a little lipo battery or battery bank with the rpi, and have it charge/run off that? Make it like a little UPS where the rpi shuts down if it gets too low. Then you don’t have to wait 7 seconds for it to boot unless you ha

Very interesting! Learned a lot about color space and how it applies to subpixels, glad I watched this! Gameplay wise, I think it should be a bigger game board and there should be accounting for the speed of the snake through each subpixel
