When considering future of tech, its valuable to consider there are at least two well-trodden paths: 1. semi-linear extrapolation of existing tech and progression (maturing tech) 2. new paradigms approaching the problem from a new angle or

Interesting. There's a conclusion chain around that I'll have to dig up. Thanks for the sanity check.

Serious question: does anyone still trust supermicro? I have them on my mental blacklist since the reveal they were injecting backdoors into their hardware. I also dont trust shell games under the label of "changing suppliers" whe

Ive gotten starkly different reports between the two, including active rainfall vs not, weather alerts vs zero data. Plus the widget in iOS doesnt actively update and you have to effectively open the weather app or something else to repoll.

Is there an equivalent jailbreak for the other Oculus devices? I have a CV1 I would love to rehabilitate.

To look at the bigger picture here, this is really the longtail of trust lost in companies due to excessive layoffs and clear consistent messaging that the employee is just a head that can roll when its convenient and cost effective. The re

It seems to read similar to a leveraged buyout. Easier to do things when the company doesnt have to show its books. Also interesting is that these are market areas that AWS is starting to expand into.

If this is true, I'm just going to delete Triplebyte and all things associated with it. If the practice becomes, "wait until theyve forgotten about it then try again." I dont trust them, and wont again.

Have we become so exhausted by New Battery news that we don't even post the checklist? Where's the beef.

Coming from this direction, especially for deep work, I think the corporate choices of offices have failed so spectacularly that the current Immovable Wall of people who refuse to go off remote is one sign of inevitable fallout from chronic

This is basically Goodhart's law (quote from Marilyn Strathern's generalization). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodhart%27s_law > When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure

I personally need to feel the progress on whatever my hobby is at the moment. Currently, i've been working on a side project for months now, but i remember it took me years to get started. The essence of how i did start was to take a w

Would be nice to have more details on how they constructed their models, and how they captured variance between each model seed. Otherwise this is just fluff, like "cool story bro".

I'm the same way with blocking. That's good insight, and mostly aligns with my experience. In the past it was mostly js players and similar api calls via scraping/injection, which are more prone to changing their selectors an

Thanks for this! <3 immediately useful contributions. I'm curious, how often do you have to update the selectors? context: I've maintained various website parsers over the years, and it seems to be a constant struggle, dependin

I've taken this approach as well. Every so often I'll want/need something from Prime (like a show season comes out), and I can wait for it to be fully released, sub for a month, then cancel. Most packages now take about a wee

Just to emphasize this. Closed the site when I saw oauth only. ... and this is after having a similar idea recently, and being really curious.

Expert to me implies long experience across a variety of challenges. Long-term editors leaving sounds like another challenge, but it doesn't invalidate the expert status.

Most YT videos have transcriptions generated for them, maybe instead of wading through the video itself, you can skim the transcript?

I definitely resonate with the guilt aspect. The emotions stirred by work, in general, have been a struggle for me. Emotional work is one of the most productive ways I've found to mitigate and reduce the effects of diminished motivatio

Just a continuation of the cat-in-washing-machine metaphor. Yowl instead of meow, where a real example would be learning how to have a hard, yet productive, conversation with your manager about issues which are or could lead to burnout.

This happened to me multiple times across multiple jobs. The first time, I was laid off with severance--a small mercy. The second time, I was run into the ground repeatedly as I tried to manage it. That time, I was dropkicked by my manager

Not too much, but I've also changed my diet, and been affected by some of the "normal" pandemic body weight changes. I'm winding up to do a water weight shed soon so I'll know better then. Overall though, no obvious

My personal trainer strongly recommended daily dose of creatine (~5m), but it has also had noticeable effects in daily energy (especially during the pandemic when mostly chair-bound). Otherwise I suppliment fish oil (or algae), vitamin D (5
